Sim 66, part 36 continued
Judith and Francesca entered the gym. "Yes, this place can be expensive but my husband's a member" said Francesca.
"Maybe one day I'll earn enough to get membership here as well" commented Judith, taking in the expensive furnishings and equipment.
They went into the ladies' changing room where Judith changed into her exercise leotard. She'd never been the sporty type and wondered how she would get on here but how difficult could keep fit be, she wondered. Francesca showed her to the treadmills and showed her how to operate one.
"So, do you think you'll stick with the hospital?" asked Francesca.
"I'm determined to. It's what I've always wanted to do all my life" replied Judith. "So what's the key to winning over Murakami?"
"Hard work and a can-do attitude" said Francesca. "But I think you did all the right things today, even if they didn't seem like much"

I can't help but notice you've set this treadmill to 2 hours
Judith kept running on the treadmill but noticed that two of her neighbours, John Action and Jeremy Saint, had entered the gym.
"Hey, Judith, what are you doing here?" said Jeremy.
"I might ask you the same question...this place is pretty expensive" she replied.
"I know. But my boss gave me a one off pass as a promotion present. John here got a pass from one of his contacts"
Action turned and smiled. "It was more of a personal contact...if you get my drift. I've been seeing this lady who has friends on the council. It pays to be connected"

That thing has a lot of buttons
Judith got off the treadmill, feeling exhausted. Jeremy turned to her and said "I almost forgot! Today was your first day at the hospital. How did it go?"
Judith paused for a moment. Francesca had gone to the other end of the gym to lift weights and was out of earshot and Judith didn't want to tell Jeremy about her day of delivering food, mopping floors and getting harangued by old ladies.
"Oh it was VERY challenging" she said. "I hit the ground running, so to speak. Never off my feet for a moment with all these tricky cases."
Action stroked his chin. "Really? You made a big impression on your bosses? Normally you have to mop the floors when you're at the bottom rung."
