W: Good evening, and welcome to this week’s “Business World,” the program for and about
businesspeople. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kane who has just taken over an established
bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kane, what made you want to run your own store？ M: Well, I’ve
always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a
big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough
money to get my own business going, I’d do it. I had my heart set on it, and I didn’t let
anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I’d
love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when
I want. W: You mean you don’t keep regular hours？ M:Well, the sign on my store says the
hours are 10:00 to 6:00, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take
off early. W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet？ M: Yeah, a couple of
friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It’s
great because … we play cards or just sit around and talk when there’re no customers. W:
Thank you, Mr. Kane. We wish you success in your new business.
