Well, there's that, but typically you don't just find those situations

I don't like dealing with the general public... but I seem to do ok with people. I am definately multi-tasking on a daily basis. I don't like the same thing everyday.. I like having somethign with variety upon what I'm doing.. not just monotonous work. I'm not really totally sure what would make me happy at this point. I could deal with not liking work as much if the money was there for me to feel more comfortable.
Paramedic? Firefighter? Definitely less than 6 more years of academics. You probably won't see too much of the same thing everyday and it definitely won't be boring. If you go career, I hear they make good money + benefits + pension!

I have 3 generations of firefighters in my family. The pay is so-so at first but after a few years the pay and benefits are excellent. The hours are weird (a lot of places do 24 on 48 off) but you really do get to see just about everything - good and bad.

The 'weird' hours also allow you to do side jobs - my uncle built houses on off days, and he and my cousin also have a dock piling business now.

A friend of mine is a nurse and making some sweet sweet cash. He's been working through a temp agency for the last year or so, basically working when he wants to and making almost twice what he would if he worked for a single hospital. I swear if I had the stomach for it, I'd be an RN/RPN in a heartbeat.
