neat job.
i wanted to do stuff like that when i was a little girl, always fascinated me and still kinda does. of course, i don't have the attention span for the school it would require.
good luck. if the job pays more than you're making now, i would take it. you never know, you could end up really enjoying it.

The point of getting a good education is never having to take a job you don't like.
If you take a job solely for the money, you will not be happy. Unless you are forced to by the shitty state of the economy and being able to pay your rent on time starts to provide sufficient joy.

I'm surprised you don't need to be an MD for something like this.
It's something you'll get used to. Plenty of medical students go through anatomy and cut up corpses. Plenty of doctors watch people die in emergency rooms day in and day out. You'll get used to it.
Although it's not really comparable, I have sacrificed plenty of lab rats for science. It's never fun killing something, but at the end of the day, its a job and nothing more.

Seriously man...
I just recently found myself in a situation where I had the choice between two jobs that were both moral and financial opposites.
I decided to go the route that offered me about five dollars more an hour, but was morally bankrupt. I only lasted through 2 days of training before I decided to go back to the other job and see if they would still give me a chance.
Thankfully, being the business with much higher moral standards, they were fully willing to still give me a shot.
I took a five dollar pay cut and lost dental insurance, but I am feeling WAAAAY better about myself and about life with this job. I see much more room for growth here, and their business ethics are unparalleled... especially for the restaurant industry.
So... the point I was making here... is that sanity is more important than money, unless (as john said) it is the difference between making rent or not.

The new job will pay much more than I'm making now only because of the on-call and overtime that is available. I just talked to a friend there last night and he had 70 hours of overtime last week alone, yeah 110 hours for the week. He got called in every single day, all 7 days last week. He gets the whole next day paid off if he gets called in for a graveyard harvesting. If he is on-call and doesn't get called in, he still gets $8/hour for 10 hours. Over half of the people that work there (small staff of about 12) give up their on-call to other people. It would be a money maker, that's for sure.
My main issue is if I do take this job and quit my other one, will I regret it? Will I get depressed doing this for a living? These types of questions are running through my mind, I have to respond by tomorrow. Dunno.
