Sidney McLean
Sidney McLean recently visited our classroom to talk about her job. She is currently a crown attorney. These people are the ones that prepare the cases for the courtroom and much more. Overall, I have never been interested in law so this job does not really fit me.
Amy Beamer
Amy Beamer works in human resources at the KPL ( Kitchener Public Library). Her job is to find the right people to work for her company. Having a job in human resources would be pretty cool because you just hire and fire people. On top of that, you have to interview a lot of people. This job would not be suitable for me because it is full of repetition. I would not be able to interview over hundreds of people. I find that boring. Also, if you were to fire someone. They might hold a grudge against you and get revenge. In conclusion I would not like to have this job.
Judith Koeller
A math lecturer visited our classroom to talk about her job. While she was here I learned about what it is like to be a math lecturer. Judith Koeller talked about the education required to become a math lecturer. She also talked about the income and life of being a math lecturer. I do not want to become a math lecturer at all or any sort of job that requires teaching somebody. Overall, a math lecturer is interesting job but it is not something i look forward in becoming.

Who I would vote for.
If I could vote now. My vote would go to the NDP. I'd vote for them because they seem to care more about the people and country. The NDP seem more relaxed on issues such as abortion and other issues. I like the NDP because they will try to raise minimum wages and protect public sector buildings such as schools and hospitals. Overall I would vote for the NDP because they care about the people more than themselves and are less greedy then the conservatives.
Scot Wahl
Having Scot Wahl in class talking about his job is pretty cool,. being able to beta test the new products is a sick perk at RIM. Also, the pay is well. His job at rim seemed pretty good. I did not like the technical writing stuff, it seemed to boring and repetitive and that is something i cant see my self doing. Also, the amount of hours he works a day is a lot. In the end I don't like any of his technical writing jobs but i may be interested in a job at RIM.

Jen, Environmental Professor.
An environmental professor seems like a good job that can help the world.. You think of ways to get people to become more Eco-friendly. You try to get people involved in community events to help clean, plant trees and many more things. You also do a lot of research and paperwork as well as teaching your students.The amount of schooling required for this job seems too much for me. Also, living on a $20,000 salary for a few years seems harsh. Overall an Jen was a good speaker, person and environmental professor but that is not something i can see myself doing in the future.
FFP Course
Overall the FFP course is pretty cool, I enjoy the liberty of being able to do what projects I want. Also, I enjoy the fact that there is no set due date, so I can do the projects with out stressing to complete them last minute. Overall I think this Future Forums Project is good and I would recommend that the program stays running for future students.
