My First Job

I started work at 8:00 on Monday morning and made my first mistake at 8:05. I hadn’t driven that type of van before. I let too much petrol into the engine . So I had to wait for twenty minutes. 2. .

I drove to one house to deliver a carpet. There was a problem, though. When I looked in the back of the van, the carpet wasn’t there. Then I remembered the boss had told me to collect the carpet from another shop. I’d forgotten to do that. I drove to the shop in the next town. 3.. All the shops are closed on Monday afternoons. I would have to call again the next day instead.
