Why was the subjunctive used for « réunisse » in the first part of the sentence but not for « prend » for the second part?

Bonjour, pourquoi dans la phrase “Allain s’attend à être licencié”, c’est qu’on manque le “ce que” ?

Why is a sales ASSISTANT, referred to as vendeur? A salesperson ( un vendeur) is different than a subordinate salesperson assistant. I used the qualifying adjective and it was marked wrong.

Hi where can get some exercises on this. Also is there a lesson on it? I searched but didn't find any

Re Daniel E’s post and responses below

I’m finding the use of the subjunctive past for future actions unexpectedly tricky, I think because the English "I need to leave by nine" or "they need us to arrive", already includes the idea of a completed future action (you can’t leave without having left or arrive without having arrived!)

Is the subjunctive present ever an option in this type of sentence or is the subjunctive past mandated?

Hi Team,

Does the following sentence work in French:

Cela ne tient pas compte d'effets négatifs de la lumière bleue qui perturbe notre horloge biologique.

Bonne journée !

is this the same for all future tenses?

for example jouer - becomes je jouerai so you dont pronounce the e after this i either? 

Please reconsider level of execise. I would suggest rather it is a B2 level because it is considerably easier than the other C1 execises 

“On vous appellera quand on arrive” would be considered an acceptable, if casual sentence, as opposed to “on vous appellera quand on arrivera” which is a bit clunky, no?
