200 Years as a Cobbler

 

There have been many changes in the last 200 years in my shoe business.Some of the changes include Technology . In 1815 when  the company started we only had one material and it was leather.1815 you didn’t get your exact size.1815 you had to go to the store to get your shoes.1815 you could only get one style.1815 you only got two colors black and brown.In the 1815 there was no internet so you couldn’t buy the shoes online.In the 1815 there were only one style and you couldn’t buy clothing by the shoe maker because they only made shoes.

 

Now, in 2015 we can use the internet. In 2015 you could buy from online. In 2015 there are different colors.2015 you could buy clothing online.2015 there are commercials on tv.2015 there are different colors.2015 you can use different materials like polyester and cotton inside the shoes. We can now print advertisements on newspapers more easier.We have better tech than in 1815.Now we have different styles like basketball shoes and soccer shoes.

I believe that that technology .Now we have computers to put advertisements.We can now put ads on tv.Technology has imporve since 1815 we have Iphones,Ipad,Apple,Samsung.Now we can do million stuff with technology,we can now click on a bottom and a car will come up in front of me.We can deliver now with robots.So that’s how technology imporve my company form 1815.

 

200 Years As A Cobbler

There have been many changes in the last 200 years in my shoes business. Some of the changes include  that technology can make better shoes and better designing. Also the fashion a lot of people didnt no what fashion was. If they would of haven machines it would of been better for them because it faster to make shoes and it can make better shoes than hand made shoes in my opinion.

 

in 1815 when  the company started we made shoes by hand. We Also didn’t have colors except for black and brown . Also people couldn’t pick there own size they would get whatever we’d have. They also mostly only had leather to make the shoes.

Now, in 2015 we have any colors you want and you can pick the size. Now there is also different and better materials. We also have machines to make shoes instead of making shoes by hand.

My shoes business will be better in the past 50 years because we will have more ideas and better materials. We will probably get new colors and better fashion ideas.WE will probably shop in flying cars and we will do it faster.  We will also probably make glass shoes battery shoes and maybe flying shoes . We will sell headbands candy shirts pants shorts socks sport things and more stuff. I know that my company will keep doing this in 50 years because people need things we sell because they’re important for people to use.

200 years as a Cobbler

200 as a Cobbler

 

There have been many changes in the last 200 years in the shoe business. Those changes include color,production,material,and time limit.

 

In 1815 when the company started you could only get the colors brown or black. The time limit was slow and you barely had any materials. Back then there were only assembly lines. No electronic machines. It was all hand-made. The price would be about $300 for just one pair of shoes. Only one pair!

 

200 years later now in 2015 we have multiple color choices. Instead of just plain black or brown we have colors like red,blue,yellow, green, purple and pink. The time limit is efficient and we even have special materials to make shoes with wheels. We have machines to press down the sole and many other uses. The highest price goes up to being only $50.

 

I believe that electricity made a major change. It is very helpful. The invention of computers made a big difference because people could create their own websites. Plus, shipping would be faster and the price was a lot lower. The tiny change really did a lot of big help.

 

In 50 years the shoe business will be very successful.It will be more efficient. Once my store is finished building I will put a big sign that says “Grand Opening”. We will be making 15 shoes per employee and  selling 50 a day. Our shoes will be mostly made of plastic,rubber,cloth and a little leather. We will also make backpacks,shirts,jackets,and hats.Hopefully our shoe company will make a lot of progress.

200 years of a cobbler: Edwin

Back then they did not have many options. They had some ugly shoes. The same things are that they still sell shoes, some styles are the same. They also had to walk to the closest shoe maker. For some people the closest shoe maker was about 3 hours away.  It was also hard to afford shoes for your family back then. The reason it was hard to afford was because if you worked for the whole day you would earn about 1 dollar.

In 1815 when the company started the only way we could tell the world about our shoe company is by paper. But the good thing was that I was the only cobbler in Lebon Shanes dr. Which meant more money for me. Also some families have about 4 members.

 

Now, In 2015 we have more technology. We also use the internet to tell the world about my company. We now sell shirts, pants, shorts, sports gear. Now we also have more options like colors, type, size, and if you want to customize. In 2015 we also make the shoes faster and you can order them and they will come to your house quick.

 

I believe that the past years there is a major change in my company. They have more tools and internet. I also believe that in the future shoes will be made faster. Now they’re selling more than shoes. Back then it took about 3 hrs took make one pair.

Shoes

There have been many changes in the past 200 years of shoes. Some the changes that have occurred are that there are shoe stores all over the place instead of one in one place. Another change that has occurred is technology, our technology has changed so we can make it quicker and with all kinds of materials such as rubber or plastic.

 

The things that are the same are the shoes, the same brand, styles, manmade. They are made by the same company and their are the same types. There are many things in common but many things that are different.

 

In 1815 when the company started we were 4 in a half stars. We were making 5 shoes a day and selling 10 a day. Everybody made 5 dollars every two days. It was great and then we found colors. We made red shoes, blue shoes, yellow shoes all for the cost of 30 dollars. We were in 1855 when we started using colors. Then we made plastic and rubber.


We were the best shoe business in town. Then we are here in 2015. I hope to sell things in 50 years that could hover, bounce high for basketball players or for fun, shoes that can turn into roller skates with a click of a button. We might even have shoes that could tie and put themselves on. They would be made out of all kinds of things like metal, bouncy ball rubber, couch cushion, thick hard glass, wood, and many other things. We will still be making shoes, money, and ideas.

  1.      Now that you have created advertisements for your shoe company, what changes have taken over the last 200 years? What were the major causes of those changes?

1815

One thing about 1815 is that you have to see sign or hear from another person there was no INTERNET. And also the people that would have told you had to trust because people back then didn’t get much money.

 

There was only one place in your town that you could get your shoes and when you got there and saw shoes you liked that shoe only came in brown and black. And they came in a shoe size close to your there were kids shoes men shoes and women shoes.

 

 

2015

Things have changed since 1815 were a new company you can go search up are company there is now Internet and find new products that are manufactured in china. Most of are shoes are found online and for people in need of shoes.

 

 

 

 

  1.      What will the shoe business be like in 50 years? How will you shop? What will they be made out of? What else will a company sell with the shoes?  Be creative, but thoughtful, with your answer.  Who knows, you might be doing this as a career in 50 years.

 

Yes but this time with alot more technology and we will be advanced with all of our shoes and next will come glow in the dark and in all colors and can jump higher so might fly and shipping may become free we will have many more changes with our company.


There will be an definite change with all of are shoes prices shoes price will go way up people may have enough money to pay for shoes in the future or are business may fall down the drain and most customers may not like the prices hopefully they do.

200 Year Cobbler Esay

200 Year Cobbler Essay

By:Abdi

 

There have been many changes in the last 200 years in my shoe business. Some of the changes are that when we make the shoes, we use a conveyor belt to make the shoes and we use different material other than just leather, also we use different colors.

In 1815 when the company started, we made the shoes by hand and we only made the shoes in leather, black or brown, and in only a few sizes.

Now in 2015 we make the shoes in all different sizes and the shoes are made on a conveyor belt by robots.

I believe that there are 2 major reasons for the changes in the company are 1) we don’t make the shoes by hand and 2) the shoes are very odd.

 

In 50 years, the business will be controlled by a robot named Carrel and the shoes will be made out steel and metal and the shoes will be able to fly to your house.

Civil Engineer

Civil Engineer

I think Civil Engineer is a cool,boring, and fun job.It’s cool because you can use alot of cool stuff.It’s is boring because somtime you have to do boring math.It is fun because you can make the tallest buliding in the world and you could work with fun people.

 

To become a civil engineer you need to complete bachelor degree in civil engineering or one of its specialties.  A program by ABET is needed in order to gain licensure,which is needed to work as a professional engineer.  Bachelor’s degree programs in civil engineering or civil engineering technology include coursework in math, statistics, engineering mechanics, system and fluid dynamics, among other courses,depending on the specialty. Courses include a mix of traditional classroom learning,working in a lab,and fieldwork. The Important Qualities Civil engineer need are decision making skills, leadership skills , math skills, problem solving skills, writing skills, and organizational skills.

 

Civil engineer generally work indoors in offices.However,they sometime spend time outdoors at construction sites so they can monitor operations or solve problems at the site.Sometimes civil engineer travel to work on large engineering projects in other countries.Civil engineer work full time.Engineers who direct projects may need to work extra hours to monitor progress of the overall projects,to ensure that the design meets requirements, and to ensure that deadlines are met.They design,construct,supervise,operate,and maintain large construction projects and systems,including roads,buildings,airports,tunnels,dams,bridges and system for water supply and sewage treatment.Many civil engineers work in  design,construction,research,and education.

 

Civil engineer get paid a lot but they’re different type of engineer who  work for different people.Nonresidential construction get paid the least.They get paid $73,740 dollar in a year.Federal government,excluding postal service get paid the most.They get paid $89,440 dollar in a year.But most engineer get paid $86,200 a year or even more.


Civil Engineer will be here 50 years because they build building,road,bridges,and maybe they can make something that help us in the future that why they will be here in 50 years.There’s nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind. – Bill Nye

Architects In The Future

In my Opinion Architects will be in the future because no one else would be able to make more offices, houses and apartments. Everybody needs a Architect to make a unit that will be for their job or home. Image a world without Architects to draw and think. Designing a home for a business. The past had a constructor to build but an Architect was probably not made as a job. Today is Architects are everywhere to be planning to build a unit.

 

The future is coming and Architects will be in the future!Another reason is that without Architects every building would have been made really not good, like the foundation would be horrible. The Architects have the special type of tools and planning Ideas. The Architects are specialized to help people with their redesigning a home. So that’s why Architects are going to be in the future!

200 Years as a Cobbler

  1.      Now that you have created advertisements for your shoe company, what changes have taken over the last 200 years? What were the major causes of those changes?

 

The thing that changed in the last 200 years is that the shoes are designed now have any type of colors and sometimes you can pick your own color or customize your color. The major causes of the changes is that the cobbler that makes shoes now in 2015 is that it’s not just boots and sneakers now they have like flats and sandals and like flip flops like in 1815 they didn’t even sell those things that are getting sold now. The reason why it changed is because I don’t think the people that had to just where 2 pairs of shoes i don’t think they liked that because it probably didn’t go with what they wore because the only color they had is black and brown.

  1.      What will the shoe business be like in 50 years? How will you shop? What will they be made out of? What else will a company sell with the shoes?  Be creative, but thoughtful, with your answer.  Who knows, you might be doing this as a career in 50 years.

 

My shoe business will be way more expensive because it is going to be a new year and it is going to be new things going on also it wouldn’t be that great either because it is going to be a lot more expensive than it is now and back then. I will be able to shop really bad because it is going to be more money that you have to give up and also you have to do more things that you probably wouldn’t like because you might have to more paper work and fill out more things if you order things. The shoes will be made out of the same material because i think the material that is being put in shoes now is more comfortable than other material that is getting put in shoes. My company will sell t-shirts pants and other things that people will need in a current time. Also my price for the t-shirts and stuff is going to be not that expensive because they are different product.
