j'accuse!
My last vacation was June 2014.
I took 1 week in October 2014 for surgery.
I put in for 1 vacation day in December 2015 but ended up coming in for a half day because of a client emergency.
My dad had a Masters in kinesiology, got laid off as a bricklayer (family profession, learned that as a kid), ended up in a government job entirely unrelated. Spent 40 years in that industry before retirement.
To be honest, I wouldn't trade my job for any other job I can think of (excluding made-up fantasy jobs like porn-star-sushi-taste-tester...and I wouldn't trade it for the latter either!)
Soon if I behave, but I still have a few rocks to smash and a basket of license plates to bang out

Graduated, went into a highly regarded public sector graduate scheme. Absolutely hated it, pay was good but working for government as a computer programmer is awful. Left to the private sector and am much happier.
If you want advice on applying for grad schemes PM me, as I used to run career days/fairs for students on how to apply

Where I live yes, the pay is higher than most of the U.K. But my definition of superb pay still probably differs to yours.
It only gets better/worse as vacation involves scheduling child care (unless you want to bring the hellions along); I'm looking forward to a quiet house, but by then I'm afraid I'll be hard of hearing and incontinent.

Maybe I'm picturing a role akin to a social worker (please correct me if I'm well off) and never thought mental health attracted great pay.
I think it's an amazing career choice btw.
I think an important part in choosing your career path is keeping these separate. You can chase one or the other, but not both. Maybe you'll end up with both if you're lucky, but you're more likely to end up with neither if both is what you chase.

If you can get on with big firm then I would defiantly go for an apprenticeship. I'm in my second year with Bae systems as a spark and they are paying for me to do my HNC and HND by the time I come out of my time in another two years I will be earning 33k+ with the opportunity too top up to an honours all payed for by the company with no student debt

Cheers. I'm enjoying it so far.
There's plenty you can do, split between working on a ward, whether that's acute illness, rehab, or organic like dementia, or out in the community visiting patients in their homes, drug and alcohol, or patients coming to your own clinic. It's surprisingly varied.

Just ripped some, how many do you need?
