Reflection:

This job seems very difficult to join in and frankly there payment salary doesn’t quite make me happy because with all that work and learning getting and yet getting paid very little a year is really something that I wouldn’t be able to accept due to the fact that I know I will end up getting stressed out but, oh well I think some people will actually enjoy this type of career although as for me I think I will have to re-think the opportunity of even deciding of whether or not I will take this career.
