Reflection:
          This career does not draw to my attention. I would not want to become an acupuncturist.  This is not something of my interest. I wouldn't want to stick needles into someone else. This job is a bit scary because you are sticking needles into someone and if an accident happens who knows what may happen to the patient. It pays a really good salary but this job is not for me.
