After a sufficient fund-raising event, we began to plan and register some of the basic food items we would bring for the flood victims, six student members were assigned to basic necessities, four students were assigned to seek donations of used clothing from residents or residents of Lhokseumawe and Lhoksukon two students are assigned to look for truck transfers that will carry goods as well as all students who have helped to raise funds and who get permission from their parents.

The first two months I worked as a retail salesman, I had to learn many new things, new vocabulary, a style of speech that was still very strange to me although some dialogue in Malay is not much different from the language dialogue in my country Indonesia, but the manners and the order the way of language and behavior must be to reflect the Malay people to please the customers who come to buy the necessities, there are some vocabularies that differ greatly from my language, as the expression "cloth" the word "cloth" in Malay has two meanings, first means a second "skirt" of women's clothing (cloth-is a fabric that is still a material not yet a ready-made item).

Being a salesman I'm used to, I've been a toy salesman on one of the five-legged markets or markets in the shop paraphernalia at several events when I fill the vacancy of school holidays, I've also been a salesman in one photo and photo shop studio in my town, and that's where I get my experience and knowledge about photography, although at that time still using manual photography.

After two months of being a salesman at the Quality Textile Store, I was entrusted with managing the warehouse, I began to be confused with the many things I had to learn and understand. My main task is to control the supply of goods, record the expenditure of goods, manage the necessary materials and then make a production permit to the manager after that submit the letter to the worker who served as a cloth cutter which will be forwarded by workers who served as tailors. Then after the goods are ready to be produced, then the goods should I quote and bring to the warehouse and then check the goods so that the amount of goods I received in accordance with the written letter of production request, before doing bookkeeping. This routine activity takes place every day.

Here I work 12 hours a day, go to work right at 09.00 am and end at 09.00 pm. At certain times we had to come home at 12:00 midnight, like the period of school leave in December, because the crowds of customers who seemed to be endless, as well as the holiday Eid al-Fitr.

In 2016 I was re-entrusted to manage some materials in the field of production, such as yarn, clothes, zip, labels, and some other stitching tools, my busyness began to increase, because the production place with the warehouse are two different and separate places. Entering the year 2017 I started to feel bored and tired of this condition, I finally asked permission to take a month off.

My request was fulfilled by my employer, before the holiday I was allowed to take leave and return to my country Indonesia, the fate of unlucky dating seemed to block the period of leave I should enjoy for a full month, but because the limit of my work permit will expire in the month finally I have to wait for the renewal period of one week. After getting new permit and flight tickets to Aceh Indonesia, I am happy and excited because tomorrow I will be in my homeland of my own pleasure I am accompanied with his old song God Bless titled "our home".

Arriving at the airport of Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA2) I immediately queued to do check in, the queue is quite long and long because of crowded and crowded people who want to go back to their respective kampong and tourist who want a vacation. After about an hour standing in queue line finally my turn to check in. when I arrived at the counter check in the clerk said that my ticket does not include luggage, so I have to bring my goods to be weighed and make payment at the counter service, after I weigh the goods I want to bring home it amounted to RM500.00 (Five Hundred Ringgit ).

I do not have that kind of money, because all my money has been transferred to my brother's account. Finally I called my employer and complained about it, he said that my flight ticket already included the cost of the baggage as much as 30Kg. but after being checked by the airport personnel there was no such fee. Finally I had to postpone my return on that day and return to Bandar tun Razak.
