OFFICIAL17 Why does the man go to see the woman?

[00:00.00]Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a food service manager.
[00:06.64]MALE STUDENT: Excuse me, Mrs. Hanson? [00:11.57]My name's John, uh, John Grant. [00:14.18]I work as a waiter in the campus dining hall, in the faculty dining room.
[00:18.39]FEMALE MANAGER: What can I do for you, John?[00:20.06]MALE STUDENT: Well, I work weeknights, except, uh, for Friday. [00:23.41]I was, uh, wondering if I could, uh, switch from working the dinner service to working at lunch.
[00:29.73]FEMALE MANAGER: That's gonna be a problem. [00:31.24]I’m afraid we don't have any openings at lunchtime. [00:34.43]A lot of students want to work then, so it's really rare for us to have an open spot at that time of day.[00:39.39]MALE STUDENT: Oh . . . You see, I've joined this group . . . the, uh, university jazz band... and the band's practice time's right around dinnertime. [00:47.99]You know, it's so hard to get into this group—I must've auditioned like ten times since I’ve been at the school—so I'm... [00:54.94]Anyway, soI was really hoping to have the dinner hour free so I can go to practice.[01:00.64]FEMALE MANAGER: Well, we do have other open times—like breakfast.[01:04.86]MALE STUDENT: That won't work... I’m sorry, [01:07.32]I mean that I can't work that early—[01:09.58]I have this really important music class I gotta take and it's, like, first thing in the morning.[01:14.68]FEMALE MANAGER: Well... if you don’t mind working in the kitchen, we’ve got some pretty flexible hours for students doing food prep work. Anything from early morning to late afternoon.[01:25.68]MALE STUDENT: What’s, uh, prep work?
[01:27.93]FEMALE MANAGER: You prepare food for the cooks—[01:29.84]you know, like cutting up vegetables for soup or cleaning greens for salads.[01:34.54]MALE STUDENT: Oh . . . That doesn't sound . . . I mean, [01:38.28]being a waiter, I get to see a lot of the professors, like, in a different light. We joke around a little, you know... [01:45.14]In the classroom they always have to be pretty formal, but...
[01:48.28]FEMALE MANAGER: Well, the money's no different, since we pay students the same amount for any of the jobs here in food service—so it’s up to you.
[01:55.07]MALE STUDENT: Oh, man, I always thought that sacrificing for my art—well, that'd mean working long hours as a musician... for, like, no money. [02:04.62]I didn’t think it'd mean peeling carrots...
[02:07.82]FEMALE MANAGER: Let me see... I’m offering you something that has the hours you want—it’s right here on campus—and you make as much money as you did being a waiter. Quite a sacrifice.
[02:19.34]MALE STUDENT: I’m sorry. I know you're just tryin' to help. [02:22.60]I guess, uh, I guess I should look into the food prep job.[02:26.47]FEMALE MANAGER: OK then. I'll tell the kitchen manager that you'll stop by tomorrow to talk about the job and schedule your hours. [02:33.63]And, I’ll let the dining hall manager know that he needs to find a new waiter for the evening.
[02:38.33]MALE STUDENT:  Oh . . . OK. I guess that's it. [02:41.98]Uh, thanks, Mrs. Hanson.
