Learn German with GermanPod101.com! After going back to the German movie store and still not getting what you wanted, you decided on a comedy. It had better be as good as your friend says it is; you were really looking forward to seeing the movie you originally picked out. At the checkout counter, the clerk keeps looking at you strangely…almost like he is afraid. You finally ask him in German, “Is there something wrong?” He replies in German, “Oh nothing…it’s just sort of eerie. You kind of look like somebody in this movie.” Curious about his comment, you can’t wait to get home now and sit down to watch it. Hours later, bored out of your mind, you have not found anybody in this movie that you even slightly resemble! You ask your friend in German, “Do you think I eerily resemble someone in this German movie?” Laughing, he replies in German, “I wouldn’t say it is “eerie,” but you do sort of resemble somebody in the movie…the family dog.” Nice.

Learn German with GermanPod101.com! You are working your tail off on a work-study program in Germany. School is fun and you are learning a lot at the German university, but when you go to work, you are on the telephone for long periods of time and people really don’t like being disturbed during dinnertime. Going to work seems to start off okay most days, but then it becomes frustrating. You make the first few calls, and if you are lucky, people won’t hang up on you. Then, some people get irate with you, wondering why you are interrupting dinner. And to top it off, today you had five automated messages in a row, which just makes more paperwork for you to do. You finally get a live person on your sixth try and say in German, “Hello. I wanted to speak with the man of the house.” The voice on the other end replies in German, “My dad has been gone for three hours. Call back later.” You tell the child thank you, hang up, and become frustrated. You are never going to make commission if you can’t speak to anyone! The next three calls don’t work any better. You slam the phone down in the cradle as another German phone representative walks up to you and replies in German, “Has this been a rough day?” You start telling him everything that is wrong, venting in German, “I didn’t know this was the German telephone job from hell!” Laughing, he explains in German, “Because you are new, they have given you an old German directory with outdated numbers. Just have to hang in there until someone new starts and then you will be given an updated version.” Now it all makes sense…but it doesn’t change your opinion about the job.
