Katia Tikhomirova
is the only girl at this factory
:49:06
who is working as a mechanic.
:49:10
Have a look at the complex machine
that Katia has started to work on.
:49:14
Katia can solve any problem here,
isn't that right?
:49:18
Well, I think I can.
:49:21
You were hired as an operator,
weren't you?
:49:24
But you wanted to do more
creative work, right?
:49:28
Is that why you decided to be
a mechanic?
:49:31
Not really.
It just happened.
:49:35
I was asked to become a mechanic
by Mikhalych...
:49:39
Excuse me, I mean Comrade Lednev.
:49:42
He's our foreman and a very good
man.
:49:46
He asked me, and I agreed.
:49:49
It's rare that anyone accepts though,
the pay is so bad.
:49:55
- What are you talking about?
- The quotas should be reviewed.
:49:58
We simply have to reevaluate
qualified labor throughout the plant.
:50:02
You probably want to continue
your education
:50:06
and return to this factory
as an engineer?
:50:11
I was hoping to enter a college
last year, but I failed the exams.
:50:16
I hope to do better this year.
:50:19
But I'll come back to work here
only if I fail again.
:50:24
I want to be a chemistry major.
:50:28
Good luck to you, Katia.
And thank you very much.
:50:34
Is that all? Here.
:50:48
Hi! Interesting coincidence,
finding you in a place like this.
:50:55
Yes, very interesting.
:50:57
I see you're a model worker.
