@KaiserKitty @CrunkLord420 I'm curious, did you do bioinformatics because of the Sseth cancer stream? It seems that every bioinformaticist I've bumped into was introduced to the field because of him.

But like I said the industries that are genuinely struggling and need new hires/apprentices lack viable education pathways and don't pay enough for a 20-something who needs a decent paycheck to afford modern rent. My mother suggested I get into repairing sewing machines as there's only one guy in my area that does it full time; however, the guy's 70 and hates me, is partially deaf, and only makes 35k a year...
