So just a while ago I was wrapping some Christmas presents. YEAHHH it's so late I know, but I have been too busy especially after my final exams, that's right, even more occupied than my exam period.

I dunno why, but a few days ago I was really determined to find my boss and his wife a Christmas gift. It's not that I want to earn favour or anything, but I don't know why though, but I really think it's the least I can do to thank them.

Though this is my first job, I never imainged there are actually employers like this. For one thing, I thought meals were quite rare, but since my first day there, they provided me with dinner and lunch for every shift I do. Not only so, my lady boss would even bring cakes and fuits out from the fridge to share with me. Whenever they make a trip, they wouldn't forget to bring a small present for me. When my lady boss came back from Hong Kong, she got me this cute little purse. A few weeks ago the couple came back from an Europe trip, they even bought me a very nice gift from France. I was really touched, I'm not their daughter nor their friend, but they're always so considerate.

I can never forget the time when school started, last term actually. I was literally going mad because of all the schedule conflicts and course problems, there were suddenly lots of dilemmas (I'm the type of person who can be easily troubled by small things when it's that time of the month). Anyway, due to school, I had already greatly reduced my hours to two hours every shift, which is just amazingly ridiculous I know. But I don't think that solves the problem. However much I want to continue to work with these wonderful people, I thought the only way was to quit my job, as I could not handle the schedule.

After a few days of serious consideration, finally on my first two hour shift, I told my lady boss about my problem. Before I even talked about quitting, right away she said "then just do however much you think you can handle". I replied that I thought this isn't possible as she would need someone to help her close the shop everyday. "It's okay, I can close the shop myself," she replied casually. I guess she noticed my concern because she kept on assuring me that school is more important and that the shop wouldn't be too busy anyway. I really thought I was going to weep, I didn't know how to express my gratitude. Right after, she told me that she prepared some soup and macroni for me inside and that I should have dinner before I start working. I never expected to get dinner on just a two hour shift, but I insisted that I'll finish some work first. They were just very normal dishes, but that evening's dinner was one of the best meals I ever had.
