And it makes senses for our international meetings to be held at airports . It is 37  principally through the improvement  in  airport  hotels  that  has  enabled  this 38  development to take place .  Today these mini-conference centers provide services are 39  designed for business travelers , look like a quick check-in and round-the-clock restaurants, 40  so they can get to work as quickly as possible  .  They are also less expensive place 41  than their city center counterparts.  Not  long  years  ago,  airports  hotels  were 42  uncomfortable ,  unattractive and inconvenient for as far as the business traveler was 43  concerned .  Yet now that there is strong interest ,  as travelers become aware of the 44  new facilities . Demand for small meeting rooms is huge , usually for interview or one- 45  to-one meetings , where executives fly in and out of the same day.  The age of the   airport is upon us .

PERSONAL  ASSISTANT  OF  THE  YEAR

0           Anne-Marie Garrard was shocked when it was announced that she had won the

00        Personal Assistant of the Year award . “The other candidates seemed me

34        to be very strong , and I have to say I found that the selection procedure really

35        hard.” she says. “I don’t think I had any of chance of winning. When I heard my

36        name , my legs were so weak I could only hardly stand up .”she laughs. So

37        how is “the best” personal assistant chosen from a group of so extremely good

38        and very different from individuals ? The final decision was reached after

39        day-long session of  tests , interviews and exercises . Garrard believes of

40        the skills she uses in her job helped her how to perform well. For instance ,although

41        most of her work is for her company’s Managing Director , she works for six bosses

42        in all , so she always tried out to be prepared for anything that might happen.

43        As for the future , her firm has close up for its summer break ; as soon as

44        they will open again , there is a pay rise waiting for her . But Garrard is

45        going to be relax . She says , “There’s always room for personal development.

You must keep trying to improve.

CHECKOUT      OPERATORS

 0   Supermarket checkout operators sit at electronic tills and fill in the prices of the

 00  customer’s goods . This is now done by “scanning”, pass each such item over

 34  a device that reads the bar-code on it and automatically registers it down in the

 35  till . They may weigh some products , such as for fruit , on scales near the

 36  till . When all the goods will have been scanned ,the till provides a total and the

 37  operators take payment in the cash , by cheque or by credit or debit card , and

 38  give a till receipt and any more change required . They provide bags , often

 39  help to pack purchase , and change paper till rolls as being necessary

 40  They also make it sure they have enough change , credit card forms ,and carrier

 41  bags . Operators ring a bell or buzzer to summon for a supervisor to help

 42  with problems , and put notes and cheques into bags for periodic collection .

 43  They enter into their personal details in the till , so that their performance can be

 44  analyzed later . The system offers supermarkets an efficient way of handling with a

 45  large number of customers purchasing many products and helps to keep checkout

     queues to a minimum .
