Reflection: I think I might like to be a occupational therapist because they help people with their disabilities and recover. I like helping people and it doesn’t sound like it’s a hard job but I think I might need to study the body and stuff to be able to work on that. But the only thing I don’t like about this job is that you constantly need to keep up with the illnesses and have to keep going to school.
