A. One man's career

When Simon started work, he was at the very bottom of the career ladder [2]. He had quite a dead-end job [3] doing run-of-the-mill [4] tasks. He stayed there for a couple of years, but then decided he had to get out of a rut [5]. He pulled out all the stops [6] and managed to persuade his manager that he should be given more responsibility. The deputy manager got the sack [7] for incompetence and Simon stepped into his shoes [8]. For several months he was rushed off his feet [9] and he had his work cut out [10] to keep on top of things. But he was soon recognised as an up-and-coming [11] young businessman and he was headhunted [12] by a rival company forone of their top jobs. Simon had climbed to the top of the career ladder [13].
