"Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid." - Jayne, Firefly

"I am like a being thrown from another planet on this dark terrestrial ball, an alien, a pilgrim among its possessors." - Thomas Carlyle

Obstacles

  • Need internship pretty much full time through school.
  • Need lots and lots of specialized lab time.
  • Jobs open to niches in particular, but apply anywhere, and apply around the world, not just in the same city.
  • Peace Corps graduate education reimbursement
  • Entry level field ecology work, low pay, long stints (how can T come along?)
