These days I'm doubtful.
I'm working at a local charity organization with no pay.
The local charity organization helps the poor and is dedicated to improving the environment by the sale of used articles.
I'm proud of my work.
But these days I'm doubtful.
Some volunteers work only for finding a job.(some companies require that.) ( Some volunteers work here only to get a job. )
They have no passions, therefore they quit immediately. ( They have no passion for this work, so they end up quiting early on. )
Everyday I have to face new coworkers. There is no chance to close. It makes me sad.
Some patrons treat us lightly. ( instead of "lightly" you might want to use "kindly" )
Today, a patron asked for a refund on swimsuits after 14days of purchasing.
Legally, purchased items can be exchanged or refunded within a week and underwears or swimsuits can never be exchanged or refunded.
We explained about that before she purchased the items, so she knew about that our policy.
But she said she didn't want to lose 3,000 won. (3000 won is a very cheap price, we give all that to the poor. If someone were to be refunded, the poor couldn't get help.)
She argued that her overseas trip made late refund asking. ( She argued that her overseas trip made refunds past the exchange date. )
ha...overseas trip... I could aware knew that she must be rich and irrational.
Of course, there are many good patrons and they make us happy.
But some bad patrons make us disappointed. ( But some bad patrons are dissapointing. )

The local charity organization I work for helps the poor and is dedicated to improving the environment by selling used articles. I'm working at local charity organization with no pay, and I'm proud of my work.
But these days I'm not so sure. Some volunteers only work here to find a job. This is because some companies require you to be a volunteer first. In most cases, volunteers have no passion, and they tend to quit soon after. Which means everyday I have to face new coworkers, and there is no chance to say goodbye. It makes me sad.
Some clients and customers treat us poorly. Today, a patron asked refund for swimsuits 14 days after purchasing them. Legally, purchased items can only be exchanged or refunded within a week; underwear or swimsuits never be exchanged or refunded. We explained about the terms and conditions of sale before she purchased the items, so she knew about it. However, she said she didn't want to lose 3,000 won. (3000 won is not that much money. We give this amount to the poor.
Refunding items means we can't give money to the poor).
She argued that her overseas trip was delayed because she had to come back for a refund. Ha!... overseas trip... I could swear that she was rich and being unreasonable.
Of course, there are many good customers - they make us happy. But there will always be the small percentage of customers that will tarnish the purpose of volunteer work and helping the needy.
