Transcript
Jani: Welcome to the department, Yuki. Let me show you around and tell you about your new colleagues. I'll introduce you to them all later.
Yuki: Great. Thanks. So, who are those people over there?
Jani: That's the order management team. Luciana deals with the new orders. She's the one with short, dark hair.
Yuki: In the purple dress?
Jani: Yeah, that's right. You'll probably work closely with her while you are learning about our ordering process.
Yuki: Got it, thanks. And who's that over there? The guy who's on the phone?
Jani: Oh, you mean the one by the window? In the green shirt? Ah, that's Ian. He's the marketing director. And that's Maria beside him. She's responsible for the internal IT systems.
Yuki: OK, I'll try to remember all of this. I should probably be taking notes!
Jani: Don't worry about it. For now it's just good to put some faces to names.
Yuki: OK, great – and who do I talk to about setting up my mobile phone with email access? Is that also Maria?
Jani: No, you need to talk to Sebastian who works in communications. He can help you. That's him over there, next to the printer.
Yuki: Thanks. I'll introduce myself to him later.
I am a student. Currently, I don't have a job.
My colleagues are wonderful people. Most of them are working very quietly and they do not talk too much. When we get out for a break, we have very interesting conversations. We talk, talk, and talk like we didn't see each other for years. After we get to the office, we start to work again, and we don't talk anymore.
My coordinators are Agustin and Alexandra, Agustin is the academical coordinator and Alexandra the cohabitation coordinator; them are Romel, Yesid and Stephania in the social studies area; in the humanities area are the teachers of spanish John and Elvia that are older than the english teachers Edward and Carolina; Obdulio is a new teacher in that area; Fabian is the sports teachers, he has a beard and Hasbleidy that is very elegant, she is a dance teacher
Honestly,I'm still student and I don't have colleagues now. But I can tell you about my friends.I have many friends.Cause I'm good at in communication,everyone love me.Some of my friend are really kind and friendly.Most of my friend are beautiful and have long hair.I have guy friend too.He is really nice to me. And he can speak English than me.So,sometime he instruct me how to study English.And I'm living in hostel now cause I'm a University student. My roomate name is Poe and she is very beautiful. Her hair is also long and has white skin. My roomate and I are very get along.But the fact is she has boyfriend and I 'm still single.
My office manager, Alexander is small person, likes different electric transport like scooter or bicycle. My hr-manager, Nikolay is a bit fat guy, looks like armenian, but he is russian. Matvei is backend-developer, he rides the motocycle like me. I've got one more backend-develop, Andrey. He encourages russian offence to Ukraine... silly guy, still don't understand how he could become a developer.
I do not work now but i can describe my groupmates. Some of them wear classic uniform and they are responsible for different tasks. They also are very serious. And another part are used to live more comfortable and funny.
that is good
I have five colleagues in my team. Cynthia is one of my closest colleagues. She has short dark brown hair, and I get along with her the best because we have similar responsibilities. She is in charge of drafting, modelling, and project coordination. Chris is another colleague who is in charge of estimating and procurement. He is my alumni, so we are close as well and have collaborated on some projects. The other two new colleagues are Edwin and Jamie, who mainly do drafting and estimating work separately. Edwin is polite and smart, Jamie looks very young and beautiful even she is a mother of a 7 yers old daughter. As their mentor, I guide them to adjust to the new environment, so we communicate frequently. Our team leader, Manager Leo, is responsible for production cut lists and coordinating between the production team and our drafting and estimating team. He has a serious face and takes his role very seriously.
Yes, I can describe my colleagues. They look a like in the same uniform of the company. They do the carpet fitting work.
I share the office with 4 graduation professors and 4 research fellows. i was the only woman workinh in the office, but now i have the company professor marina and fellow student, Nena.
