In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 143: Vocational Education in Gotham
"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
The faculty canteen at Gotham University has a very old history and is the first building built in the university.
It still uses the order system of traditional club restaurants. When Schiller entered the door, he turned around and shook the water drops on the umbrella outside the door. Victor stepped aside and said, "Fortunately, there is You, who would have thought that it would rain when you walked halfway."
"Gotham is like this. If you don't carry an umbrella with you, you have to be prepared to be drenched."
Shaked the black umbrella, put it in, tied it up and placed it on the umbrella stand by the door. When Schiller entered, the heat in the room made his glasses foggy. He simply took off his glasses.
Victor looked back at the umbrella and said, "Where did you buy this umbrella? The quality looks good, so I'll buy one too."
"Do you know Green Street? It's the east side, a street next to the living hell, and there's an umbrella maker in the back alley there."
"God, you are too old-fashioned, what time is this, and you still go to the umbrella maker who makes umbrellas by hand?"
"You also said that this umbrella looks good quality."
The two sat down at a round table by the window while chatting. After a while, a waiter came to order. Victor said, "I'm really not used to it. The restaurant is also too retro, when I was in California, the restaurants there were made of windows."
"On the contrary, I don't like the window system, the greasy bacon is piled up together, and the slices of bread are cut unevenly..."
Schiller took the menu, looked at it and said, "Recently, you seem to be busy again. Is there anything going on at the Academy of Sciences?"
"Don't mention it soon." Victor took the menu handed over by Schiller, pointed it to the waiter, sighed, and said, "I'm so busy, it's all thanks to you ?”
"But I heard that the recent cold chain project is coming to an end, so you should be free."
Victor showed a helpless expression, and he said: "You don't know? Those gangster bosses are short of people and crazy recently!"
"They especially lack people with management skills. Almost all the people who can manage in Gotham City are in Gotham University. The gangsters come to borrow people, and the principal can only agree."
"But how many faculty members are there at Gotham University? I'm afraid the gangs lack jobs far more than they can borrow?"
"That's the problem." Victor tapped his finger on the table, and then said: "They can't borrow so many people, but without managers, the whole management will be in chaos, so they can only go and talk to each other again." Principal Seldon talked about..."
At this time, the food ordered had just been served, and Schiller asked while cutting the steak: "What do they want?"
"As you expected, they want to open schools."
Victor took the wine in front of him and took a sip. The cold liquid made him click his lips, and he said: "There are only three high schools in Gotham, and the enrollment rate is less than 10%. Most of them will be old. People who study honestly don’t want to go to Gotham University, let alone stay in this city.”
“They want to start their own schools, which are private schools, and teach them what they need.”
"I remember there should be a private school in Gotham?" Schiller thought for a while and said, "Where is it? It should be in the south, right? There are two private boarding schools..."
"You also said, it's in the south, it's a school in a rich area, where rich people take care of their children, the things taught there are useless, musical instruments, painting, hockey, you expect gangsters to use this knowledge To manage the business?"
"So they want to start a vocational high school?" Schiller said, turning a scrambled egg with a fork.
"It can't be called a middle school." Victor swallowed the food in his mouth, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and continued: "It can only be called a vocational school. Anyone can go to it, but gangsters should I will choose a group of people to go in, mainly to train the management team.”
"To be honest, they are a bit outrageous, Victor complained: "They asked me to repair the low-temperature warehouse for them, but after asking all the warehouse managers, none of them could understand the reading table, They can't even understand the most basic readings, how are they going to manage the warehouse? "
"So those gang bosses are going to train their own people on this issue?"
"That's right, besides, they can't find a teacher yet, so they can only come to Gotham University to borrow someone." Victor shrugged and said, "I just hope I'm not the one who was borrowed, but I It is estimated that I must be on the list."
"Should you choose not to go?" Schiller put down the knife and fork, took a sip of water, and continued, "Seldon can't tie you there."
"That's what I said, but in Gotham, more than a dozen gangsters jointly invited you, do you dare to go?"
"It seems that you already have a good understanding of the ecosystem here." Schiller said with a smile: "Welcome to Gotham, welcome to this big stage."
"And the price they offered is very good, it is several times my salary."
"Are you still short of money? Didn't you accept the entrustment of the Twelve Family to maintain and operate their cold chain industry? The salary should be enough, right?"
"No one thinks they have a lot of money." Victor said very bluntly: "Operation work doesn't take long, and the daily teaching at Gotham University...you know, it's basically equivalent to nothing, If the price they offer is right, it’s not impossible for me to be a part-time teacher.”
"And teaching them to read the reading table is also convenient for me. If they can maintain the warehouse well, I won't have to run back and forth."
Schiller nodded. Victor made sense. He estimated that most of the teachers who agreed to teach part-time in vocational schools thought the same way.
Professors have more or less accepted jobs from the gangsters. When they took over the jobs, the rewards offered by the gangsters were very tempting, but when they arrived at the scene, most of them were dumbfounded. , The guns and weapons are very smooth, but when encountering such technical problems, they are all for nothing.
The reading table is not easy to read, and it is not easy to use a slightly more complicated switch. If a professional word exceeds 5 letters, you have to look it up in the dictionary. Ask the whole team, and few can say it all. operating process.
Essentially, because the gangster industry in Gotham is too mature, most people are doomed from birth to rely on simple and crude methods to make a living, and do not think about learning any skills. When the industry starts to upgrade , Many people in this city suddenly discovered that the role of guns has become smaller, and the role of knowledge has become greater.
However, their thinking has formed a kind of qualitative thinking, and they have missed the best learning stage. Most people don't understand these, and they are unwilling to learn those complicated technical issues.
The rise of the logistics industry has led to drastic changes in personnel requirements.
Originally, if it was the job of collecting protection fees, the little boss didn't need to know anything more than the thugs under him. It might just be that he was old enough to collect protection fees. He could count the money clearly.
But it is no longer possible. The general manager of a warehouse must know all aspects, at least he must be able to read the reading table, keep an eye on the temperature readings and product status, and other people below must also pay attention to the progress of the goods. Out of stock situation.
Originally, it is possible to hire professional people to do these professional jobs, but Gotham has such a reputation, everyone knows that people with good brains will not come here to risk their lives, and gangsters can't hire them even if they spend a lot of money Several professional finance, they can only go into battle by themselves.
Insufficient professional knowledge and unwillingness to learn, but there is a shortage of management talents everywhere, and it is really impossible to hire outsiders. The gang boss has only one choice, and that is to hold training courses.
Because the teachers at Gotham University more or less took private jobs from the gangsters, the gangsters successfully contacted them, offered high prices, and hired them to be teachers in private schools.
Just like what Victor thought, many professors found out what these gangsters were doing when they were working, which would only increase their workload. Sometimes I can relax myself.
Of course, originally, this Schiller has nothing to do with him. He is a psychology professor. Those gangsters may need physics teachers, chemistry teachers, math teachers, and maybe even Chinese teachers, but they don’t need psychology Teacher Xue, the people of Gotham have nothing else but to think about it.
But the bad thing is the celebrity effect.
Before, Falcone opened a small private lecture hall in his own manor, and asked Schiller to give lectures to his family children~IndoMTL.com~ Schiller mainly talked about some basic knowledge such as industrial models , but the gangsters in Gotham have always followed Falcone's lead. Even the old godfather invited Schiller, so if you don't hire him for your own school, isn't it obvious that the old godfather has no vision?
So, one afternoon in Gotham, Schiller received an invitation letter jointly signed by more than a dozen big gangsters.
The invitation letter did not directly state the purpose, but only said to invite Schiller to visit their new vocational school, but Schiller estimated that when he arrived, he would not even think about leaving, and he would have to serve as an honorary to some extent. professor.
Schiller agrees with the fact that gangsters are actively engaged in schools. After all, if Gotham University wants to enter the Ivy League, it is necessary to improve the academic atmosphere of the entire Gotham City. In addition to setting up more high-end research institutes, It is also necessary to establish a complete talent training system.
The Wayne Group is already doing regular primary and secondary schools, but it won't be effective for a while. Now gangsters are spontaneously engaging in vocational education, which is actually a good way out, and it is very suitable for the current situation of Gotham City.
In Gotham, where basic education is lacking, the operation of the city is basically based on empiricism.
This model may have been okay before, but it is getting worse now. It is foreseeable that with the introduction of new industries and the gradual upgrading of existing industries, this kind of vocational education will become more prosperous in Gotham. Continue until the results of basic education are visible.
As a professor, Schiller doesn't mind being a pushover in the process, so he accepted the invitation and plans to go to this weekend to see what the gangsters in Gotham are up to. What can this vocational education school be made into?
