Anyone else feel the same? What can be done about it? What good alternatives? The internet suggests trade jobs, but how can there be time for other things?

I’m not sure there is any economy proof job. There’s a massive shortage of medical staff in my country. Not because there aren’t enough medics or potential medics, but because wages and conditions have been suppressed and worsened. It’s not an attractive career, and many people who pursue it for the right reasons (helping others) soon get disillusioned and leave.
What i meant by economy proof is that medical know how is attatched to inelastic demand and critical services.
Societies can last a very very long time without say… A hospitality industry. Not quite so with the medical industry, despite the ongoing fuckery of underpaying medical professionals.
Even if you might end up constantly broke; it is good to have a skill one can retreat to that offers a reliable schedule and has constant openings and you’ll be making SOME money.
As you said; there is a shortage of workers in the field.
