Status defines a social value and prestige for a certain group of people. In my community, the highest value and prestige are an education and a good job. I grew up in a small city where there aren’t too many job opportunities. Therefore, it is very important to get a high education for young people because it is easier to compete in getting a good job. In fact, there people believe that if you have a good education, you can get a good job; if you have a good job, you can afford many material goods. In my neighborhood, those people are much esteemed, and they are imitated by others. I believe that a good education determines a high value of human as well.

Currently, I don’t work, but I would like to share my experience working in the bank in the loan department. I worked there for over 6 years, and during that time, every day looked the same. At first, I prepared computer and paper works to work with. Then I waited for first client to arrive. Routine, 5 days a week, 8 hours a day, I sat by the desk with hands on computer and talked to the clients about the same products. Even I knew that when my boss had a bad mood, he would come to yell at us. Only a few new clients and some new regulations made the change for that period of time. In my opinion, banking is a routine job, and there is nothing what I would change, you can like it or not. However, the atmosphere where I worked was great. Me and my coworkers always supported and helped each other. When we had a little free time, we joked and laughed. We often hung out together after work. Even sometimes, we organized trips to go out of the town. Even though my job was routine, overall I have a great memory and maybe I will back there.
