Finns det någon grafik i boken som illustrerar hierarkin på ett stort hotell
eller i en hotellkedja?

Råd: Skaffa boken "Hotel" = Hotellet av Arthur Hailey (ca 1966) på två språk.
Jag vill minnas att den beskriver atmosfären rätt bra, om än inte i management-
termer. Boken blir inte mindre intressant av att den utspelas i New Orleans.

hej!

skrev lite engelska igår.
skulle va kul om någon rättar felen.

the items one can find on my family´s kitchen table are protein like meat or eggs, vitamins and minerals like lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber.
carbohydrates like potatoes and pasta.

the kitchen table is square and i sit on the short end. my father is fat so he sits on the floor and my mother sits on the roof. so basically i sit
alone by the table.

my mother lays the table and does the cooking. she also does the washing up after we had our dinner or lunch occasionally my father helps
mom.

my eating habits are very regular. I can set the clock for my food intake for weekdays. I eat 5 times per day. 3 big meals breakfast, lunch and
dinner. I split my breakfast into 2 halves with a difference of 2,5 hours of each intake. I do it because I want to sleep a little longer on my workdays.

I have a job so my lunch is eleven o´clock each day and the dinner is set when i come home home after work.
on the weekends my habits are sloppy and I eat one less meal compared to weekdays.

the way to eat sensibly is to cook your own food I think.
to buy prepared food is the last resort because the lack of nutrition in it is too big.
the kcal in one portion Findus is around 500, most of the kcal are obtained by fat.
when you prepare the food yourself you choose and buy the neccesary ingredients yourself.
it takes more time to cook your own food but nutrition wise you get it all, escpescially if you ad lettuce to the meal and a glass of milk.

the food one should have at a dinner party Is not regular, boring food, you eat that kind of food daily so i think people want something special. It is got to be like you are going out to eat a dinner at a restaurant, you expekt the food to taste better then what you eat on a regular basis.
So to buy expensive food and put your heart in the preparing of it should make the people who attends at the dinner party sattisfied.
It is strongly suggested that the dinner should start with what the frenchmen call a "repetoir", a tease to get your plate ready for the main meal.
you should also end the meal with a dessert like a choclate cake or ice cream, or both.

most vegetarians do not eat meal becuase they think killing animals for food is wrong.
some vegetarians believe in excluding meat in your meals are more healthier for you.
you may think that the vegetarians do not get enough protein, but that is not the case,
because they usually buy vegetarian´s sausage and etc and in these fake meat there are alot of protein.

I still dont have a partner to discuss the questions in the book with.
But i sometimes discuss them with myself pretending to be a person who thinks the opposite of what i think.
that is a good way to improve your language skills.
It was kind of interesting to hear the story "desert dawn". the eating habits in the middle east is not like they are in sweden.
and they eat with their hand, left hand, if i remember correctly.
I have learnt a few cooking verbs necessary to use if I will cook with a englishmen.

the present tenses are quite tough to learn. but i think i have it to a decent level. I have spent several weeks devoted to tenses so I am sick of it and I stilll do not know why it is not a "s" on the word "become" in a sentence on the CD: present simple.

i read the suggestions on how to give a presentation infront of a group of people. I liked it but i think its more joyful to see a presentation with a person who lets his/her charachter shine through. Not being a robot who speaks and moves to a script one can read in an english book.

I like to workout in the gym. And if I want good results I need to think about what i eat.
I eat what my mother cooks and that is basic food like, fish, meat, potatoes, soups, sallad, and so on.
But I love junkfood, so 2-3 times a week i can not resist a "gidde" burger, bought at gideonsbergsgrillen.
there is alot of discussing about food cause people are more fat now then before. You can find a fast food restaurant so easily that have your meal ready in a few seconds. Or buy prepared food that you nuke in your microwave owen. These kind of food taste good but its to much fat and it is lacking to much vitamins and minerals.
people like coffe that is why coffeshops have become popular in recent years.
it is the same with junkfood, people loves it, that is why you can find fast food restaurants everywhere.

12. i used a dictionary daily for the past 2 weeks.
13 no, but i will see a movie without subtitles on this weekend.
14. to ask the teacher for advises on how to improve my learning. I am not a educated teacher so i dont have an answer really.
15: maybe to put the exercises in a situations that is pertinent and physical.

Jag missade att det handlade om ett hotell. Allt jag skrev stämmer för företag inom affärsvärlden.

Ny tråd infogad i den större.

/mod

Jag har jobbat några år på ett brittiskt företag och där används manager för den som är chef med personalansvar och officer används för de personer, som under en manager, har områdesansvar men inte personalansvar.

Exempel: På huvudkontoret finns en personalchef/personaldirektör (Human Resourses Manager/Director. På lokalkontoret finns en personalchef som kallas Human Resources Officer eller, om h*n har underställd personal, Human Resources Manager.

Vidare antar jag att en Front of House Manager bland annat ansvarar för reception, concierge och kassan på ett hotell. Det vill säga, de personalkategorier man som kund stöter på i hotellobbyn.

skrev ännu mer nu.
alltså jag bara skrev på.
det är svårt att skriva speciellt när man suger på svenska.
vet inte ens var man sätter punkter och kan knappt några ord ens på svenska. ännu värre på engelska.

jag är sämst.

How we celebrate.
I celebrate Christmas as the rest of the world Christians do. The feeling around Christmas is very special. It is a feel good feeling and I like that the sun sets early in the day, around 3-4 pm. I like it when it is dark and cold outside but warm inside, with lamps shining by the window creating a slightly murky light in the house. That is really comfortably. The Christmas day is spent home with my family and is quite boring I must say and I don’t like the food except for the ham. I eat ham all Christmas through, everyday. I make a sandwich with two layers ham on top and mustard for breakfast and before I go to sleep. I would probably eat it all the year through but it is kind of hard to find Christmas ham rest of the year.
We eat first and then exchange gifts with each other. We are all grow-ups in our family so there is no Santa coming knocking on our door. One year my mother was the Santa-clause and it tricked us all, because usually our dad dressed up for santa, but that year my mother had the santa custom.
I think it is quite fun that all big holidays are commercialized.
There is a certain shopping hysteria around Christmas. So much advertisements on the tv, internet and in the newspaper. And people goes nuts buying gifts and even gifts to themselves.
I love shopping around Christmas, all the shops display Christmas related stuff in their windows and in the store. It is a lot of people and all are friendly and in a good mood.

Everything went well. But I have lost my vocalbury trainer at Uppsala concert house. But I emailed them and got a reply 30 minutes ago saying she will search for it. So maybe I will get it back.

The understanding of tenses are quite poor but it gets better.
People are very superstitious. I came to that conclusion thinking of what TV programs are popular right now. There are several programs about mediums trying to connect with the other side, the ghost world.
Traditions are something nice that most people like. I think that is because it connects people and many people meet relatives they do not often meet.
We have imported one tradition: hallows eve.
Maybe we should import some more traditions, I don’t know. Maybe a muslim tradition just for the fun of it.

tack för svaren! Men jag har en till som jag glömde skriva med. Resident manager, vad är den svenska titel? samt vad har han för arbetsuppgifter?

Fastighetsskötare på hög (nåja) nivå.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_superintendent

Men vad är då Property manager?

Juridisk/ekonomisk fastighetsförvaltare med bredare ansvar än underhåll
och tillsyn. Termen är nog mera aktuell för hyresrätter och uthyrda villor än
för hotell.

Även där finns förstås Wikipedia-artikel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_manager
