My First Job

I’ll never forget the first day of my first job.【1】. The company sold carpets and floor tiles (地板砖)and I had several shops in the area.

of tiles fell out onto my foot. Ooooooww! I jumped up and down the street on one leg. It was very painful! I was able to walk on one and a half feet up to the house with the box of tiles.

The afternoon was getting very hot. I hadn’t eaten or drunk anything and didn’t have any water in the car. When I went through the next town, I met a traffic jam. 【5】. Two hours later, I got to the last shop. It was 6’clock. What a bad day!
