This is my little story about patience. I was selected into Summer Youth Employment Program, which called SYEP this year. I chose library as my workplace. There was a program in the library called Free Summer Meals. This program provided free lunch for the children at the ages from 0 to 18. My supervisor sent me to provide food for the children. I was always patience to say what we have today and ask the children what they wanted today. In addition, I bent my waist to let the children listen clearly. One day, my supervisor talked to me before the program began. He said I was too patience and the menu was almost the same every day, you didn’t need to bend your waist to ask them. If they wanted the meal, they could choose in ten seconds and they didn’t need so much time. I was shocked at it. Was I very patient? He asked a question given four choices. If you saw a person that wanted to jump on the train and the train was coming what would you do? A: Let the person jump. B: Advise the person to wait for a train to pass. C: Persuade the person to stop jumping. D: Ask for help. I chose C since I thought life was important and we should cherish our life. However, he thought I was very patient. I didn’t know I was very patient. On the other hand, I just thought I did what I needed to do. Patience was important in our life and it could let you toward success.
