Jobs and contacts.
Work is very important in humans life. People should provide for their everyday needs by means of a working process. We need food, clothes and shelter. So we must work to earn living and produce goods and services.
I have a big family. All of us work not only to provide living, but to achieve some goals in life and career. My name is Helen. I am a retail buyer. I work for a supermarket chain. My job involves buying prepared salads and vegetables from local and national suppliers. I also take part in different logistics projects. For example, at the moment we're working with an external consultant. He's looking at ways to get our salads and vegetables to the supermarket shelves more quickly. My husband Ben works for the police, but hes not a policeman. A lot of his work consists of answering questions from journalists when the police are in the news. Hes also involved in a new project to attract new people to the police force. For this, hes working with senior police officers and with outside employment agencies. Hes a public relations officer. My sister Sara is an occupational psychologist. Shes self-employed. Basically, she deals with problems of relations between staff. At the moment, for example, shes doing a study on virtual teamwork for one of her industrial customers. They work with many subcontractors all over the world, and their managers want to communicate better with their colleagues abroad. Sara works a lot with training organizations which provide the courses her customers need. My son Peter is an office worker in an insurance company. Its a nine-to-five job with regular working hours. They all have to clock in and clock out every day. In this company even the managers have to, which is unusual. My daughter Hana is in computer programming. Theres a system of flextime in her company, which means she can work when she wants, within certain limits. Hana can start at any time before eleven, and finish as early as three, as long as she does enough hours each month. Its ideal for my daughter as she has two young children.
We like our jobs. We have different duties and responsibilities. Sometimes its very difficult to have contacts with lots of people and deals with different business affairs every day. But life would be boring without working.
