My parents operated a small restaurant in Seattle. It was open twenty-four hours a day, six days a week. And my first real job,when I was six years old,was 31 the diners’ shoes. My father had done it when he was young,so he taught me 32 to do it efficiently(有效地),telling me to 33 to Re-shine the shoes if the customer wasn’t 34 .
Working in the restaurant was a cause of great 35 because I was also working for the good of the family. But my father 36 that I had to meet certain standards(标准) to be part of the team. I 37 to be punctual(守时的),hard-working,and polite to the 38 .
I was 39 paid for the work I did at the restaurant. One day I made the mistake of advising Dad that he 40 give me $10 a week. He said,“OK. How about you paying me for three meals a day you have here? And 41 the times you bring in your friends for free soft drinks?” He 42 I owed him about $40 a week.
I remember returning to Seattle after being 43 in the US Army for about two years. I had just been promoted(升迁) to Captain at that time. And full of pride,I walked into my parents’ restaurant,but the 44 thing Dad said was,“How about your 45 up tonight?” I couldn’t 46 my ears! I am an officer in the Army! But it didn’t 47 as far as Dad was concerned,I was just 48 member of the team. I reached for the mop(拖把). Working for Dad has taught me the devotion to a 49 is above all. It has nothing to do with 50 that team is involved in a family restaurant or the US Army.
