I'm in the restaurant business,and Iclose the place just about every night.It's cool,but I have one situation.My dishwasher is riding his bike to work.He rides his bike against rain sleet(凍雨) or cold,and his better days are when it's nice.That's not the problem.The problem is that he's over sixty and being in the restaurant business.He rides to his first job in the morning,returns home to take a nap,and then heads towardme for his second job.
While he's finishing up in the dish room,I'm unlocking his bike,riding it tomy truck,getting the bike in the truck and closing it for a warm safe ride home at the same time.Igo back in,take all the garbage out,grab the floormats and head back to the office to finish my work so we can get out of there!
At the end of the night,Iget him and his bike home.Ihelp people who need my help.In life,it's not so much about improving your life but about being important in someone else's life.
This creates some type of bond.You find out things you never knew about that person.Ipullup to his house,take the bike out,and put the kickstand(支架)down.While I'm doing all of this,he's just getting out of the truck.He walks around to the back where I am,shakesmy hand,and says “Thank you.” “No,thank you,My Dishwasher.”
