Haha....teachers teaching? Come to my school for a day...

Except skip my calculus class. Mr. P's an example of everything a teacher is supposed to be.
Why would I want to go to your school? You're like older then me (likely 2 grades higher too) so I'll be out of place. XD

except my physics teacher who basically calls us stupid every day, and kids around here don't see that.
That some teacher there, but then again it should make all the students want to do better to prove that teacher wrong. XD


What schools need to do is teach kids reading, writing, and counting with their fingers. That way they can ship them kids out out of school faster so they can get jobs and go farther faster in life. XD

On the upside, we are going to need a substantial number of people to work for us someday. People, in time, receive their just reward for apathy, though it may be irksome now. I'm always distressed to see people willingly rush along the path to proletarian drudgery, but I'm seeing these kind of people more and more as a necessary evil.
Naminé thinks that the sad reality is how the world functions. The society will find a mean to ensure that only a certain amount of the population will receive an adequate amount of education. The society needs some people to be sacrificed to do low paying jobs that are unappealing to the educated group. These low paying jobs are definite in their power to maintain the order of society, yet is not necessarily a pleasant job to do. To guarantee that these positions are filled, Naminé thinks that universities and colleges may continue to raise the admission fee and prerequsite marks, so only so many people will ever receive the education required for the high paying jobs. Those with high paying jobs will continue to push against the limits, until one day their reaped benefits will dripple down to the bottom of the society hierarchy, where those working for the low paying jobs are.

As for what Mr. Arcanine said, wouldn't schools be promoting people to work for the low paying jobs? In all aspects, Naminé hopes that schools will encourage people to work hard so they can go to universities and colleges one day, and not shipping out kids in light speed, teaching kids to practice "Do you want fries with that?" in advance.

Of course, all of this is only Naminé's theory and does not deserve anyone's attention in reading it~

I think that with the coming inprovement of technology, those jobs that may not seem pleasing will become more pleasant, but harder to do. Because of this, more intelligent people will be needed to do these jobs, which might even raise the the pay. With the need for intelligent people rising, the demand for college graduates would also be rising. Will this pressure on colleges, they might even lower their tuition so that anyone can join a college. There might even be free good colleges out there one day so that others can understand how to live with today's technology. Meh, that's my views on the evolution of work and money.

I also have another 'would you like fries with that?' view too XP

By then, won't the currently high paying jobs be even more difficult to carry out? Doctors may be required to spend even more time in school in order to learn everything due to the technological advancement. Naminé hates to believe it, but it seems that when the lower end jobs are pushed up, the higher end jobs are pushed even higher up, always one step on top of the lower end jobs.

Naminé is a doomed pessimist, ruled by hopelessness down to her rotton core~

I think with upcoming technology, doctor's won't be at the high end of the pay check, but mechanics and engineers will. They'd be the one making all the technology :3 So...they might be the ones to stay in college longer. Pharmacists will still be in control though. Everything might be cured with a simple dosage XP

That's a good point. They should make an antidote for every type of sickness there is. I know it sounds really stupid and unreasonable, but you never know what the future can bring. ;D

Sorry to hear that LT. That's really sad. I've heard that disease can be devastating. Unfortunately, I don't think scientists will ever be able to cure some diseases. If they did, the world would become overpopulated though, so I guess it could be a good thing. :\

Unfortunately I see neither of these types of jobs ever becoming some of the most lucrative; on the part of doctors and pharmacists, it's indicative to me that they've reached their peak because of how often teachers urge their students to pursue the career. Admittedly I find it disheartening that not only are teachers emphasizing material wealth but they focus so narrowly on this handful of occupations as if it is the only chance for success for anyone who goes to public school (as in, there's no hope of them being particularly worthwhile or valuable people so they had might as well make as much money as possible.) It it always either pharmacist or doctor that is mentioned, but I do not see this trend lasting long because of the sheer quantity of people who take these aspirations as their own leaving high school.

No less than five people in my very small graduating class are already planning to be pharmacists despite their knowing that 80% of aspiring pharmacists do not make it to the industry; I assume that a higher percentage of doctors make it to their field but the end result usually is the same; the image of the successful and wealthy practicioner is always reserved for a privileged few with the rest having to shelve their aspirations in order to engage in a humble career in a low-paying country position where medical and pharmaceutical care is most needed. With this happening more and more from the overflow of individuals going into these careers the reputation of it being dead-end will eventually make its way back to the places where these misbegotten dreams began and new careers will be targeted in the way doctor/pharmacist is now.

The same goes for engineering, which is the non-academic equivalant of the optimal hot job. The problem is that these kind of jobs will never be at the top because of their nature of work based on the needs of others of construction work; there will always be sick people but the ebb and flow of the economy will cause upswings and downswings in need for construction that make the market unpredictable. This is not even considering that technology is an engineer's worst enemy; in all fields of work machine is taking the job of man and a job that relies so much on tools and precision is going to be highly susceptible to this kind of advancement.

And, I digress, as I'm sure this conversation is long over and I've typed far too much.

It disheartens Naminé to see that a great post from a staff member went unnoticed by anyone. Naminé must not laid waste to Mr. Chairman Kaga's efforts and his well written post in the DCC.

Naminé doubts that this will be true. The high academic mark required to enter the medical field almost always ensures that there aren't enough doctors for the job, yet they cannot lower the requirement because the fine quality of a lifesaving doctor must be maintained. The only way they can possibly boost the amount of doctors is by encouraging more people to enroll into the field. Though many may possibly fail to be a doctor, luckily the program is setup so that they can transfer to other faculties easily. Naminé knows that the pre-requisite for the medical field coincides with many other scientific field. The other fields act as a safety net so that those who unluckily, failed to be a doctor, have alternatives to guarantee their living. These other jobs are nowhere near the lower end of all jobs either, such as lab researchers or the field of immunology, and etc~

Though there are machines to do the work, Naminé thinks that there is a need of a leader, and other group of people to do all the planning necessary to put the advanced machines into a good use. Hence, engineers are in need. Though that is the case, Naminé agrees that engineers rely on others as the basis for a need to even hire them~

Environmental field is Naminé's guess for the next popular trend in occupation. With the heated talks and deep concern regarding the degenerating atmosphere and pollution, it seems that the need for more specialists within this field can only increase at an exponential rate~



Power shortage used to scare Naminé a lot when she's younger... it is scary when the lights are all out, and the TV shuts itself down, and plunge young Naminé into a world of total darkness~

Somehow, Naminé senses that the staffs hate her for reasons beyond her comprehension and out of the imaginary world which she encloses herself into...

Teacher's are encouraged to tell their students what fields are the best for working in. There are some teachers that do tell kids the reality of things, do what you really want, but know that in no way will you be making anywhere near the amount of money that a doctor or technician would be. But the field is still a small one, for good doctors of course.

But yeah, the medical field is one that will never have too many jobs. People get sick all the time, there's always a shortage of staff in hospitals, and those with no shortages usually have poorly trained staff. It's a rare thing to find a good hospital in running order with good staff.

o_o Yeah, Namine (sorry, I dunno how to do the e with the accent ><) but I agree with you entirely o_o It bothers me, too, when I see lengthy quality posts going unnoticed, because then the other person thinks "Why am I writing so much for if no one's going to listen?" and therefore it's having sorta like a domino-effect on people (which might contribute to why people are posting so shortly)

o_o And yeah like, for schooling and stuff, I wanna be an animator, but I dunno how much math I need for that o_o;; Nevertheless, I still take University-level math, but it's really weird.. I understand everything completely, and then I go to do the test and I get a crappy 70% on it --; I even tried getting a tutor.. but he didn't really help because he's like "Yeah.. you know it already! I dunno why you're doing bad."
