“Hi, my name is Jenna. What’s yours?” asked Jenna. “My name is Harper.” said Harper. “Nice to meet you, Harper,” said Jenna. “Nice to meet you, too. Why did you become a
computer operator and what do you need to be eligible.” “ I became a computer operator because I loved math in
school you have to know math to do this type of job. You definitely need a high school diploma. You also need
computer skills,” said Jenna.

“Are you in high school?” said Jenna. “Yes, I am. I’m thinking about going to UCLA,” said Harper. “At UCLA, they have computer science. If you want to
become a computer operator, that would be a good college to go to,” said Jenna.

“All this talk about computer operating makes me want to make that my career,” said Harper. “Alright Harper, I’m all done,” said Dad. “ Okay. Nice talking to you Ms. Jenna,” said Harper. “Nice talking to
you, too. See you Next week, Phil,” said Jenna. “See you next week, Jenna,” said Dad.
