A Day in the Life…

 Reading

Robert Stanway works for an advertising company.

Read about Robert’s day, and fill in the table below.

I usually get up very early - at about 6 o’clock. I have breakfast with

my wife, and then leave for work at 7:15. I go to work by train, and
get to the office just before nine.

When I arrive at the office, I always check my email. I get a lot of

messages from our overseas offices. Then I usually have a meeting
with my team from 11 to 12 o’clock.

I have lunch in the office cafeteria at 12. The food isn’t very good, but it’s cheap.
After lunch I sometimes meet clients, or write reports.

I usually finish work at about 6 o’clock, although I occasionally work overtime. I get
home about an hour later, and have dinner with my family.

In the evening, I help my children with their homework, and watch television with my
wife.
