 Other Bad Jobs

Todd: So, have you had any other jobs you didn't like?
Monica: Well, I trained to be a chef (повар) when I left school, and I've had a lot of jobs actually over the years in different restaurants, and some of them I didn't like at all.
Todd: What was it about the job you didn't like?
Monica: I didn't like the people I was working with a lot of the time, so I worked with some very aggressive chefs, and some people who weren't very good at communicating their ideas to me, I felt, and so I found some jobs difficult.

Todd: Right, yeah.
Monica: not a lot of fun.
Todd: Yeah, that would be no fun at all. I think on of the worst jobs I ever had was a part-time job (частичная занятость), and it was only one night only, and it was on Valentines Day, and I had to walk around and try to sell roses to people on Valentine's Day (День всех влюблённых), and I was like sixteen years old, and I couldn't get anybody to buy the roses, and I would go up and every one thought I was really cheesy (глупый, смешной) for approaching them to try and buy a rose, but the person who hired (нанимать) me said I had to get rid of (избавиться, освободиться) all the roses by the end of the night, so it was just a miserable (несчастный, жалкий), miserable night, and I think I got most of them sold, and at the end of the night, I just paid the eight bucks or whatever out of my own pocket and just paid for it myself

Monica: So tell me, did you have more luck selling the flowers to guys or two women?
Todd: Well, definitely only the guys bought the roses. The women didn't, but was really awkward (неловко) is you would go up and try to sell the rose, and the guy didn't want to buy the rose, and then the woman doesn't want you there because it makes the guy look awkward, so it was a bad day.
Monica: So was it easier approaching guys by themselves?
Todd: A little bit. Sometimes guys walking down the street would see up and they would be thankful, cause they would think, " Oh, I get a rose" you know, like "I almost forgot". Actually it was really hard to sell them and it was just a very long night.
