中文字幕

Arroyo is a famous TV host. At the age of 15, she accidentally walked into a bookstore in her hometown and started looking at the books on the shelves. Behind the hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy counter, John Smith, asked her if she wanted to work. She needed to go to college and start saving, so she said yes.

Gloria worked in school during the summer and worked to help pay for her freshman year of college. During college, she would work many other jobs: she worked in the student union's coffee shop, was a hotel cleaner, and even mapped for the forest service. But selling books is one of the most satisfying jobs.

One day, a woman walked into the bookstore and asked for Arroyo's cancer books. The woman looked nervous. Gloria showed her almost every other book they found that they could order. The woman left the store with less worries, and Arroyo always remembers the pride (pride) she felt in helping her customers (customers).

Years later, as a television host, Gloria heard about a child who was born with problems with his fingers and hands. His family could not afford the surgery and the child lived in shame, hiding with his hands in his pockets all the time.

The story of Gloria persuading (persuading) her boss to let her do it. After the story aired, some doctors said they were offering to perform the procedure for free.

Gloria visits the boy in the hospital after surgery. The first thing he did was hold up his repair hands and say, "Thank you." What a sweet feeling of satisfaction Gloria thought!

At Smith's Bookstore, Gloria was always aware that she would be working for customers, not stocking. Today, the same. Television stations were pursuing her, but she felt she should serve people who watched programs that helped them better understand the world.
