First Day at Work

 

上班第一天

 

A: Good morning, Jane. I’m the new secretary.

 

A：早，简。我是新来的秘书。

 

 

B: Good morning, Emily. You’re half an hour early.

 

B：早，艾米莉。你早到了半个小时。

 

 

A: I don’t want to make a bad impression.

 

A：我不想留下不好的印象。

 

 

B: Come on over. This is your desk, and this is your time card. Be sure to clock in and out before and after you work.

 

B：过来。这是你的办公桌，这是你的出勤卡。每天上下班记得都要打卡。

 

 

A: I will.

 

A：我会的。

 

 

B: One more thing. Keep your desk neat. It’s the rule. There’s no exception, even the art designers have to keep their desks neat.

 

B：还有一件事。你的办公桌要保持整洁。这是规定，没有例外。即使是美术设计人员，他们的桌子也要保持整洁。

 

 

A: I’ll keep that in mind. Does everything on this desk belong to me?

 

A：我会记住的。这桌上的东西都是属于我的吗？

 

 

B: Not belong. You can use them as long as you work here. When you quit, you’ll have to return them to the company.

 

B：不属于。只要你在这上班，你就可以用它们。但是离职时，你要把它们全部归还公司。

 

 

A: What’s the extension number for my phone?

 

A：我的分机号码是多少？

 

 

B: The operator will put all your calls through. You don’t have to worry about that.

 

B：我们有总机帮你转接所有的电话。这你不用担心。

 

 

A: Can I make personal phone calls during my office hours?

 

A：上班时间我可以打私人电话吗？

 

 

B: Of course you can. Everyone has his personal matters to deal with more or less, but don’t chat over the phone. What’s more, don’t let it hinder your work and the company’s business.

 

B：当然可以。每个人都多多少少有私事要处理，但是别用电话聊天。还有，不要让私事妨碍工作以及公司业务。

 

 

A: I understand.

 

A：我知道。

 

 

B: When you settle down, I’ll show you around and introduce you to the department managers.

 

B：等你安顿好，我会带你参观一下公司，同时也把你介绍给各部门的经理。
