a Sonographer You will be in close, physical contact with strangers of all shapes and sizes: Ewwwwwwwww! I think I'm OK with that...most of the time. It comes with the job, right? I'm on it! None When you hear the word anatomy, what comes to mind? Honestly, I get a little sick to my stomach. I'll learn it, but I don't have to like it! Cool! I'm so fascinated by the human body! None Some patients will be nervous or even upset. You: Will need them to calm down so they can comfort you. Robotically say that everything will be alright. Make a genuine effort to comfort them. None Sonography comes with steady hours, but occasionally you will be on call (meaning you can be called in on off-hours). Your response? No! Once I punch out, I'm out! Fine. But they better not call me in at 3am! No worries! If it helps someone else, I'm in. None You will be trained on some complex and expensive equipment. Is the machine resistant to the coffee I will likely spill on it? I can install games on my smart phone, I can probably handle this. I'm the one everyone else goes to for help with their computer problems. None Time's up
