[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked at the Smithsonian too, not the zoo. Did you find it was difficult to move up to higher paid positions at the zoo? Do you have to pay for parking?[/quote] As a keeper there's not a ton of room for advancement. After keeper comes biologist, and after that curator. There's only a handful of those spots, and people tend to stay in those positions for 15+ years. They also come with a lot more responsibility and almost no hands-on animal work, so most keepers don't even want to do them.[/quote]
