People met on my backpacking 225 - My part-time work in the US taught me about American culture.

For approximately a year, I had complete freedom in the United States, the world's most free and biggest country. Since I was a youngster, I've lived at Busan's harbor, where large foreign ships dock. I was attracted by the images in secondary school English textbooks. (*The Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, the Lincoln Presidential Memorial, Washington Square, the UN Building, the Arlington National Cemetery, San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, the White House and Capitol Hill, Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, Death Valley, and Redwood.) Some of the most powerful and lasting sites are Schenandore National Park in Virginia, Cherokee Indian Village in N. Carolina, and the 82nd Airborne Division in N. Carolina.

The United States' national parks are beyond comprehension. Even if you spend one week, it would be difficult to see the parks in the Blue Ridge and Appalachian Mountains. Fortunately, I was able to see these two locations while driving with my American friends. Another thing I'll never forget is the military tour in N. Carolina. The 82nd Airborne Division is a highly regarded and successful organization in US military history. The scale of all the facilities and personnel here was enormous. I gave up when I was told there was a bus in the compound that took approximately an hour to get around.

**The topic today is about a variety of part-time jobs that I held in the USA. Here's what I saw, heard, and felt while working at 7-Eleven (*Maryland Frederick) for a week. (*I always prefer hands-on experience. I despise listening to folks who have little experience. Anyway, the job hours were from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. It's unpopular since it involved risk. The less popular spot was the Liquor Store. It's because pistol robberies were common. (*I only spent an hour here, where a gunshot was fired a few days earlier.)

Frederick, Maryland, was a pretty quiet community. Around 3 a.m., people began to enter the store after filling their automobiles with gasoline from the dispenser in front of it. They largely picked out the bread and cookies from the stand and carried them to the counter, but ordered their coffee to me. There were various names for foods, but there were also different types of coffee. From black to cappuccino, Vienna to mocha. Some friends just sipped the coffee I served them, while others insisted on cream or half-and-half.

I set out expired items (mostly bread) in front of the shop before 7 a.m. Back then (1989), they were very strict too. When I looked back after a bit, they were all gone. It was because they knew the bread wasn't very harmful. Through part-time jobs, I was able to validate Americans' practicality and diligence. Some say that America is a blessed country. It may mean that Americans don't work hard. They might think that Americans live comfortably for free. That is ridiculous. So I don't trust folks who have no experience on their own.

Thanks for reading.
