A young man entered the last interview of a company. The boss found that the young man's school grades were very good.
"Did you get any scholarships(奖学金) in school?" the boss asked. "No," the young man answered. "Did your father pay for your school fees (学费)?"the boss asked. "My father passed away when I was one year old, so my mother paid for my school fees," the young man answered.
"Where did your mother work?" the boss asked. "My mother cleaned clothes," the young man said. The boss looked at the young man's hands. He had a pair of smooth and perfect hands.
"Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?" the boss asked. "Never," the young man answered. "I have a request," the boss said. "When you go back home today, go and clean your mother's hands, and then see me tomorrow morning.
The young man felt that his chance of getting the job was high. When he went back. He happily asked his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange, happy but with mixed feelings. She showed her hands to the kid. The young man cleaned his mother's hands slowly. His tears fell as he did that. It was the first time he had noticed his mother's hands were so wrinkled, he realized it was this pair of hands that helped him pay the fees.
The next morning, the young man went to the boss. "I cleaned my mother's hands, and I now that without my mother, I would not be the person I am today, "he said.
"This is what I am looking for in my manager," the boss said. "I want a person who can pectate(感激)the help of others lo get things done. You get the job!"
