The choice of a profession

The choice of a profession depends on one’s taste and temperament. Once can think a number of professions. They are the administrative services, business, law, politics, engineering, medicine and teaching. I do not want to become an administrative officer because an administrator has to be a tool in the hands of ministers. Business offers no rest from work. Law has no attraction for me because a lawyer is said to be a liar. I feel that legal profession does not suit men of honesty. I have no liking for the medical profession. Engineers are more machines than human beings. Politics also is a dirty game of dishonest men. Besides, it is meant for the rich who have a lot of money and time to waste.
