jmsvs1984 in Flushing, New York 33 months ago	There are many different types of labs that you can work in(medical,forensic, environmental, academic etc). I work for an environmental lab- it could sometimes be stressful, I stand for about 3/4 of the day, do not have to interact with clients but have to work closely with coworkers. The best thing about working in a lab is that usually there is not much variation throughout the day, you learn the tests, you do the tests. The worst thing is not enough money in labs. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (6) / No (1) Reply - Report abuse
rcal in San Jose, California 33 months ago	jmsvs1984, Thanks for posting this information, wondering if you would be willing to answer a few more ?'s. I am currently laid off from a semiconductor co here in Silicon Valley. EDD is offering tuition assistance for re-training in emerging fields. One course that appeals to me is the biotechnology technician course. If I want to persue the funding one requirement is to talk/email to persons currently in the field. Let me know if you are willing. Thanks! - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
