Although I left university with a good degree, I suddenly found that it was actually quite hard to lớn find a job. After being unemployed for a few months, I realized I had to take the first thing that came along or I"d be in serious financial difficulties. Và so, for six very long months, I became a market research telephone interviewer. I knew it wasn"t the best company in the world when they told me that I"d have to undergo three days of training before starting work, và that I wouldn"t get paid for any of it. Still, I knew that the hourly rate when I actually did start full time would be a lot better than unemployment benefit, và I could work up to lớn twelve hours a day, seven days a week if I wanted. So, I thought of the money I"d earn và put up with three days of unpaid training. Whatever those three days taught me - & I can"t really remember anything about them today - I wasn"t prepared for the way I would be treated by the supervisors. Đỗ Bình – thpt Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 5NEW CURRICULUM TEXTBOOK-BASED PRACTICE thử nghiệm UNIT 9: CHOOSING A CAREER It was worse than being at school. There were about twenty interviewers like myself, each sitting in a small, dark booth with an ancient computer và a dirty telephone. The booths were around the walls of the fifth floor of a concrete office block, and the supervisors sat in the middle of the room, listening in khổng lồ all of our telephone interviews. We weren"t allowed lớn talk lớn each other, và if we took more than about two seconds from ending one phone call và starting another, they would shout at us lớn hurry up và get on with our jobs. We even had khổng lồ ask for permission khổng lồ go to the toilet. I was amazed how slowly the day went. Our first break of the day came at eleven o"clock, two hours after we started. I"ll always remember that feeling of despair when I would look at my watch thinking, "It"s must be nearly time for the break", only to find that it was quarter khổng lồ ten và that there was another hour và a quarter to lớn go. My next thought was always, "I can"t believe I"m going to lớn be here until nine o"clock tonight." The most frightening aspect of the job was that I was actually quite good at it. "Oh, no!" I thought. ‘Maybe I"m destined lớn be a market researcher for the rest of my life." My monster certainly seemed lớn think so. One day - during a break, of course - she ordered me into her office. "Simon," she said, "I"m promoting you. From tomorrow, you"re off telecoms và onto credit card complaints. I"m sure you can handle it. There"s no extra pay, but it is a very responsible position." Three weeks later, I quit. It was one of the best decisions I"ve ever made. 118. Why did the writer become a market research telephone interviewer? A. He had completely run out of money. B.

It meant he would be phoning different people. C. It involved greater responsibility. D. There was no increase in salary. Exercise 12. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D lớn indicate the correct answer khổng lồ each of the questions. THE SECRETARY In olden days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something far too shocking khổng lồ distract the serious work of an office, secretaries were men. Then came the First World War and the male secretaries were replaced by women. A man"s secretary became his personal servant, charged with remembering his wife"s birthday & buying her presents; taking his suits lớn the dry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone lớn keep people he did not wish to lớn speak to at bay; and, of course, typing, filing and taking shorthand. Now all this may be changing again. The microchip & high giải pháp công nghệ is sweeping the British office, taking with it much of the routine clerical work that secretaries did. "Once office giải pháp công nghệ takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve only the high-powered work - and then men will want to bởi it again." That was said by one of the executives (male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under way in the US. One girl described to me a recent temporary job placing men in secretarial jobs in San Francisco, she noted that all the men she dealt with appeared lớn be gay so possibly that is just a new twist to lớn the old story. Over here, though, there are men coming onto the job market as secretaries. Classically, girls have learned shorthand and typing & gone into a company to lớn seek their fortune from the bottom - và that"s what happened lớn John Bowman. Although he joined a national grocery chain as secretary to lớn its first woman senior manager, he has since been promoted lớn an administrative job. "I filled in the application form và said I could vì chưng audio/typing, và in fact I was the only applicant. The girls were reluctant to lớn work for this young, glamorous new woman with all this power in the firm. Đỗ Bình – trung học phổ thông Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 6NEW CURRICULUM TEXTBOOK-BASED PRACTICE thử nghiệm UNIT 9: CHOOSING A CAREER I did typing at school, và then a commercial course. I just thought it would be useful finding a job. I never got any funny treatment from the girls, though I admit I"ve never met another male secretary. But then I joined the Post Office as a clerk và fiddled with the typewriter, và wrote letters, & thought that after all secretaries were getting a good £ 1,000 a year more than clerks lượt thích me. There were a shortage at that time, you see. It was simpler working for a woman than for a man. I found she made decisions, she told everybody what she thought, và there was none of that male bitchiness, or that stuff "ring this number for me dear" which men go in for. Don"t forget we were a team - that"s how I feel about it - not boss và servant but two people doing different things for the same purpose.” One high technology has made the job of secretary less routine, will there be a male takeover? Men should beware of thinking that they can walk right into the better jobs. There are a lot of women secretaries who will vị the job as well as them - not just because they can buy negligees for the boss"s wife, but because they are as efficient and well-trained to lớn cope with word processors and computers as men. 123.
