yeah but if the profession paid it wouldn't be hard to fill.  Because they 
can take any old vagrant off the street and give them $2.00 hr to do histo 
work after giving them on the job train, the position she is leaving will 
soon be filled.  He is probably pissed because three weeks isn't long enough 
to train the wino on the corner to do her job.  That is why it should be 
required to have a degree before becoming a histotech.  If a degree was 
required pay would be increased and in the process generate more interest in 
the job.
