My grandfather was a hard working man, he worked many jobs to keep food on the table for him and his family. One of those jobs was a factory worker at a fruit company. He worked there for 38 years in total. On his 30th year working there, the company gave him a set of pens with his name engraved on them. I got the pens on my 13th birthday after he had passed. I keep them in my room and whenever I am feeling lazy, I look at the pens and remember the hard work he put in.
