People and Money

A Jim Gareth

Money, or shall we say the constant absence of it, drives us crazy. I suppose it all started when I was at university, and I’d borrowed quite a large sum by the time I graduated. When you are a fresh graduate, it’s difficult to find a good job and I got into debt quite rapidly. I haven’t been able to repay what I borrowed for some years now. My wife was in exactly the same situation when she graduated and she came into our relationship with her own debts. Then there were the expenses with the wedding, of course, and now we’re totally broke!

B Karen Jones

Our situation became critical last year, as we were in danger of getting evicted from our house because we weren’t able to pay the mortgage. In the end we had to borrow a lot of money from my husband’s family. It has taught us a valuable lesson though: don’t get a larger house than you can afford, especially for a rip-off price, and certainly don’t recklessly overspend on a costly wedding if you’re already in debt!

C Henry Pollack

My wife says that I am really stingy with money, but I would call myself sensible. I don’t think spending wisely is mean at all. You see, I have always been in charge of our family finances and I think my wife is grateful to me for taking that responsibility solely on myself. All my married life, I have been sitting down with a glass of sherry on a Sunday evening to work out a weekly budget fromour total income, planning carefully what we could afford to buy and how much we would have to save up for the more costly items, such as a new TV or washing machine. Unlike our friends, we go on holiday every year, and I can assure you that our earnings are quite modest.

D Evelyn Simmons

Our pensions are not much to boast about, but we are doing fine. We manage to pay our bills, we’ve paid off our mortgage and we still have some money left over for life’s little luxuries. And if times got really hard, we have a few valuable items in our loft that could fetch quite a large sum at auction(拍卖). We’ll be fine, as long as we have each other.

We usually work from 9: 00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. However, for some people, it’s bedtime. These people are night workers. Working at night brings particular problems: Family life is difficult, social life is limited and it’s bad for people’s health. With all these problems, who choose to work at night, and are they planning to stay in their jobs?

“I work at night because I like stars very much. I’m the happiest when I’m looking down my telescope. The stars are amazing, and it’s great taking pictures of them. Honestly, I’m never going to change my job. Of course, my social life is poor, but I’m going to make friends with people abroad online. They are awake when I’m working.”

--Robert Moore

“My work involves repairing railway tracks, so I have to work at night. It’s not so bad, our team spirit is great and we get paid extra. However, I’m going to leave this job. It’s tiring and I have to find a normal job because I will become a father next month. I hope to be a builder in the future. It’s hard work, but no more nights!”

--Tony Baggio

“When I came to this country, the only work I could find was as a night doorman. This job is boring because it’s so quiet, but I’ve decided to turn this problem into an advantage. I’m going to start a degree in literature by distance learning. I’m going to read my course books during the long quiet nights! I want to be a teacher in the future.”

--John Millar

“I work in a call center in India, but I answer calls from people in the UK. So I have to work at night. It’s a good job with a good salary. It’s also interesting because I use my English and talk with different people every day.”

--Peter Patel
