I couldn't handle the isolation. My first job had me working in a basement pretty much by myself for 12 hours straight. In retrospect the job really wasn't so bad but I was there for four years and never really got used the lack of socialization. I'm now in a wet lab that, while still in a basement, has me on a standard 8 hour schedule and working with people semi-regularly. My long term plan is to pivot into healthcare because I have found that I really enjoy working with patients and take a lot of satisfaction from teaching people about their bodies/conditions.
