    A centipede was happy – quite!
    Until a toad in fun
    Said, "Pray, which leg comes after which?"
    Which threw her mind in such a pitch,
    She laid bewildered in the ditch
    Considering how to run.

--- Quote from: Mr_Rose on 19 Sep 2017, 23:27 ---So, question: now that Faye is legitimately employed again and has a genuine career ahead maybe, would she go back to college part-time to get “properly” qualified in robo-fixin?

Sure, she and a friend just started a business by borrowing heavily and using another friend as a co-signer. A business which is struggling through it's start up phase, and for which they've had all of four customers so far. Why not go offer and get thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars into debt while skipping potential work time to get accreditation for what she already knows how to do?

Yes, that was rather acerbic. Might have something to do with how I was pushed by family into a similar situation, though I wasn't starting my own business at the time. It was still two years of wasted time and money to go through schooling for a useless piece of paper to 'learn' what I already knew, just to have that piece of paper saying I knew it.

That piece of paper can be necessary, unfortunately.  Faye and Bubbles could work at the skate park without credentials, since everyone there was breaking the law anyway, but I could forsee Union Robotics running into certification issues in the future.

Or the field may be so new that there is no globally recognized credentialing body as yet, although I'm sure there are less credible ones aplenty as long as you're willing to pay the tuition.

(Yeah, I've had to play the certification game.)

brasca:
Well if they want to make some money fast and get away with it then they should ask May how she got caught.  Corpse Witch would be a good consultant too since she would've gotten away with her crimes if it weren't for that meddling cyber god.

cesium133:
I'm not sure if Corpse Witch would be particularly eager to help Faye and Bubbles, though...
