Hello and welcome to Real Easy English, where we have real conversations in easy English to help you learn. I'm Georgie. And I'm Becca. You can find a video version of this podcast on our website and test yourself with a worksheet on bbclearningenglish.com.
Hello, Becca. How are you? I'm really well, thank you, Georgie. How about yourself? Yes, I'm good, thank you. Are you having a busy week? It has been a little bit busy, but also quite fun. How about yours? Me too. I've had a busy week, but it's going well. And Becca, today we're talking about work. We're going to talk about what we're good at at work, and also what we do when things go wrong. Ooh, okay. So...
What do you like about work? I like that we have different tasks to do in the day. And some of them are creative. And then other tasks you really need to kind of put more thought and focus into. Becca, do you ever find work stressful?

Chapter 2: What are common stressors in the workplace?
Tietysti. Luulen, että työskenteleminen on vaikeaa jo jossain vaiheessa työskentelemisestä tai työpaikasta. Luulen, että jos en ole suunnitellut asioita hyvin, jos en ole tehnyt valmistelua hyvin, niin minusta asiat ovat hieman vaikeita itselleni.
Yeah, me too. When we have lots of projects as well, like when we have a lot of things going on, it can be stressful to kind of juggle different tasks. And when we need to publish a new podcast or a new video series, there can be a lot of pressure to get things done. So would you say that you're someone who gets stressed easily at work? Because you seem to be
quite calm all the time. Yeah, no I don't actually get too stressed very often. Even when there's a bit of pressure at work, I tend to stay quite calm. I always just think there's no point in worrying. Worrying doesn't actually fix the issues. And you can only do what you can do. So yeah, I tend to stay quite relaxed. What about you? Do you get quite stressed or...
Niin, kuten aiemmin mainitsin, minä olen yleensä melko organisaatioinen henkilö, mutta tietää, että on joitain asioita, joissa tunnen, että olen hieman disorganisoitunut. Ja jos en ole valmis, löydän itseäni ongelmallisia tilanteita.
Voin alkaa tuntemaan hieman nervoivana, erityisesti kun aikaa mennään läpi jotain. En oikein työskennellä asioita myöhemmin. Ei vain työssä, vaan yleisessä elämässäni. Joten tuntuu nervoivana, jos et tuntemaan organisoivana, mutta oletko hyvä organisoivana?

Chapter 3: How can organization help reduce work-related stress?
Yes. If I write things down, then I tend to stay organized. It's likely that I won't feel very stressed. I can start to relax a bit when I know that, you know, I've ticked things off my list. Do you write to-do lists? I do. I do write to-do lists and that can be really helpful to kind of keep calm because you have your whole plan ready.
on a page that you can see and you can kind of know where you are in your week, which is really helpful. What happens when things go wrong at work? How do you deal with these situations?
No, olen ollut täällä vain hieman aikaa verrattuna itselleen ja teille. Ja tunnen, että olette kaikki todella tuhoavia. Joten jos minulla on jotain, jota en ole kuitenkaan loppunut, tai minä en ole varma, mitä minä teen siitä, tai se vain menee täysin väärin, niin tunnen, että voin tulla itselle tai jokaiselle teille kysymään.
for a little bit of help or guidance. Oh, that's good. I don't think anything's gone completely wrong since you've been here. Not yet. Audio listeners, fingers crossed.
Okay, let's recap the language we heard during the conversation, starting with stress. Now stress is a feeling of worry, usually caused by a particular situation. And you can describe a person as being stressed, and that is the feeling of having stress. And we can also say stressful, which describes the situation.

Chapter 4: What strategies can help when things go wrong at work?
We also had calm, and that's when you don't feel stressed or worried about something. For example, Georgie is always very calm at work. We also heard nervous, which describes someone who worries a lot. We had organised. Someone who is organised plans very well and prepares very well. The opposite of organised is disorganised.
And we heard supportive. And if someone is supportive, they help other people. That's it for this episode of Real Easy English. We'll be back next week with another Easy English conversation.
