Svantaggi
- You get to know your donors... the good, the bad, and the ugly - It's easy to be made uncomfortable by comments from donors (not for the shy or faint of heart) - Pay is crap. $8.50 starting out to deal with crazy people - Potentially exposing yourself to blood-borne pathogens everyday, with every donor - Compliance (quality control) is pretty difficult and doesn't offer constructive criticism... it's rather harsh - You stand for the whole shift, even in reception, where you'd think that since you're on a computer all day, you'd be sitting for some of it - Work every other weekend - Can get extremely busy and overwhelming... tough economic times=many plasma donors
