B After I left school I went to work at my father s shop. He s got
a shop that sells sports equipment. At first, I learned all about
the things we sell  I didn t know anything about that when I
started. My father does his job very well and we have a lot of
customers. I m going to be the manager one day, but at the
moment I m learning the business.

didn t like the restaurant manager. We were all scared of him
because he was horrible to people all the time. The strange
thing is, he was really nice when he wasn t at work. Because
of him I left and now I work in another restaurant, where
everyone is very friendly.
