Hi, Tony. Haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been?
OK, I've been looking for a job for days, and I haven't found one yet. It's so hard finding work these days. Have you had any luck?
Yes, I've got a job, a waiter's job in a restaurant.
Are you well paid?
Well, $10 per hour, but I can keep the tips. That comes to roughly $80 every evening
Not bad.
Actually, there's still another opening. If you are interested, you'll surely get it.
That's great! I'll go there right now and speak with the boss.
There's no rush. You can see him tomorrow. I've told him about you. He promised to give you the job.
That was nice of you, Susan. Thanks a lot.
Think nothing of it, Tony. I'm sure you'd do the same for me.
Could you tell me a bit more about the work there? I mean, those dos and don'ts. I am a green hand, you know.
First of all, you must be punctual. You should be there before 6 p. m. so that you will have half an hour for preparation changing clothes and things like that. Then,remember you should smile. Smile to your customers all the time. Never pull a long face even If you feel awful that day. Anything else? Oh, yes. Never argue with your boss. Learn to say 'Yes, sir. '
Be a yes-man, you mean?
You may put it that way if you like. Don't worry. You'll have no problem.
I hope not.
