Usages of esimies
Esimies päätti palkata uuden harjoittelijan, vaikka ketään ei ollut pakko palkata juuri nyt.
The supervisor decided to hire a new trainee, even though it was not necessary to hire anyone right now.
Esimies ei halua irtisanoa ketään, vaan yrittää ensin neuvotella työajasta ja tehtävistä.
The supervisor does not want to fire anyone but first tries to negotiate about the working hours and tasks.
Esimies oli jo lähettänyt uuden työsopimuksen, kun tulin palaverihuoneeseen.
The supervisor had already sent the new work contract when I came into the meeting room.
Esimies kysyi, mikä prioriteetti meillä olisi projektissa, jos kaikki ei ehdi valmiiksi sovittuun määräaikaan mennessä.
The supervisor asked what priority we would have in the project if not everything is finished by the agreed deadline.
