I'm a Medical Laboratory Scientist (bachelor's degree, nationally certified, and current on my certificate maintenance continuing education requirements) and it has taken 16 years for me to crack 100k/year. I started at 38k. There are not enough MLS out there to staff all the labs in the US. Labs are scrambling to figure out how to continue providing patient care in the face of crippling staffing shortages and yet pay is still shit.

That's insane. They charge a fucking fortune for lab tests. Who is keeping all the money?

Can't be 100% sure so just to be safe let's beat the entire insurance industry and see what comes out of their pockets.

Absolutely insane. I've been workingfor my current company doing customer service for just over 5 years and I am making just shy of $50k/year. 16 years to claw your way to 100k after all the school you surely went through... Boggles my fucking mind. We all deserve better but this is just wrong.
