Out of Milk

Hello everyone

Hope you had a nice weekend ;)

I am running out of milk.

I am running out of time so let's get cracking.

I am running out of words to say to you. I am wasting my time.

Jesli czegos co potrzebujemy nie ma juz wcale wtedy uzywamy wyrazenia "I am out of"

I am out of milk. Can I borrow some from you?

I am out of the office - nie ma mnie w pracy.

I am out of love - nikt mnie nie kocha ;(

You are out of my league - jestes poza moja liga (jestem lepszy/gorszy od ciebie, ale raczej mowiac to wyrazenie myslmy jestem lepszy).

Mozna rowniez uzyc:

I am running short of ... znaczy to samo co I am running out of...

I don't have any ...

Ciekawostka:

Incorrect bill / receipt / invoice

Hi all

It might happen that you will be charged incorrectly by waiter at a restaurant, or seller for item you ordered or at a till in a supermarket.

Below are expressions you can use when you are incorrectly charged:

Excuse me, I have been charged for two drink whilst I have ordered only one.

Excuse me, I have been charged 3 pounds for the sunrise drink, however according to your price list it should have been 2 pounds.

Excuse me, you have charged me for the item that I haven't ordered, it's pasta with mushrooms, I haven't ordered this, I have ordered pizza with mushrooms. Could you please amend the bill?

Excuse me, I have been incorrectly charged as the bill includes coca cola which I ordered but not recieved. Could you please amend this bill?

Not sure what else could happen ... any ideas?

Kisses and hugs

Have a lovely weekend

Pay Rise on the agenda

I did it!!! I did it!!!

I asked my manager for a pay rise. He didn't say yes, but he didn't say no either so there is still a chance to get it. I also asked him when I could pick this up with him again as it is very important for me to get a pay rise. He said in a month time. The reson for that is that our team is in the middle of some restructures and changes that needs to be done. And also, he is in discusion with head of department regarding our team role in company groth and success ... I know this is true as I have already spoken to him about this.

Changing the subject - I had bought a uv lamp for drying nail varnish and one girl from reception asked my if I could let her know if it's good or not as she bought one for £80 pound and it wasn't good.

W jaki sposob opisac problemy z komputerem?

I can only assume - moge sie tylko domyslac ze ...

My computer is playing up - moj komputer nie pracuje tak jak powinien  (cos musialo sie zepsuc)

My computer is running very slowly - pracuje bardzo wolno

Reboot your computer - restart

My computer is unresponsive and is too slow to load anything - nie odpowiada, zbyt wolny by cokolwiek zaladowac.

My computer has frozen up and it won't let me opening anything. - zawiesil sie i nie pozwala nic otwierac

takes a long time to start up - zabiera mu duzo czasu zeby sie wlaczyc.

beep - wydawac odglosy

What do you think could be wrong?

Could you please look into this and fix it?

It could be overheated - przegrzany

It could be a processor going bad - procesor mogl sie zepsuc

It could be a virus - moze to byc wirus.


Having said that - uzywamy gdy wyrazilismy swoja opinie / stwierdzilismy jakis fakt i co w zwiazku z tym nastepuje. Housing is expensive in UK. Having said that I need to ask for a pay rise.

Shambles - one heck of a mess

When the job market is in a shambles, people have trouble finding work. When a supermarket in a shambles, there might be melons and milk spilled all over the floor. If everyone in a classroom is talking and yelling at once, the class is a shambles, because no one can hear each other or get any work done. People say things are "in shambles" or "a shambles" — they mean the same thing. However you say it, a shambles is chaotic, disorderly, out of hand, and off the hook — a major, five-alarm mess.

What a shambles!!!

This expression is used very often when you want to complain or express your opinion about bad servise you were offered in the restaurant or in a shop / market / office.
