business english idioms job interview
sam currently runs his own company
selling used office furniture online
he's tired of running his own business
and wants to get a job with a big
company
i see from your resume that you're
running your own show as the owner of
old officechair.com that's right
i've carved out a niche selling used
office chairs over the internet
that sounds like a great business i was
making money hand over fist after the
dot com bust
companies were going belly up every day
and i snapped up all their chairs for a
song
but these days it's becoming harder and
harder to find used chairs
wouldn't you rather continue working for
yourself now
i'm tired of working for myself i can
see the writing on the wall
you'll jump ship when you think of
another good business idea
no i won't i'd always wanted to be an
entrepreneur but
i got that out of my system i realize
now that it's not all it's cracked up to
be
it certainly isn't you work really hard
and you're just as likely to strike out
as you are to strike it rich tell me
about it
my best friend invested all this money
in starting a company
he ended up losing his shirt right
we all know people like that one final
point about the position
as you know this is a large corporation
are you sure you wouldn't be happier at
a startup
startups are exciting but at this point
in my life i'm looking for stability
over excitement
i've got four kids at home and they like
to eat
i hear what you're saying we could use
somebody around here who thinks like an
entrepreneur
if you're someone who can take the ball
and run with it you'd be a great
addition
