Which job does the woman suggest to the man?
M: I really don’ t know what to do this summer. I can’ t afford to just sit a-round, and there don’t seem to be any jobs available.
W: Why don’t you try house-sitting? Last summer my friend Sally house-sat for the Gammons when they went away on vacation. Mrs. Gammon hired Sally to stay in their house because she didn’ t want it left empty.
M: You mean the Gammons paid Sally just to live in their house?
W: It wasn’ t easy. She had to mow the lawn and water the houseplants. And when Jodi house-sat for Mr. Johnson, he had to take care of his pets.
M: House-sitting sounds like a good job. I guess it’ s a little like baby-sitting—except you’ re taking care of a house instead of children.
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have to fill out an application?
W: Sally and Jodi had to interview with the homeowners and provided three references each.
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: Well, the homeowners want some guarantee so that they can trust the house-sitter. You know, they want to make sure you’ re not the type who’ 11 throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.
M: House-sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren’ t paid then.
W: Usually they’ re paid anyway just because the homeowners don’ t want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to get another job. So if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’ t be able to get another job. So why don’ t you apply?
M: Yeah, I think I will.
