B: Thanks a lot.
多谢。
A: How's your assistant manager getting on?
你的副经理呢，怎么样？
B: Well, that's part of the problem. His probation period is up tomorrow and I don't think he's ready to pass.
嗯，这是个问题，到明天他的试用期就满了，不过我觉得他合格不了
A: What seems to be the problem?
问题出在哪儿呢？
B: Well, he was supposed to be able to learn his job in 30 days, but he just doesn't seem to know what he's doing.
他应该在30天之内了解，并且熟悉他的工作内容。不过他似乎并不明白他该做些什么。
A: If you gave him another 30 days. Do you think he could figure it out by then?
如果你再给他30天时间，你觉得他能弄清楚吗？
B: To be honest, he has no authority, he's a hard-worker, but no one listens to him.
老实说，他没有威信。他是个勤奋工作的人，但是没有人听他的。
A: I see. Not everyone is cut out to work in management.
我知道了，并不是每个人都能放在管理层工作。
B: I know. It'll be great if we could transfer him to a department where he doesn't have to work with people.
我知道，如果把他调到一个不用跟很多人一起共事的部门去，也许会很好。
A: There's an opening in the creative design department. It involves working with computers.
创意设计部有个职位空缺，只要整天与电脑为伴就行。
B: That's perfect. I'll let him know tomorrow. Thanks.
那太好了，我明天告诉他，谢谢。
