🖥🥳Meet Bun, his first day at the front desk, part 1/2🥳🖥 (A1 beginners to intermediate, present simple, questions, negations, short answers)

a new career has started

My name is Bun. Today is my first day at a 5-star hotel. I wake up very early. I take a shower and put on my uniform. I eat a small breakfast. Then I take the bus to the hotel. I feel a little nervous and happy.

When I arrive, my manager shows me the lobby. He teaches me how to greet guests. I say, “Good morning, welcome to our hotel!” many times. I help guests with check-in. I give them their room keys. Some guests ask questions about the hotel. I try to answer politely. I smile and speak slowly.

At lunchtime, I sit with my new coworkers. They talk to me. They are very kind and friendly. In the afternoon, I answer phone calls. I write messages and help guests with small problems. I learn a lot today.

When my shift ends, I feel tired but happy. I take the bus home. I think about my first day. It is a good day. I am excited for tomorrow.
