Hi all,
In our last lesson, we learned the negotiating skills which are signalling, checking understanding and summarising. We listened some expressions (ex. 4.3) and finded which ones were signalling, checking understanding and summarising. Then we did a role play and tried to use these skills. Alptekin was a very persuasive retailer 
Secondly, we started the unit 5 - Job Satisfaction and talked about on that subject. We listened an inteview with HR director at Procter and Gamble (ex. 5.1-5.2).
Now, some vocabulary about the new unit:
praise = express approval or admiration for sb/sth
appraisal = assessment
perks = fringe benefits = money or goods received as a right in addition to one’s pay
remuneration = pay
autonomy = independence
golden handshake = severence package = money paid to an employee whose contract is terminated
burn out = ruin one’s health due to hard working
devil’s advocate = who speaks against sb/sth simply to encourage discussion
Lastly, we have an exam on wednesday and unit 5 will not be included.
