辦公室會話:遲到 [ 2007-04-30 09:58 ]
通常公司都會允許不超過三次的善意遲到,但要是天天遲到、還總拿鬧鐘不響做借口的話,建議你還是買上三個鬧鐘吧,主管并不是那么好糊弄的呀。
Rosie: Sorry, I overslept. My clock didn't go off this
morning. 羅茜:對不起,我睡過頭了。鬧鐘早上沒響。
Francie: Again? 佛朗斯:又沒響?
Rosie: That's right, even though I did set the alarm last
night. 羅茜:是的,我昨晚確實訂鬧鐘了。
Francie: Your clock never works. Perhaps you should buy a new
one. 佛朗斯:你的鬧鐘從來沒好用過,也許你該買個新的了。
Rosie: Well, if it breaks down again tomorrow, I'll definitely buy a new
one. 羅茜:如果明天它再壞,我肯定買個新的。
Francie: Maybe by then it'll be too late. 佛朗斯:也許那時就太晚了。
Rosie: What do you mean "too late"? 羅茜:"太晚"是什么意思?
Francie: By that time you'll be fired. 佛朗斯:到那時你就被抄了。
