Life Will Be Better

He was poor. He needed more money. He needed a good job. He had a job. But it wasn't a good

job. It was a bad job. He was a waiter. He worked in a restaurant. It was a cheap restaurant. The meals were

cheap. The customers were cheap. They usually gave him quarters for tips. Sometimes they gave him a dollar.

Sometimes they gave him nothing. That made him angry. Why did they give him nothing? He was polite.

He was helpful. Yet they gave him nothing. He wanted to kick those customers. But then he would go to jail.

He didn't want to go to jail. So he went to school. School was free. He wanted to be a mechanic. He liked to

fix things. He wanted to fix cars. He wanted to own a car shop. He would make money. He would hire other

mechanics. They would work for him. He would buy a house. He would get married. He would have a

family. Life would be good. Right now life was bad. But he would make it better.
