M: Hi! Jane, what have you been doing this summer holiday?
W: Working, mostly.
M: What kind of work have you been doing?
W: I’ve been working in a hotel.
M: What, as a waitress?
W: No, I’ve been helping in the kitchen most of the time—washing vegetables, preparing breakfast trays—that sort of thing.
M: Have you been enjoying it? Or has it been rather boring?
W: It hasn’t been too bad. I’ve found it quite interesting, in fact.
M: And have you earned a lot of money?
W: Hardly, but I haven’t done too badly. I’ve been getting $40 a week, plus my meals and my accommodation, so I’ve earned over $500 all together.
