Where are all the class schedules?
Aa at the top. I look after the day-to-day procedures of the business. They
both run the business. He's in charge, but she looks after the 'day-to-day' procedures
of the business. This means she deals with all the little things that need to
be done every day. Notice it's spelled
with hyphens because it's treated as a single adjective. So what does day in,
day out mean?
Hopefully I inspire others by doing this day in, day out. And I find that the older I
get, I inspire people more because they see
that I've been doing this for a
long period of time and stuck to it. Day in,
day out means every day for a long period of time. He's stuck to it – he's continued exercising or working out every day. Now listen for 'rocking up': Belinda , no we certainly. I first envisaged that it would be rocking up and doing classes,
doing a bit of paperwork and that'd
be it. As it turns out that is a very small fraction of what you need to do
to run a fitness centre. Rocking up is arriving - usually to a place
where you're going to have fun. You rock up to a party.
So we've seen that
day in, day out refers to doing something for a long period of time, and day-to-day
describes things done on any ordinary day. To work out is to exercise.
We'll finish with the expression 'fly by the seat of our pants', which means to just do things without any plan. It probably
would have been better to open this up having the business experience rather
than having the fitness experience. It's definitely a lot more professional now
we don't just fly by the seat of our pants. We've got structure to our day and
lives and our business.
