双语故事:有创意(That's Creative)

【英文原文】

That's Creative——有创意


Being the office supervisor, I had to have a word with a new employee who never arrived at work on time. I explained that her tardiness was unacceptable and that other employees had noticed that she was walking in late every day. After listening to my complaints, she agreed that this was a problem and even offered a solution. "Is there another door I could use?"

【中文译文】

　　我是办公室主管，有一次，我不得不跟一个从来不准时上班的新员工谈了一次话。 我向她解释说，她迟到的毛病是无法让人接受的，而且其他员工已经注意到她每天上班都迟到。 听了我的抱怨之后，她同意迟到是个问题，甚至还提供了一个解决方案。“有没有别的门我可以走”？
