Manager Beck

BECK is the group manager of Pets and Aquatics¹（水上运动） , in charge of both departments of aquatics and pets of Evergreen² garden centre. Everyday he works together with his staffs, he is a manager but did all the jobs what should to do by the other staff. What he saw? What he found? What he thought out? Especially some staff’s left half job. His short legs are moving so fast it looked seemingly³ just liked he was trotting⁴（小跑） on tip toes.

His hard work and good control, with good team cooperation made the fish house and pets zone kept in a very good order, every shelves looked like an military review formation "eyes right", everything looked so tidy. Some customers have said the fish house of Evergreen garden centre is the best one in England and like come to buy fish from us.

I have learnt so much from BECK, especially about management. He not only encourages the team members but also encourages the customers.

"For business we should find out customer’s merits⁵ and learn from them. As a Chinese byword （谚语） : customers are 'hidden dragon and crouched⁶ tiger.'" One time he told me like that.

BECK has an open mind, which easily to receive the new knowledge, he stood out as an international model manager too. Under modern condition, "the human is a big family and the globe is a small village", everybody should be like that he said once.

With BECK everything were excellent, including his head which is like an egg, thoroughly⁷ bare with no hair growing. As a Chinese saying: "A clever head without hair." I knew he is a wise-man and good manager that first from his egg head（书呆子，知识分子） .

After Evergreen took over the garden centre from Well, they made so many changes, such as the painting, ceiling, carpets, lights and so on, it really looked very more nice, made the garden centre much better than before, when BECK is working under the lights, his bare head is more bright than before too, when his head stoops（弯腰） and rises during his working, it is like an electric torch even a searchlight（探照灯） .

"The Garden Centre has changed, BECK’s head changed too. Looking the Garden centre is more bright than before just as BECK’s head does." Somebody said jokingly.
