Career Info that I have

Consider:
❏ Upsides/downsides of job
❏ Job duties/ responsibilities
❏ Salary range
❏ Future outlook
❏ Lifestyle factors
❏ Advancement opportunities
This job is one of the jobs that need creative thinking, but sometimes
it will spend more time and do more things when necessary.
It is a job to create the software with the data and your typing. When
you are looking the different words to build the program to make
people easier to live, that is a significant change. From
PayScale.com, we can see the average salary of this job is 64,187
USD for a year, and the area is from 41k to 99k, without the bonus.
As we can see, the future of this is job is very high like Bill Gates, the
father of Microsoft; when he was young, he was a computer
programmer, and Windows bring him to this height.
Because the computer program is the things from the mind, it may
well make the programmer keep work until it is done, and the most
things they are afraid of are forgetting where they did. From what I
write about the future of this job, the opportunity of this job is infinity,
and it depends on how they work hard, and if they catch the chance,
they may become the second Bill Gates or second Mark Zuckerberg.

This is a job which have the standard salary and it also is ine if high
salary job, but it also has some problem, like it will be a little danger
if they are the kind of wor in the factory. It is like to build the things
by their hands like the engine and the whole car, but the other kind
of engineer is work on the office or the handwork room they are
work on the model by the computer, that’s more like designer.
From he PayScale.com I can see the salary of this job average is
66,327 CAD/year and the lowest and highest are 50k-94k.
