Job of a Lifetime Is there a job you would love to have for the rest of your life and not have to worry about it running out of use? There are over a million jobs in this world for you chose, but only one is perfect for you. There are certain colleges that only have classes for certain jobs. I want to be able to go to NFL to continue to play football, but if I don’t I will want to stay close with sports and to work with athletes. Since I want to stay close to sports, I have decided to research a Sports Medicine Physician. For this there are many responsibilities to learn to be able to take care of young athletes when they are injured (Sports). I want to be able to tell athletes how to take care of their injuries and stay safe (Sports). I believe that having a job that will last will help you in the long run and keep the money coming. When you start the occupation you choose you will gain many responsibilities and skills that you need to make sure you do during the day.

My high school has “Health Occupations Students of America is a national organization for students who are enrolled in Health Occupations Education. HOSA offers students the opportunity to develop leadership skills and job skills to be used in the world of work”(Durant). Most the classes i will be taking when i 'm a junior. You also need to find the right college that has the classes you need to major in that career. Colleges will have a different amount of years you will need to attend to earn a degree. “Formal education and training requirements for physicians are among the most demanding of any occupation—4 years of undergraduate school, 4 years of medical school, and 3 to 8 years of internship and residency, depending on the specialty selected. A few medical schools offer combined undergraduate and medical school programs that last 6 rather than the customary 8 years”(Sports).
