Upside Down
Who’s to say
What’s impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There’s no stopping curiosity
(Jack Johnson)

The Car Washer Who Became An Executive
Robert L. Johnson is the CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of
BET. Black Entertainment Television, a cable TV channel in
the United States, BET specializes in producing programs for
the African-American community.
[5] Read what this successful executive says about his first
job.
“I ________ in Freeport, Illinois. My first job was at the
local carwash. I ________ sixteen years old. I ________ every
day, all summer, for a dollar an hour. I worked with ten other
[10] guys. All of us ________from different racial, religious and
economic backgrounds. We had to clean cars in teams, and
we quickly learned to work together.
I learned the better way to become indispensable: you
know how to do all aspects of your job. At the carwash, ‘all
[15] aspects’ included vacuuming the interior, scrubbing whitewalls
and polishing chrome until it shined. Sixteen years later, when
I started my own business, I again had to know how to do
every job in the company – advertising, marketing, producing
and negotiation contracts.
[20] Working at the carwash taught me that there is a direct
connection between work and a feeling of self-esteem. Young
people who refuse jobs that they consider inferior or low-paying
are only hurting themselves. As long as you do your best, every
job is a learning experience and a step to a better job.”
