職務轉調與薪事(新職位 vs.舊職位)

(★ 聽對話內容)

本週話題焦點:職務轉調與薪事 (新職位 vs.舊職位)

Kathy meets up with Dan in the elevator on Monday after work.
Kathy 禮拜一下班後在電梯裡遇見 Dan。


Dan: Hi, Kathy. How was your first day in the marketing department?
Dan:嗨,Kathy。你在行銷部的第一天都還好嗎??

Kathy: It went pretty well. We all have to work in a team, and all of my new colleagues are very nice. The atmosphere is a lot better here than it is in the sales department.
Kathy:很順利啊。我們得團隊合作,而我的新同事們人都很好。這裡的氣氛比在銷售部門時好多了。

Dan: I'm glad to hear that you are happy in your new stress-free environment.
Dan:很高興聽到你在無壓力的新環境裡過的開心。

Kathy: Enough about me. How are things going with you? Make any big sales this month?
Kathy:對我而言是夠開心的了!那你怎麼樣?這個月有什麼大案子嗎?

Dan: Yeah, I just received a big order today from a German company. They are already one of my clients, but they just tripled their order on a permanent basis.
Dan:有啊,我今天才剛接到一個德國公司的大訂單。他們本來就是我的客戶之一,不過他們剛剛把原來固定的訂單增加為三倍。

Kathy: Wow! So your commission from them has just tripled also?
Kathy:哇!所以你從他們那邊抽取的佣金也變成三倍囉?

Dan: Yeah, and I didn't even have to lift a finger. I love this job!
Dan:是呀,而且這根本不費吃灰之力。我超愛這份工作的!

Kathy: Well, I don't miss it a bit. I remember nights when I couldn't even sleep because I kept thinking about making a sale. I think that you have to have a certain kind of personality to be successful in sales.
Kathy:這個嘛,我一點都不會想念它。我還記得那些我睡不著的夜晚,就是因為我一直想著要有銷售成績。我想你一定是得有某種人格特質才能在銷售業裡成功。

Dan: Well, you can sleep well from now on. I always sleep well. I dream every night about making millions of dollars!
Dan:嗯,從現在起,你就可以好好睡啦。我一直都睡的很好。我每天晚上都在做我賺了幾百萬元的夢!

Kathy: I think that money is all you ever think about! See you tomorrow.
Kathy:我看你滿腦子都是錢耶!明天見囉!
