Topic #4 Jobs Can Be Attractive And Not Attractive. What Qualities Make Them Such? 

Modern life is full of changes, it is really diverse and exciting. With changes in technologies, new jobs are appearing day by day. Some jobs didn't exist, say, some twenty years ago, while others have already gone due to the arrival of high technologies. The invention of the computer was a technological breakthrough which allowed people to change their working and lifestyle. The job of a typist, for example, that was necessary but very backbreaking and monotonous, has been completely forgotten. A secretary is required to have computer skills instead of typewriting skills. Still, I don't think the job of a secretary is really attractive as it is boring and not respected by others. Nowadays there is a number of prestigious jobs which are respected and well-paid. Among them are the job of a computer programmer and the job of a fashion model. I think a computer programmer can be popular and well-paid because computers have become the necessary part of people's life one can't do without a computer or some other smart gadget both at work and in their leisure hours. And when something is wrong with our gadget, we all need a computer programmer's help. The job of a fashion model is exciting, it attracts hundreds of young girls and men. Though it is not easy to keep to a diet to be in good shape, girls and young men try hard to be successful. Walking on a catwalk is hard but it really pays.  Among the most unattractive jobs are the job of a dustman or a cleaner, a garbage collector and a loader. All of these are unskilled and low-paid. I am sure those who work as dustmen or cleaners must regret being lazy and not studying hard in their young years.  However, they say, "It's not the job that matters but the way one does it". I hope the job I will choose will not just interest me but also be prestigious and well-paid.
