When my father found out that I was going to start work immediately after finishing school, he was rather disappointed. He must have known things were going this way, but I guess he was hoping for some kind of miracle which would help mi continue my education. When I told him I already committed to start in a particular company, he realised there is no way back. He was crushed. Unlike him I was feeling well and hopeful. Well, it was not the dream job for starting a career, but I was not dreaming for big professional heights. My aim was my father to work less, because he was growing old and supporting financially our family was getting harder for him.
My work was not so difficult or tough. My colleges in this Children’s Party Center were very nice and accepted me readily in the team. My obligations were simple. The only new things I had to learn were the specifics of different cleaning products.
I was very busy all day long. Children who came to our center were making a big mess, while having fun, but they are children – their job is to make a mess 🙂
My colleagues soon infected me with positive attitude. Man could not be gloomy or have negative taught when he is surrounded by little naughty joyful kids!
I was doing my job as a cleaner well. It was easy, because the atmosphere was friendly and I had desire to learn. I had some experience too. I helped my mom cleaning our house since I was 12.
I was very proud at the end of my first week of working in the Children’s Party Center. I was proud, because then I received my first pay check. Before coming home I ran to the local shop and bought some things to celebrate this. Well, I could not buy everything I wanted, but who can? Especially after only a week working…
That evening my family had a very good time. We had not done it for so long… This constant concern, which was floating in the air of our home was decreased. My brothers and my sister were making a big noise and were laughing out loud. My mother was looking happy. My father was proud too, but I saw him wipe a tear from time to time. It was still hard for him to accept that his little girl grows as an adult responsible person.
