I have questions...

I'm thinking about taking a course to become a dental assistant. I just have some questions about it. Is this a good field of work? For those of you who are already doing it, do you like it? I've been looking through this reddit and I'm getting mixed vibes. I just have one shot at being able to take these courses and I want to make sure it's the right path for me. The course I'll be taking is online with externship offered. There are other things I'm interested in, but it'll be a bummer if this one doesn't work out. What else can you tell me from experience? Anything helps. Thank you!
