I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台)in her general store.    71    I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”

At first I was paid in candy.      72     I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account.    73 

By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that the promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.  74 

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. _ 75__ expect they are NO longer women purchasing cosmetics (        ) from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

B.   Before long , she let me sir there by myself.

C.     I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.
