问题     Mr. Fisher
    I’m an accountant and earn a good enough salary to live comfortably. Basically I’m family man, as long as I have a job which enables me to earn enough money to live, I’m happy. I find a comfortable life compensates for the fact that I have a routine life and three weeks holiday per year. I enjoy my profession up to a point, but it certainly doesn’t rule my life. As soon as I get home I forget about the office. I would say basically I work to live.

    I’m a school teacher and I like my job very much. Work plays one of the most important roles in my life. It gives me the satisfaction I need and a role in society. As far as I am concerned, I must enjoy whatever I do—even if the salary is low—otherwise I feel it isn’t worth doing.
    Mr. Evans
    I used to work in industry. At that time I had a good salary and a job which involved a lot of travelling abroad. I always felt I was in the wrong job. I felt tense all the time and I suddenly realized that, in spite of security and what seemed to my friends to be an exciting job, I’d stopping enjoying simple but important things. So five years ago, I gave up the job and became a journalist and photographer. I’m very happy now because I’m doing what I want to do.
    Mr. Smith
    I’m satisfied with my job. It’s coming to grips with the problems of my subject and with the problems of teaching in the University. Clearly this is the type of satisfaction that most people doing what we call in England "white collar" jobs. This is quite different from the sort of craftsman, who is either working with his hands or with his skills on a machine, or from people perhaps who are using artistic skills which are of different character. They get the sort of physical job satisfaction from their jobs. But what I get is different.
    Mrs. Kramer
    I think in our present day society, for most people work has very little value at all. Most of us go out to work for about eight to nine hours of our working day. We do things which are either totally futile and totally useless or have very little justification whatsoever, and for most of us the only reason for working is that we need to keep ourselves alive, to pay for somewhere to live, to pay to feed our children. And that’s also what I think of the value of my work.
