Reflection: Being an
Optician is something I would not want to be in the future. The job seems cool
but this is a subject I am not really into, it really doesn't catch my
attention. I also would not like to be an optician because you basically get
paid somewhat of minimum wage and I know I could earn more than that with
another job I have in mind. In addition, I would not like to be an optician
because I have a weak stomach and working with the human eye won’t make my weak
stomach any better. All in all being an optician is something that is not in my
life goals
