W: So, have you found a job yet?
   M: No, but, I have a few leads, so things are looking up.
   W: But isn’t that what you always say?
   M: Well… uh… this time is different.
   W: What kind of job are you looking for?
   M: Actually, I want to work for a Web hosting company.
   W: What would you do there exactly?
   M: Well, in a nut shell, Web hosting companies provide space for people to store and run their Websites. Does it sound like I know what I’m talking about?
   W: Oh, yeah, sort of.
   M: Well, and then, sort of? Well, they allow people to maintain their own servers, and I’d like to work in technical support, you know, helping customers resolve computer-related problems with their sites. And you know I’m a good communicator.
   W: So, how’s the pay for that sort of job?
   M: Well, most people I know start out with a very reasonable salary; you can earn pay increases depending on your performance.
   W: So, what about benefits?
   M: Oh, the benefits are pretty good. They provide health insurance, two weeks of paid vacation a year, and opportunities for advancement. And in the end, I’d like to work in a management position. You know, sitting back, enjoying the view out of the twentieth-story window of the office building. Something like that.
   W: Well, is there long-term job security in a job like that?
   M: Ugh. That’s hard to tell. I mean, the Internet is booming, and these kinds of companies are sprouting up everywhere, which is a good thing, but just like the dot-com era, you never know how long things will last.
   W: Well, have you ever thought about going back to school to improve your job skills?
   M: Wait, wait. What are you suggesting?
   W: You know, you did drop out of college.
   M: I know, I know. Yeah, but, you know, I don’t have the resources at the moment to do that; however, the job I am looking at will pay for some classes after I have been with the company for six months.
   W: Well, it looks like you have things planned out this time.
   M: If I last that long.
