Have you ever wanted a career in fish?

I would love to, but the amount of money it would take, sustained over years while building clientele and good rep before turning a prophet is not something I have the capital for.

Definitely! When I was little, it was all I ever saw myself doing in the future. And now, I work at PetSmart as a Pet Care Specialist, so I'm about there

nothing wrong with that Alex, petsmart needs more petsmart folks

You and me both. Its good that you have an office. Cubes are brutal. Please feel bad for those in cubes at your office.

Nope I don't feel bad for them. They are programmers who make allot more money than me

I realize that my dream career is going to be very hard to achieve, however, I'm working my @$$ off in school in my science classes as well as stuffing my head with as much fish related knowledge as I can outside of the school. I also partially intern (what they allow at my age) at the zoo and aquarium during the summers and might get a paying job there this summer in addition to it. I plan on getting a full internship at the aquarium working with the native fish (if I had a choice, I'd be fine with anything though) when I'm in college to get my foot in the door and I'm already scuba certified so that's something to them as well. No matter how long it takes for me to get that job, I'm just going to let my work speak for itself and hope they see me as a worthy applicant for the position come time.

I like your determination!
