3. IDIOM

I started painting about two years ago, after my divorce. I wanted to forget about my previous life. There was no rush, so I did about two or three hours every evening, just to relax and pass some time – I used to come home from work, tired, but after painting for a few hours, I felt totally refreshed. Last week, some colleagues dropped in on me and saw my paintings. Some of them complimented me on them, so I gave them away without thinking any more of it. Yesterday, one of my colleagues introduced me to an art agent, who offered me the opportunity to display my paintings in his gallery. I was so thrilled, I hadn’t been able to calm down until now. I think that «every cloud has a silver lining’.

· EVERY CLOUD HAS A SILVER LINING / нет худа без добра; будет и на нашей улице праздник

4. TEXTS

? STRENUOUS WORK

My boyfriend works as a programmer in a global software company. I envy him since he doesn’t have to clock on

and clock off

when he leaves work, unlike me in the hospital. He can stay at home and work in bed for weeks without seeing his colleagues and management at all! They have no machine that shows he has worked an extra-long shift like me and that allows me to take time off

at a later date. He has no shifts at all. I was planning to take a holiday in July this year, but had to bring it forward

as I was told July was going to be a very busy time for our hospital. I love my work, but my hospital is understaffed, and I hate to always be pressed for

time. I find it almost impossible to find the time to pay more attention to the patients and talk to them a little bit longer than I do now, even though I feel that is an essential part of my job. Of course, I can chat for a few minutes, but then I have to press on

with my other duties. Our hospital hires many nurses from overseas. However, when their work permits run out

after three years, they have to leave and the management has to fill staff vacancies

again. Many nurses like me who are permanent staff

for five or ten years burn themselves out

and can’t stand it any more. The strenuous work quickly wears them out

and they quit, completely exhausted and devastated after five or seven years.
