11. 想一起工作/学习的人

Off the top of my head, the first person that comes to mind is my co-worker Lisa. I know her because of a part-time job I had during last summer vacation, where my job responsibility was mainly selling portable power banks. Lisa was our team leader and I really liked working with her.

I worked there for a whole summer holiday, so we worked together for two months. I still remember that on a Saturday morning, our boss asked us to reach the sales target on time. However,
after I worked for a whole morning, I felt like I was out of my depth because there were barely any customers in the store. When I was worried sick about failing to meet the target, Lisa came to me and suggested that I go out and find deals instead of just waiting in the shop. And she even kindly taught me some sales tricks that I had never learned before.

Thanks to Lisa, I managed to achieve the goal that day. Since then, I often consulted her about matters that I didn’t know how to handle. And she always helped me think outside of the box and encouraged me to have the nerve to break the routine. I was so happy I could have such an accountable68 and helpful colleague. If possible, I hope I can work with her again in the future. She is literally69 the best colleague I’ve ever had.

68 accountable: 负责任的
69 literally: 不夸张的说
