Episódio 02 - Como foi trabalhar no Censo

... 
Как-то на чердаке мы нашли деревянную чёрную шкатулку. На крышке её медными буквами была выложена английская надпись: «Эдинбург. Шотландия. Делал мастер Гальвестон».
Шкатулку принесли в комнаты, осторожно вытерли с неё пыль и открыли крышку. Внутри были медные валики с тонкими стальными шипами. Около каждого валика сидела на бронзовом рычажке медная стрекоза, бабочка или жук.

Это была музыкальная шкатулка. Мы завели её, но она не играла. Напрасно мы нажимали на спинки жуков, мух и стрекоз – шкатулка была испорчена.

За вечерним чаем мы заговорили о таинственном мастере Гальвестоне. Все сошлись на том, что это был весёлый пожилой шотландец в клетчатом жилете и кожаном фартуке. Во время работы, обтачивая в тисках медные валики, он, наверное, насвистывал песенку о почтальоне, чей рог поёт в туманных долинах, и девушке, собирающей хворост в горах. Как все хорошие мастера, он разговаривал с теми вещами, которые делал, и рассказывал им их будущую жизнь. Но, конечно, он никак не мог догадаться, что эта чёрная шкатулка попадёт из-под бледного шотландского неба в пустынные леса за Окой, в деревню, где только одни петухи поют, как в Шотландии, а всё остальное совсем не похоже на эту далёкую северную страну.

Learn Chinese and Have Fun!

嫉妒 VS 羡慕：All Envy?

Company culture matters. A common reason people are motivated to switch jobs is a desire for a different company culture. When employees fit into the culture of a company, they not only feel more comfortable, like they are at their home away from home, but they are happier, more engaged, and more productive. 

In this episode, I walk you through questions to identify the type of culture you want in a company. You'll hear some of the most memorable and shocking answers I've heard from clients as we've talked about company culture. Then, I share steps that you can take to find companies with attractive cultures. Finally, I share what to do during a job interview to detect the culture of the company. You'll learn what to look for and questions to ask your interviewers. The episode concludes with definitions for nine idioms and phrases for English language learners.
