Letter of complaint
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to complain about the inefficient mobile phone service that your company has been providing lately.
I changed my plan two months ago, in order to benefit from one of your promotions. However, since then, I have had nothing but trouble with using the service.
My phone is constantly trying to get the signal, and consequently I am obliged to check it manually at every moment, as I need to be on call due to my job.
Furthermore, some of the applications do not work properly now, and the downloads are extremely slow. As a result, I have to be connected to every wifi networks available whenever I need to establish relevant information a data connection.
Taking everything into consideration, I would appreciate it if you would take full responsibility on the matter, finding an alternative a solution as soon as possible. In addition, I urgently ask you for a refund of the last two months' bill, as I have not been able to use my phone properly. I have not received the service I am paying for. Otherwise, I will feel forced to send a complaint to the consumers organization, as well as to look for a company which can meet my needs.
Should you need further information, do not hesitate to contact me. I am willing to cooperate with you, as I have been your customer for several years.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,0 votedMay 23, 20181- It means, "you aren't so great, so why are you comparing yourself to someone". In context, someone might say, 'Hey, I don't think he/she is very pretty' In reply you might hear, "Well, you're no prize yourself!" In this sense, it's something that would be said between friends who are joking around.0 votedApril 15, 20180
Does this sentence have a problem?
He will have studied for two hours until I call him.
He will have studied for two hours when I call him. This is it, huh?You can say, "He will have studied for two hours when I call him" or "before I call him". You can also say "He will have been studying for two hours when I call him".

With influence and power comes the responsibility to use it for positive outcomes (one should hope!). We would like to think that our political structures at least award power to people that will use it for good. Our economic strucures however tend to reward people for behaviors that are themselves negative: greed, exploitation, and the shortsighted misuse of the planet's resources for gains in the next fiscal quarter. So the more power we give to a system that rewards exploitation, the more we can expect it to use it to further achieve its goals.
It's human nature in the sense that we respond to incentives - if we get rewarded for doing something, even if it's negative for the planet and appears to be 'corrupt' from a societal level, the most powerful structures of our society reward these behaviors. Multinational corporations use huge financial incentives to keep their employees happy and rewarded - it's these benefits that keep the 'corruption' going.
That's power on the macro scale - and it can also be discussed on the micro scale, on the individual level.
The individual repsonds to power in different ways, whether it's power in personal relationships, at work, or in society in general. Our upbringings most likely heavily determine how we will act when we achieve influence over the lives and outcomes of people and resources. If it corrupts us, in the sense that it makes us act with negative behavior patterns towards ourselves and others, then it's likely a result of not having the psychological tools to deal with the responsibility that comes with the influence. Of course it can be learned, and we must hope people are receptive to changing the way they handle power to use it with positive outcomes.

Hay muchos hoteles excelentes en España. Puedes quedarse en un hotel moderno o con una piscina; hay muchas posibilidades.
Estará muy contentoa aquí.
Hay que probar las tapas también, son sabrosas.
Tortilla, pimientos con sal, mariscos picantes, y carne son opciones muy populares.
Hay postres ricos también, por ejemplo churros cubiertos en azúcar y flan.0 votedFebruary 28, 20180Comparing photographs
In the first picture I can see a waitress listening to what the customers are asking, whereas the second photo shows a trainer with a group of children who are waiting in a queue waiting and listening to her.
The waitress is working in a restaurant, and her job is maybe part-time, while the trainer is working in a football field and perhaps her job is full-time. I suppose that both jobs are not well-paid.
I think the waitress and the trainer can learn a lot from these jobs. The waitress learns by about listening to other people, working under pressure, being friendly and having patience (or 'being patient'). While At the same time, the trainer learns about keeping children in order and giving them clear and direct instructions.0 votedFebruary 27, 20181- Hey Sonia, I think you're right, and the author is suggesting that this new situation is so intense that it has made it difficult to remember a time when things were different, before Miranda Priestly entered their life. There is also a sense due to the last sentence that the last 5 week period has left the author thinking that they were in a better/happier/more positive place before the new situation with Miranda.0 votedFebruary 22, 20181
