Haha! I'd have to agree... I would much prefer to work with insects as clients as opposed to people. I'm not sure I'd have the tolerance to put up with slimy people on a day-to-day basis!

My current position is only temporary, however. I'm actually a graduate student studying insects to answer questions about evolutionary biology and I work as a research assistant in our entomology lab. It is certainly nice to be surrounded by insects every day, but unfortunately academia does not pay well. We'll see where the future takes me after grad school... hopefully something related to herp or insect research = )

This is yet another reason why I just love these forums. Fellow keepers who share a common passion for herps, insects, you name it. Its nice to have place where we can all talk about what we love and put all other differences aside.
