"I was not born in this place. But this place is all i have with me. I have been here for like 5 years.
Don't ask me about my Age.Yes, I am just considered a child worker but i feel like a young guy denied of freedom and money. To be honest, there is no use of being a young guy without money and freedom hahaha.
My day starts with serving foods to countless people, people who are young, energetic and upcoming Engineers. Sometimes i just sit in a corner and observe how busy they are doing different stuffs. Some of them are the nicest people I've come to know. some of them would ask me if i've had my breakfast, some of them would just give me a tip of 5 taka or some of them would just say: "Shamim, don't you go to home?" during the vacations.
these people are so kind that I've never felt alone in this huge place.sometimes i do miss my family though. i have got some friends who work with me. they make me laugh all day.
That's why, with all these sadness and struggles in my life, i manage to put a glittering smile on my face. i think its important to accept what we have and be happy with it. i just wish everyone who work from such early ages are treated with a bit more love and affection in their workplaces. Because not every child worker is as lucky as me..
