I am a customer

Maybe it's a natural characteristic that girls like shopping.when I am a little girl,mother was always compelled to pay for the things like toys and beautiful dresses that I want .And now I enjoy the time of shopping with my roommates at weekends.
It isn't true that each experience of shopping is comfortable .Once I went to shiquan street with my friend and we found a small shop with attractive clothes .However the shop owner is very unfriendly ,she seemed to pay no attention to us .when we got close to one of the dresses she said"Don't touch the clothes!".She maybe mean that we sutdents were't able to afford the clothes.I was very angry that time .Whatever whether I can afford the things I am a customer.The way that owner treated me let me make the decision that I will never go to her shop again.
What I want to say is I am a customer .We should learn to be kind to others even some strangers.We will get the same way that we treat to others.

面试不要问这八大问题

When they finish quizzing you,interviewers always ask, "So, do you have any questions?" That's your cue to show off your research with queries about the company's competitors, plans for growth, specific products, etc. But some questions can make you seem ill-prepared, overeager or disagreeable. Here are eight commonly asked bloopers.
1. What, exactly, does your company do?
Never pose questions that a library search could have answered.
2. What does the job pay?
Avoid money discussions until the interviewer makes you an offer.
3. How many vacation and personal days do you allow?
Makes you sound lazy--again, wait for the offer.
4. How long will it take me to get promoted?
Try a less pushy version: "Can you describe what my career advancement track might be like?"
5. Is that your husband in the picture on your desk?
Don't initiate a personal discussion.Stick to questions about her career path.
6. What are you going to do about the poor performance of Product X?
Reframe the question positively. "What plans do you have to build sales for Product X?"
7. What's your company's track record on promoting women and minorities?
A legitimate question, but interviewers may worry that you'll sue if you don't advance quickly. Instead, check out the company' s reputation through the industry grapevine.
8. So, when do I start?
A slightly obnoxious quip. Don't invite yourself into the job.
