Which job does the woman suggest to the man?
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 Sally house-sat for the Gammons when they went away on vacation.Mrs.Gammon hired Sally to stay in their house because she didn’t want it left empty.
M:You mean the Gammons paid Sally just to live in their house?
W:It wasn’t easy.She had to mow the lawn and water the houseplants.And when Jodi house-sat for Mr.Johnson,he had to take care of his pets.
M:House-sitting sounds like a good job.I guess it’s a 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 to fill out an application?
W:Sally and Jodi had to interview with the homeowners and provided three references each.
M:That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W:Well,the homeowners want some guarantee so 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 get another job.So if the homeowner reported it,then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to get another job.So why don’t you apply?
M:Yeah.I think I will.
