John got ahead anybody in the company. He was hired as assistant to Jane who was a construction director. John had never worked in a construction company before. His job was very demanding. Every day he was responsible for getting coffee and breakfast for her. He had to set up many appointments a day. His boss required every phone call to be picked up. Sometimes he did not even have time to go to restroom. After a few months, he knew the environment of the company and his work. He made his work more efficiently than the assistant he who was replaced by him.

 

 

Are they correct?

 

Thank you

Hi,

John got ahead of everybody in the company. He was hired as assistant to Jane, who was a construction director. He had never worked in a construction company before. His job was very demanding. Every day he was responsible for getting coffee and breakfast for her, he had to set up many appointments, and he had to answer very phone call. Sometimes he did not even have time to go to the restroom. After a few months, he had a good understanding of the company and of his work, and he was more efficient than the person he had replaced.

Nest wishes, Clive
