慢速生活英语口语广播46:公司裁员 (MP3下载) job layoffs公司裁员 Dialog 英语情景对话 Phillip: So, have you heard the news? 男:嘿,有没有听见什么风声 Mary: No, what's up? 女:没有,怎么了 Phillip: I just heard that the company is planning to lay off 20 percent of the employees in the next two months. 男:我刚听说公司要在两个月内裁员20%。 Mary: You're kidding! I knew they were looking for some way to cut costs with the lower profits this quarter, but I didn't think that they would start laying people off. 女:开玩笑呢吧。我知道这个季度利润下降了,公司正在找办法降低成本,不过我没想到他们就要开始裁员了 Phillip: Yeah, it's hard to believe. That'll be hundreds of people losing their jobs. It's not just the salary. It means losing benefits, too. You know, I hope it's not going to be Sebastian. With three kids and a wife who's sick, that would really be a blow. 男:是呀,确实难以置信。又得有上百人丢饭碗经。不但工资没了,连福利也没有了。希望这回不要轮上赛班斯汀,他有三个孩子,老婆还病了,这会对他是一个严重打击。 Mary: When will we know who's getting axed? 女:我们什么时候能知道谁被裁员了呢 Phillip: I don't know if we'll get any warning. We might just get a pink slip on a Friday afternoon. Well, I'm going to start job hunting right now. 男:我都不知道会不会给我们提前通知。也许周五下午我们就接到裁员的通知。看来,我得马上找工作了 Mary: That's a good idea. The first thing I'm going to do is to call all of my friends and business contacts to let them know I'm on the market. Hopefully, I'll get a line on something soon. Thanks for letting me know. 女:是个好主意。我首先要打电话给我的所有朋友与生意伙伴,告诉他们我在找工作。说不定什么时候我就找到新机会了呢。谢谢你告诉我这个消息。 Phillip: Sure. If I hear anything else, I'll let you know. 男:当然得告诉你,有新的消息我还会通知你。 Mary: Thanks. I'll do the same. 女:谢谢,我也一样会的。 本文来源:https://www.wddqw.com/doc/7da0c05216791711cc7931b765ce0508763275a7.html
