During the winter holiday, I did a 10-hours volunteer work in XinHua Bookshop near my home. I felt it is very interesting. When I was a young child, I liked reading books very much. At that time, I thought the happiest job was to be a salesman in a bookshop. Because salesman there didn’t need to do many though works, they just walked around the bookshop to find people needed help to help them. The most important, they could read books without paying money.
When I was a volunteer in the bookshop, I changed my mind. I found this job isn’t so easy. On the 1st day, a young child wanted to look for a book but he forgot the name. He tried his best to describe that book to me; I also tried my best to look for that book. In the end, we still couldn’t find that book. At this time, the manager came to me; he asked that child several questions about that book, shortly after, the child found that book and left the bookshop happily. After the child left the bookshop, I asked the manager why he could find the book. He smiled, then he told me the answer: Firstly, I should ask shoppers the details of the books they want to buy, as many as possible, the questions must be regular, then you used these details to inference which books they were. I also needed to know much information about the books, or you also didn’t know the books that shoppers wanted to buy, still couldn’t find the books. This is an important experience.
Not all the shoppers were very easy to communicate with. On February 3nd, when I walked around the bookshop, I found a boy sitting on some books. As a volunteer, I told him not to sit on the books. He looked at me without saying any words, and then he kept reading books. I felt very
Angry and argued with him loudly. At last, we almost fought with each other. Luckily, the manager came to interpose us, then that boy went away. After that, the manager told me: “If you were really one employee in the bookshop and did this, I would ask you to go home.” From this event, I knew shoppers were God to the bookshop. This is a useful lesson.
I also did one hour volunteer work for Ms. Hadley. My job was to clean the art room. I thought it’s very interesting to be a volunteer for her. During the volunteer time, we also chatted with each other about our different cultures. I knew lots of knowledge about Canada that day and felt very amazing. This kind of knowledge is very important to me.
In conclusion, to be a volunteer can help other people and you also will feel happy. From this activity, you also can get lots of knowledge and experience. So why don’t be a volunteer? “If you do volunteer work once, you will keep doing it”, I promise.
