Is that true for healthcare careers that don't have abysmal quality of life? All of the nurses I've known are working 60 hour weeks, night shifts, etc.

And get paid peanuts. And effectively they're told that they are disposable in the face of a pandemic.

Pharmacy techs work regular hours.

Good pay, low barrier to entry, pleasant. Pick two.

Not from the pharma workers I hear from in the US. But this is all anecdotal.
