    People often talk about jobs. But when I tell others what I do for a living,they can hardly believe this job exiyis (存在) . But I'm not joking. I spend my days at work eating chocolate!I taste chocolate to make sure that people can get excellent chocolate from our factory.

    Every week I receive chocolate from our factory. I have to check (经验) it for taste and smell.I also have to taste raw maienals (原材料) we usually use. I spend days choosing the most suitable (合适的) ones to go into the chocolate.

    Just beside my office I have a kitchen. I test and taste chocolate I make there. My kitchen is full of machines. It's wonderful to work there during the day.

    No two days are the same in this job. Sometimes I am in the kitchen. Sometimes I’m out of the country buying the raw materials we need and because I have a young family,that can be difficult. But I love this job. I like to live a different life every day. The question is that many people ask me whether I get bored of chocolate,I’ve never felt I didn't want to eat it. In fact,I’11 often go home and eat some more in the morning!
