Conversation:

A: So, Lauren. I just wanted to talk to you quickly about our new customer support representative, Johnson huntley.

那么,Lauran。我想跟您快速的谈一下我们的新客户支持代表,Johnson huntley。


B: Sure, what's up?

好的,什么事?


A: Basically, I've got a few concerns about him, and the bottom line is I don't think he's a good fit for our company.

其实我对他有一些担心。说到底,我觉得他不适合我们公司。


B: OK, what makes you say that? I thought you were pleased with his overall performance. Didn't you just tell me last week how impressed you were with his attitude?

了解,你为什么这样说呢?我以为你对他的整体表现很满意,你上周不是告诉我你对他的态度印象深刻吗?


A: Yeah, his attitude is great, but he's really unreliable. Sometimes, he's really productive, but then other times, take last Tuesday for instance, he was forty-five minutes late for our morning meeting.

是的,他的态度很好,但他真的不可靠。有时候他工作效率很高,但其他时候,就是上周二吧,上午的会议,他迟到了45分钟。


B: Well, I'm sure he had a perfectly good reason.

好吧,我想他应该有一个完美的理由。


A: But that's not the only thing. You know, he really doesn't have the best work ethic. I'm constantly catching him on MSN and Facebook when he should be talking to clients.

但不止这一件事情。你知道的,他真的没有很好的工作道德。我经常看到他本该和客户交谈的时候却在玩MSN和Facebook。


B: Yeah, but come on, Geoff. As if you don't check Facebook at work. Look, you hired this guy, we've invested a lot of time and money in his training, so now it's up to you to coach him. Make it work, Geoff.

嗯,但是,Geoff。仿佛你就不会在工作时查看Facebook。看,你雇佣他,我们投入时间和金钱培训他,所以现在就需要你去指导他,给他事做。
