How to Become a Laser Technician
You could do a million things with your life. In fact, nearly that many things come to mind when you really think about it. You could be a crime scene cleaner, or a panda nanny (this is a real thing), a water slide tester or even a professional leech collector. But for whatever reason, you googled “How to become a laser technician?” instead.
We’re glad you did. Truly. The other jobs listed are hardly a way to make a living these days. Admittedly the panda nanny gig sounds pretty fantastic, but the pay is terrible. Also, it would be really sad when the pandas grow up and don’t need you anymore. Likewise, for being a water slide tester. They only make about $28,000 annually. That is barely incentive enough to stay in swimsuit shape year-round. In sum, the job doesn’t pay well, and it could potentially kill you—those are some serious drawbacks to consider. Leech collector is clearly out of the question (for obvious reasons) too.
TLDR: We’re really excited that you’re looking into becoming a laser technician because:
A.) There is low likelihood that the profession will kill you.
B.) The pay is great.
C.) Your clientele will neither maul you nor suck your life blood.
D.) You will learn an awesome, wholly marketable skill that doesn’t involve hurtling your body down a watery tube at 60 miles per hour (people actually go this fast, we checked).
E.) The job opportunities are huge!
The steps to avoid a panda mauling forever:
Become a laser technician. It really is that simple. There is such low probability of an animal attack in this profession it’s not enough funny. The risk is so low, in fact, that it can’t even be found on Internet search engines (trust us, we tried looking).
