MAN: Good evening. I'm ringing about the job. I understand you have vacant. WOMAN: Oh, yes. MAN: I'd like to find out a few more details, if I may. WOMAN: Yes, of course. Can I take your name?
2 MAN: It's Peter Chin. WOMAN: Okay, Peter. Well, if you want to ask about the job, and then if we're both still interested, we could arrange for you to come for an interview. MAN: Great, thanks. I'm afraid I missed the advert for the job, but heard about it from a friend. WOMAN: That's no problem at all. What would you like to know? MAN: Well, what sort of work is it washing up? WOMAN: It's answering the phone. MAN: Oh, right, fine. WOMAN: And not waiting at table. MAN: That'd be good. And how many nights a week would it be? WOMAN: Well, we're really only busy at the weekend. MAN: So two nights? WOMAN: Three, actually. So it would work out at 12 hours a week. MAN: That'd be fine. It wouldn't interfere with my studies. WOMAN: Are you at the university? MAN: Yes. First, you're a physics student. WOMAN: Oh, right. MAN: And because I'm not an EU national, would I need a work permit? WOMAN: Yes, you would. Just get your tutor to sign it. MAN: That wouldn't be a problem if I were to get the job. Where exactly is the restaurant? WOMAN: Well, we have two branches. The one we're recruiting for is in Hillsdon Road. MAN: I don't know that. How do you spell it, please? WOMAN: It's H-I-double L-S-D-U-double N-E Road. MAN: Got that. Thanks. Is it near a bus stop? WOMAN: Yes. The nearest one would probably be just beside the library. MAN: Oh, yes. I know it. That'd be fine for me. And could I ask about the pay? WOMAN: We're offering £4.45 an hour. MAN: That's very good. My last job was £3.95 an hour. ______________ WOMAN: We feel it's pretty good and we also offer some good fringe benefits. MAN: Really? WOMAN: Well, we give you a free dinner, so you eat well. MAN: Right. Better than hostel food. WOMAN: Oh, we certainly hope so. And we also offer extra pay for working on national holidays.
3 MAN: Oh, that's a really good perk, isn't it? WOMAN: Yes, we think so. And then because of the difficulties of getting public transport, if you're working after 11 o'clock, we drive you home. MAN: Oh, that's good to know. WOMAN: Well, we'd certainly be interested in inviting you for an interview if you're still interested. MAN: Oh, yes, certainly. Could I just also ask what qualities you're looking for? WOMAN: Well, for this particular job, we want a clear voice, which you obviously do have. MAN: Thanks. WOMAN: And you must be able to think quickly, you know? MAN: Well, I hope I... WOMAN: So, when could you come in for an interview? We're actually quite quiet tonight. MAN: Sorry, I couldn't come tonight. Or tomorrow, I'm afraid. Thirsty's okay. That'd be 22nd of October. WOMAN: Fine. After 5pm? MAN: Yes, fine. Would 6 o'clock be okay? WOMAN: Perfect. And could you bring along the names of two referees? MAN: Yes, that's fine. No problem. WOMAN: Good. I look forward to seeing you. MAN: Oh, by the way, who should I ask for? WOMAN: Oh, yes, of course. Sorry. My name is Samira Manuja. MAN: Uh, can you spell that, please? WOMAN: M-A-N-U-J-A. MAN: Okay. I've got that. Thanks very much.

Mickey, in your book you talk about what makes a champion sportsperson. Your argument is that talent – a natural aptitude or skill – doesn’t exist. Right? Man: Right. I know that’s controversial because it’s thought that people are born with natural abilities. I have my critics but the evidence from research I’ve done backs up my argument. If you look at anyone who’s reached a high level in any complex task, you’ll find they’ve spent many years building up to it. This has started other people thinking and doing their own research. I’ve no doubt they’ll reach the same conclusions I have. Woman: What about physical abilities like speed? Isn’t that what makes one footballer better than another, for example? Man: There are physical issues that are significant in some activities. However, in virtually all complex tasks the limiting factor is a mental thing. People don’t become the greatest footballers because they move around the pitch quickly. While he may not realise it, the way a great footballer understands where his teammates are around him on the field is what helps him score goals, rather than speed. Woman: In your book you also talk about geographical areas where lots of people become experts in the same activity. Gymnastics, for example. Man: The town I grew up in produced the top gymnasts of my generation, myself included. My initial reaction when I got to the top was, ‘Wow’, I must have been born with this ability to do gymnastics. But what about the others? What I now understand is that this excellence was down to having access to a fantastic coach and a 7-day-a-week gymnastics club, where we transformed ourselves from ordinary to extraordinary.
