[00:07.91] A: So how do you like your job, Chris?
[00:10.16] B: Well, it was okay at first, but now, after two years, I don't like it.
[00:16.06] A: Oh, why is that?
[00:17.66] B: I boring. I do the same thing every day. I'm really sick of it.
[00:22.67] A: So why don't you change jobs?
[00:24.91] B: I'm well - paid. I like the money!
[00:27.91] A: Oh, I see. But you should leave If you're not happy.
[00:31.40] B: Yeah, maybe I should.
[00:34.56] 2.
[00:36.46] A: Do you like teaching children, Alexa?
[00:39.35] B: Oh yes! I love working with kids. They're so much fun.
[00:44.74] A: Well, I guess you have the perfect job!
[00:47.41] B: Yeah. I like it a lot. There’s just one thing I don't like.
[00:53.16] A: What's that?
[00:54.56] B: The distance to school. It's too far away. It takes me an hour to drive there every day.
[01:03.32] A: Wow. That must be awful!
[01:05.57] B: It is, but the schools that are near me aren't as good.

[01:12.57] A: How's your new job going, Anna?
[01:15.07] B: Good, thanks. I really like it.
[01:18.07] A: What do you like best about it?
[01:20.21] B: I think it's the people I work with. They are so nice.
[01:24.60] A: People make all the difference in the job, don't they?
[01:27.74] B: They sure do. The only trouble is, I have to travel a lot. I'm away from home about two weeks every month.
[01:36.32] A: Yeah, that can be difficult.
[01:38.97] B: It is. I hope won't have to travel so much next year.

[01:46.07] A: Do you enjoy being a salesperson, Rachel?
[01:49.32] B: Yes, I do like it. I get to meet so many people.
[01:53.57] A: Is it hard work?
[01:55.07] B: Yes, it can be. I don't like the long hours. I'm always really tired when I get home at night.
[02:02.32] A: That's too bad. Why don't you quit?
[02:04.72] B: Because I think my boss is great to work for.
[02:08.63] 5.
[02:10.53] A: How long have you been working in a restaurant, Martin?
[02:13.92] B: For more than five years.
[02:16.33] A: Wow. You must really enjoy it.
[02:19.57] B: Oh no, I don't enjoy it at all. It's hard work and pretty tiring, too. I'm on my feet all night.
[02:27.07] A: Oh, I see.
[02:29.07] B: But the tips are great. I really should find a better job soon, though.
