Magda: (talking into phone) So…ok…hmm...yeah! That’s great news!

Olivia: So? Did you get the job?

Magda: Yes!!!

All: Hooray!! Fantastic! Well done!!

Magda: But...

Harry: There’s always a ‘but’...

Magda: It’s only on a trial basis...just for a month.

Harry: Ok, that’s pretty normal actually. Most companies do that.

Olivia: But they are paying you, yes?

Magda: Oh yes, the salary isn’t bad. It’s not an internship.

Harry: I did internships for ages...had to work for a month to get experience – no pay! – and then I never got offered the real job at the end. Like now! I’m doing this work for Johnny’s company – they want me to work at weekends too – Saturdays and Sundays – with no extra money!

Olivia: That’s terrible!

Harry: I don’t know what to do...I want to say ‘no’, but I’m afraid I’ll lose the job...

Olivia: You’ll have to think carefully about it!

Magda: Or you’ll be trying to do an internship again!!! Only joking! It can be important to do an internship if you want to get experience – things to put on your CV...

Harry: Yeah, I guess you’re right, but I’m past that stage...I’ve got lots of experience now.

Magda: I’m really worried though, about my first day, really nervous. I might be terrible!

Olivia: Don’t worry Magda, you’ll be great. Show them how good you are in the first month and they’ll be offering you more money by the second month!

Magda: Let’s hope so!

Harry: What are you going to be doing exactly?

Magda: Well, it’s a lot of admin work..but I do get a chance to work with the senior partners on some designs.

Harry: Great...What is it you do again?

Olivia: Harry! How come you always forget this stuff?

Magda: Architecture! I’m an architect! I design buildings!

Harry: Oh yeah, right, of course...

Sarah: She’s a good one too, Harry – I’ve seen some of her drawings. I keep on telling her that she should go to China – there are lots of opportunities there at the moment.

Magda: Maybe, one day. That’d be really interesting...How are you, Sarah?

Sarah: OK...

Harry: How’s the new flat?

Sarah: That’s the problem...

Olivia: Oh no! You’ve only just moved in!

Magda: I thought the flat was great...

Sarah: The flat is nice, but the problem is the landlord...

Olivia: Isn’t that Fadi’s cousin?

Sarah: Yes, exactly...but he’s really intrusive.

Magda: Intrusive?

Sarah: He comes round all the time, wants to know everything about me. I think that if I pay rent, that’s it, I shouldn’t have to tell him anything else.

Olivia: I see...that’s not on, is it? Have you mentioned it to Fadi?

Sarah: No, I don’t know how to. He was so kind helping me get the place. I don’t want to seem rude.

Olivia: Would you like me to have a word with him?

Sarah: Could you? That’d be really great. I’d really appreciate it.

Olivia: I’ll say something the next time I see him! Promise!
