I had just found a better job and I knew that the manager would be disappointed when I was leaving. I recently became friends with a young man who had just migrated (移民) to Australia to escape war in his homeland. He was unskilled and was finding life difficult as he was unemployed. The manager asked me to introduce someone who I thought could do the job just as well as me, so I took this opportunity to arrange (安排) an interview for my new friend. However, in the end, he was not offered the job after the interview. Later, I asked the manager why my friend was turned down. The manager thought that his English was not good enough for the position, but I suggested that my friend will be a good choice for the company since I could train him.

I knew how the terrible war had forced him to leave his homeland and what price he had paid for doing so.
