Elementary - Daily Life - He’s not a Good Fit (C0035)
A: So, Lauren, I just wanted to talk to you quickly about our new customer support representative, Jason Huntley.
B: Sure, what’s up?
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.
B: Okay... 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?
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!
B: Well, I’m sure he had a perfectly good reason...
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.
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!
A: Make it work, Geoff. You would say that, wouldn’t you, he is your cousin; what a jerk, make me hire your stupid, useless, cousin.
A:劳伦，我想尽快跟你谈谈我们的新客户支持代表，杰森·亨特利。
B:可以,有什么事吗?
A:我对他有些顾虑，最重要的是，我认为他不适合我们公司。
B:好吧…你为什么这么说?我认为你对他的整体表现很满意。你不是上周才告诉我你对他的态度有多深刻吗?
A:是的，他的态度很好，但他真的很不靠谱。有时他工作很有效率，但其他时候……拿上周二说吧，他在我们上午的会议上迟到了四十五分钟!
B:嗯，我肯定他有一个很好的理由……
A:但不光是这件事情……你知道，他真的没有好的职业道德，我经常看见他在本该谈客户时在MSN和Facebook上跟人聊天。
B:是啊，可别这样，杰夫，好像你上班时不查看Facebook。听着，你雇了这个人，我们在他的训练中投入了很多时间和金钱，所以现在由你来指导他。加油,杰夫!
A:加油，杰夫。你应该这么说，不是吗？“他是你的表哥;蠢货，让我雇你那愚蠢的，差劲的表哥”。
