Mr. Marsden is David's boss. He is the editor of the newspaper for which David works.
There are many responsibilities in his job, but he enjoys it very much.
In his wife's opinion, there are too many responsibilities; she never sees him!
She prefers her son's job. He is a bank clerk and is home every day at six.
His job is not as well paid as his father's, but he works less,
and the holidays are better.
In England, twice a year, there is a day's holiday called a "Bank Holiday"
I'll be home late tonight, dear. - Why?
I've got a new article about taxation to prepare.
But you always go to the office early and come home late!
I can't help it. An editor life, you know...
And his wife's life...!
I'll see you tonight, love, good-bye.
