I have 30 hours remaining in my Bioinformatics degree. I cannot stomach the 'pre-med grind'/cost involved in finishing the degree.

My work was generous and allowed me to turn my internship into a full-time job. Yet, everyday I am told I need to finish my degree and move away from this job by coworkers.

I get to ship on average every two weeks, it is wonderful. I have time to toy and tinker on the side.

My only fear is first for blame, then, to fire. I know if I ever was to venture off, the tone would turn from "we're so grateful to have you" to "you'll never make it in this world" in a heartbeat.
