Reflection: I would not want to be an x ray technician because bones scare me. Or just seeing anything inside the body in general scares me. However, I would want to be an x ray technician that checks for the ultra sounds. That would be something I would want to do that has to do with checking anything inside the body and doing x rays. Though an x ray technician is a good career to follow this just isn't something I would want to do.
