    I was a previous typist in a post office because I couldn't tolerate typing any more postage bills or post codes on a typewriter every day, I resigned. With a greedy motivation of making big money, I took up working as a business representative for the GE Ecology Company, which produced goods by recycling useful materials from our dust bins.

    My new job left me good impressions in many aspects except that the working timetable was full of traveling by jets. Once when speeding up, our jet was swallowed by a thunderstorm which destroyed our GPS receiver and made us lose sight of the directions, a constantly flashing light showed that our jet was in danger.

    A steward instantly asked us to put on masks and fasten the safety belts and then pressed a button to switch on the escaping capsule. It slid sideways out of the opening at once and landed in a desert area safely. Lacking food and tablets, we were nervous and uncertain at first.

    But we all kept optimistic and made good adjustment to the situation. We swept up the surrounding mud to make our settlement and were back on our feet soon. Finally, guided by the smoke of our crashing jet, some local citizens came by carriages and saved us.
