Speaker A. When I was a small child, I felt irritated when adults asked me about what I wanted to become in the future, They are still asking. It's irritating, probably because I don't know the answer. I have no idea what job is right for me and I'm afraid of making the wrong choice. Dad says that I should do different summer or part-time jobs in order to understand what I want. And what if I don't understand it then? I don't mind working in the summer but I don't know what temporary job to apply for.

Speaker В. I've always known what I want to do as a career. No, I'm not making ambitious plans about becoming an ingenious scientist, or an astronaut, or a famous actor. I want to work with small children as there's nothing better than helping the curious explore the world. Working in an infant school would be very rewarding. It wouldn't actually be a job for me — it would be a privilege because I'd be enjoying every minute of it. If you say it would be difficult — yes, it would be, but it would never get boring.

Speaker С. Lots of teenagers want to get a summer job but not everyone gets one. The most common mistake is that they start looking for a job when the holidays are in full swing. The job search takes time and you should start it months before the holidays. First, make up a list of jobs you would like to do, then find out about the requirements and contact the employers. If you suit each other, leave your information and discuss the date when you are ready to start.

Speaker D. There are usually lots of opportunities for young people to earn money for things like snacks and drinks, outings and accessories. There are always plenty of vacancies for seasonal workers, waiters, couriers, cleaners etc. Being a full-time student is not an excuse to avoid getting a job. I really don't think that teenagers can understand the value of money and appreciate their families' care and support until they start working themselves.

Speaker Е. I think that doing temporary and part-time jobs does young people lots of good. I had my first summer job at the age of fifteen. I worked as a pizza seller in a fast-food cafe for two months. I still remember how difficult it was — there were always lots of people, it was hot and my legs and arms hurt. Since then I've worked as a courier, as a seasonal worker (picking apples and cherries) and as a landscape worker.
