About three years ago, my job is getting really boring. I liked this small grocery shop where I worked as a cashier and enjoyed working with my colleagues. But I needed a change. I couldn’t tell exactly whether I wanted to become a manager in the large supermarket or to open my own shop to sell different souvenirs from different countries. I thought those two works would be more interesting and that I would have the chance to visit different countries. Travelling is one of my hobby and dream at the same time. My father said that I didn't have enough experience and money to start a new business, that's why I decided to apply for a job of a manager.
However, I knew that the nearest supermarket where I could find a job required from their applicants and employees to know German. I studied this language at school, but I didn't have much practice in German, since I was 18. So I had to improve my writing, reading and speaking skills as quickly as possible to apply for a vacant position.
To begin with, I asked my younger sister to give me her German textbook. She also gave me a lot of useful references for online websites with different exercises and activities for those who wanted to practice their German skills. After that, I started making different tasks online for 20-25 minutes every day. I looked up the meaning of any unknown words in my dictionary. Soon I could understand nearly everything I read or watch on youtube learning videos. Then I went to a German class at a language school in my city where there was the special express course. I did it twice a week. In the end, after about 10 months, I could understand and speak German quite well.
I decided to send my application letter for management jobs at several supermarkets and last month I got an offer of a job in one of the most famous supermarket line that had more than 1000 shops in our country. My new job start in October, so I've got two month training in Hamburg, where the main office of our supermarket line is located.
I'm really excited about going to visit Germany and spend about two months here.
