"On the golden porch sat the king, the prince, the king, the queen, the shoemaker, the tailor, - who will you be?"
Everyone knows this baby rhyme. The rhyme has a simple continuation: choose any title and continue the game. In life, baby, everything is not so simple. Well, think for a moment, who will you really be when you grow up? King? - I would probably like to, but - alas!.. What if I became a shoemaker? Or a tailor?
How much different people have to work so that everyone has a table and a house, books and clothes and many other useful things. Some useful things people just get from nature. But natural things these days are not used very often by people. Almost all useful things these days they do themselves from different materials. To do a useful thing, you also need to choose a suitable material and tool. And you also need skill and time. In general, it’s time to talk about professorsiyah.
Long ago people lived only in warm countries From bad weather and enemies they took refuge in caves Dressed these ancient people in palm leaves or animal skins, foraged in the forest or in the water Cooked food over a fire In those old-time days people did not yet know how to make useful things, tools and machines from natural materials There were no craftsmen or workshops then. There were no useful things in those old days professorsy.
In these days professorsthere's a lot of it So much that you can't list it. But we won't do it. We'll only talk about the most important and necessary ones.
History professorsy
In Rus' 600 years ago the first Tsar appeared His name was Ivan III. Letters and books have been preserved since those ancient times. These are the ones professorsthey call them: shooter, cook, breadmaker, tailor, bronnik, gardener, doggie, fisherman, trumpeter, clerk, miller, duckling, falconer, gardener, carpenter, silver master, stoker, stradnik, merchant, cloth-maker.
What the shooter, cook, gardener, fisherman, miller, gardener, carpenter, silver master, merchant, mason did is clear. But what did the trumpeter, clerk, duckman, falconer, bronnik, bread-keeper, stradnik, pishchalnik and pit master do? About these professorsai, probably even mom and dad don’t know! They mention these in old letters professorsai, as a doctor, pharmacist and engineer with an assistant. They write that Tsar Ivan the Terrible invited these masters from England.
In the old days people were proud of their skill. They didn’t go to work on the other side of the city in the old days, but lived in the same place where they worked. According to the craftsmen’s classes, the streets were named. In ancient cities there were Oruzheynye streets, Myasnitsky, Kuznetsky. In Moscow these ancient names still survive. Sometimes entire cities were called by professorsai residents. For example, the town of Bronnitsy near Moscow!
Now that's it professorsai won't fit on one porch. There are already many thousands of them. And new ones are showing up all the time. They are teaching many now professorsyiam in special institutes. (But first you still need to finish school!)
A profession is called a business that is done every day and is useful for other people The profession needs to be specially trained. Each such business has its own rules. For example, a carpenter should know how to hold a plane and how to remove shavings. A violinist has different rules. A violinist needs to be able to hold a bow in his hands, not a shirt. Of course, a violin is made of wood, but it doesn’t need shavings to be removed. The violinist moves the bow along the strings and receives musical sounds.
Each profession has its own instruments (like a joiner - plane, and a musician - bow).Some professions require very complex machines.Pilot - airplane, captain - ship, scientist - computer.
How to choose your profession?
It is very important that the work is to your liking Only then can you become a master of your craft.
Let's say a person loves nature Then he will like the work of a geologist, agronomist, gardener, vegetable grower, veterinarian, shepherd, milkmaid, farmer, fish farmer, forest grower, game warden or biologist. Almost everyone who later chose such professions loved all living things as a child. They collected collections. Cultivated cultivated plants at home or in the garden and beds. They looked after pets.
Another person is interested in everything related to people Such person likes to be a tour guide, teacher, nanny, coach, teacher, waiter, salesman, cashier, investigator, judge, librarian A new profession has emerged these days is manager.
And the technique? Isn't it interesting? How many important and useful things there are for those who love machines and mechanisms! Technique is a very complex and responsible matter Technique needs to be known very well In skillful hands any machine and mechanism are wonderful helpers In inept hands is a terrible evil In technology there are many different professions.
It's one thing to process materials. It takes all to know about the properties of this material. You need to be able to use suitable tools. Metals are processed by turners, drillers, milling machines. Joiners and carpenters process wood. Carving leather - tanners. Spinners make threads from cotton, wool and silk. Weavers make fabrics from these threads... And all these professions are related to technology!
And how many professions are there where you have to assemble something useful from ready-made parts! This activity is to the liking of many kids. Very crumbs assemble pyramids from colored rings. Older children play construction sets. Children love to assemble pictures from colored pieces. Adult installers assemble from huge parts houses and bridges. They are helped by huge tower cranes and other cars. The watch collector sits in a cozy chair and assembles a very precise mechanism from tiny parts - watches. Assembly mechanics assemble cars, tractors and machine tools.
And transport work? There are so many professions here that you can't count everything. Chauffeurs, tractor drivers, car drivers, pilots, captains transport people from place to place by road, by air and by water. And there are also mobile machines like excavators, bulldozers and combines! Every such machine needs to be well known to be useful and not harmful.
And if any of these machines fail? Who will treat her? Doctor? Veterinarian? Well, sure not! there are repairmen and adjusters for this.
And modern electronic technology, isn’t it interesting? Which of the guys doesn’t dream of controlling a computer or even a spaceship? They’ve probably already tried turning on the TV or radio? Who repaired this equipment after you? Don't know?
Then there's a very complex and interesting technique for scientific work. Microscope, for example. You can even see one molecule in it. Or telescope. You can see the most distant star in it.
But let's leave the technique for now... All children love to dream, listen to fairy tales, draw everything in the world. There are many adult professions where it is immediately unclear what a person is doing. Sitting at his desk. There is a piece of paper and a pencil nearby. No animals, no plants, no machines, no other people. And the person is busy. He works, as they say, by the sweat of his brow. What kind of profession is he doing? What kind of profession is it - sitting at the table? Maybe this is a writer, or maybe an accountant or a cryptographer. You can’t guess so easily from the look!
There are so many professions like this, It takes a very precise plan to make the case argue And a very precise calculation These days, people are helped to make plans and make calculations by special machines - computers. They are even called "artificial brains" Programmers help to control these machines.
There are a lot of professions - thousands!
