Conversations about jobs!



Practice talking about your jobs:

Student A: 

What do you do for a living?

Student B: 

I'm a teacher of English. I work in Phan Thiet and I work for Co Tu's Homestay. How about you? What do you do?

Student A:

I'm a developer. I work in California, USA. And I work for Microsoft.

Student B: 

Wow! Really amazing. Can you describe your company?

Student A:

Yeah, my company is huge. It's an American corporation. We have over 150,000 employees, the headquarter is located in Washington and we have many branches all over the world.

How about your homestay? Can you describe it?

Student B: 

Well, It's just a small, local and family business homestay. We have only about 10 staff. We have 2 branches: 1 in Phan Thiet and 1 in Mui Ne. Maybe in the future we will open a new homestay in Da Lat or Nha Trang.




What products or services do you sell?

Student A:

Let me see... We have many softwares and apps like Microsoft word, excel, powerpoint, Skype and so on...

Student B:

Yeah, I know Skype and Microsoft office. I really like them all.

Student A:

Wow, I'm happy to know that. And you? What products or services do you sell?

Student B:

As you know, It's a homestay, so we have different kinds of rooms for guests like family rooms, double rooms and dorm rooms. We also cook breakfast, lunch and dinner and sell some drinks like coffee and soft drinks. We offer Jeep tours to the guests and blah blah blah...

At the same time, we teach English for adults, teenagers and little kids too. Here, we teach people how to communicate English for different topics.

Student A:

It sounds a lot of fun! How are your co workers?



Student B:

Because we are a family business homestay, so everyone's very close, friendly, funny and happy. We sometimes have dinner or go to the coffeeshop together. We travel once or twice a year to Da Lat or Phan Rang. We really have a lot of fun.

Student A:

It's really nice. Because my company is so big, we have so many staff in the office, so I even don't know everyone. I just say "hi" to anyone I meet in the office, some of them are quite friendly, but the others are not really.

But I love my team, we have only 15 staff in my team, 14 of us are boys and only 1 is a girl. Everyone's so funny, caring and helpful. We often make jokes and laugh a lot in the office. After work, we often hang out to the movie theater, coffeeshop, bars and bla bla. We sometimes travel together around USA and to other Europe countries too.

Student B:

Awesome! How about your boss?



Student A:

My boss is quite strict, difficult and demanding. But she's very talented, kind and generous. Whenever I have any problems, she's ready to help me a lot. How about your boss?

Student B:

My boss? She's my mom. She's quite hot tempered, difficult and talkative, but she's really understanding and smart. I learn a lot from her too.

Student A:

Cool! Do you like your job?

Student B:

Yes, of course. I love it because I can meet and talk to different people. I can learn about their culture and so on. It's a fun and creative job, sometimes it may be boring and challenging.

How about you? Do you enjoy your job?

Student A:

Yeah, definitely. I love it, even though it's very stressed and challenging sometimes, we often work overtime and don't have so much time for family, but it's quite promising, I can get high salary and bonus too. And if I become good, I can have promotion.
