Most of the people that I know that are doing biology became teachers, one ended up being an assistant manager at a restaurant making 40k/yr. Another one I know works for the government, they do some kind of work and she looks it over and does lots of reports. Sounds like a good job. So you have the same options as ever other LA grad, education/teaching, IT(what you are in now), sales, or going back for some advanced degree like doctor or lawyer.

The two people I know who majored in biology got jobs as lab technicians for oil refineries in the Bay Area. Good pay, for just a B.A.
