MR.BIGELOW:This is just what I needed.

[00:29.52]SIMON:It is a lovely park,isn't it>

[00:33.91]MR.BIGELOW:So tell me,Simon,how did you wind up here a restaurant manager in Boston?

[00:39.38]SIMON:Ah!Well,that's a bit of a puzzle to me,as well.

[00:42.67]2 MR.BIGELOW:Was your training in restaurants?

[00:44.76]SIMON:Oh no!After primary and secondary 1 schools I went to university.

[00:49.34]Manchester.Modern languages.

[00:52.42]3 MR.BIGELOW:That's a lot of tests.

[00:54.31]SIMON:Oh yes,I passed all kinds of exams.

[00:57.31]MR.BIGELOW:I was never any good at taking tests.

[01:00.41]I barely 2 got through elementary school.

[01:03.22]4 MR.BIGELOW:High school was worse.And it was years before I went to college.

[01:08.21]And I didn't do very well there either,I'm afraid.

[01:12.22]SIMON:Oh,I did well,but there was something missing 3.

[01:16.42]5 SIMON:At the end of the day,I wanted experience that was...

[01:21.12]MR.BIGELOW:Hands-on. SIMON:Exactly.

[01:22.92]MR.BIGELOW:Find out the way it works 4 in the real world. SIMON:Yes.

[01:25.82]6 MR.BIGELOW:So you got a job!

[01:27.62]SIMON:NO.I went back to business school for management studies.

[01:31.61]MR.BIGELOW:More tests!

[01:39.00]1 WENDY:He was talking to Anne.At first I thought he was so mean.

[01:53.09]A real snob,you know?

[01:55.25]2 SIMON:He'os not,though.He said he barely got through school.

[01:58.73]He told me he did really badly at university.

[02:02.33]3 WENDY:Well,he learned 5 to run a company somewhere.

[02:05.40]He makes a ton of money.

[02:07.78]SIMON:That's the thing.He said he was bad at maths.

[02:11.57]4 WENDY:At what?

[02:13.15]SIMON:Maths.

[02:15.05]WENDY:You mean math?

[02:16.73]SIMON:We say maths.

[02:18.62]WENDY:You must mean all the different maths.

[02:21.82]Because I mean the one basic math. SIMON:Whatever.

[02:25.20]5 SIMON:But Wendy,listen to this.He told me making money is easy.

[02:29.59]He said,"If I buy someting for one dollar,and sell it for two,

[02:34.37]I make money from that one per cent difference."

[02:38.04]6 WENDY:One per cent?You mean a hundred per cent.

[02:41.74]SIMON:Right.The man can't figure a percentage to save his life.

[02:46.22]WENDY:Tell me about it.You should see the tip he left me!

[02:49.92]1 SHARON:George,would you mind taking care of this for me?

[03:03.12]You did such a good job last time.

[03:05.21]GEORGE:Sure.I'll do it as soon as I can.

[03:08.40]SHARON:Thanks ever so much.See you later. GEORGE:Bye.

[03:12.10]2 NINA:George? GEORGE:Yeah?

[03:15.38]NINA:What was that all about?

[03:18.36]GEORGE:Oh!Sharon just wants me to arrange 6 some fransportation for a guest.

[03:24.55]3 NINA:Ah,that's not your job.

[03:27.55]GEORGE:She just wants me to help her occasionally 7.

[03:29.86]NINA:She wants you to help her occasionally?

[03:32.76]GEORGE:Well... NINA:George,I don't think so.I need you 100%in this office.

[03:39.46]GEORGE:Right.

[03:41.86]4 NINA:Next time,would you please tell her that you have your own work to do?

[03:45.96]GEORGE:I'd better do that now.

[03:48.17]But it won't be easy coming up against her southern charm 8.
