3. 0:04Hi.
4. 0:05I'm Juan. I'm a software engineer and I
5. 0:07want to tell you about how my family and
6. 0:09I get to work and school. Usually, I
7. 0:12work from home, but once a week I go to
8. 0:14the office.
9. 0:15I usually go on Wednesdays. On
10. 0:17Wednesdays, I wake up early at 6:00.
11. 0:20Then I get dressed and leave home at a
12. 0:22quarter to 7:00. My commute takes about
13. 0:241 hour because of traffic, so I get to
14. 0:26work at 8:00.
15. 0:28I have lunch at half past 12:00. I
16. 0:30usually walk to a restaurant. I leave
17. 0:33the restaurant at a quarter past 1:00
18. 0:35and return to work at half past 1:00. I
19. 0:37leave work at 5:00 and drive home. I get
20. 0:40home around 6:00. Then I ride my bicycle
21. 0:43in the park. I also have three kids. My
22. 0:46kids take the bus to school.
23. 0:48They leave home at half past 6:00 and
24. 0:50get home at a quarter past 4:00.
25. 0:52My wife takes the train to work. She
26. 0:55leaves home at 5:00 and gets home at
27. 0:57half past 3:00. On the weekends, I
