I love my job!1) Jo Banks is a well-known and successful TV journalist. Shes been married to her husband,Graham, for ten years. In June 2003, she was getting ready for a party to celebrate their tenthwedding anniversary when the phone rang. She found out that her colleague was ill and couldntattend a fashion show which was taking place in Milan that evening. Without hesitating, Jo agreed

to fly to Italy to report on the fashion show.2) Graham thought about cancelling the party, but he knew that a lot of friends and relatives werealready on their way. In the end, they had the party without Jo! All the guests were enjoyingthemselves when Jos young nephew switched on the TV to watch a DVD. Imagine his surprisewhen he saw Jo on the news. She was interviewing the top fashion designers and talking about whatwas happening at the show.

3) Jo loves her job and says, If youre a journalist, you cant say, No, Im busy. I cant go to Italy.You have to be unemotional and be able to change your plans at the last minute. You dont have tostay at home waiting for the phone to ring, but you must be flexible. Im lucky because my friendsand family understand when I cant be with them. Ive been a journalist since 1990 and they respectmy job. Jo definitely isnt a reliable guest. She has already missed several weddings and other

important events. If you invite her to your party, she might not come, but youll probably see her onTV the next day!
