通常公司都会允许不超过三次的善意迟到,但要是天天迟到、还总拿闹钟不响做借口的话,建议你还是买上三个闹钟吧,主管并不是那么好糊弄的呀。
Rosie: Sorry, I overslept. My clock didn’t go off this morning.

Francie: Again?
佛朗斯:又没响?
Rosie: That’s right, even though I did set the alarm last night.
罗茜:是的,我昨晚确实订闹钟了。
Francie: Your clock never works. Perhaps you should buy a new one.
佛朗斯:你的闹钟从来没好用过,也许你该买个新的了。
Rosie: Well, if it breaks down again tomorrow, I’ll definitely buy a new one.
罗茜:如果明天它再坏,我肯定买个新的。

佛朗斯:也许那时就太晚了。
Rosie: What do you mean "too late"?
罗茜:"太晚"是什么意思?
Francie: By that time you’ll be fired.
佛朗斯:到那时你就被抄了。
