The New Intern Is a Darling Workhorse

Our company hired a recent college graduate who said she was still just a little girl and asked me to look after her.

At a business dinner, she ordered a whole table of “kid food” and even tried to force mango shaved ice into our client’s mouth, despite knowing they were allergic to mangoes.

“Just try a little! You’re allergic to mangoes? But this is shaved ice, and it’s delicious!”

“What’s wrong with what I ordered? I’m still a kid, and this is what I like!”

As her supervisor, I ended up shouldering countless messes she caused, until I was exhausted and ready to collapse.

She showed no gratitude. Worse, after getting close to the boss’s son, she tearfully demanded that I be fired.

“I don’t know why Sister Ningning has to pick on me. We’re both just trying our best to get by!”

On my way home, I got into a car accident because I was distracted.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day of the business dinner, smiling as I watched her pour mango juice into the client’s tea.
