(单词翻译:单击)

I've been job hunting for about eight months.
在八个月的时间里,我一直在找工作。

A few weeks ago I went to an interview and handed off my car to the valet guy.
几周以前,我开车参加一个面试,把车子交给停车的侍者。

As I was waiting for the elevator I heard him tell his coworker that he would kill for a coffee, so after my interview I stopped at the cafe in the lobby and grabbed one for him.
在我等电梯的时候,我听见他对他的同事说自己超想来一杯咖啡,于是面试结束,我在门廊顺便买了一杯给他。

He was super grateful and asked for my business card.
他显得非常感动,还要了张我的名片。

I gave it to him, thinking maybe he wanted to send me a thank you email or something.
我给了他一张,想着他无非会写封感谢邮件或者做之类(表达谢意)的事情。

The next day I got a call from the manager at this big staffing agency in our city. She was the valet guy's cousin and he asked her to call me. I ended up meeting with her in person, and after only a week she found me my dream job. Today was my first day, and it went perfectly.
隔天我就接到了那个停车侍者表姐的电话,原来她就是我们当地最大职介结构经理,而且就是那个侍者叫她打给我的。职介经理亲自和我会面约谈,短短一周她就帮我找到了梦寐以求的工作。今天是我上班的第一天,进展非常顺利。

Be nice to everyone, all the time.
(我的心得是)要把体恤他人,常挂心间。
