Guys,
As my user name would imply, I have already made the jump. Let me just say that medicine (in my case nursing) offers tremendous job satisfaction, stable employment, and a new grad Associate Degree nurse makes Regional captain pay. Plus, if you tell your wife you are "going to have a few drinks with some people from work" what that really means is "Honey, I am going to go drinking with 20 hot chicks half my age."
