ABSTRACT
George is a caretaker. After having tried various kinds of work, he has —nally found a job he enjoys. He started work 25 years ago in a slaughterhouse, but had to leave his job as a meat-dresser when his arms ached so much that he could not pursue his favourite hobby-darts. Since then he has worked under the pressure of piece work on building sites, where the work always seems to be behind schedule, as a truck driver spending long nights on the road, and sitting the whole days in front of a computer at a call centre selling mobile phone contracts.
