At one time I was unemployed and money was running short. I needed a job 38 but it seemed as if no one was hiring. A very good friend of mine 39 me one day with an offer. “I’m going to have to let this job go and I was wondering if you would like to take it 40 ?” “That would be great,”I replied. I went to speak with the 41 and he said he could use me, but never gave me a start date. Really needing the job, I made it a point to go and 42 with him every day. Finally he said, “You can start Monday morning.” I showed up for 43 extra early, ready to do my best. When I went inside I was 44 that I would be buffing(抛光) the floors. My friend was there to show me how to 45 the buffer. “It's easy,”he said, running the machine very 46 . He handed it over to me and said, “Here, you give it a try.” I grabbed the handles with a “no problem” 47 . To my surprise, the buffer was rather 48 to operate.

For about a week, I 52 with the buffer, putting all my weight and 53 into it. Eventually, I learned the 54 was not to struggle with it at all, just go 55 the flow of it, and by the second week, I was 56 and running it with one hand. A few months later, I thought back and wondered what 57 have happened if I had given up that first week. I certainly would not have had the new found confidence or a paycheck.
