realised that this was the only possiblity to save the
company.
He works as a software consultant for an IT firm.
Stop politicising this issue. It all happens for
economic reasons only.

developing countries, but in the long run, it has
advantages for developed countries as well.

I need to find a holiday replacement. I can’t leave if
there’s nobody here to do my work.
Could you lend me a dime for a coffee? I’ve only got
50 cents with me.
I’ve never received a dime of compensation for all
the work I’ve done.
Everything you invent while working for us will
remain property of the company.
He says the working conditions for guest workers are
inhumane. That’s why he’s totally opposed to
outsourcing.
They are essentially treated like slaves.
The factory works them 70 hours a week, but pays
them next to nothing.
They’re made to work overtime without complaining.
Otherwise they’ll lose their jobs.
The result of this kind of working conditions are not
only physical, but also mental: burnout, depression
and wrecked families.
I’ve got to deal with a whole host of problems at the
moment.
Various mental diseases and social ills are the
consequences of capitalism and globalisation.
The current situation on the job market really
discouraged me from studying engineering.
After finishing my BA, I went on to do a Masters
course in physics.
I’m going to graduate from university next February,
but I’m already looking for a job.

You promised to stay with me in sickness and in
health, remember?
Trade union representatives are currently debating
the new salaries.
The trade union has already made clear that no
concessions will be made regarding the on-going

He greatly benefitted from tax breaks, but no-one
really knows if that was perfectly legal.
His books are a merciless critique of the evils of
capitalism and globalisation.
He’s a well-known and feared restaurant critic.
!
Listen, this is my favourite passage from the book!
The wedding ceremony took place in a small church.
Family and close friends were invited.
What the groom’s thought bubble says is truly
hilarious. Really made me laugh!
The bride symbolizes the U.S. job market, while the
groom represents U.S. corporations.
The cartoon pokes fun at U.S. companies’ lust for
cheap guest workers.
The bride was so nervous, she couldn’t properly
repeat the marriage vows.
He’s a very rich man. His lawyer urged him to have a
marriage settlement just in case.
His greed knows no limits. He just can’t get enough.

unskilled guest workers instead of qualified locals.
The aims we had and the values we cherished when
we started the business still endure now that we are a
big company.

must be protected at all costs.
We can’t just ignore this issue. We need to tackle the
problem actively.

sure they would make it.
I congratulate you on your success, with all my
sincerity.
