Two months ago, Marcelle used to work full time in an automobile manufacturing firm. "The factory

no luck yet."
Until last week, Dominic used to work full time as a hair-dresser in downtown Cincinnati. "I decided to
quit my job, because I want to move to New York City."
Until last month, Francine worked part time at a ski resort. "Well, it is summer now, and so the resort is
closed. I will apply again in the winter when the snow is back. I am not interested in working until then."
Two months ago, Beauvoir had been working full time as a secretary. "I was a good typist, but I don't
