up-to-date
A journalist is collecting information for an article about Mr. Johnson, a businessman. Oh. I usually get up at about five, and go for a jog before breakfast. We usually have breakfast at around 6: 30. Then I have time to read the papers. Which papers do you read? Well, the Financial Times, the Times and the Independent. I don't exactly read them from cover to cover. I see. After reading, I leave for the office. I' m usually behind my desk by 7:30. The first job of the day is the post. My secretary sorts out those letters which need immediate attention. Then at about nine, I have a daily meeting with my deputy. We run through the agenda for the day. What's a typical day like? Well, there's no such thing as a typical day, but I have regular morning meetings with my finance and sales directors. Of course, I travel a lot, then I keep up-to-date by telephone.
