When I started college (about 11 years ago) I was hired to work
in the web development office of the college IT department. My older brother also worked there. He told me the woman I would be working for was Chinese. I was very nervous because I didn’t know anyone who was Chinese and I was afraid it would be embarrassing if I couldn’t understand what she was saying. Actually I only met her a few times and she left the job shortly after to move back to China. Now I have a lot of chinese friends and I don’t worry about small things like having to ask someone to repeat when I don’t understand.
