2.Hi Boris, How are you? I hope you are enjoying the summer vacation. I am writing to ask you for some advice. As you know, I graduated this month, and it is the time to decide what I'm going to do next.The problem is that I have two choices and I'm not very sure which one to choose. Last week, I had a job interview for the position of cashier at a bank. It is a permanent position with full-time hours, and I've been offered the job.The pay is not bad, and the benefits are great. I’ve met the team and my colleagues seem friendly, but the problem is that it is a nine to five job and the hours are not flexible. I'm not sure it's what I really want to do. There’s another job I am really interested in though. I’ve found out about an internship position as a reporter at an online magazine for young people. The hours are flexible,and the job sounds really interesting. In fact, it's what I've always wanted to do. There's just one problem: I would hardly earn any money. What should I do? I don't want to rely on my parents for money.However, I would like to get some valuable experience in doing the kind of work I have always wanted to do. I would really appreciate your advice. If you have time to meet me for a coffee, that would be great! With best wishes, Valerie

My boss just did me a favor by putting me on evenings. And he'll hit the ceiling if I ask him to change again. K、W: Wait a minute. I have an idea. Have you checked the courses over at the community college？ They might offer an introductory poetry course during the day. L、M: Hey, that's a great idea, I'm free this afternoon.
