和老外聊天地道口语：老板会找谁开刀?
J: really? Where did you hear that?E: I met with the supervisor just this morning. I don't know, but I am a
little worried. Who do you think will get sacked?
J: I'm not sure…well, first, it couldn't be George. He is such a kiss-ass.
He'd wash the boss's dog if he asked.
E: no, it's not going to be George. I don't think it's Andy either. He is
involved with the boss's sister in-law. And you know how whipped our boss
is.
J: that's true. What about Lisa? I bet there's nobody who could do a worse
job than her.
E: Lisa? No way. I've heard a rumor that she and the boss were having an
affair. You know rumors can't come out from nowhere.
J: well,okay. Then there is still Michael. But he's pet after having the
best sales record for three months in a row. It definitely won't be Michael.
E: no, that would be crazy. But then who will it be? Oh dear, it must be
me. I should have known it! Why else would he have talked to me alone about the
downsizing. What should I do? I've got a family to support.
J: well, it could be me too. But I am not too worried. This place is
suffocating me with this boss being such a hard-ass and clleagues who barely
know how to get dressed in the morning. It would almost be a blessing to be
fired from this place.
