WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT SOMEONE YOU MEET FOR THE FIRST TIME? PART 1
The first thing I notice is hands. I think the reason why I notice them before everything else is that I strongly believe that each type of hand tells something about you. It's like a sort of introduction (your calling card!) to your life or personality or maybe style.
For example, if a hand is covered in warts, you may be someone who works with your hands. If your nails are dirty with soil, you may be a farmer or someone who loves gardening (even though I think that you mostly use gloves when gardening, while if you're a farmer you don't. I'm stating this 'cause I live in a rural area where there are loads of farmers nearby and I can definitely affirm that they mostly work bare hands. There are exceptions, of course!)
I split the answer in half. If you're willing to correct me, please look for part 2 too. Thank you!

Very nice writing. An extra point for ‘calling card’. That’s good!

Amazing work!
I would refrain from using parentheses in general. In your example the first ones are fine, the second ones are unnecessary and somehow make your argument weak/boring.
Keep up the great work!

I also look at someone's hands. More for personality traits than occupation.
