I earn some extra money on the weekend by cleaning cars at the local garage. The garage owner is the friend of my dad. I clean the cars which he has for sale on the forecourt. He wants them to look as smart as possible so he can get the best price. The work isn’t very interesting, but it’s quite well-paid.

 Tom Robinson’s parents were poor, so Tom had to go to work when he was still a boy. It wasn’t easy to find work that he could do: Tom was small and thin. At last he got a place in an office where the work wasn’t too hard, though there was much of it. Tom was paid only six shillings a week for his work. He wasn’t satisfied with the low pay. But for a long time he was afraid to ask for a rise. At last he decided to go to Mr. Marton’s office and ask for a rise. He decided that he would not leave the room until Mr. Marton had promised to give him four shillings more a week.
He slowly opened the door and asked: “May I speak to you, sir?” Tom’s voice sounded much smaller and thinner, as he told him that he wanted a rise of four shillings.
“You are an honest boy and not afraid of work,” Mr. Marton said. “But don’t you think that ten shillings is too much for such a small boy?”
“No, I don’t,” Tom answered. “I am older than I look. To tell you the truth, since I have worked here, I have been so busy that I haven’t had time to grow.”
