TRACK 01
Presenter: Welcome back to our programme exploring the future of work. We asked 
four people their thoughts on their careers and where they saw them in the future. Our 
first speaker is Julie Robinson, a lawyer.
Julie: A career in law is stable because laws don't tend to change fast. It's challenging 
and potentially well-paid if you get a high-powered job in a top law firm. However, I 
believe there's been a sharp drop in law graduates recently because it's so expensive to 
study law at university for six years. Some law firms are offering apprenticeships so

whole, being a lawyer can be an extremely rewarding and lucrative career.
Presenter: Our second speaker is Geoffrey Smith, a dentist.
Geoffrey: My dental practice is always busy, and I can't see that changing in the future.

will probably continue to make my job easier. There have been great advances in the 
medication we use to manage pain, so my patients can relax a bit more. I know people 
hate coming to see me! I don't blame them, but I don't think they'd be any happier if I 
was replaced by a robot.
Presenter: Our third speaker is Angie Walters, a shop assistant.
Angie: The supermarket where I work is always busy, so it's hard to believe my job is 
going to disappear. If you ask me, people want to see what they're buying – I do! But 
the experts say that there will be a gradual decline in supermarket sales, and so my job 
isn't secure. I'd hate to lose my job because I think I've got great interpersonal skills and 
I'm quite good at handling difficult customers. Some people think my job's monotonous,
