please myself how much I work. Anyway, to my surprise she found herself a job
in less than a week! So here I am – what they call a “house husband”, I suppose,
taking the kids to school and doing the shopping and what have you. The wife
didn’t think I’d be able to do it – but actually I’m really enjoying myself. I never
used to see that much of the kids, so it’s nice to really spend some time with
them, taking them to the park and all that. It’s harder work than you imagine,
mind you… I don’t think I’d want to do it for ever.”
a How did each person start doing his / her job?
b What are the advantages / disadvantages of each job?
c Do the speakers make any other interesting points about their jobs?
c) Discuss the following questions in groups.
●If you could choose any job in the world, what would you choose?
Why?
●Can you think of any jobs that you would particularly hate to do? Why?
●Which of the following statements do you agree with?
- Men and women are both equally capable of doing any job.
- There are a number of jobs that women are naturally better suited to than
men.
- There are a number of jobs that men are naturally better suited to than
women.
Reading I: 1. Discuss this question: Do people change during their
working lives? If so, how?
2. Now read the article. What does it say about the question above? Find
the answer as quickly as you can.
How to select the best candidates - and avoid the worst
Investing thousands of
pounds in the recruitment and
training of each new graduate
recruit may be just the beginning.
Choosing the wrong candidate
may be one the great mistakes for
an organization.
Few companies will avoid
all of the following failures:
people who panic at the first sign
of stress; who don’t have the ability of learning; hypochondriacs (persons who
worry about their health too much) who must be present but stay away; and the
unstable person later discovered to be a thief or worse.
Less dramatic, but just as much a problem is the person who simply does
not come up to expectations, who does not quite work; who never becomes a
high-flyer or even a steady employee.
