On Take Your Kids to Work Day, I went to my family-owned business at Henderson Mall with my mom and my grandmother. I spent the day helping customers who entered, and I assisted them with their needs. I sold three items which consisted of a Hat, a Bag, and a beautiful hand-made wallet from Iran. I also learned how to alternate certain types of clothing to a customer’s needs from my grandmother who has been sewing since she was twelve years old!

On November 1, I heard lots of mechanical sounds, I smelt fabric, and I felt string, fabric, and sewing machines. Something about my work environment that would motivate me to attend work every day is the colorful range of items in the store. Also, all the sewing projects and how you can make something amazing from just one piece of fabric. If the environment of the workplace were unorganized and dirty, that would discourage me from attending work every day. One thing I found interesting about my workplace was the variety of alterations that can be made to clothing.
