 In this episode, we are going to look at the current trade talks between China and the USA taking place in Switzerland. The trade talks appear to be going well, however, there is no deal reached at this time. So, will a deal be reached? That is the big question.

You've been working for weeks on a project and finally get it finished, but someone else takes the credit — what could be more annoying?

Nothing, according to a new workplace survey! It found that people who steal your credit are the most annoying colleagues to work with.

Jobs site Kickresume asked almost 2,900 people around the world about the things that annoy them at work, and they had a lot to talk about!

Around 85% of people said they've worked with an annoying person.

And annoying colleagues don't just make people roll their eyes — they actually affect productivity too. In fact, almost six out of 10 people said that having annoying colleagues has a big effect on their productivity.

Thirty percent of people have a problem with colleagues who complain too much, while the same number get annoyed by those who don't respect personal space — they always stand a little too close!

Colleagues who steal other people's food from the fridge are also a source of annoyance.

Another common annoyance is bosses who micromanage — watching every move you make.

So what can we do about annoying behavior at work?

Many people say they'd like to talk to the person about it, but most don't have the courage.

Instead, 32% of people said they just try to stay away from the person who is annoying them. But that's not always easy, especially if they're stealing your credit — or your lunch!

Experts suggest speaking to a manager about workplace problems.

But here's a question: how do you know if you're not one of the people annoying your colleagues yourself?

Annoying Colleagues Affect Productivity, Say Workers

We live in a world of rules. We see them everywhere when we travel by plane. No liquids! Wait here! Turn off your phones!

But what about those unspoken rules — the ones that aren't written down and no one is exactly sure about.

A travel expert from the US has been explaining her unspoken rules for the airplane journey.

TV host Samantha Brown shared her rules with CNN, including one that makes the middle seat feel a little more comfortable.

According to Brown, if you find yourself in one of the middle seats on a plane, you should get both of the armrests to yourself.

Sitting in the middle isn't always very popular and so Brown says these passengers should get "anything they want."

That means even if the people on the outside begin using those armrests, the person in the middle has the right to "slowly push them off!"

Brown says she likes the aisle seat best because she feels she has more space.

She added that people sitting by the window should have control of the window blind — whether it's up or down. And the others don't have the right to decide!

One thing that can make some passengers angry is people in front putting their seats back.

Brown has a rule for this — if the journey takes less than three hours, she doesn't put her seat back, but she does if it's a longer trip.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日は語学学習のアプリについて話します。

みなさんは語学学習をどうやっていますか？
いろんな方法があると思います。

僕は、英語の勉強は基本的にitalkiでスピーキングの練習をします。それから、YouTubeでリスニングや、grammar、文法、vocabulary、語彙などを勉強します。

最近はあいてる時間を使って、新しい言語も勉強をはじめました。でもこれは、テキストを使わずに勉強しています。どうやっているかというと、アプリだけで勉強しています。Duolingo というアプリを使っています。

これは、クイズをしながら、言語学習をするようなアプリです。僕はただ見て、聞いて、書いて覚えるよりも、クイズのような形で、あってた！間違ってた！というのがわかる方が覚えやすいです。なので、このアプリを使っています。

特にはじめての言語は、こういうゲーム感覚で勉強しはじめるのが僕にはあっています。

もちろん、話せるようになるのはまだまだ先ですが、発音や語彙や文法を覚えていっている実感はあります。

毎日、少しずつですが、50日を超えました。毎日続けていると、それを止めたくないので、少しだけでもやろう！という気になりますね。

みなさんは、新しい言語を勉強する時、どんな風にはじめますか？ぜひオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回も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！
