Reflection:
I looked at the annual wage and my first answer was a  big, fat NO. I don't want to go around being the hero of environmental waste for an average of $63k  every year. I want to have a career that not only makes me feel more interested, it also pays well. I'm not sure I want to pursue a career that doesn't meet my criteria in terms of salary.
