4 Tips on How to Negotiate a Job Offer

Today we're talking about a phrase that we can use to discuss hobbies, interests, or background, that we share with our colleagues. This phrase is to have things "in common". We also discuss a common mistake that international English speakers make when using this word. I hope you find it useful!

If you're trying to improve the way that you communicate in English at work then feel free to book some of my time, it would be great to meet you. See you soon!

Join me on a short journey to my young life where we will see several common idioms in action that make use of the verb 'to hit'.

A Snapshot From My Childhood

Some people love to brag. They might brag about where they live, the money they make or how great they are at sports.

In fact, some people even brag about how busy or stressed they are.

And it's becoming quite common.

It's called "busy bragging" or "stress bragging" — and people find it just as annoying as any other bragging.

You may have heard it at your workplace, when people tell everyone about how much work they have to do, or say things like: "You have no idea of the stress I'm under."

They might be doing this to show others that they're important or working hard.

However, a study from the US found that the colleagues of stress braggers find those people less likable and less competent because of their bragging.

And colleagues were found to be less likely to help stress braggers.

The study also found that colleagues may even begin to feel stress themselves because of the effect of people stress bragging.

Study author Jessica Rodell said: "People are harming themselves by doing this thing they think is going to make them look better to their colleagues."

However, Rodell said sharing workplace stress with others is not a bad thing to do: it's only when people brag about their stress that it causes negative feelings.

"It's not the being stressed part that's a problem," she said. In fact, the study found that if your colleagues think you're stressed, they do think you're more competent.

You just can't brag about it.

'Busy Bragging': The Workplace Habit That Annoys Everyone

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を楽しく勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

ぼくの日常生活の話を聞くことで、日本語のリスニングをよくしたり、新しい言葉を知ってもらえたらいいなと思います。


みなさんお元気でしょうか。
今日もジョージアでPodcastを録っています。

今回は、アルメニア🇦🇲への小旅行についてのポッドキャストです。

実はもうジョージア🇬🇪に帰ってきましたが、
5日間、アルメニアへ行っていました。

その話を何回かのポッドキャストで話したいと思います。

今日はアルメニアへ向かう小さいバスの話。

ジョージアからアルメニアはバスで行けます。
出国、入国審査をするので、全部で6時間ぐらいかかります。

トビリシ駅の前からバスに乗りました。
9:00発のバスに乗りたかったんですけど、なかったので、11:00発のバスに乗ることになりました。

このバスは結構スピードを出します。速い。
そしてちょっと怖い。

1時間半ほど行くと、国境に着きました。
ここではジョージアから出国するため、1度バスを降りて手続きをします。

その後、1度バスに乗ります。
少し進んでまたおります。

次はアルメニアの入国審査です。
パスポートを渡し、チェックされます。

そして無事に入国しました！
バスに乗り込み、また走り出します。

その後、4時間ぐらい走りました。
車の中が排気ガスくさくてちょっと心配だったんですけど、18:00前に無事アルメニアに到着しました。

アルメニアはとても落ち着いた雰囲気で、僕たちはとても気に入りました。

1日目はこんな感じの移動日でした。

ということで、今回は以上です！

最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
