My name's Alan. I work in an office, but I'm not sitting at my desk this week. I'm doing a Leadership Course for new managers.
At the moment we're building a bridge, because we need to cross a river. We're all working hard, but I think it's great. I certainly prefer this to the office.
I'm really enjoying it.
It's nine o'clock in the evening and Alan doesn't feel very happy now. He usually watches TV in the evening, but he isn't watching TV today. He's putting up a tent.
I don't think this. It's raining and I feel cold, wet, and hungry. Perhaps I don't want to be a manager after all.
