Hi Yuki — I'm Lin Ran, and I work in a school cafeteria. Your line about recognizing who folded a sheet made me smile. What gives the person away?
One person makes a very sharp corner, one always leaves a little air inside, and one folds too quickly so the edges walk sideways. I do not use it to catch mistakes. I just notice after twelve years.
You said you started at the hottest machine. What do you remember about your first shift there?
I wore the wrong shoes. By lunch my socks were wet and I was too embarrassed to say anything. An older woman silently pushed a dry pair across the table. I kept spare socks in my locker from the next day on.
Do you still keep that notebook? I would like to hear what is in it now.
그 공책을 지금도 쓰고 있는지 궁금해요.
