Welcome into our IELTS speaking Part three.
We are talking about energetic people in general, about energy, physical activity.
Rory, do you think people need more energy nowadays?
I mean, can you ever have enough of it?
There never seems enough time in the day and the fuel to get everything done that needs doing.
Admittedly though, that might be a sign.
We all need to slow down and learn to manage our time better rather than pack more into our lives.
What kinds of jobs require more physical energy?
I suppose anything to do with manual labor, like construction work.
You have to move around a lot in such roles, so it makes sense that you need more energy.
Personal trainers
and anything connected to exercise would also likely require a great deal of effort just to keep
up with multiple sessions with clients too.
Should jobs that require physical work be more highly paid?
Well, people in those jobs might certainly make that case, but I don't think that's how the job market works.
You just get paid in relation to how much value you bring to the table.
And value is determined by all kinds of factors, not just the physical labor you do.
If it was just that.
That seems a bit simplistic.
