Perhaps they will opt for an education in the warehouse logistics field, to ensurehelp make sure everything runs smoothly in their companies in the futurelater on.
Florian Wittkugel (5th grade Gymnasium Bammental), on the other hand, delved into office the administrative processes in an office, even also making phone calls to customers and learned how important it is to always remain attentive and friendly despite all the hustle and bustle of the business world. Even businessmenmerchants don’t onlyjust deal with numbers.
