Tom: Yes, I saw the advertisement about the job in yesterday's paper.
Susan: Well, Mr. Swain, I'd like to talk about your personality. You know, the right personality is essential for the job, and we'll give you some psychological tests later on. Perhaps you would like to tell me a little about yourself.
Tom: Certainly. What would you like to know?
Susan: Well, you know, human relations are going to be particularly important in this job. Tell me do you get on well with people?
Tom: Very well indeed. I'm never short of friends.
Susan: Good. Sometimes, though, you may have to be very tough, for example, you may have to sack someone. Would you say that you are capable of being really hard?
Tom: If something has to be done, I'll do it.
Susan: You studied Management Sciences in the UK, didn't you? By the way, what type of degree did you get?

Tom: My thesis? Organizational Factors in Successful Exporting.
Susan: Tell me, how many foreign languages do you speak?
Tom: Three, French, Spanish and some Arabic, oh I've started learning Japanese.
Susan: You'll have to work abroad a lot. And that can be very frustrating sometimes. Would you say that you are a patient person?
Tom: Yes, and I would say that I'm a very patient person. I've never seen the point in losing one's temper.
Susan: It's very good. Can you keep a secret? A lot of the information you'll be dealing with will be classified.
Tom: It will be quite safe with me.
Susan: And then you'll have a lot of reports to write. Often under pressure. Do you think you can write for a deadline?
Tom: I usually get things finished on time. The pressure often helps.

Mr. Clinton: Tom, I know you've been with the company for a while, but raises here are based on merit, not on length of employment. Now, you do your job adequately, but you don't do it well enough to deserve a raise at this time. I've told you before, to earn a raise you need to take more initiative and show more enthusiasm for the job. Uh, for instance, maybe find a way to make the office run more efficiently.
Tom: All right. Maybe I could show a little more enthusiasm. I still think that I work hard here. But a company does have at least an obligation to pay its employees enough to live on. And the salary I'm getting here isn't enough. I can barely cover my expenses.
Mr. Clinton: Tom, again , I pay people what they're worth to the company, not what they think they
need to live on comfortably. If you did that the company would go out of business.
Tom: Yes, but I have .I have been here for five years and I have been very loyal. And it's absolutely necessary for me to have a raise or I cannot justify keeping this job any more.
