Life at the Ports (end)

I used to all the things at the ports gradually. Unfortunately, I got ill one day after I have been there for about 10 months. I ate some pork ribs stewed with radish, the radish was not washed well and with some pesticide in it. My boss sent me to the nearest hospital quickly. I had no medical insurance, so I paid the all medicine and treatment fees at the hospital by myself.

I felt terrible and disliked the hospital staff. They were afraid I was not able to pay the fees and forced me to leave after a week. Actually, it was not so hard for me to pay for it. I read out an order from a ship to my boss in a trembling voice, "cabbage 50 kilos, carrot 50 kilos, pork rib 300 kilos, apple 500 kilos..." The pesticide affected some nerves, I felt the sky and the ground revolve around me, and I even couldn't stand up alone. My boss said sorry to me and recruit another staff without paying me anything.

My girlfriend quickly took me back to her kindergarten. A month later, I insist left SZ and went back to my hometown though she didn't want me to go away from her. She saw me off at the airport full of tears, I owe her a lot.
I have met both unconcerned and loved in SZ, I will never forget this vibrant city.

あなたが私の記事をすべて訂正しました, 私を励ましありどうもありがとうございます! :-)

Unfortunately, I got ill one day after I haved been there for about 10 months.

My boss sent (took?) me to the nearest hospital quickly.

When you say that your boss “sent” you to the hospital, it explicitly means that he did not take you there himself. If he took you himself, use “took” instead of “sent.”

My boss said sorry to me and recruited another [staff member | interpreter | assistant] without paying me anything.

“Staff” is a collective noun meaning a group of people who work for someone. One person on the staff is called a “staff member.”

Yes, I should write the word "took" here.

Thank you! It's similar to "crew member" and "premium member", I have made the mistakes before.

I thought so. See also my comments on “sent” under entry #7 in this series.

And you’re very welcome. I admire you for sticking to the task of writing all of the entries in this series and seeing it through to the end. Very impressive.

I really appreciate quite a lot that you staying with it. I know how difficult it is to guess the meaning of some sentences. thank you!

I gradually got used to all the things at the ports gradually.

"To get use to" is the phrase
Your placement works too, but usually adverbs go before the verb

Unfortunately, I got ill one day after I have beenbeing there for about 10 months.

I think yours work to, just a stylistic change
You were in a state of "being" in SZ when this happened

I ate some pork ribs stewed with radish, but the radish was not washed well and withhad some pesticide in it.

"with" would go with "wash"
It was not washed with pesticide

My boss quickly sent me to the nearest hospital quickly.

I had no medical insurance, so I paid the allall the medicine and treatment fees at the hospital by myself.

I felt terrible and disliked the hospital staff.

They were afraid that I was not able to pay the fees and forced me to leave after a week.

Actually, paying for it was not so hard for me to pay for it.

Using an active voice instead of a passive voice is better because you are focusing on the action (paying)

I read out an order from a ship to my boss in a trembling voice, "cabbage 50 kilos, carrot 50 kilos, pork rib 300 kilos, apple 500 kilos..." The pesticide affected some nerves,. I felt the sky and the ground revolve around me, and I even couldn't even stand up alone.

That sucks :/

My girlfriend quickly took me back to her kindergarten.

A month later, I insist lefted on leaving SZ and went back to my hometown even though she didn't want me to go awayseparate from her.

"insisted on" is the saying, to be determined to do something
"separate from" would be a better way of saying it

She saw me off at the airport full of tears,. I owe her a lot.

I have met both unconcernedexperienced both indifference and loved in SZ,. I will never forget this vibrant city.

Unconcerned and loved are adjectives
To "meet" is to encounter objects, nouns

And to have other people not feel concern for you is called being met/ experiencing 'indifference'
