Duties and Responsibilities: Special dentists who deal primarily with malpositioned teeth and the jaws. Salary: $188,000 USD Education: Undergraduate degree, Doctor of Dental Science degree Demands or needs for this profession: reading comprehension, active listening, writing, speaking, etc. Reflection: Would you like to be one? Why or why not?      I wouldn't like to be one because I do not find this job interesting. I know I would get bored of it easily. I don't like going anywhere near people's mouth because it disgusts me. The salary isn't very good either only 55 people earn $188,000 USD annually so what about all the other orthodontists how much do they make. I want a more interesting job than working in someones mouth.  

"If you do what's right, if you live the right way, you'll be taken care of." - Rachel Castillo I think what this quote means is that if you do the right thing and live the right way then you don't necessarily need a reward right then and there because if the future you will be rewarded a lot more. For example, if you have been doing good things all your life and never earned a reward the maybe you will be rewarded in some other way. I think that it was good of the woman to give the money back because it was a large amount and it belonged to a man who had health problems. She did the right thing because the man could have needed that money for a doctor or something. Other people would have taken the money and claimed it for themselves. Those people don't realize the loss of the person who that belongs to especially for that amount of money. I would have returned it and I wouldn't want a thing back because I would have felt good inside and I would have be...

Salary: $232,870 USD Education: Medical or advanced degree Demands or needs for this profession: Dexterity, interpersonal communication, leadership, organization. Reflection: Would you like to be one why or why not?     I think I would like to be one because this job seems interesting and I don't think I would ever get bored of it. I think this job would be hard though because the areas where these surgeons specialize are delicate and easy to mess up. I think that it would take a lot of time and precision to finish one surgery. So you might have to have a lot of patience.

"In life as in football, you won't go far unless you know where the goal posts are." - Arnold H. Glasgow I think what this quote means is that you won't know what you are aiming towards unless you set goals for yourself. I think it is important to set goals for yourself because then you have something to work towards. I have goals of my own for example, one of my goals is to maintain A's in all of my classes. Another goal of mine would be to be on time to all of my classes. I also think that long term and short term goals are important too because then you have a goal for the week and a goal for a long time. I always work hard towards my goals because i'm always proud of myself whenever I accomplish a goal. I also believe that people should definitely set goals for themselves. Most of my goals are school related but I also have goal that I have set for out of school. I also think that people shouldn't give up on their goals just because they are hard the...

I don't think I would enjoy this job very much anyways because I think I would get bored of it quickly. The salary for this profession is below the average salary and I think that it isn't a good thing either. I don't think this job is for me because I'm not interested in these types of careers. I wouldn't like to be in an office all the time too because I cant stay in a room all day. I get bored easily and I think that if I get...

"Only those live who do good." - Count Leo Tolstoy I think what this quote means is that people who do good throughout their life will truly live their full potential. For example, if you are always donating to charity or helping the poor you will live a happy life because you know how much good you are doing and you will be happy with yourself. I would rather do the right thing and be happy and content with myself. Instead doing the wrong thing and be disappointed in myself. In my opinions I would rather everyone do the right thing and be happy because its important to see others happy. I think what the guy did to return the stolen money to the lady was kind of him. I think it was kind because he didn't know if it was hers or not but he wanted to repay his fathers debt. Also for the lady to choose to pay for his bad trip was sweet of her too because she knew it wasn't his fault but he still wanted apologize. I also like what he said about not being like your parent...

I don't get grossed out very easily but touching or having to do a surgery on someones eye. Eyes are so delicate and I think that you can mess up very easily and if you do you'll get sued. I think it is an interesting job and it has a good salary but I wouldn't...
