Reflection: This would be a job that I would like to try out, but I wouldn’t want it as my career. The reason for this is because I like focusing on the anatomy and functions of the entire body. This job does pay decently well, but I’d prefer something that requires more problem solving and thinking. This does seem like a hard job, but it lacks some other aspects that I’m looking for in a job.
