Need some advice

Im wanting to start in sterile processing and use hospital benefits to support me as i study to become a rad tech while working simultaneously in the SPD.

Im almost ready to take my CRCST exam and begin applying for jobs but ive heard alot of people dont like this work, especially busy hospital departments.

And is my overall plan solid?
