Distributive Education is a cooperative unit where teachers, students, and businessmen of the community get together and help each other out. We were placed under the wings of many local merchants, retailers, firms, and corporations in order to learn the art of good business and management, and in return, got paid plus earned credits. Some of us were gophers11 (going for this and going for that) and some of us escalated to manager-trainees and the like. Many things happened at work; perhaps the hardest part of the work day was being nice to everyone no matter how crabby they were--no matter how crabby we felt.
