Amazing
Holiday
Last holiday was such an amazing
holiday. It was different from my other holiday. Usually I spent my holiday
with sleeping, eating, hanging out with friends, and other useless activities.
I filled my last holiday with working in home industry. At first, I worked
there to earn money, so I could buy new shoes with my own money. Later on, it
happened to be an unforgettable experience I ever do.
First day of work, I went with a
new spirit. I was so excited and expecting a lot of new things I will learn. I
arrived at 8.00 a.m. and no one there. It turned out that I was too early.
Other workers arrived at 9.00 a.m. the first thing that I learn was how to make
ribbon, so I have to make around 300 ribbons by myself. At first, it was very
hard for me to understand the way to make it, but later on I could make 300
ribbons easily in short time. Others thing that I learn as cooking cupcake and
pudding, make souvenirs for wedding and birthday party, also decorate birthday
party.
Second day of work was a boring
day. I went at 9.00 a.m. and arrived at 9.30 a.m. Fortunately, my boss didn’t mad at me for
being late I spent my second day of working with watching television, eating
snack, even sleeping. There weren’t any order for that day, so we just do
nothing, and left work early.
The third day was such a hectic
and tiring day. There were a lot of orders on that day. It was around 200
birthday souvenir and 100 wedding souvenir, there were only 4 workers, so we
split it into half. I went home late, about 7.00 p.m. I was too tired at that
time to the point I had thoughts to stop working because I think it was hard
and tiring. Luckily, my mom suggested me to go on because she thinks it was
such a waste, so I continued working until one month.
Day by day passed by, until the
day I told my boss that I had to stop working because my college will start
soon. At first, she was mad at me because I didn’t tell her early. But the next
day she gave me my first salary and told me to study hard and be successful person.
I was so happy. Finally, I got my first salary, it wasn’t that much, around 800
thousand rupiah. I’m glad I didn’t stop working at that day, because I got a
lot of new experiences, I made new friends, I bought new shoes, and of course I
learn how hard it is to make money, so I could value it in the future.
