Jim’s Two Jobs.

Jim’s father was the only butcher in the little town of Whiterock. His mother used to help his father in the butcher’s shop to serve the customers and cut up the meat. Then one day just before Christmas she dropped dead on the floor of the shop. Jim and his father had a terrible Christmas that year, and it was very difficult for the butcher to look after his shop by himself in the new year.

Luckily, Jim finished school the next summer and had to get a job. He wanted to buy a motorcycle, so he started helping his father at the butcher’s shop. After a while, he was very good at cutting up the meat, so his father sometimes left him alone in the shop when there weren’t many customers. Jim always liked to have his long, while coat nice and clean. It was a sort of uniform.

Winter came and went, and then it was spring, but Jim still did not have enough money to buy his motorcycle. So he took a second job, working in a hospital during the evenings. This job was hard work, helping to lift people out of beds and take them from one part of the hospital to another, but Jim liked it because he could wear a long, white coat in the hospital, too. He still thought it was a sort of uniform and felt very important when he was wearing it.

One evening when Jim was working at the hospital, he had to take a woman from her bed to the operating room. This was the woman’s first operation, and she was very scared. She thought of how the doctor would cut her up. It was terrible! Then she saw Jim in his long, white coat and remembered seeing him at the butcher’s shop.

“Oh, no!” she screamed. “Not the butcher! Don’t let the butcher do the operation!”.
