Alfred Bloggs worked as a dustman but was embarrassed to tell his wife, so he told her he worked for the corporation. Each day he would leave home dressed in a suit and change into overalls for his job. After work, he would change back into his suit before returning home. He did this for over two years while his coworkers kept his secret. Alfred will now work as a junior clerk, earning half as much but feeling his new status is worth it since he can wear a suit all day and be called "Mr. Bloggs" instead of "Alf".

4. The Story
The Double Life of Alfred Bloggs
These days, people who do manual work often receive far more money than clerks who work in
offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as 'white collar workers' for the simple
reason that they usually wear a collar and a tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many
people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of becoming white collar workers. This
can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman for the
Ellesmere Corporation.
When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. He
simply told her that he worked for the Corpora-tion. Every morning, he left home dressed in a fine black
suit. He then changed into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at
night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for over two years and his fellow
dustmen kept his secret.
Alf's wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just
found another job. He will soon be working in an office as a junior clerk. He will be earning only half as
much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he
will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr Bloggs', not 'Alf'.
