M: I really don’t know what to do this summer. I can’t afford to just sit around, and there don’t seem to be any jobs available.
W: Why don’t you try house-sitting? last summer my friend Margaret house-sat for the Dodds when they went away on vacation. Mr. Dodd hired Margaret to stay in their house because he didn’t want it left empty.
M: You mean the Dodds paid Margaret just to live in their house?
W: It wasn’t that easy. She had to mow the lawn and water the house plants. And when Eric house-sat for Dr. Cohen, he had to take care of her pats.
M: House-sitting sounds like a good job. I guess It’s little like baby-sitting—except you’re taking care of a house instead of children.
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have too fill out an application?
W: Margaret and Eric have to interview with the homeowners and provide three references each.
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: Well. The homeowners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter. You know, they want to make sure you’re not the type who’ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.
M: House-sitters who do that Sort of thing probably aren’t paid then.
W: Usually they’re paid anyway, just because the homeowners don’t want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to bet another job, So why don’t you apply?
M: Yeah, I think I will.
