Student Reflection:
3 Reasons why I like this job:
Building software
Planing, directing, installing, reviewing, and managing projects
Overseeing employees
3 Reasons why I would not like this job:
Evaluating work
Preparing budgets, contracts, and bids
Conducting meetings
Is this job for me? In my opinion, this job is not for me because I personally would not like to mange employees and then critic what they are doing and finding what is working and what is not working. This job includes some things that I love, like finding new ideas, and then having them workout and then making them come to “life.” But for the most part this job has more cons than pros for me because this job is not for me because I personally don’t like having most eyes on me and evaluating others.
The value of TOKTW experience in relation to your ideas about post secondary plans: Well, this day has showed me new ways of finding what I want to be in the future, choosing my career, and with this day it showed me how I could find what I would like to do for most of my life. I have many ideas and about post secondary, but first, I will find my area of interest in the world and find out more about the subject while trying to find out if this would be what I would really want to do. My plans after high school will definitely include plans to go to a post secondary school, so that I can further my plans in life and have a life that I want and would love and appreciate, and not take for granted.
