You're listening to lessen six of ESLPod.com's "Using English at Work."I'm your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan, from the Center for Educational Development.
In the fifth lesson of "Using English at Work," we learned vocabulary and phrases related to taking a break from work and having lunch.In our sixth lesson, we're going to talk about having computer problems when you're at the office.
Let's begin by listening to the story about these computer problems at a slow speed.When we return to the office, I know I have to try to make some headway with my report.
Unfortunately, as soon as I sit down in front of my computer, it starts acting up.First, my computer screen freezes and I have to boot it up again.
Then, when I try to print a copy of my report, it won't print.I discover that the problem is that the printer is jammed, so it takes some time to clear it and for it to work again.
Finally, when I think that my computer worries are over, my mouse and keyboard go haywire.I finally give up and call the computer tech.
I don't usually like calling the computer tech to help me with computer problems.She's nice enough, but she always makes me feel like I did something bad to my computer - something I shouldn't have done - even when I haven't.
When she arrives, she sits down at my computer and asks me a lot of questions to find out what the problem might be.I tell her about the problems I had and she asks if I'd had any problems while working on my word processing program.
I say that everything was fine, but I did have some trouble formatting one of my files and got an error message when working on my spreadsheet program.She starts doing something to my computer, typing on the keys a mile a minute for a long time.
Finally she says, "Okay, it's fixed. You shouldn't have any more problems now - as long as you don't abuse your computer."
