Personal Narrative: A New Team Member In My Team

When I had worked about 12 months, I heard that there would be a new team member in our team. It was the first experience to meet a junior co-worker, so I really expected to it. At that time, because of the team leader, it was so tough time for me, thus I needed something to refresh the bad environment and atmosphere.
