地道美語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力播客:Moonlighting兼職

Robert: You look exhausted . You must have been out late last night having fun.
Muriel: I wish . I’ve actually started moonlighting . I’ve decided to go back to school and need the extra money to make ends meet .
Robert: Good for you . That’s great. Where are you moonlighting?
Muriel: I’m working at the university library. At that time of night , it’s pretty dead . When there are no students around , I can use the time to study. It works out pretty well, except for the hours.
Robert: Oh, yeah? What are they?
Muriel: My work schedule is pretty good, actually. I work three days a week: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. But my hours are 7 to midnight. By the time I get home, I’m dead tired .
Robert: No wonder you look beat . Here, have some more coffee.
Muriel: Thanks. I just hope I don’t fall asleep in the morning meeting.
Robert: It’s okay. No one will notice .
Muriel: Thanks a lot!
Robert: Don’t mention it .
