英语访谈对话 385 New Job

 　　Adrienne: So, Trina I understand you got a new job recently. What are you doing?

　　Trina: I am a flight attendant for a charter airline, World Airways¹, out of the United States, and we do mostly military charters into military air force bases and we do some other American football teams and some oil tycoons² into Africa.

　　Adrienne: Ooh, that sounds like an interesting job.

　　Trina: It is. It's very interesting. I get to travel all over the world to some destinations that people normally would not travel to.

　　Adrienne: Like what?

　　Trina: Like Osan Korea, which would not actually be a city if it were not for our American military being in the city. I've also been to Kuwait, and Frankfurt, and Tachikawa, Japan.

　　Adrienne: I see so it's kind of a mix of some big cities and then some smaller cities that you visit. What's your favorite city so far?

　　Trina: So far, I'd have to say that Tokyo is my favorite city. Lots of stuff to do. My sister lives there. Lots of shopping. Very fun, but super cold.

　　Adrienne: Well, that's because of the time of year. Wait till you come in the summer. It gets really hot.

　　Trina: I can't wait.
