B. That article about the young entrepreneurs was really interesting, wasn’t it?
S. Yes, it was. I wish I could think of a good business idea and make money like that.
B. Well, I think the idea is important, but there are other things too, like being motivated and working hard.
S. And being lucky! I mean, you need to have the right idea at the right time don’t you?
B. Yes, of course you do, but that’s not enough without the hard work and dedication, I mean, my cousin runs her own business and she seems to work 12 hours a day, including weekends! I’m not sure I could do that. I like my sleep too much.
S. I’m sure you could work hard if you earned a lot of money, couldn’t you?
B. Yes, I suppose I could, but money’s not everything. You need free time to spend it!
S. True. But hey, we don’t need much time to spend a lot of money. Do you remember last time we went shopping? We lived on potatoes and tinned tomatoes for the rest of the month.
B. Yeah, we went a bit crazy, didn’t we?
S. We certainly did! I’m not doing that again. I like to eat well.
B. Talking of food, you’ve seen that new Tunisian restaurant in Abbey Street haven’t you?
S. Yes, I have. Why?
B. Well, they’re advertising for a waitress. I though I might apply.
S. You aren’t being serious are you?
B. I am. I need some money for the summer holidays.
S. But you don’t know anything about food and you haven’t got any experience!
B. Sophie, you don’t need experience – I’ll just dress sexily, smile sweetly and the job will be mine.
S. I’ll believe it when I see it!
