There is no definite motivation that causes Inges to aspire to become a cashier. It's just, when he was a child, he was happy to see his father writing with a typewriter, at that time the computer was not as famous now, his father was very proficient in using the typewriter. Inges was always a spectator when his father worked with typewriters at home.


In the past, when he was a child, Inges was also often invited by his mother to shop. There he saw the counsellors who counted items with a manual cash register. Perhaps this was Inges' strongest reason and made him aspire to become a cashier. He was happy to see the cashier at the store read the price code listed on the wrong part of the package while pressing the button on the cash register. Inges was also happy to hear the rhythm that was caused by the touch of the cashier's finger with the cashier's button.


"Mba Inges, this will count."


"Yes, here ma'am, I'm sorry my mama's a little bit better." Inges' hand received a note from a buyer and started counting groceries.


"Udah mba Inges," the buyer laughed, "But mba Inges really want to be a cashier, don't want to be another?" ask the buyer.


"True ma'am, I want to be a small cashier."


"Why can it be so mba? What a good thing to be a cashier."


"The total cost is 576 thousand, I like to see my fingers dancing on the calculator." replied Inges as he raised his hand and moved his fingers in front of the buyer's face.


"That's mba."


"Yes." Yeah." Inges laughed grimly and took the money he had been given.

"I'm a teacher, I'm a teacher, I'm a teacher." Some kids raised their hands, including little Inges.


"Yes, let's go, here!"


Inges came out of the table and stepped forward of the class.


"Let's tell your friends tomorrow when you're older what Inges wants to be."


"Friends, Inges's ideals if you grow up later want to be a cashier."


All of his friends, including the teacher.


"Guru, what's the cashier?" a male student asked, the teacher gasped, as if he were not ready to hear what Inges was saying and the question he was asking.


"Dear tips, the ideals can be replaced by another? So either a doctor, or a lawyer like your dad, or a policewoman, a teacher, a nurse, yeah!"


"Ga will," answered Inges innocently, "Inges wants to be a cashier, the cashier's friends who are in the shops you know where we pay for groceries." explained Inges spirit and confident.


Hearing Inges explanation his friend was silent for a moment, before long the fanfare occurred because of their laughter. Inges turned his cherry face flat instantly.

"Inches the handyman we pay for going to the supermarket."


"Stop, setop, setop, calm everything, clap your hands for Inges." Some students gave claps but more of them just kept quiet.
