My father had a small business, employing（雇用）fifteen people at any given time. We sold all kinds of milk products. I had worked for my father since I was young,       did all seven kids in my family.
One day, we had a new employee, Debbie, who wanted to work in the store for the summer. She had      done this type of work before, but planned to give it her all.
On her first day, Debbie made just about every mistake in the    . She charged the wrong prices for items, she gave the wrong bag of food to the wrong customer, and she     and broke a half gallon of milk. The torture（折磨）of watching her fighting her way was too much for me. I went into my father’s office and said, “Please go out there and put her out of her misery（苦恼）.” I       him to walk right into the store and let her go away from our store.
Since my father’s office was situated within view of the sales counter, he had surely       what I was talking about. He sat,      , for a moment. Then he got up from his desk and walked over to Debbie, who was standing behind the counter.
“Debbie,” he said, as he put his hand       on her shoulder. “I have been watching you all day, and I saw how you      Mrs. Forbush.”
Debbie’s face turned red and tears began to      in her eyes as she tried hard to remember Mrs. Forbush from the many women she had given the wrong change to or drop off her milk onto the floor.
My father continued, “I’ve never seen Mrs. Forbush be so       to any one of my employees before. You really knew how to deal with her. I am sure that she is going to want you to     her every time she comes in. Keep up the good work.”
In return for being a wise and kind employer, my father got a trusty and hardworking employee for fifteen years … and a friend for life.
