（单词翻译）

　　Let’s go to work! You can listen and relax while Harp¹ and Maura talk about trends in the workplace in Canada and the US. You’ll learn about things like casual dress at the office, free gym memberships, and other perks². They also talk about current trends in changing jobs and going back to school. This episode will make great water cooler talk!

　　Harp: Yeah, definitely. It’s important not to be a workaholic and spend 60, 70, 80 hours in the office or doing work. It’s important to have a good balance.

　　Maura: Right. We do have a lot of workaholics though, especially with technology and having a smartphone with you all the time. But more and more, people are realizing that it’s not healthy for you to work that much. You have to have a little bit of play time.

　　Harp: Exactly. You have to have downtime, time to relax and just enjoy life and not think about work.

　　Maura: Now, I know that there are some things that the workplace, or someone’s particular place of employment, is doing to make it easier for people to have a better balance between their work and their personal life.
