Writing Part 1:
At some point in life, every individual must choose his own
career path to make a living. It is a known fact that an
increasing amount of students struggle with choosing their path
in life, but what happens once they decide? Schools prepare
pupils with information about certain subjects, but never about
what jobs consists of. I would like to present a few of my
thoughts regarding a recent discussion in my class about
helping young adults get ready for their careers.

Firstly, what better way to learn something about a job than

talking with current workers. Meetings with workers can give
students the opportunity to ask questions about personal
curiosities regarding the job, like relationships with colleagues.
For example, my school organized a meeting with a few
software developers working at a local business. For the past
year I wanted to become a software developer myself, but after
having the chance to find out about what that precisely means,
I realized that it is not meant for me.

Secondly, another method of familiarizing students with a

career is showing them what their working environment would
look like. No matter how attracted a student can be to a career,
his decision can easily be influenced by the ‘office’ he would
have to sit in. For instance, a person that loves travelling would
not want to choose a job that involves a sedentary life .

Conclusively, schools should worry more about teaching

students how to choose and how to adapt to a career. There are
many ways to educate young adults but giving them even a
slight interaction with how their life could look is probably the
most effective.

Introduction
The aims of this report are to provide an overview of the
conditions of living provided by our building and make
recommendations as how to ensure a safer environment for the
residents.

Stairs and lifts

It has come to my attention that the older residents are not
happy with the stairs or the lifts in the building. Our neighbors
that live at the 8th floor are constantly complaining about how
slow the elevators are, and also about the fact that we recently
welcomed many new residents, and despite that, the number
of elevators has not increased. Stairs, on the other hand, are
too tall and uncomfortable to climb and the railings are starting
to rust.

Outside communal areas

Ten years ago, the residential area benefited from a renovation
which came bundled with new terraces and playgrounds. Since
then, however, neither of those spaces saw any changes. Many
of the chairs at the terraces look outdated or dirty and the
playgrounds are almost unusable, due to not being taken care
of.
