	<passage mp3="AUDIO_REPOS/2429.mp3" title="Strong and Weak Points"><![CDATA[<div id="passage"><p><strong>Simon:</strong> Yeah, I got a job interview coming
  up and I know they're gonna ask me about
  what are your strong points and your weak
points. You know.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> Yeah, that's tough because like I
know my strong points and my weak points.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> Yeah. Well, let's talk about that actually, personality wise.
  Forget about the job interview. Let's talk about what do you think,
what are your strong points as a person?</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> Ah, let's see. Well, I think the biggest one is I'm pretty
  generous. Like I really don't care about money, so I'll give my
  friends money or things that I have, cause I just don't care about
  that. So that's probably my strong point. My weak points are I am
  very late all the time. I'm late to work. I'm late to meet my friends.
  I'm late when I have appointments and I am always late, so that is
  probably my number one bad point and sometimes I'm a little
selfish. I want things my way and only my way.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> So it's.. do you use that expression,  &amp; quot;It's my way or the
highway &amp; quot;?</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> I would never say that but that's maybe how I think
sometimes.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> That's how you feel inside, yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> How about you? What are your strong points and your
weak points?</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> Well, one of my weak points I can say, much like you was
  being late but since you know, since I've has a long term
  girlfriend, she's made sure that that part of me has changed but I
  think one of my weak points is that I'm mentally disorganized.
  I'm all over the place all the time so that sometimes makes me
  forget things like my keys or you know, where I put an important
piece of paper or something like that.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> You know sometimes I wonder because I'm a teacher, that
  maybe more people are that way today because we have so
  much input, so much stimulus from TV, from the internet, from
  movies, from radio that we are not as mentally organized as
people maybe 50 years ago.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> Yeah, that quite.. that could be possibly true but most of
  my close friends you know, say that I'm more disorganized in that
  way or more chaotic than most people so I think I'm a special
  case. You know, I lost my wallet about four or five times in the
past year so.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> That's pretty bad. What's your strong point though?</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> Well.. you know, that's putting me on the spot. That's a
  pretty difficult question cause it's difficult to talk about yourself but
  uh, you know I would have to say that I'm friendly and easy-going
and..</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> Yeah, I agree actually.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> And I think I have.. I think I can get along with people
  well, so that's would be my strong point I guess, easy going and
friendly, easy to get along with.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> Well, I agree.</p>
<p><strong>Simon:</strong> Oh, thank you and I agree about you.</p>
<p><strong>Todd:</strong> What? I'm always late.</p>
<p><strong>Simon: </strong>That, too.</p></div>]]>
