He was the CEO of a listed company, extremely wealthy. One day, he had a sudden whim to experience the life of ordinary people. He boarded a public bus, dropped in a coin, and found a window seat. Curiously, he observed the people around him: a pregnant woman in front, an elderly man behind. These ordinary folks, squeezed onto the bus every day, lived simple lives but were still happy. Opposite him sat a beautiful woman, whom he could admire up close. At the next stop, more people boarded, gradually blocking his view of her. Unable to see her, he closed his eyes, savoring her graceful charm. Suddenly, a sharp voice lashed at him: "Can't you give up your seat? A grown man with no manners!" He opened his eyes to see a woman holding a baby standing before him. The ugly woman who had shouted continued berating him: "What are you looking at? I'm talking to you!" All eyes in the bus turned to him, and his face flushed crimson. He quickly stood up and offered his seat to the woman with the child. At the next stop, he fled the bus in embarrassment, never expecting such humiliation. Before getting off, he shot a venomous glare at the sharp-tongued ugly girl, grinding his teeth in anger. Later, the girl came to his company to apply for a job, and he decided to give her a taste of humiliation. His company was hiring, and he personally oversaw the interviews. He saw a familiar face—it was her, the girl who had embarrassed him. What a small world, he thought, secretly gloating at the chance for revenge. The girl recognized him too, her expression tensing, sweat beading on her forehead. "Polish each of our shoes, and you'll be hired," he told her. She stood there, hesitating for a long time. Her family's finances were in dire straits; she desperately needed this job. Despite her education and abilities, her looks had led many companies to reject her. Now, the opportunity was before her—just swallow her pride and polish their shoes. But how could she trade her dignity for it? He was certain this stubborn girl wouldn't stoop, and he taunted her further, but to his surprise, she agreed. She fetched a shoe brush, knelt down, and began polishing the examiners' shoes. He gloated, "Aren't you tough? Where's your fire now?" When it was his turn, he deliberately crossed his legs. Unexpectedly, the girl... Suddenly, he felt he had gone too far. Though she had hurt him on the bus, she had been doing a good deed. He asked his subordinates for her file. Her written test score was the highest, far ahead of the rest. In every aspect, she was outstanding. Besides, he couldn't go back on his word in front of everyone. So, after she finished polishing the examiners' shoes, he announced publicly that she was hired. She didn't seem overly excited, just thanked the examiners softly. Then, word by word, she said to him: "Including you, I polished 5 pairs of shoes at 2 yuan each. Please pay me 10 yuan. Only then will I come to work." He never expected her to say that, but he couldn't change his decision. Reluctantly, he gave her 10 yuan. What surprised him even more was that she took the money to an old man picking through trash at the company gate and gave it to him. Some souls are destined to be noble, no matter how humbly fate treats them. Like this girl, though her dignity was wounded, she found a noble outlet for it. From then on, he regarded this ugly girl with newfound respect. Indeed, she performed exceptionally well in her work, achieving outstanding results and completing many seemingly impossible tasks for him. One day, he couldn't help asking, "When I made things hard for you, did you harbor resentment?" The girl replied enigmatically: "I bend down, only to exchange for a chance to hold my head high." A temporary bow does not mean losing dignity forever; the lower you bend, the higher you can raise your head. Salespeople, when you pitch products to strangers and face coldness or even ridicule, don't look down on yourselves. Your profession is noble; you strive on your own!
