I'm not with PETA or any of that, but I interviewed for a technician position at a research institute that does testing on small animals, (I was contacted thru an employment agency and didn't really completely know what the job was until I got there for this interview, I was told it was in animal husbandry and that's about it) rats, mice, rabbits, guinae pigs, cats n dogs. I would just be doing care and observation of the animals, no experiments. But 95 percent of the test animals are terminal, meaning they will die at the end of the study which is usually 3-4 months long.
I just can't bring myself to work there.. the pay is incredible, and paid benefits from day one ... somethin I really need right now, a good job... but I think I care about animals a bit too much to be involved in things like that.
I aced the interview and am pretty sure I would have a job offer if I went back to sign my application. I put it off for one day and need some input.. anyone have any?
