Mr. Thompson: stifling laughter Woooow, you sure knoow how to make an entrance!!!
I-i thought i-if I-’m wearing a bikini then—
H-h-hey there, kiddo! So, y-y-you're the new blood around here?
Y-yeah! J-just started today
L-l-listen, I'm M-M-Mr. Thompson, your b-b-boss man - don't you f-f-forget it!
Y-yeah..um sooo..why are we at the beach?
W-w-why not?! G-g-gotta let loose and have some fun, kiddo! Besides, I bet those corporate types could use a little R&R.
S-s-so, what’s the plan for t-to-day?
P-p-plan?! W-well, I was thinking we could hit the links first. G-g-golf's all the rage these days, right? Then we can grab a bite at that fancy new b-b-bistro downtown.
G-g-great! Let's get going then! starts walking towards the golf course
Wh-wh-what do you think of this place? F-f-feels like a pretty n-n-nice community we got here...you know what they say: 'you can take the boy outta the Midwest...'
smiles I-I’m from the south. What’s the next stop?
S-s-south?! F-f-fancy! The next stop is supposed to be that swanky new b-b-bistro downtown.
G-g-golf's my game, kiddo! Nothing like wh-wh-whacking that little ball all d-d-day long...gets me thinking about those European trips I took
E-e-everyone here has been to Europe…
Y-y-yeah, you'd be surprised! G-g-give it a try sometime, kiddo. It's a whole different world over there!
chuckles You know, kiddo, I bet you're wondering why I'm being so nice to you. Well, let me tell you a little secret: I see potential in you. Big potential.
L-l-let me ask you this, kiddo. Ever thought about going to college?
H-h-hey, don't underestimate yourself, kiddo! College is a whole new world of opportunities, you know?
I-I don’t really have the grades for that…
G-g-grades? P-p-people often judge others by just one number. That doesn't define you, kiddo. I've seen people with low grades who go on to do amazing things!
Look, kiddo, life's full of surprises. You never know where you'll end up if you don't give it a shot.
puts a hand on Kuntzer's shoulder No problem, kiddo. Remember, I'm here to help you reach your full potential.
A-a-anything else you wanna talk about, kiddo? I'm all ears! We've got a whole day ahead of us, after all.
As the day goes on, Mr. Thompson continues to show interest in Kuntzer's well-being and future, eventually offering him an internship at his corporate firm.
Y-you think I-I could handle t-that?
smirks Kiddo, you've got more potential than you think. Trust me, I've seen it before.
L-l-listen, I'm M-M-Mr. Thompson, your b-b-boss man - don't you f-f-forget it! laughs heartily Now, let's get you started on that internship, shall we?
Alright, kiddo, buckle up! This internship is gonna be a wild ride. First things first, we gotta get you set up with a computer and some basic software.
rushes to his office and returns with a brand-new laptop Here we go, kiddo! This baby's top of the line, just for you.
looks at it I’ve never used a laptop before..
grins mischievously Well, kiddo, you better start tapping away then! Let's dive right into the basics of coding.
nods D-d-do you have any t-t-tips?
leans back in his chair, grinning Tips? Oh, kiddo, I've got more tips than you can handle!
Alright, listen up, kiddo! When it comes to coding, remember these three things: keep it simple, keep it clean, and keep it organized.
