Karli's
Office
My
friend Karli is an accountant. He works in the centre
of Vienna. He has a very nice office with a wonderful view
of St. Stephen's cathedral.
Karli
has a very big desk, a big comfortable leather
chair, a computer, a very expensive Italian desk-lamp,
and a filing cabinet.
Maria,
Karli's assistant, has a very small desk, a plastic chair, a
computer, two filing cabinets, a cheap Chinese
desk lamp and a very big plant in her office.
Karli
and Maria are always too busy for
lunch. And, they never have time to look out of the window!
Karli
and Maria. Two very nice people who work in Vienna,
