Cody liked the freedom that came withhis first summer job. He worked at Mitchell's Farm where people could come andpick the corn, berries and tomatoes out in the fields themselves. Then they'dbring their produce to checkout stand, where Cody would weigh it and charge (收费) the appropriateprice. Mr and Mrs. Mitchell were usually busy somewhere else, so Cody wastrusted to manage the stand by himself.
For the most part, Cody obeyed theMitchell's rules. When someone asked for a discount or a sample, Cody said no. Buthe did sometimes change the rules for friends, much to their delight.
"Go ahead, taste a few berriesbefore I weigh," he'd say when it was someone he knew. It was against therules to eat something before you bought it, but everyone wanted to.
One day, a man came to stand with abasket of corn he had picked. Cody weighed the ears of corn and told the manhow much it cost. The man looked confused.
"But I was here yesterday, and youtoldsomeonethat for every five ears you buy, you get onefree," he said.
Cody had it in his memory. He hadindeed offered that deal to the Thomases, who happened to be his neighbors. Nowhe felt sad about it. He saw Mrs Mitchell working close by. How was Cody goingto explain that he had given a deal to those he knew while he made everyoneelse pay full price?
The man saw that Cody was looking atMrs Mitchell," Is that the owner? May I speak to her?" he asked.
Cody thought about offering the man thesame discount, but there were people in line behind him, and they were carryingcorn, too. Cody hung his head and walked over to seen Mrs. Mitchel.
