In questa puntata vediamo la storia della nutella, la crema spalmabile più famosa d'Italia. 
Ecco parte del testo:

La Nutella nasce nelle colline delle Langhe, in Piemonte, dove c'è l'ingrediente principale: la nocciola.  La Nutella piace a tutti, bambini, ragazzi e adulti. Inoltre si mangia in ogni momento della giornata: al mattino a colazione, al pomeriggio a merenda e alla sera come dolce.  Qual è il motivo del suo grande successo?

A quel tempo è molto difficile trovare il cacao, ma il pasticcere Pietro Ferrero, nel suo laboratorio di dolci, riesce a trasformare questo problema in una grande opportunità. Pietro inventa una pasta dolce con poco cacao, zucchero e nocciole, raccolte in abbondanza in queste terre. Nel 1946 nasce l'antenato della Nutella: il Giandujot. Ha la forma di un panetto1 avvolto dalla carta stagnola, è solido e può essere tagliato a fette da mettere sul pane. Pietro lo chiama il "dolce degli umili", cioè il dolce di quelle persone modeste come operai, muratori, contadini, che nell'ora della colazione possono comprarlo a basso costo e mangiarlo in mezzo a due fette di pane.

Decreased Productivity: Employees who are not adequately trained may struggle to complete tasks efficiently, leading to lower productivity and missed deadlines.

Increased Errors and Mistakes: Insufficient training can result in errors and mistakes that can negatively impact quality, customer satisfaction, and the organization's reputation.

Lower Morale and Engagement: Employees who feel underprepared may experience frustration and decreased job satisfaction, leading to higher turnover rates and lower employee engagement.

Slower Onboarding: New hires may take longer to become productive if they lack adequate training, which can increase costs and reduce efficiency.

Addressing the Training Gap

To mitigate the negative consequences of insufficient training, organizations must prioritize ongoing learning and development initiatives. This includes:

Needs Assessments: Regularly conducting comprehensive assessments to identify training gaps and ensure that training programs are targeted and relevant.
Tailored Training Programs: Developing customized training programs that address specific needs and learning styles, leveraging a variety of delivery methods such as online courses, workshops, and in-person training.
Continuous Learning: Encouraging employees to participate in ongoing learning and development opportunities, such as online courses, conferences, and professional certifications.
Mentorship and Coaching: Pairing employees with experienced mentors or coaches to provide guidance, support, and opportunities for skill development.
Performance Reviews: Using performance reviews to identify training needs, provide feedback, and recognize employee achievements.

みなさんこんにちは。ミッチです。ご視聴どうもありがとうございます。

ところで、みなさん、この、私のレコーディングルームなんですけど、実はこのレコーディングルームは物置、つまりガレージなんですね。この白いビニールのカーテンの向こう側には、自転車、スケートボード、サッカーボール、マットレス、ガラクタなどがたくさん置いてあります。壁もこんなに薄いんです。この動画を撮影している現在は夏なんですが、『夏はこの部屋の中は暑くて、脳みそが溶けそうです。』で、冬になると『寒くて、手足が凍りそうです。』壁が薄いので、雨が降ると、『雨の音がうるさくて、鼓膜が破れそうです。』

すみません、『鼓膜が破れそうです』はちょっと大袈裟でした。でも、本当に雨が降ると、この部屋の中はとてもうるさいんです。さて、それは置いておいて、今日のターゲット表現は先ほどあった『暑くて、脳みそが溶けそうです。』、『寒くて、手足が凍りそうです。』、『うるさくて、鼓膜が破れそうです。』と言う文の、『い形容詞→(語幹)くて』と言う形と動詞の『OOます→OOそうです』と言う形をマスターして行ってみましょう！

今日の表現もレベルが高いです。みなさんが日本語を話すときに、今日の表現を使うと、みなさんの日本語を聞いた人たちは、みんな『おおお！』っとなりますよ！では行ってみましょう！

まず、
『い形容詞→(語幹)くて』と言う形を使うと、
スペイン語で言うと、"es tan + adjectivo que"
英語で言うと、"it is so + adjective + that"
の様な表現が日本語でできます。

例えば、
『暑い』→『暑くて』
『寒い』→『寒くて』
『うるさい』→『うるさくて』


そして、動詞の
『OOます→OOそうです』と言う形にします。すると、
スペイン語で言うと、"estoy a punto de hacer algo"
英語で言うと、"I'm about to do something"
の様な表現が日本語でできます。

例えば、
『溶ける』→『溶けます』→『溶けそうです。』
『凍る』→『凍ります』→『凍りそうです。』
『破れる』→『破れます』→『破れそうです。』
