which 41 sweeping outside the shop. every single day from 5 a.m, the homeless man was there doing the very 42 he could for the owner, making it the communitys favourite, even though it did 43 him pennies. 44 , the owner saw how good a job the man was doing and gave him a job working 45 a cashier. he was watched closely to make sure that he didnt 46 any of the money received from the sales. he was still homeless after all. the homeless man did a/an 47 job as a cashier for over 2 years, and did such a good job that he was promoted to 48 the finances for the whole shop. to my 49 , this was
