The Assembly Line Worker

In 1949, when I was 13, my family managed to escape China, and a year later, we made our way to New York City.
My first years in America was spent on learning and trying to get by in school. But by my senior year, I was near the top of the
class.
Still, I was nervous as I looked for work that summer. I had never been interviewed for a job. But my father was out of
work, and I had to help support the family. I looked through the want ads every morning and was called to arrange
appointment. Finally, I looked a job on the Assembly-Line at the Swingline, Inc. staplers factory in Long Island City (in New
York City). Placing little red top on tiny staplers was boring, but it was great to earn $40 a week.
