“I'm very tired from working here,” said Jean to her friend Kate, “I'm on my feet from morning to night.For the first quarter of the day, I clean up the counter(柜台)and set the tables.For the next quarter, I help in the kitchen.For the second half of my workday, I take orders at the counters.”
“Kate, I wish I had your job,” Jean went on.“For four hours you just sit at the cash register (收款台)taking in money.”
