                Quite the entrance (ну, и вход)…“Once (I’ve got loads (много) of these) I
                got  sent  to  a  client’s  office  in  a  featureless  block  (в  квартале  без
                опознавательных  знаков)  in  Wembley.  Somehow,  I  managed  to  get  the
                directions up to the client’s reception horribly (ужасно) wrong. Before I’d
                realized  it,  I’d  opened  a  fire  door  (пожарный  выход)  out  onto  the  roof
                (крыше).  It  shut  (закрылась)  behind  me  with  a  resolute thunk  (чётким
                стуком),  leaving  me  no  option  but  to  walk  around  the  roof  trying  to  find
                another way in. Turning (поворачивая) a corner, I spotted (увидел) my work
                colleagues and the client all looking at me in bewilderment (недоумении)
                through the windows of their meeting room. They had to open a window for
                me to climb in (залезть), in front of everyone. Awkward.”
                Exercise 242. Put the verbs into the correct tenses.
             1.  Anyway, (to give) Theresa the heads up on this menial job, as she (to think) of
                (to apply) immediately.
             2.  Off the top of my head, Hugh (to appear) to be a real job hopper, and also he
                always (to look) sloppy and absent-minded.
             3.  It  (to  seem)  to  me,  more  and  more  employees  (to  expect)  to  receive  more
                money if they (to work) in shifts.
             4.  I (to guess) rookies (to be) on furlough soon, as they (not to consider) relocating
                and (not to look) ambitious at all.
