W: I suppose it comes with the job. It pays to be nice to people, don't you think? M: I suppose it does. That's what my mother said to me anyway. Oh, wait. Wait a second. Oh, no. I can't believe this! W: What's wrong? M: I think I left my wallet somewhere. W: It's gotta be around here. Maybe on the floor? M: No. It's not there. I don't know where it could be. Any chance you can be nice and give me that beer for free? W: No chance of that happening. If no one's paying, I'm not so nice. What was said before this conversation?

output: W: I'm afraid we are going to miss the 3-o'clock train.
Please answer this: W: It certainly is. It was a great report. It indicates that the job market, broadly speaking, has turned the corner after 3 very long, lean years. I think we are going to see improvement. It's not only the March gain. It was gain in January and February. They were both revised higher, and moreover, the job gains were very broadly-based across many industries. It was a very positive report. M: What do you see in the numbers? Who's getting the new jobs? W: As I mentioned, when we looked at the numbers, "we are seeing employment across the board in all sectors, with one important exception, and that's in manufacturing. Well, we do not have any job loss in manufacturing sector for the first time in 44 months. We did not see pick up in the manufacturing sector, but we saw restaurant and hotel workers being added on. We saw workers in supermarket being added on. Part of that reflects the settlement of the grocery stores strike out California. We saw workers in the health care sector and hospitals being added on. We saw business services adding employees. So in general, with the very important exception of manufacturing, we are seeing job growth across all of these different types of occupations.
