What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
"Can I see the free benefits? Free healthcare? Who wouldn't want free healthcare?
If you go to a different position that's not a hospital, you're paying hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars, especially if you have a family. It might be okay for an individual; it's maybe a hundred or two hundred out of your pocket.
But once you get married and have a husband or wife, that's an extra body. And then if you decide you want kids, that's a couple of extra bodies. So right there, that's already racking up a good grand.
So, I know it's bad to say, but I would say the free benefits, free healthcare, that's for sure."
