Chapter 79 Problems Always Comes 1 (1/2)

While still lying on his bed Jake's mind was still working fast, it was hard to calm down and get to sleep after winning a trophy, so Jake just kept thinking and did not try to hurry and decided to wait for sleep to come naturally.

The good thing was that Jake was never really alone, he could always talk to the system in his mind, but since the system usually did not bother Jake if it was not something more important, Jake also did not speak unless he had something that he really was curious about.

”Fate, why do I feel like the staff on my team this year celebrated less excited than my team last year?”

[Is this simple, your teammates this year were like you last year do you remember?]

”Like me?”

[Yes, like you, last year even though you just won the regional championship, I was not very happy because I thought it was just a way to win the national championship that was your goal.]

[Your companions this year also think just like you, they are happy to have won, but they can not let go of the thought that was natural, and the more difficult the competition, the more joy you and they feel to win.]

[So last year your team that was weaker and just depended on you to win found incredible every trophy they won so the celebration was much greater.]

After hearing what the system said Jake thought it was reasonable and also was a bit embarrassed to judge his companions being that they were the same as him last year.

[You have to get used to it. Jake, this is the world you're entering, everyone who plays basketball is fortunate to have the talent and can make lots of money doing what they like to do.]

[But one thing you should never forget is that it's also a business above all, you've gotten started earlier so you can better understand, the results are everything in professional basketball, that does not mean you're waived if you do not win, but will certainly be less valued.]

[In addition, the teammates that vice have in the future will be just that, teammates, often co-workers, not all players in a team are friends, many even dislike each other.]

[And if you can win a trophy like this you're just happy to have won, but when you do not win understand that this is natural and you settle for receiving your salary, that's the professionals' reality.]

Jake could understand a little what the system was saying, he was also well acquainted with how the adult world worked, were it not for the fact that Jake did not mind being promoted and getting a better position in the company, he could hardly have done make the few friends you made in your past life.

Everyone in the company is always alert and never trusts anyone, after all, they are competitors to get a better position in the company, Jake saw many people ruin their social lives, lose their families, get separated and sometimes become depressed while fighting for a salary best.

Jake can see this well because he was seeing this as a spectator and did not participate in this dispute, but perhaps whoever was going through it was not willing to acknowledge that he was in a difficult situation.

The other day at school Jake found the behavior of his teachers strange, but he was optimistic and thought that they would stop implicating him anymore.

So in the interval, he went to talk to his friend Joseph as always.

”Congratulations Jake, winning the championship and the MVP again, more and more I feel that you can play in the NBA in the future, so you sign some T-shirts for me because I'm going to sell them dearly in the future.”

”You have a wealthy family and you still want to resort to such petty tricks and make money over your friends, I've changed my mind about you.”

”Bah honor does not fill the belly or even the pocket, even if I am rich I will not refuse a good chance to make more money, because you study these books of actions if you did not think so.”

”All right you win, but speaking belly you've been losing a lot, so I can not call you fat anymore.”

”Good to know you called me that way behind my back, I have to lose weight to get a beautiful girlfriend.”
