She turned on her cell phone the next day to discover she’d been fired from her sales position. ‘We’ve reviewed your sales figures and they’re not really up to the level we need,’ shp manager Ale Barlett wrote in the message. ‘As a result, we will not require your services any more. Thank you for your time with us.’Text A4LOGODon’t call us; we’ll call you!When most people apply for a job they expect to go in for an interview. But not Jenny Jamieson. When a company rang her to arrange an interview they heard her voicemail and she was hired. Jenny came from a singing family and was trained in speech and music. She is now the voice of the company on all its automated messages and call centre systems. ‘I suppose I’m always cheerful and smile a lot and I think people hear that on the phone,’ says Jenny.Text B5LOGOCar Plant workers Win LotteryHarry Lane was one of six employees at a UK car plant who received their £9.5 million winnings from last Saturday night’s lottery and announced they wouldn’t be going back to work. 61-year-old Harry said, ‘I’ve been retired for two days now. I thought I’d have to work for another four years but this like a dream!’Harry’s only plans so far are to pay off the rest of his mortgage and take his grandchildren on holiday. No one at his old factory was available to comment on how they would be replacing the six workers.Text C6LOGOVocabulary: Hiring and firingPut these verbs for talking about hiring and firing in the table.hire recruit give notice dismiss walk out sack fire lay off resigntake voluntary redundancy employ take someone on make redundantgive a jobtake someone’s job awayleave a jobtake someone onhirerecruitemploydismisssackfirelay offmake redundantgive noticewalk outresigntake voluntary redundancy7LOGOListening: Employment case studiesListen to five speakers describing what happened to them at work.

The people there were great and I really liked my supervisor but it was just too boring. I only started in order to make a bit of extra money when I was a student. I didn’t intend to stay this long and especially not after I finish my degree. So they said they were sad to see me go but they understood. Anyway, I told them when I wanted to leave, but they said I didn’t need to worry about what it said in my contract, so I didn’t actually have to work the full four weeks…S2: Someone had to go. We haven’t been getting the orders for a while so it was clear that they’d be laying people off sooner or later. Anyway, I thought rather than wait I’d go now and take the money. It was a good deal and it gives me a few months to find another job.S3: Well, it’s a good position and suits anyone who doesn’t want to work every day of the week. We had three applicants but it was obvious who was right. I think Samantha will be perfect. She’s keen and flexible which works well for both sides. And I think she can work at weekends, too, so that’ll come in useful. Especially around Christmas time.9LOGOS4: I couldn’t believe it. OK, so I’ve been late a couple of times but my boss said it wasn’t a problem as long as I made up the extra hours in the evening. And then someone, and I can guess who, reported me. You know, that one who works in accounts who’s always gossiping about other people. She said I’d been taking stationery from the cupboard and using it for personal correspondence. The manager asked me to come into the office so I could see what was coming. I wasn’t going to wait around and get a lecture. I was through that door before anyone could stop me.S5: The first thing I’m going to do is take the family on a nice long holiday while we can still afford it. Then I’ll start thinking about what I’ll do next when I get home. There’s plenty of time, though for someone of my age I’m not sure what I’ll get. Maybe I’ll just work part-time until my pension begins. It’s only seven years. Pity really. I would have liked to have stay on till retirement. Mind you, it’s worse for some of the others. They’ve got another twenty years to go. I mean, where will they get another job round here…10LOGOGrammar: Passives1. Complete sentences 1 – 8 with the passive form using the verb in brackets.1.

Read the article on page 61 and write in the correct letter, A – F, for the missing sentences.A. This is where we first find out about decisions that have been made, deals struck and the direction being taken.B. In the past few months, 290 employees at a government department have been sacked via their office intranet, while a car equipment firm laid off the workforce by email.C.

Two letters were attached, one saying her contract had been cancelled, the other that she should return any work items.15LOGOClicking the habit Email makes many things so much easier – including making someone redundant. (1) __________. In the case of Helen Saxon-Jones, she was checking her inbox from home one day when she read the subject line: “This email is only to be opened during office hours.” But she clicked on it anyway. (2)___________. Unable to believe it, the 29-year-old, who had been working as a project development officer with a charity, took the case to a tribunal. She finally received £12,000 in compensation from her former employer. But these bosses who dismiss workers by email aren’t necessarily evil, cowardly people – they’re mostly people just like you and me who have developed the habit of using email too much. (3)___________. They meet people and exchange email addresses rather than phone numbers. They email CVs to prospective employers. In a survey of workers last week, almost half admitted they email the person sitting next to them to avoid making verbal contact, and one in five of us uses email just to gossip about work colleagues.16LOGO Regardless of the field in which you work, it is a safe bet to guess that your first course of action on any given workday is to log on to your PC and begin checking your inbox. (4) ____________. We send a question and become offended if the recipient does not respond within hours. We have become slaves to the inbox, dependent on a constant flow of typed communication. So type-type-type, even when it is unnecessary. Workers type up their every thought and send off emails with tremendous inaccuracy or complete pointlessness. (5)__________. We are copied in on emails that do not directly affect us in the vague interests of keeping everyone ‘in the loop’. Email allows us to continue to work at home. Constant access leads to a compulsion to keep the communication going. You’re at home, and there’s nothing good on TV, so you decide to have a glass of wine and do a little work. As you review your inbox, you start firing off responses. (6) _____________. You don’t want them to read it and the next thing you know you’re sending even more emails to try and undo the damage. Another round of emails has begun!17LOGOVocabulary: Emailing termsUnderline one incorrect word in each group.0. check your: button, inbox, email1. click on: a link, a computer, an icon2. delete, save, click: an email3. send, copy, shut down: an email to (someone)4. log on to a: mouse, computer, website5. restart, delete, register: the computer6. back up, save, break: a document7. fire off, send, dismiss: a reply8. attach a: sender, file, document9. type in your: username, icon, address18LOGOReading: Internal communication and emailsTo: hans.nagle@Dear HansI understand there’s a problem with stock blocking the entrance.

If production doesn’t clear those exits at the back of the warehouse in time, we’ll be in trouble. In fact, why don’t you send them a memo?Inga Thursday 19 FebruaryDear ValterWith regard to your memo about the inspection, I’m afraid we’re unable to make space in the warehouse around the entrances.
