阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My husband’s company promoted him and relocated us to New York City. We found a safe, affordable place to live. Once we got settled in, I was determined to find employment. After a few days of searching and applying, I was fortunate to find a job as an administrative assistant with Young & Rubicam, a famous advertising agency. I wasn’t thrilled about the job because I had graduated with a degree to teach English, but the pay was good, and the extra money was a blessing.
The job was rather dull, though, mainly typing letters, answering phones, setting up for conferences, filing, scheduling meetings, arranging travel for the copywriters(撰稿人), etc. I felt that what I was doing was insignificant. As letters or travel brochures would come across my desk to be typed, I would read over them. Often, there were grammatical errors or the spelling was not always accurate, but since it wasn’t my job to correct them, I typed them as they were given to me.
One day, I was talking to my grandmother, Lou Olive Graham. Anyone not related to her called her Lou. Everybody else, including all twelve of her children and fifteen grandchildren, called her “Muh”. Muh was a wise woman. Her children adored and admired her. There was nothing better than to spend a day with Muh, which meant you were going to hear fascinating stories about her growing up, while savoring her tea and cakes.
Over tea, I said, “Muh, you should see the things that come across my desk—letters, memos, and brochures with crazy grammar, poor spelling, and awkward sentences. But I guess it's not my job to correct them.” Then, I added that I only did what they paid me to do.
Muh listened attentively, as she always did, and after I finished, she said very calmly, “Honey, don't just do enough to get by. Always do your best work. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might. You may find more enjoyment in the job if you do your best. Plus, it never hurts you to let people know that you can do more than what they hired you to do.”
