We will have to pass any rise in material costs on to the customer, should the need arise.

restructuring program (programme in British English) This is a plan to change the structure of a company. It almost always means that some people lose their jobs. Examples VW has just announced a restructuring program. 10,000 people lost their jobs the last time our group had a restructuring programme. I hope the restructuring plans don't effect us too much.

superfluous If something is superfluous, it is not necessary, because something else already does this task or fulfils this function. Examples We have too many managers, some of them are superfluous. They collected all the data from the customers but it was superfluous because I had already collected it myself. Don’t waste time on superfluous tasks.

a minefield If something is full of possible problems, it’s a minefield. Examples Doing business in the Middle East is a minefield for Europeans these days. You have to be careful if you want to invest in the new economy. All the people who have lost money in it will tell you that it’s a minefield. There are so many problem areas between British and American English, it’s a minefield.

Ne, nicht long im Cable. Aber short im Swissy um 15.10 Uhr. (Ausbruch nach unten) Zitat: „Original von Stadinski hallo DACHS und nun long im Cable? lg Stadinski“

und in Mittelfranken sagt man Weißwöscht Zitat: „Original von harley genau, und Würschtl sagt man nur bei den Franken und die wollen und gehören nicht zu Bayern Harley“

Für mich ist die Situation noch nicht klar. Werde erst abwarten bis ich was sehe.

Auf welchen Zeitframe beziehst du das? Zitat: „Original von Stadinski wer im cable long ist, sollte long bleiben. Es könnte einen rücksetzer auf 1,8720 geben. Danach sollte er wieder schön nach oben laufen. Meine Sicht der Dinge. lg Stadinski“

in time If you are in time for something, you arrive BEFORE it happens, normally only 5 or 10 minutes. This makes sure that you are not late. Examples I arrived for the meeting in time and I had a chat with my colleagues before the meeting started. I’m always in time for the English course so I can get a good seat and review my words before the course starts. I was in time for the presentation so I got a seat in the front row.
