M: I’d like to go to the States, but if I took the job there, I won’t get a very good salary.
W: Really? I thought salaries were high there, but there would be some fringe benefits presumably.
M: Oh, yes. (9) It would be stimulating and it has some advantages.
W: What else do you have in mind?
M: Well, this position in Portugal.
W: How does it compare?
M: It offers greatest security, because it will be on a home-base contract.
W: And salary?
M: Much better. I get an overseas allowance plus free accommodation from the firm.
W: Presumably you will be given moving expenses for the Portugal job?
M: (10-1) Yes, but just to complicate matters, this possibility offers a post in Sao Paulo.
W: That’s Brazil, isn’t it?
M: Yes. (10-2) And I’ll get a promotion if I took a post there.
W: I’d love to go to Brazil.
M: But there are some disadvantages. (11-1) I’d have to do a five-year term there.
W: That’s not a problem, surely?
M: Well, not at the moment. (11-2) But if there were a change in family circumstances, I’d be a long way from home.
W: But if you worry about distance, isn’t that the same problem with the States?
M: Yes, but in the States I will be on an annual contract, so I can leave fairly quickly if I needed to.
W: In Portugal?
M: Well, that’s almost next door, isn’t it? I can visit home every a few months if necessary.
W: I can see you’ve got a difficult choice to make.
M: Well, fortunately I don’t have to make up my mind about any of them yet. (12) In fact, I haven’t even been called for an interview.
