MY FIRST JOB
0 My first own. official job was as a paper-girl for the Weekly own
00 Globe in England. I was not quite thirteen years old at the √
1 time. I remember the first morning I started work, having
2 to deliver about sixty newspapers to their various houses in
3 our neighbourhood. When I started at six o’clock in the
4 morning and finished at around 8:15, in time to dash off
5 to school, which was a twenty-minute walk from the home.
6 My father was so proud of my progress that he decided to
7 buy me a second-hand bicycle, which ait out my workload
8 in half. I learned a few of important lessons at the job, too.
9 The first lesson was punctuality. If their papers weren’t
10 delivered on time, customers would telephone to the shop
11 and complain. Another lesson I learned concerned about
12 customer service. When regular customers were pleased
13 with my work, they gave to me generous tips and presents
14 at Christmas. Finally, I learned how to handle money,
15 something that it has been invaluable to me ever since.
