After Work

Jill teaches five hours a day, twenty – five hours a week altogether. She finishes work at about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. Then she catches a bus home. The buses are sometimes very full, so she takes the underground. Twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays, she goes to a big supermarket. She buys a lot of things there. Steve leaves his office at about 6 o’clock. Then he hurries home. After supper Steve washes the dishes and he reads or spends time on hobbies. Jill reads a book or a woman’s magazine, or sometimes watches a film on television.

Maria is always busy with her job. She gets to the office before 8.30. She takes off her coat, puts on her reading glasses and sits down at her desk. Then she reads her mail and fills out the daily reports. If she has enough time, she has a cup of coffee.

At 9.00 the other workers arrive. Some of them are too tired to smile. Sometimes Maria is too busy to talk, but she says hello to everyone.

At 9.30 she goes into the boss’s office. She gives him the daily reports. They always talk about them for a few minutes. She tells the boss her plans for the day. Then she goes back to her office and makes phone calls. The company does business in England and Japan, so sometimes she has to call these countries.

At the end of the day she picks up the children at school. They are always happy to see her, and she is always energetic enough to play with them at home. Maria is important to the people at the office and to the people at home, and she does a good job at both places.
