Chairman:Good evening, Ladies and Gentlemen. Welcome to What’s My Job? Here’s our first competitor. We’ve got three famous people here — Professor Moore, the scientist — Jessica Gale, the film star — and Ken Carson, the pop singer. They are going to ask the questions. First, Professor Moore… Professor: Hmm… Do you work outside? Competitor: No, I don’t. Professor: Do you wear a uniform? Competitor: No, I don’t. Professor: I see. Do you work in an office? Competitor: No, I don’t. Chairman: Next… Jessica Gale. Jessica: Oh… Is your job important? Competitor: Yes, it is. Jessica: Do you get a big salary? Competitor: Yes, I do. Jessica: Have you got any special diplomas? Competitor: Yes, I have. Chairman: Thank you, Jessica… and now Ken Carson. Ken: Hello. Do you work with your hands? Competitor: Yes, I do. Ken: Do you work at weekends? Competitor: No, I don’t. Ken: Do you travel? Competitor: No, I don’t. Chairman: That’s the ninth question! Now you can ask one last question. Jessica: Ha… Are you a doctor? Competitor: No, I’m not… I’m a dentist.
