1. I get up quite early every day and we are often expected to work in all weather. It’s a physical job, but we work in a team and I’m used to being tired at the end of a hard week. 2. I love the fact that no two days are ever the same. It’s very rewarding to see people learn and develop. I get a great sense of satisfaction when people know something which they didn’t know before the lesson started, and that maybe I had something to do with that. 3. Telecommuting is great for my situation because my wife works part-time and I’m often left with the baby and some household jobs like shopping, and doing the washing and cleaning. I don’t mind doing it as long as I get some peace and quiet in the evening and do 4 or 5 hours on the PC. 4. One thing that bothers me is the shift work, and also government cuts are really influencing / have really been influencing / have really influenced the way we do our job. I don’t know how it’s going to affect / will affect / will be affecting us in the future, but it’s become more and more difficult over the last few years to give people the proper care and medical attention they need. 5. I don’t mind travelling in every day because I can read a book or have a good chat with a couple of neighbours who also commute from our village. My work involves a lot of organisation and telephone work. I need to be on top of things all the time and know what my bosses need in order to do their jobs properly. My job isn’t only making the coffee you know!
