Lecture
Оглавление– Sir, it is your boss, with his lecture, sir!
– Well, yes, there he is in his bright image, Hans! We’ll have to listen!
– I have been longing to ask…
– You may ask now, Hans, just hurry up, he has already started speaking!
– Do you understand what he is saying?
– What sort of question is that, Hans? He speaks the same language as you and me, normally you are to comprehend every word he says.
– I can understand every word, sir, each one individually, but I just can’t grasp the meaning…
– Don’t you get that “it is necessary to promote flight safety in every possible way, but the effectiveness of mission planning is the key to our success, and our task, among other things, is”…
– No, I got that, sir!
– So, what is it then, Hans?
– But he will be mumbling it for 3 hours!
– To be exact 3 hours 23 minutes, Hans!
– Without a lunch break, sir!
– Why does it surprise you? The robot is speaking for him in his own voice!
– Who writes the text?
– Nobody does, Hans! The text is compiled by the System automatically!
– But why, sir!
– For you to listen!
– Don’t they understand that we aren’t listening to them?
– They understand it all! Moreover, they understand that we understand that they understand!
– That we don’t watch or listen, sir?
– We’re listening alright, Hans! That is why you are so bored. We are stewing in our own juice while they just add some spices to it. But your brain catches everything! The incoming voice for this is modulated in a special way. We are sure to answer test questions at the end, so don’t get too distracted.
– You mean to say that I can remember that “it is necessary to promote flight safety in every possible way, and the effectiveness of mission planning is the key to their success, and our task, among other things, is”… ah, damn it!
– That’s right, Hans, exactly, and, word for word!
– Are we doomed forever? Will this stuff get stuck in my head and keep buzzing just like it is now: “it is necessary to promote flight safety in every possible way”…
– Of course not! What’s the matter with you, Hans! Some kind of panic attack stained with misanthropy! You will soon forget most of this crap! So will I, fortunately! It will lower into your subconsciousness in the form of a set of instincts. You should realize this, you are a biologist by specialization…
– I beg your pardon, sir! Serving the system, sir!
– Come on, Hans, our life is meaningless unless we can have some fun in every way, even during this lecture. So, let’s have some fun and take it easy!
