Point Two- Top 10 Jobs for Women

Point Two- Top 10 Jobs for Women


  1. Secretary and Administrative assistants
  2. Registered Nurses
  3. Elementary and Secondary School Teachers
  4. Cashiers
  5. Nursing, psychiatric, and home health aides
  6. Retail Salesperson
  7. First-line supervisors/managers of retail sales workers
  8. Waitresses
  9. Maids and Housekeepers
  10. Customer Service Reps

I was looking at this list and was surprised by it, it can be easily sorted into categories.
  • Assistants/customer service: 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
  • Healthcare- 2, 5.
  • Teaching- 3
And then once again, this can all be narrowed down to one job description.
  • Serving others, dedicating yourself to another's success.
This inspired my point that women can be more than just assistants. They are powerful and can dedicate their time to being as successful as a man in any field they wish, my example is STEM- Computer Science.

However, I know a good Ted Talk needs to be about something that you are passionate about, so I opened myself up in front of everyone, without a script, just my rehearsed points. Surprisingly, I slipped right into the topic, my nerves washed away and I was able to just talk about STEM and women.      Unfortunately, unscripted meant that everything that came to mind would be said without revision. I enjoyed this until I slipped up on wording and was challenged by my audience. However, because I was passionate about my point I stood my ground even when my audience disagreed with me. It was challenging to continue, but ignoring the difficult feedback until the end of my presentation was easy after slipping back into my talk.     I was not paying attention to anything but my topic, so I...
