“I’m very tired from working here,”said Jean to her friend Kate,” I’m on my feet from morning to night. For the first quarter of the day, I clean up the counter (柜台) and set the tables. For the next quarter, I help in the kitchen. For the second half of my workday, I take orders at the counters.”
    “Kate, I wish I had your job,”Jean went on. “For four hours you just sit at the cash register (收款台) taking in money.”
    “But I spend two more hours in the kitchen (厨房) than you do,”said Kate. “It’s tiring to cook over a hot stove. I don’t think you’d really want my job. In fact, I’d like your job.”
