The Next Generation

I haven't spoken with Elda in a while, I know that she has been working hard as a science teacher downtown and also part-time with the AVSA. I doubt that she will be able to become an inventor-not only does she lack the desire, but she lacks the drive. What's going on? Will the next generation not aspire to downtown jobs, only working for local businesses? What about technical jobs-will there not be any?
