Selling was a blast Now I understand the process my parents go through paying bills It was hard to be calm during the job interview I learned that to pay off the loan is not as easy as it sounds Being president of the bank was complicated yet fun I really think the bank business is what I am most interested in My number one shop was the Broadcast center because I owned it Now I see how it feels to have a real job and to work as a team I liked counting the money that was going to pay back the bank loan Now I know why my mom is so tired after working
