You Are Going Places
I work at a local restaurant in town as cashier, seater and waiter.
I went to work feeling
小题1:
. And to make things worse, I was busy that evening.
It’s the same thing over and over again.
小题2:
with customers who complain about their
food and where they are
小题3:
is too big or too small. Little things like that tend to
小题4:
a lot of us
小题5:
but we manage to deal with it.
Three elderly ladies walked in and sat by the windows. It happened to be the very
小题6:
near where I keep the dirty
小题7:
in the boxes. Trying to keep up with all the dirty tables,
customers leaving and coming in and
小题8:
running all over the house, it was crazy.
小题9:
these elderly women were watching
小题10:
I was working to make sure every table was clean
and ready for the next customers.
When they
小题11:
their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me
for a while about school, how I was doing, what
小题12:
I was in and what I planned to do in
the future.
小题13:
they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a
小题14:
and gentle voice, “You are going places. And that was it.” They left the
小题15:
and I had tears
in my eyes, because they gave me
小题16:
to believe in myself. They
小题17:
my spirit from
being down and gave me a
小题18:
to keep on working hard.
People used to tell me that I couldn’t have a career in
小题19:
until I had a degree. I’m now
a co-anchor(联合支持人)of a student-produced television
小题20:
. And the best thing is:
I’m only 17 years old and I am a senior in high school.
