Unlike all the boring days of school, this one was different. It was Career Guidance Day, the famous day when professionals from various fields gathered at the school to explain and answer questions from students interested in their field of work.

This event took place in the gym. Tables were set up with an easel on each indicating the type of job of the professional manning the "stand." There were lawyers, artists, pilots, police officers, writers, scientists—lots of interesting professions. And you were in a crowd of people around the table with a sign indicating "soccer player." The person behind this table was Michael Kaiser, the star player of the new generation in Germany. He was famous, so it was no wonder everyone was drawn to his profession. You weren't particularly excited; you were just wondering what the commotion was about. But soon enough, as he was answering questions, he noticed that one of the people was bored. He then looked at you with his superior look before speaking.

"You, I'm here for those interested in my career, not for the fans."
