Saturday jobs

For questions 1-7, choose the correct text (A, B or C).

A

Dani: café assistant

I work at a small café in the town centre every Saturday from 8 until 2. My job is to clear the tables and wash cups, and sometimes I make sandwiches. It's hard work when it's busy, but the other staff are really kind. I get £7 an hour, and I can have lunch there for free. I'm saving for a new laptop. The worst thing is getting up so early. I have to catch the first bus at 7.15.

B

Theo: garden centre helper

I've worked at the garden centre near my house for about six months. It's only a ten-minute walk, so I never have to worry about buses. I mostly water the plants and help customers carry heavy things to their cars. The pay isn't great, but I love being outside, even when it's raining. Last month my manager asked me to work on Sundays too, but I said no because I play football then.

C

Ruth: shoe shop assistant

I started at a shoe shop in the shopping centre in January. I help customers find the right size and put shoes back in their boxes. I was very shy before, but talking to strangers every week has made me much more confident. I work from 10 till 4. My parents want me to save my money for university, so it all goes into the bank. I'd like to work more hours in the summer holidays.
