A yellow title banner reads "SMBC PRESENTS: JOB TIPS ~ EPISODE ONE ~ ENSURE JOB SECURITY BY MEETING YOUR FUTURE COMPETITION." Below, a gray-haired teacher in glasses and a yellow polo shirt stands at a green chalkboard, pointer in hand, lecturing to the silhouetted heads of students. The chalkboard reads "EXACTLY THE SAME" above a triangle, an equals sign, and a square — implying the lesson teaches that obviously different things are identical, so future competitors learn nothing useful. Votey: a sheet of paper labeled "NON-EXISTANT" showing a hand-drawn circle and a slash, suggesting the quality of the education provided is nonexistent.
