Why did the man give up studying physics?
When I was at school, my ambition was to be a pilot in the airport. But my eyesight wasn’t good enough, so 1 had to give up that idea. I went to university and studied physics. I wanted to stay there and do research, but my father died about that time, so I thought I had better get a job and earn my living. I started working in an engineering firm. I expected to stay in that job for a long time, but then they appoint ed a new managing director. I didn’t get on with him, so I resigned and applied for a job with another engineering company. I would certainly have accepted the job if they had offered it to me. But on my way to the interview, I met a friend who was working for a travel agency. He offered me a job in Spain and I’ve al ways liked Spain, so I took it. I worked in the travel agency for two years, and then they wanted to send me to South America. But I had just got married, so I decided to stay here. Then we had a baby, and I wasn’t earning enough to support the family. So I started giving English lessons at a school in the evenings. I liked English teaching more than working for the travel agency, and then the owner of the school offered me a full-time job as a teacher. So I resigned from the agency. Two years later, the owner of the school wanted to retire, so he asked me to take over as tile director. And here I am.
