Lesson Learned:

        I learn in this movie that if you want to be worthy for the position you have to show your 100% best in everything you do. If you want something, do all the possible things to have it. Also you have to draw a line between your life and your work because the people outside your work will never understand so you have to make a time for both of them. Also in life, Complaining will never go you somewhere so if your boss asks you something do it now and don’t complain. The most important lesson is Do what makes you happy so if your job doesn’t make you happy and contented just quit because your passion for your job is very important.
