Reflection:

I don’t think I’m adequate  for this job because it doesn’t really catch my attention I mean it must be awesome working with all these chemicals, mixing and matching different substances but I just don’t want to mess with that and end up putting the world in danger for compounding something that can’t be irreversible.
