My thoughts on this job were very high. When I began to read from the paper I had got, I realized this would not be a very easy job.

If I had chosen this job I would like it very much because I would get my own office, which I would really like. Also I would really want a computer while I am working on my job. The strong points I have on this job are the ability to work with computers. I also am good with math. Math is really the key to this job. My low points will be, making charts.
