rewarding.The alternative is a job that is a matter of chance,depending only on what can be found easily.Leaving the choice to chance generally proves unsatisfactory and leads to boredom with work and

school,I went straight out to work:I worked as a clerk in a small office.My father criticized me,I remember,for not going on studying while I had the chance,but I wanted to earn myself some money.Anyway,that job didnt last long because I had to go into the army when I was twenty.I stayed in for five years.I dont know what good my university course did because Im unemployed now.Oh,I know I got a job when I finished my university course I was twenty-nine then but it didnt last long.Well,I never really thought I would enjoy teaching very much.So,as I say,Im unemployed now and looking for something else.Audioscript31Interviewer:Sergio.Thank you for agreeing to this interview.How old areyou?Sergio:Um,Im fifty-one.Interviewer:And what is your profession?Sergio:Im an

America next summer.Interviewer:Lucky him!Audioscript35My Idea of Hell:1st speaker:I think my idea of hell would be,to be,to have a job where I had to do the same thing over and over again like somebody working in a factory just picking up one thing from one place and putting it into another and this just going on and on,day in and day out,if it was that kind of job I would just go mad 2nd speaker:Well,I think the thing I would least like to do given an option of anything in the world would be to be the guy who sits in a nuclear power station watching for it to start melting down,you know,the guy who sits there in front of those,thats just you know its a revolting thing anyway but can you imagine the boredom and the responsibility at the same time,it would just be completely terrible,Id hate that.3rd speaker:I think,I think the job I I dont actually think I would be capable of doing it is to be work as the killing person in an abattoir.I think that would be my,my,er,its self-explanatory why I couldnt do it.I th I cant imagine how people actually do it.I met somebody once who erm was one of the people that went into erm er a chicken battery and theyd spend all night they were only working night shift and just kill chickens and,and I just couldnt comprehend how they managed to do that and how they stayed sane.That would be the worst thing.I think itd be torture in more ways than one36My Idea of Heaven:1st speaker:On the other hand it would be wonderful to have a job where you are paid a lot of money and you could travel to different countries someone like a television reporter or an archaeologist or an anthropologist.I mean those are the exciting kinds of jobs Id like to have.I cant pinpoint one but it has to be a job where I can travel and see different countries and have time to actually stay in those countries and learn a little about those countries and visit exciting places.2nd speaker:What would I like to do?Well I guess probably the best job in the world would be to play for the New York Mets.You cant beat that you just cant beat that third baseman for the New York Mets.The Mets?Oh theyre a baseball team best baseball team in the world.3rd speaker:To choose another
