He 39 on a lot of his plumbing knowledge to me in our 40 talks and would inspire me to be confident in the things I had learned from him and on the job.I still remember 41 a customer came into the 42 looking for help.I started to shy away,feeling 43_of myself.Harry said,“Go ahead.kid.you 44 do it.You have to leave the nest sometime and now is the time.”He was right-
Hatry was a humble(谦逊的)man.One day I complained when asked to 45 the floor in the store and Hatry told me, “Kid,it’s part of the job and, 46 ,you’re being paid.”He would grab the broom and start singing 1 was always 47 by how this gentle man could 48 an unpleasant task into a learning 49 for me.
I always wanted to be like him.He never 50 to let little things annoy him.He said,“Life was too 5l for that.”
