Awaiting a signature

A: Excuse me, Mr. White? I just need you to sign these before I leave.

B: Sure, Sherry. Sorry to have kept you waiting. If you hadn’t told me, I probably would have just forgotten all about them.

A: That’s my job, sir. Just one more signature here, please.

B: There you are.

等待簽字

A：對不起，懷特先生？我走之前需要您在這些上簽個字。

B：當然，莎莉。對不起讓你久等了。如果你沒有提醒我的話，我可能會忘得一乾二淨。

A：這是我的職責，先生。這裏再簽一個就可以了。

B：給你。

Arranging overtime

A: I hate to do this to you, Alice, but I’m going to have to ask you to put in some more overtime.

B: Does it have to be this afternoon, Mr. Fairbanks? I’ve already made plans.

A: Well, I would have preferred to do it today, but if you’ve already made plans, we can do it tomorrow.

B: I’d appreciate that, sir. How long do you think you’ll need me to stay?

安排加班

A：我不願對你如此，愛麗絲，可我不得不請你再加些班。

B：非得在今天下午嗎，費爾班克斯先生？我已經有安排了。

A：嗯，我希望能在今天做，可是如果你已經做了安排，我們可以明天做。

B：如能這樣我很感激，先生。您考慮讓我待多久？
