Na, now I think I'll try some more of the English beer.
I think Anna's just done Tom a big favour. She's stopped him getting fired for now. Sometimes conversations with your boss can get too personal but I think Anna's got the hang of keeping things professional. Here's a reminder of what she said.
It's not appropriate to talk like that.
Could we change the subject please?
Can we keep our conversation professional please?
So Anna seems to be Mr Socrates's favourite team member but now she's got some explaining to do to Tom.
Anna, what were you talking about to Mr Socrates "Ideas for selling lasercurved oranges to Spain"?
He was going to fire you, so I was trying to tell him you had great ideas.
What? You helped me? Anna, I don't know what to say. I… I… I…
Yes?
I need to go back to the office to work on some ideas.
Good idea. Keep it professional, eh Tom? Until next time. Bye.他会的，Socrates先生，你现在想喝点其他的吗？稍微缓和一点的？橙汁如何？
不要，我想我要品尝更多的英国啤酒。
我想Anna刚刚帮了Tom一个大忙。她停止了Socrates先生解雇Tom。有的时候跟你老板谈话会比较私人，但是我想Anna懂的如何跟老板谈话。这是她所说的话。
这并不适合谈这内容。
我们能够换个话题吗？
我们能使我们的对话更加专业化吗？
所以Anna似乎是Socrates先生最喜欢的队伍成员，但现在她需要给Tom做些解释。
Anna，你跟Socrates先生谈些什么？将镭射橘子销售到西班牙的想法？
他打算把你解雇，所以我尝试告诉他你有一些号的想法。
什么？你帮我，Anna，我不知道说什么。我...我...我...
什么？
我需要回办公室想一些想法。
这是个好的想法，使更加专业化，Tom？下次我们再见。
