I love my job
Jo Banks is a TV journalist. Shes been married to her husband,
Graham, for ten years. In June 2003, she was organising a party to
celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary when the phone rang. She
suddenly had to go to Italy to report on a fashion show. In the
end, Graham and their friends and family had the party without Jo!
During the party they switched on the TV. Jo was interviewing a
famous fashion designer and talking about what was happening at the
show.

No, Im busy. I cant go to Italy tomorrow. You have to be able to
change your plans at the last minute. You dont have to stay at home
waiting for the phone to ring, but you must be flexible. Im lucky
because my friends and family understand when I cant be with them.
Ive been a journalist since 1990 and they respect my job.

events. If you invite Jo to your party, she might not come, but

QUAKE
I interviewed Eric Jones, a survivor of the 1989 earthquake in
San Francisco. Eric is a computer geek and he said that if he hadnt
been so interested in computers, he would have died that day. The
earthquake happened at 5 p.m. local time on Tuesday 17th October.
Two hours before, hed gone to a business meeting. He had planned to
go home after the meeting to finish work on a new computer program.
However, when the meeting ended, he realised that hed left the new
computer program in his office. Hed planned to spend the evening
working on the new program and so he decided to drive back to work
to get it. At 5 p.m., Eric was opening the door to his office; at
5.03 p.m., Erics apartment was destroyed by the earthquake. Eric
told me that luckily he was living on his own at the time and that
most of his neighbours were still working. I asked him if he
thought he was lucky. He said that fifty-seven people had died that
day and if he hadnt had such a bad memory, fifty-eight people would
have died.
