Work and jobs

A)

What do you do?

To find out what someone's job is you say «What do you do?» Here, Kerstin talks about her job:

I work for a large European car maker. I work on car design. In fact, I run the design department and I manage a team of designers: 20 people work under me. It's very interesting. One of my main responsibilities is to make sure that new model designs are finished on time. I'm also in charge of design budgets.

 

I deal with a lot of different people in the company. I'm responsible for co-ordination between design and production: I work with managers at our manufacturing plants.

 

Note:

in charge of } + + noun
responsible for verb + -ing

responsibility + infinitive or -ing

One of my responsibilities is to make sure...

One of my responsibilities is making sure...

 

B)

Word combinations with 'work'

If you work or have work, you have a job. But you don't say that someone has a work. Work is also the place where you do your job.

 

Here are some phrases with 'work':

- Hi, I'm Frank. I work in a bank in New York City. I leave for work at 7.30 every morning.

- I go to work by train and subway.

- I get to / arrive at work at about nine.

- I'm usually at work till six.

- Luckily, I don't get ill very much so I'm not often off work.

 

The economy is growing fast and more people are in work than ever before. The percentage of people out of work has fallen to its lowest level for 30 years.

You don't say, for example, I'm at the work or I'm going to the work.

 

С)

Types of job and types of work

A full-time job is for the whole of the normal working week; a part-time job is for less time than that.

You say that someone works full-time or part-time.

A permanent job does not finish after a fixed period; a temporary job finishes after a fixed period. You talk about temporary work and permanent work.

OVER TO YOU
If you work … If you don't work…
What do you do? What are you in charge of? What are your responsibilities? What time do you leave for work? How long does it take you to get to work? What time do you arrive at work? Do you take a lot of time off work? What sort of job would you like to do? What routine would you like to have?
