First job
Jun
My sister got already a her first job as a cashier in a supermarket. At first she got difficulties since the first shop that she had her training, there was no scan or barcode marchines. She was delighted when her boss transfered her to their big shop with complete cashier equipment like scanners, a motorola Symbol LS2208 barcodes. She was very happy about her transfer and she found also a new friend in there. Hope she will love her work very much.
Friday Night Out and Direct TV
Jun
I went out with my friends after work for a drink and I bumped into an old friend, who surprisingly was the owner of the bar. I was that lucky or what? Drinks were on the house! My friends really enjoyed their stay at the bar. Aside from the free drinks, there was a big flat screen TV where we, I mean, they, watched a football game. I am not really a big fan so I just chatted with my old friend. He was my high school friend and classmate. The news I knew about him was that he migrated abroad with his family, which he confirmed. He still decided to settle in our place because he felt that the place is really his home.
Afterwards, we started talking about his business, a Direct TV offers. He is currently managing three business establishments and the latest improvement was the TV installed on every business he has. It really attracts customers especially those who like information and those who loves sports. Thanks to Directv business he had improved his business and increase profits in no time.
