   A few years ago, I lost my job as a manager in a factory. I was so unhappy. I was thirty-eight years old, out of work for the 100th time, and without much hope. Then, one day I was thinking about the question, "What do I do best?" and the answer came to me. I have been out of work many times, so I knew every manual(指南) about how to find a job or change a career. I must have been to over 100 interviews in my life, made 1000 phone calls asking for jobs, and sent out resumes to almost 2000 companies. Career Consulting. It’ s a business that helps people find jobs. I hired two people to work with me. The three of us work together on everything, but I’ m the boss. It’ s great. I love the work, and I make a lot of money!

   It wasn’ t easy to get this job. I had to have about 11 , 000 jumps and about two years of training. And the salary was only $15 ,000 for the first year. But I don’t do it for the money. In fact, I don’ t need to get paid at all. I love it that much!
