Everybody has its own type of work. That person loved software testing at first but then realized that she is unfit for the job. I think in looking for a job, don't look for the income that you will get. I know that is important but make sure that the job you are entering is a job that you love to do. That way, you won't get tired of doing it.

Some people are suited towards this sort of job and some aren't. Here's a really basic list of the traits you will probably want to have if you wish to pursue this sort of job:

* Have good attention to detail
* Good troubleshooting abilities
* Willingness to use trial and error for every possible outcome
* Thorough, methodical and diligent
* Ability to read and follow instructions to the letter
