I'm a Bit Fed Up
1--You're not looking very cheerful. What's the
matter with you?
2--Oh, nothing special. I'm just a bit fed up.
1--With the job?
2--With everything, with catching the same train
every morning, sitting in the same office all
day watching the same television programmes...
1--You need a holiday.
2--It wasn't always like this, you know.
1--How do you mean?
2--Well, our great-great-grandfathers had more
fun, didn't they? I mean, they hunted for their
food and grew their own vegetables and did
things for themselves. We do the same sort of job
for years and years. There's no variety in our
lives.
1--You need a holiday. That's what's the matter with
you.
