    I am happy to have a job that pays an average wage. I love what I specifically do in the lab, but management don't care about staff or patients.
    The good thingsMost of the general lab staff are lovely caring people.
    The challengesNo respect from management. Profits above people. Management expect over-time to be done for free. No staff replacement and ongoing staff reduction and stressful work-loads.
