# Living in a small Himalayan village, my mother, who never went to school, made sure I got an education. She despised what she saw in local offices: men sitting in chairs barking at women to make them tea. She said without an education, I could end up serving tea for “lazy men like these.” I finished high school, learned six languages, graduated from Berkeley and have worked at Google for a decade now. My mother doesn’t know exactly what I do at work, but she is glad to know that I don’t make tea for anyone (except, occasionally, for her). — Sonam Thunden

 

* despise 마음에 안 들다

* what she saw in local offices : 그녀가 봤던 것 => 거기서 보여졌던 것들

* end up serving = in the end I could serve 결국에는 나도 ~ 이럴 수 있다

* have worked at Google 현재완료는 현재 그렇다는 의미
