I am a Pest Management Professional (PMP), which is not some spray jockey spraying baseboards all day long. I oversee an entire hospital the size of 2 million sq. ft., including both the interior and exterior of the property on which totals buildings that number to 83. Everything that comes into the facility such as homegrown fruits, I have to have it discarded outside, since, as we know, fruit flies originate from them and can migrate to anywhere they please in a hospital, the worst places being in the Operating Room or in patient rooms where they have trachs and wounds. My eye has to be on everything that's going on and to correct bad practices, such as tossing leftovers in uncovered trash cans. I'm not well liked, but someone's got to monitor the place.
I've been doing my job for 27 years and am considering retirement soon, but as it is now, I sorta want to hold off, make a few extra dollars, because I have plans to travel Europe a bit before I give up the ghost. Oh, I could still do some travelling if I retire now, but I want to do it in a bit more style. And to think I used to hitchhike everywhere I went when I was younger, no matter the distance.
