my 1st ever salary
i was checking ma bank statement just now through ibanking and i never notice that i’ve been earning such amount of $ and spending more or else of that amount. I m like the more i earn, the more i spend. thrifty?? nah.. hardly.
then i recalled when is the last time i earned $ for the 1st time when i made $ n i didnt have chance to spend a single cent at all.
It was almost 2 decades ago. i worked as a dish washer at cold drink shop in yangon.
i washed all the cups n glasses from 6pm- 9 or10pm? (cant rem the time exactly) .It was in summer. the weather was freaking hot and ppl liked to have cold drink in the evening.the stall was kinda busy till no one free to do washing. so i got that job.
i was like grade-1 or 2? i was kinda shorty and i couldnt reach to counter sink n as the result, i stood on the stool and washed all the dishes n glasses throughout the evening.
i was happy thou i been standing all the way on the stool.whoever been to the cold drink shop 20 yrs ago, they could see a lil gal standing on the stool and washing all the stuff.
surprisingly, i never break those glasses b4and i could clean very sparkling too.
my salary?5 kyat/day and free drink from the shop.
i was happy like heaven whenever i received that 5 kyat..n i saved that $ cos i was young and i didnt know what to buy n spend on what?
now is like.. wow..when comes to middle of the month,my account started to show minus.
when comes to end of the month, i started to ask $ back from ma folk. hehe.
wouldnt it be great if i become tt lil gal who doesnt noe what to spend n just keep saving??
can lah, if i become 2 decades younger.
