M: I’d like to go to the States, but if I took the job there, I wouldn’t get a very good salary.
W: Really? I thought salaries were high there, but there would be some fringe benefits presumably.
M: Oh, yes. It’d be stimulating and it has some advantages.
W: What else do you have in mind?
M: Well, there’s a position in Portugal.
W: How does it compare?
M: It’d offer greater security, because it’d be on a homebase contract.
W: And salary?
M: Much better. I’ll get an overseas allowance plus free accommodation from the firm.
W: Presumably you’d be given moving expenses for the Portugal job?
M: Yes, but just to complicate matters, there’s a possibility of a post in Sao Paulo.
W: That’s Brazil, isn’t it?
M: Yes. I’d get promotion if I took a post there.
W: I’d love to go to Brazil.
M: But there are some disadvantages. I’d have to do a five-year term there.
W: Personal problem surely?
M: Well, not at the moment. But if there were a change in family circumstances, I’d be a long way from home.
W: But if you’re worried about distance, isn’t that the same problem with the States?
M: Yes, but in the States I’d be on an annual contract, so I could leave fairly quickly if I needed to.
W: In Portugal?
M: Well, that’s almost next door, isn’t it? I could visit home every few months if necessary.
W: I can see you’ve got a difficult choice to make.
M: Well, fortunately I don’t have to make up my mind about any of them yet. In fact, I haven’t even been called for an interview.
