[originaltext]M：Hi there. (19)Have you heard that the company is cutting staff?

M：Hi there. (19)Have you heard that the company is cutting staff? I just hope I wouldn’t be that unlucky.
W：Ha, don’t be afraid of that. To tell you, actually I just took voluntary redundancy four years ago.
M：I can’t imagine that! But how do you go through it?
W：Oh, it is of course not a very happy experience to go through. But, as we may find out, sometimes it can be a blessing in disguise.
M：I do need some advice to turn it into a good thing.
W：(19)My advice would be to see it as an opportunity to create a new life. And if you reinvent your life, remember that you’ve got to reeducate yourself and that means investing in yourself. (20)And one of the best ways is to do a lowly paid or unpaid internship or to be an apprentice.
M：I thought you’d tell me to go and blow it on a cruise or a holiday.
W：That is not bad. But getting some experience will help you into a next kind of life.
M：Oh, then what was your plan ? You had anything different?
W：Well, you know, (21)I have received some compensation and I saw that an opportunity to get rid of some debts, so I paid off some bills. And the financial freedom then allowed me to develop some new skills, find out what I enjoy in life. things that I am good at.
M：Sounds sensible but how are things with you now?
W：(22)Basically I have now developed what they call a career portfolio. That means instead of being able to do just one job in life you are able to do more than one.
