will be working vs going to be working=not interchangeable? "There are two structures for the future progressive tense, both of which are usually interchangeable.
subject | auxiliary verb (will) | be | main verb + ing | object/complement
subject | be-verb | going to | be | main verb + ing | object/complement"
When would they be not interchangeable?

Re: will be working vs going to be working=not interchangeable? I would have liked to listen to an example too. It's just an extract from the text about the future progressive tense. But it would not present an example when it's not interchangeable. I was kind of hoping that I would get a hint from native speakers.
