The good news was that I finally got a job. For one day. It was a few weeks after Kamil took me to a Thai restaurant for lunch but also to ask the manager if he had any jobs available. I learned not to expect much so I was a bit surprised when on a Saturday morning the manager called me. One of the kitchen employees got sick and he asked me if I could come for the evening shift. I agreed with no hesitation. "You do know how to use dishwasher, right?" Of course I could - aunt Grazyna had one at her house. It was only when I was led into the kitchen when I realised the difference between industrial and home use equipment. There was a lot of steam, everyone in the kitchen spoke Thai, rice kept sticking to the plates. I was desperately trying to keep up with the piling plates. At some point one of the waiters step in to help me out so he could serve his customers. Finally the shift ended. The manager handed me some cash. He smiled and thanked me but I knew he would never call me back.
