Task 2: Before the cutback
Script
Barbara: I’ve really got to think about my future. You’ve heard of the cutbacks the management’s making, right?
Alan: Oh, yes. I’ve heard it. But you haven’t anything to be concerned about.
Barbara: Around here you never know from one day to the next whether you can keep your job
.Alan: Come on, they won’t let you go. You’ve been for so long. Besides, you’re good at your job.
Barbara: That might be, but I feel that I’ve reached the glass ceiling in this company.
Alan: Glass ceiling? What do you mean by that?
Barbara: I’ve been working here for ten years. I haven’t gotten a promotion 1 in three years. I thought I should be Vice 2 President by now. If I were a man, I’m sure I would be Vice President.
Alan: There’s no official company policy, but it’s true that they don’t promote women to management positions here.
Barbara: I can see the writing on the wall. I think it’s time to change job, and maybe even careers, if I want to get ahead.
Alan: Change career? That’s a big jump. If you change careers, what will you do?
Barbara: I’m doing market research here, but I studies public relations in college. I’d like to do PR for a large multinational 3 company.
Alan: That sounds exciting, and the pay would be better, too. Yeah, if I would keep an eye on the job positing 4 on the Internet.
Barbara: Sooner or later something good is bound to turn up in the job market.
