Vocabulary 30 - C1

Herbert slumped onto the sofa, remote in hand. "Margot, I've had a dreadful day at Oakhaven Industries. Turns out, I’m just a mere civilian in the grand scheme of things. No respect!"

Margot, folding laundry nearby, sighed. "Herbert, dear, you’re a safety inspector. Not exactly a general. What happened?"

"Well," Herbert began, adjusting his position on the sofa, "the new coffee machine… it’s got a self-cleaning chamber. Fancy, right?"

Margot nodded, unimpressed.

"So," Herbert continued, "I may have… accidentally locked myself inside while 'inspecting' it. Turns out, those things are not designed for a man of my… stature."

Margot stopped folding. "You locked yourself in a coffee machine? Herbert!"

"It gets worse," Herbert groaned. "Apparently, there's a sanction on using the machine until the manufacturers come and assess the damage. And now everyone thinks I’m crazy."

Margot massaged her temples. "What damage, Herbert?"

"Well, in my frantic attempt to escape," Herbert admitted sheepishly, "I may have pulled the emergency pump. And now the entire break room smells like burnt hazelnut. I think it went through the ventilation system."

Margot stared at him. "You're lucky you weren't seriously hurt. And the fact that you weren't seriously hurt doesn't negate the foolishness of the situation."
