Ленивый Боб
The Lazy Bob was very upset with that situation. He did not want to work at all. However, he loved his mother, so the next day in the morning he left his place for searching for a job.
Bob got a job. At first, he did not find it hard. It seemed to be simple. He got a job as a cleaner in a shop. He was given a bucket and a mop and he was told to wash the floor. But he had never seen the things and he had never washed the floor yet. In the computer virtual world the things started to act when you just pressed them. The young man looked and looked at the mop and the bucket, felt them, pressed them from different sides, but nothing happened. He was not able to do his job. In the evening he was fired.
He returned home feeling very upset and told his mother about his day. «How silly you are» said his mother.
«You had to pour some water into the bucket, put the mop into it to make it wet well and then to rub the floor with it».
«I see», said Bob.
«Now I know how to work and next time I will try to do my best», said Bob.
The next day Bob looked for a job again. He was lucky he got a job in a restaurant «Five Guys». He had to wash the dishes. That time he knew exactly what «washing» meant.
Bob took a bucket, put the dishes in it, poured some water, But at the moment he was going to put the mop into the bucket to wash the dishes the owner fired him.
«Mother, I had been fired again. Even faster than yesterday, the owner of the restaurant called me the fool. I did what you had told me and how I was taught by you!» said Bob.
Bob could not stop complaining in the evening. «You had to fill the sink with water and put the dishes there, take a sponge, a washing liquid «Fairy» and rub the dishes well» said his mother.
On the third day Bob kept trying looking for a job. But in a small English town there was only one shop and one restaurant «Five Guys». What could he do?
