M: Jenny, how was your work recently?

W: Well, it’s not bad. As a storyteller and media consultant for NASA, I have many opportunities to talk with the famous scientists in the country. And the pay is really good. But there is a problem.

M: What is it?

W: I often have to work on the weekend. And sometimes I’ve to work overtime at night. So I don’t have much time of my own. I’ve no time for my parents and I even have not time to go on a blind date. So how is your work?

M: I face the same problem. But that’s my life. I can’t do much about it. You know, I’ve a big family to support. So I’ll just keep working like that.

W: But I’m considering quitting.

M: What? I can’t believe you’ll give up such a great job.

W: It’s true that it’s a really great job in many people’s eyes. I know thousands of people dream of such a job. But I should have my own life. I don’t want to be a work machine. Actually I’m considering moving to a small town somewhere. I’m sure life there can be more relaxing.

M: That’s true.
