Chapter 237
Big Roof Shashaato .
That is where I’m working at .
It is larger than a noble’s mansion .
There are more than 400 employees employed here .
First, there were only then, then it became 200 . After that, it became what it is now .
They are the first batch .
As for me, I’m part of the 2nd batch .
Both the 1st and 2nd batch are composed of homeless orphans but that doesn’t mean that everyone’s close .
There are conflicts and competition especially when it comes to bed and when one is not good at something .
Though I’m glad when I heard that I can work at Big Roof Shashaato when I heard it the first time, I became uneasy because of someone from the first batch .
Those from the first batch, all of them are children indebted to Goldie .
Us 2nd batch belongs to the manpower handler that was called by Goldie .
We are of different faction .
In addition to that, the first batch is already working for more than two months before we were hired .
I thought back then that we will get bullied for not being able to properly do our job .
But such a thing did not happen .
The 1st batch is surprisingly kind .
Of course, if you fail to do something or do something stupid, you’ll be scolded .
However, there’s no bullying .
I wondered why at first but upon continuing doing my job, I finally understood .
No one would dare do such a thing . No one would dare cause trouble .
Yes, there’s that feeling of not wanting to lose your job but what matters most is to not trouble the acting managers who employed us, Marcos-sama and Paulsama .
We are indebted to the two of them so we would rather use our time improving ourselves rather than making fun of others .
This is something everyone can’t help but do .
Because they gave us decent lives… . no, they gave us the best lives .
The house we are living in is specially made to accommodate employees .
It is called dormitory .
Only employees working in Big Roof Shashaato can enter this dormitory .
The dormitory is composed of three houses .
Boy’s dormitory, girl’s dormitory, and children’s dormitory .
TN: Yes, boys and girls here refer to teenagers so it is different from children .
Boy’s dormitory and girl’s dormitory, as their names suggest, only males or females can enter them .
The children’s dormitory is for those who find it difficult to live in dormitories alone .
They are those who are still slightly dependent on their older brother or sister .
In all dormitories, one room is shared by four people .
It seems like it feels more crowded before but was able to achieve the current situation after adding additional buildings .
In those rooms, it is possible to sleep in a bed with a clean sheet every day .
At first, I was scared to make the sheet dirty so I slept on the floor but it is all something good to remember now .
The dormitory has a bath .
A big bath .
It is being heated up to make the bathwater warm and using it is free too .
Bathing is by group so we have to spend our time properly when taking a bath .
It is also been decided that we must take a bath every day .
Skipping is not allowed .
With the exception of you being sick .
Meal is served three times a day .
I was surprised because before coming to this dormitory, it is already luxurious is I can eat a whole loaf bread in a day .
Moreover, it is properly cooked .
Let’s say, for instance, breakfast .
The tan bread here is baked on that day unlike what I previously eat, burnt bread that is as hard as a rock and I don’t even know how many days have passed since it was baked .
The soup is a real vegetable soup and not some boiled weeds .
There’s also another dish but it changes every day .
Sometimes there’s boiled egg or grilled fish .
On top of that, the second serving of soup is free .
During my first breakfast, I was scared to eat anything because they might charge me .
Another good thing to remember .
Looking at the situation now, no one’s holding back for another serving anymore .
Lunch and supper are more luxurious than breakfast .
Though strange dishes appear from time to time in the name of research but they are delicious enough .
At least the taste is not enough for us employees to complain .

When we were hired by Big Roof Shashaato, we were provided with something .
Clothes .
Three clothes that should be worn when working, two everyday clothes, and two sleepwear .
There are undergarments too .
Honestly speaking, I never had so many clothes so I’m troubled with what I should do .
When we were given with pieces of furniture in our room, I’m slightly elated .
We were also taught on how to properly wash them .
It is a rule to wash your own clothes .
You must not let other people to do it for you .
And it’s not like we’re scared that they will be stolen if we let someone else touch them .
It is a voluntary rule that us employees made .
It is also embarrassing to let someone wash your dirty clothes when you yourself have time to spare .
All of us wants to work neatly too .
By the way, we are provided with shoes too .
It is only a pair but if it doesn’t match the size of your feet, you can ask for a replacement . You can ask for a replacement too if it breaks .
We won’t be allowed to work if we’re barefooted .
By the way, let’s get back to the main subject .
That is work .
I can only live as much as I can work .
First of all, there are employees who are doing specialized jobs .
Specialized jobs like cooking and drawing signboards which I’m particularly not good at .
It was rotational before but taking orders from the counter has become a specialized job too .
A person doing a specialized job is highly respected by other employees .
Me too… . I want to be in a specialized job too but to my regret, I am not one of them .
However, my time will come .
If you can do a specialized job, you’ll have to do it .
If you don’t, you’ll work like everyone else .
Serving food, arranging the queue, cleaning tables, and distributing water .
Oh, you can also help in the gaming area like in bowling, quoits, shooting, or if something needs to be done on the stage .
Though any work there is popular today, it’s my turn to help with bowling .

Though the work there is easy to do, it is heavy labor .
The bowling lane should be manned by three to four people .
First of all, the lanes are cleaned by all of us .
Afterward, one of us will greet and arrange the queue of the customers .
We must do it with a smile .
There must be one person at the end of the lane and that person will be responsible for arranging the pins .
The last one will be coordinating and monitoring the throwing and will also be responsible for cleaning the ball .
There are customers who just throw the ball as they want .
Given that, they should be reminded to not throw the ball violently .
The one at the end of the lane will collect the pins that fell down and will throw back the ball that the customers threw .
This job needs focus since if the person in charge will not do her job properly, it will consume a lot of time .
That person also should take care to not touch the ball the customers throw until it hits the end .
When the pins fell, that person should collect them carefully and not carelessly .
Who knows if she’ll accidentally knock down a pin if she’s careless .
Ah, that person also needs to return the ball by letting it slide at the gap at the side of the lane . She should also ring the bell to let everyone know how many pins have been knocked down .
If there’s a performance being done on the stage, the signal won’t be from a bell but from a flag .
Some customers prefer using flags too so that everyone can see their “greatness” .
Ah, but if there’s another customer in line, we have no choice but to take it down immediately .
If you’re in contact with customers, you’ll get a chance of receiving tips .
A generous person will give as much as a large copper coin .
There’s a rule that the tip will belong to the employee who receives it .
In the beginning, this has been an issue .
If you receive a tip, the employees are expected to give it to the store .
The reverse of the present condition .
Everyone here already heard that it is a normal practice for stores to take tips given to the employees .
However, acting managers Marcos-sama and Paulsama did not take anything from the employees .
They said that it has nothing to do with them so they should save it instead .
Therefore, from that time, tips received by the employees belong to them .
Well, that’s great and because of that, I managed to save some .
By the way, the employees are planning to present gifts to acting managers Marcos-sama and Paulsama .

Fufu .
Though I’m doing my best in various ways, there are three people who I aim to be or treat as a rival .
The first one is the 1st batch’s Potte .
She’s doing a specialized job which is receiving orders at the counter .
Potte is like the representative of that job .
She wears an exclusive waitress uniform which I really envy .
As for me, I’m only wearing the common employee apron .
Another one is the signboard painter Razek .
She’s famous even when she’s still a child because she likes to draw on the ground .
TN: The past, the present, and even in the future chapters, I still don’t know what this person’s gender . Being female is just an assumption .
At that time, she has a not so good reputation but who would have thought that she’ll make a killing by drawing signboards now .
Moreover, she was directly ordered by the manager to do it .
How envy-inducing .
Though we all admit that no one can compare to Razek in terms of drawing .
The picture that I drew… . I tried drawing Goldie’s dog but no one guessed it right .
At least they said that it is some sort of living thing .
Is my drawing really that bad?
The last one is Shsan .
Though he’s just a customer with ardent love in cooking, he started working here before anyone noticed it .
He is now like an aide to Marcos-sama in cooking .
His weakness is talking in high tension when it comes to food but he teaches us in reading, writing, and arithmetic .
He is also very polite and approachable .
However, he’s treating me like a child .
Though he might be right because of my age, I want to get rid of that image of me by learning how to read, write, and calculate earlier than most .
But arithmetic is hard .
Ehto, what I really want to say is that I want to learn from the three of them .
I’m currently explaining that in front of the 200 members of the 3rd batch .
Ah, why am I explaining?
It’s because Big Roof Shashaato’s employees have increased again .
