Construction Worker Sues Company (Part 1)
Objective: Building up the news. Since you don’t have any previous background,
you will have to rely on your intuition, creativity as well as your imagination.
Main Fact: A
construction worker has sued a company.
Tips: The guys above are the main
characters. One is the worker. The other is the construction company owner. Who’s
who?
Character A asked Character B to do something. Character
B accepted reluctantly for a while. Then he changed his mind.
Imagine
what the case is about: who did what, when, where, and why.
Mind the gap
The
salaries of some London Tube drivers have broken the £100,000 barrier - more
than most airline pilots – even though their jobs are getting easier as many only
have to open and close the doors.
The figures,
which include overtime, bonuses and employer pension contributions, show the
highest paid driver in 2018 received £103,374 - 69% more than in 2012 - while
nine were paid upwards of £100,000.
The role of
a Tube driver is getting easier, requiring less human input. However, the
basic salary of an average Tube driver is now double that of a London nurse. The
total remuneration of most drivers is between £60,000 and £70,000, according to
figures released by Transport for London. Some 900 - mainly part-timers -
received less than £60,000.
They also
get a free annual travel pass, eight and a half weeks of paid holiday and full
pensions at 60. Those retiring at 50 get a reduced pension.
Airline pilots
serving as first officers receive between £36,000 to £48,000, while captains on
medium-sized airlines start on between £57,000 and £78,000. Salaries at major
carriers can rise above £140,000.
What Tube drivers take away each year
Highest
paid driver - £103,374.

others - more than £100,000.
Around

Around

Most
drivers (more than 3,000) - between £60,000 and £70,000.
