W: Simon, how does it feel to be retired?
M: Well, not so bad.
W: How have you been spending your time?
M: (1) I have been spending more time with my family. I’ve also traveled a bit, you know, off season when everywhere is less crowded and hotels cost less.
W: Great!
M: You know I haven’t stopped work completely.
W: Yes, could you tell us more about this?
M: I’m on a scheme that’s called phased retirement; I had a six-month break from work, after that I could apply for project work with the company I used to work for.

M: Well, it’s a trial at the moment. Instead of hiring temporary stuff, (2) the company advertises posts on its website that retired employees like me can access.
W: What sort of works advertised?
M: Well, all sorts of things, really. Administrative work and more specialized work, the sort of thing I can do. Some of the projects can last five or six months, and others can just be a couple of days. I can decide more or less when to work. (1) So I can manage my own time.
W: I can see it’s good for you. What is your company get out of this?
M: (3) Well, I still have all my old contacts at work, so I know who to contact to get something done. The company gets flexibility, too. Once the job’s over, that’s it. I’m not on their books any more.
