Have you tried finding other ways to practice your German than at the workplace? Your local library or the university (if your town has one) might have pinboards for finding a language partner, i.e. someone you meet with and practice your and their language skills together. That might be a more relaxed environment for practicing than the workplace.
For listening comprehension, there should be lots of resources online (for news I would recommend the "Tagesschau").
All the best!
- twixfel 3y agoYes I have tried, my experience in general is that the tandem partners are really quite flakey and difficult to keep going. I agree I should watch more TV and listen to more radio. But I don't even do these in my mother tongue, so there is twice the impediment.
- _Microft 3y agoI never managed to find a good tandem partner either. Maybe there is some Internet content you might like btw? The Youtube channel "KurzgesagtDE" has over a hundred videos covering a wide variety of topics in a more modern style if that might be more appealing?
