I'm a rather smart person who has spent nearly 10 years learning mechanics (机械学), but I have no formal education. I have always struggled to make people trust me.
This year, I started another factory job, which provided a bit higher pay than my last one. I was making 13.50 an hour at my last job and hardly made a living. I felt I would probably live a better life! My neighbour bought a used motorcycle that everyone thought it had some serious damage. After taking a look at it, I said that I would be able to repair it. As a result, I saved them 2,000 that they expected to pay to rebuild it. They were impressed with my work and told many of their friends about me. I got a lot of new business just through word of mouth.
In about two months I had over a dozen people coming to me for work and I was making great money. I was making thousands a month from part-time jobs on a good month. But because of the instability of the work, it was not certain for me to get enough money every month. I still couldn't leave my day job at that point.
Then I got a job through one of my customers working on heavy equipment and diesel trucks (柴油汽车). I was able to impress them by solving difficult problems quickly. They offered me another job that started even higher—17 an hour. I finally made some progress.
In one year's time, I went from being the lowest level worker to having bosses ask me to work for them. Now I can honestly say I feel truly proud of myself and my skills.

我是一个相当聪明的人,花了近10年时间学习机械学,但我没有接受过正规教育。我一直努力让人们信任我。
今年,我开始了另一份工厂工作,这份工作的薪水比我上一份工作略高。我上一份工作每小时挣13.50美元,几乎难以维持生计。我觉得我可能会过上更好的生活!我的邻居买了一辆二手摩托车,每个人都认为它有一些严重的损坏。看了一下之后,我说我能修好它。结果,我为他们节省了他们原本预计要花2000美元来修理它的费用。他们对我的工作印象深刻,并把我介绍给了他们的很多朋友。仅仅通过口碑,我就接到了很多新业务。
大约两个月后,就有十几个人来找我干活,我赚了很多钱。在行情好的月份,我做兼职一个月能赚几千美元。但由于工作不稳定,我每个月不一定能赚到足够的钱。那时我还不能辞去我的日常工作。
然后,通过我的一个客户,我得到了一份修理重型设备和柴油卡车的工作。我能通过快速解决难题给他们留下深刻印象。他们给了我另一份薪水更高的工作——每小时17美元。我终于取得了一些进步。
在一年的时间里,我从一名最低级别的工人变成了有老板请我为他们工作的人。现在我可以诚实地说,我为自己和我的技能感到真正的自豪。
