12th October, 2008 Newcomers

Today newcomers started working as a dishwasher at the Sandbar.
In a sense they are younger workers of me.

The one is named 'Nelson', who is forty eight years-old men.
He must be Asian, but I don't know where he is from yet.
Maybe I guess he is from China.
Next time I work together I'll ask him.

The other one is named... I forgot.
He is from Philippine, twenty six years-old man.
He arrived at Vancouver three days ago.
He was like he sends money to his family in his hometown every week.
When I listened it, I thought his responsibility was totally different from me.

Actually it is difficult and interesting for me to teach how to work in English.
But I often feel my English isn't improved.

今日、サンドバーに新しいディッシウオッシャー達が来た。
ある意味、僕の後輩になる。

一人は’ネルソン’という４８歳のおっちゃん。
アジア人には間違いないがどこの出身かまだ知らない。
多分、中国出身。
次に一緒に仕事する時に聞いてみよう。

もう一人は・・・、名前を忘れてしまった。
彼はフィリピン出身の２６歳の男性。
３日前にバンクーバーに来た。
毎週、故郷の家族にお金を送っているとの事。
背負っているものが違う。

英語で仕事を教えるのは難しくて面白い。
でも自分の英語力が改善されていないことを実感。
