IELTS Employment Topic: -Anecdote
It just wouldn’t stop! It kept on printing and printing! The entire report! 500 pages!!!
It was my first week working in this office and I already hated it!
The other office worker looked at me and asked me if it was me who had sent it and I said yes, her eyes rolled and she explained that their office cannot stop it and we will be out of paper soon!
I think this is just one reason why I dislike offices, at the end of the podcast I’ll share the ending to the story.
