Episode 30: Career decisions

Tim: Hi Alice, what are you reading?
Alice: Oh. It's about maternity and baby care. They've asked me to change wards.
Tim: But you love working in the emergency wards.
Alice: Yes, well...I want to work with Dr. Laver.
Tim: Dr. Laver?
Alice: He specialises in looking after children. He's a great doctor, really friendly with the patients.
Tim: I see. And he's not bad looking, I suppose?
Alice: Don't be ridiculous! I'm thinking about my career.
Tim: But you want your own children. Don't you think it'd be horrible looking after other people's kids?
Alice: Yeah, that's the problem. So I haven't decided whether to take the job or not.
