Frank is a pilot for British Airways. He hasn't got a fixed
timetable. Some days he doesn't have to fly, because every time he has a long
flight he has two days
off. Normally on Mondays he flies from London to San Francisco. That's thirteen hours more or less and a big time difference. He sometimes has sleep problems because of the
jet lag. He has to fly back to London on Tuesday, and then he can spend two days with his family. He likes taking his children to school and having a normal life. After school he drives to the gym and exercises for an hour and a half. It's important for pilots to
be fit, and have a
healthy life. They usually have body tests. So they don't usually drink alcohol or take drugs. It's a hard job; but the salary is high and Frank is happy with his life.
