    Reflection
    The video was about a guy named Patrick Morgan who found an Ipad and $13,000 dollars at his job. He chose to give it to the authority and when the owner got his stuff back, he gave Patrick $60 dollars as a way to thanking for finding his money and his ipad. Patrick gave part of his money to a homeless lady and the rest to a co-worker who needed money. He was honored for his hard work and his honesty and he got a check for $625.

      Nursing Home Administrator 
                                                                 

    Duties and Responsibilities: The responsibility for a nursing home administrator is to supervise nursing homes and other medical facilities.

    Salary: The average yearly salary for a nursing home administrator is $65,000-$90,000

    Education: The education requirements for becoming a nursing home administrator are:

    4-Year bachelor degree
    Must pass a state licensing examination
    Must complete a state-approved program





    Reflection: I would not like to become a nursing home administrator because I am not good at supervising and I would like to develop a career in which I can be conducting surgeries or something more productive. However, I still believe this job is very important because supervision is needed around babies and people in their third age since they can easily be taken advantage of. I support anyone who wants to pursue this job!

    Forgiveness
    The video was about Megan and Lisa who were killed in a car accident with Eric Smallridge. Eric was arrested and he was going to be in prison for 22 years but Megan's mother forgave him and he only got 11 years of prison. I think this was a good story because it shows how its better to forgive because if you don't , you will never recover from a deep injury whether it is emotional or physical.
