You don't have to wait for school! He needs to watch for his neighbor-teacher Aunt Faya and show her how he can already write entire articles on collective farm topics.

He even learned to count the combine harvesters in photographs, the orders near the title of “Pravda” and how many workers were awarded the “Best Machine Operator of the Black Earth Region” badges. It’s just not clear, is the land there, or something, black? And our fields are gray and dirty...

So in the store, a boy, standing with his mother in line for bread, read out loud the price tags on empty

shelves: - A bakery loaf! It is written with “jam”.

You’re a very smart kid, Masha,” the fat saleswoman muttered, counting the change, “Please, now I’m putting up a sign - it’s interfering with work, this is not a reading hut here!”

“You made a mistake by twelve kopecks,” the boy politely told her ahead of his mother, “And you’re giving me a completely bent piece of paper—not even one of the boys will accept it!”

Hey, he's a mathematician! - the citizens in line laughed approvingly, - He grabbed the fat rogue by the hand.

In general, there was a serious scandal between buyers and sellers, and the latter nervously closed for a break. reasons."

Mom, what is “san”? - the boy asked, hanging his head guiltily, - Maybe a son? We messed up the letter again. I'm your son, and the store closed because of me. So, now we’ll go home without bread?..

My grief, my onion,” his mother sighed sadly and stroked his head, “it would be better if you went to school, and not shopping... Tomorrow, your brother and I will visit their director - what if they hire you a year earlier? The school director, you know, means a lot!

Although the school year had not yet begun, the older brother attended additional classes at his school, dreaming of going to college. All together they went into the office of the director, a strict, smart guy in a paramilitary suit.

As if enchanted, the boy stared at a huge globe on a massive stand, studded with multi-colored flags.

This is the ball! - he finally exhaled enthusiastically, having difficulty hearing the director who was asking him about something, - Yes, yes. Of course, I want to come to your school! To grow up big and smart, and play football with such a ball!

Have you never seen a globe? - the school principal lit a cigarette, - Darkness, brother, wild darkness and ignorance!..

By the way, Comrade Director,” the boy woke up here, “real men don’t smoke in front of ladies and children.”

He's too much of a Shuster for a six-year-old! - the director choked on smoke, - Let him establish order at home. Apparently, the older brother is even more impudent!..

And he began to remind his mother about all the quirks of the elder during his years of study. Like, he studies well, but argues with teachers... Rusichka constantly complains that, you know, she criticizes Mayakovsky himself. He ridicules Demyan Bedny, party theses - “he doesn’t teach a damn thing”!.. And fights in the school yard? Not one without him!.. It came to expulsion, for that matter, more than once!

The director went crazy! Brother and mother listen silently and sadly... And the boy, meanwhile, kept slowly tugging at the largest red flag from the globe - it just won’t budge! - and then, suddenly, a huge ball rolled across the floor! I barely managed to jump back.

Deathly silence reigned in the office! Only the ink gurgles barely audibly from a crushed inkwell lying on the floor, flowing out in a slow blue stream onto the parquet floor...

“Yes,” the boy thought, “now they won’t let me into this school, for sure!” The only hope left is Aunt Faya, the only teacher she knows. Just don’t do anything weird in front of her again!..”

Head teacher. From the series History of an Old House

The director of school No. 17, located across the street from the house, lived in our house.

A woman with a strong character, an imperious, strong-willed face - she directed many school loafers and poor students on the true path. Many, but not my daughter.

Her husband worked as the head of a sector in the city department of public education. She and her husband were party members with pre-war experience. My husband was a commissar during the war, and she acted as secretary with him.

They said that they had a son before the war, and during the devastation of the war, he, left in the care of his grandmother, died of typhus.

In the early fifties, a daughter was born and became a gift of fate for her elderly parents.

Their two-room apartment overlooked the courtyard and was located on the second floor. Sometimes, more often in spring or autumn, a window would open and a stern director’s voice would come from there:

Makarov, tomorrow at big break you will come to me for an explanation!

Makarov, who had just played football in the yard and, in the heat of his heart, used an unprintable expression, immediately wilted and trudged home dejectedly. There was no time for football at that moment.

When she walked through the school corridors during recess in a strict dark gray suit, life stood still at such a moment. The schoolchildren who had just been naughty frightenedly pressed themselves against the wall, trying to disappear, the teachers took two steps to the sides, politely giving way.

In elementary school, I also studied at this school, and one day I appeared before her bright eyes for some offense. No, she didn’t yell, like some teachers, or hiss angrily, like the head teacher. She just sat at the table, signed some papers and occasionally glanced at me.

But what a look it was. It seemed to penetrate into the very soul. It pierced your body like an X-ray, sent shivers down your back, and you got the feeling that there wasn’t a single nook and cranny in you that this gaze couldn’t reach. It was the hypnotic look of a boa constrictor at a rabbit, and only from there it began

pounding, and my knees buckled from trembling.

After several such glances, she simply asked:

Sasha, do you understand everything? Do you understand how to behave at school?

That's all. No more notations.

After leaving the director’s office, I remembered this look for another week, or even a month, and the memories of it made me walk on cue and slightly groggy all this time.

But what can we say about small schoolchildren? Under this gaze, high school students and even young teachers became timid. I once heard one teacher say to another:

You know, she looked at me so much that I almost peed myself!

That was a monster, you say. The monster is not a monster, but there was something magical in her gaze.

In the yard, the adults were not so much afraid of the headmistress, but rather respected her. She remembered many not only by last name, but also by first name and patronymic; She always said hello first and was polite and respectful. And yet, when meeting her, women began to bow, and men hastily took off their caps or hats.

Her daughter was somewhat older than me, probably five years. A nice girl - she was remembered for the fact that from a young age she seemed to be in opposition to her parents. As if she was showing with all her appearance that she is she, and no high-ranking parents can tell her.

From the age of thirteen, she smoked in the company of local punks in the backyards of barns and garages. At sixteen on a dark October evening, drunk and disheveled, her parents carefully led her home. At seventeen, she was detained for hooliganism and resisting the police at a dance.

Most likely, she would have been sent to a juvenile colony, but her father, with the help of his connections, managed to extinguish the conflict.

What motivated her? It can be assumed that she was trying to prove to others that she was not afraid of her parents. And no matter what she did, she did it out of spite, in a desire to assert herself and show that a mother is one thing, and she is something completely different.

The father did not survive that seventeen-year-old shame of his daughter. Mother, despite all her merits, was sent to retire.

Later, to avoid being caught for parasitism, my daughter had to get a job as a technician at the same school where her mother once worked.

Paradoxes of life. The headmistress, who knew how to keep a group of more than a thousand people in obedience with just one stern look, turned out to be incompetent in raising her own daughter.

Sad…

Several years have passed. The headmistress quietly passed away into another world. The daughter, having given birth to her own daughter, finally drank herself to death and twenty years later followed her mother.

And again the paradoxes of life. The granddaughter followed, so to speak, in the footsteps of her grandmother, successfully graduated from a pedagogical university and is currently an honored teacher of the region.

Sheena and the school principal

An impressive time is the school years. At least once, each of us remembers our studies, our school friends. After many years, funny school stories bring a smile to people's faces, and sad incidents, such as bad studies, make you think again: - Well, why did I do that? Sometimes, you so want to go back to those times and correct your mistakes, that something painful and pleasant happens in your soul.

This story could have happened in any class, in any school. In addition to our names, practically all of us had nicknames. Basically, they are close in meaning to surnames. So our hero had such a nickname - “Tire”. Nobody still knows where it came from. Well, that's the nickname and that's it.

I'm waiting for an answer to my question.

“Shina” remained stubbornly silent, swinging his briefcase behind him.

Lesson, have you even prepared it? – the teacher smiled, seeing the student’s sloppy and confused appearance.

“Uh-huh,” he muttered barely audibly under his breath, swinging his briefcase more strongly.

Well, that's good. Put down your briefcase and go to the board.

“Shina” followed the instructions.

Now, the children will carefully check how Misha solved the problem,” the teacher turned to the class and continued writing in the journal. - Please, Misha. Solve the problem on the board that I assigned you for home.

“Sheena” wrote the word “Task” on the board and, turning to the class, stood behind the teacher. No one understood what came over him. He suddenly raised his hands over the teacher, with his fingers spread. Slowly moving them from side to side, he performed the movements of a magician. There was laughter in the class.

Quietly at first. Then stronger and stronger. “Shina” liked this activity. In addition to moving his hands, he began to “make faces.” Either he sticks out his tongue, then he spreads his ears, or he squints his eyes.

The class lay down laughing.

Why is there noise in the classroom? – the teacher asked, continuing to tinker with the notes and not knowing what was going on behind her back.

The children were almost rolling on the floor. And “Shina” is happy to try. He again raised his hands above the teacher's head. Having looked around the laughing class, he continued the magician’s movements. And then... His gaze settled on the serious eyes of the school principal, who was sitting at the last desk. Slowly opening his mouth, it was as if he had swallowed something incredibly large. Continuing to stand with his eyes unblinking, holding his hands raised above the turned teacher, he looked straight into the eyes of the school principal.

Profession director

The modern dictionary of professions will not provide a clear definition of the professional qualities characteristic of a director. According to logic and common sense, this is not a profession at all, but a leadership position. At the same time, the general name of administrative and management activities includes a lot of specializations based on a particular industry, industry or service sector.

The history of the director's profession is as old as the world. At all times, any work collective consisted of a team of like-minded people, led by a talented organizer of each type of work. In Ancient Rome, special importance was attached to the word, and oratory was a mandatory attribute of a good leader. With each subsequent round of development of human society, new methods of control appeared; new techniques for organizing political systems were successfully practiced all over the world. It was this contiguity between politics and labor administration of both personnel and the entire labor process that ultimately shaped the modern understanding of the director profession.…

The social significance of the director's profession does not need comment, since the need for a talented leader of the labor process is a condition for the success of the entire enterprise.

According to researchers, the main key to a director’s success is his personality. Such personal qualities as exactingness, honesty, and determination, combined with organizational skills and a talent for persuasion that does not turn into a commanding tone, distinguish an excellent leader. At the same time, having employees from different fields of activity subordinate to him, the director must have a high level of titles specific to the work of each of them, and the ability to make the right decisions and bear responsibility for the entire team requires strength of character, erudition and an analytical mindset.

The risks of the profession are often associated with the likelihood of nervous overload and stressful situations at work. Moreover, long working hours caused by the desire to meet the schedule can cause significant damage to the health of the manager.

At the moment, there are no separate educational institutions that produce first-class directors. You can gain knowledge and develop production management skills in the specialties of higher educational institutions in the country that correspond to your future field of activity.
