A cybersecurity job analyst job is perfect if you do not mind working around the clock 24/7 (graveyard shift) since you can be called in for work at any time; perfect if you do not have a family yet and want to focus on work. Me personally, I feel like a graveyard shift would not be my first choice but if I landed this job title soon as I am out of school, I honestly would not mind taking this position. A cybersecurity job analyst job is a position that you can talk your way in to. Now I am not saying that just anyone can land this position but once you meet certain qualifications with completing a degree or earning certifications, then is the perfect time to land a cybersecurity analyst job. A couple of things that stood out to me the most when listening to the video were not the money, but how easy it is to land this kind of job. While you are in school for example, you can talk to the dean of the school to see if you can work under them and get more experience with their network and grow that way. Or you can land internships just by simply looking them up or by talking to people that are in your field to get more connections. There are many connections you can land in the cyber field since there are so many upcoming wanted jobs that pay a good amount of money. As it was talked about in the video, there is no one path to get this job, there are multiple paths to take to enter this field, whereas becoming a nurse is the same process every time. Taking that to another level, our school has a similar program, not directly under our school but we work together, called bootcamp that allows you to learn everything you need to know about cyber security without taking gen ed classes. Now the way that I learned about this was by talking to people and listening to the paths they took to land their jobs. Now you will not get a degree from this program, but you will still land a job and have the same or if not more knowledge than someone that went to college.  

I personally do not use social media as a source to get away from the real world, so I scored a 0/9 on the social media disorder scale. I think that the questions that were asked during the social media disorder scale were fairly accurate to questions that could detect having a social media disorder. Most people that are on social media all the time do not even realize how much they are on social media until taking this test and making them rethink their life. Different patterns are found across the world because of the social terms that certain countries have. Let us take Korea for example, there are laws that children cannot use social media for more than a few hours a week and are disciplined in this way because they realize how social media has negative effects on teens and young kids. On that same note, every place is different, and some people are less fortunate than others, so they do not rely on social media to keep them happy or entertained.
