職場美語:Asking for a raise (1)(美語聽力)ZT
Kim跟朋友Anita一起出去吃飯。
K: Hey, Anita! Great to see you!
A: Long time no see! I'm so glad you had time to meet for lunch!
K: I've missed you. How have you been?
A: Pretty good. The boys are doing well in school and John is enjoying his new job. You?
K: Pretty much the same. Still working killer hours and still angling for that promotion. I have a hunch I'm going to move up to vice president this year.
A: That's great!
Kim和Anita顯然是很久沒見了,互相詢問近況。Kim說,自己還是沒日沒夜地幹,work killer hours;爭取提升,angle for the promotion. Kim還說,I have a hunch, 有直覺,今年能升成公司副總。
K: How's your career going? Last time we spoke you said you were trying to get a raise.
A: Yep. That's the plan. I mean, I've certainly put in the hours. I'm definitely one of the most productive members of the company and I feel I contribute a lot.
K: So? What's the problem? Why haven't you gone in there and demanded a raise?
A: I just can't work up the confidence to do it. I know I need to, and I know I need it, but it's tough.
Anita想漲工資,可又不知道怎麽開口。她說自己就是鼓不起勇氣。I just can't work up the confidence to do it. Kim是怎麽指點她的呢?
K: OK sister, we are going to figure this out together. If there's one thing I'm good at, it's asking for what I need.
A: I don't even know where to begin. My son needs braces and his school tuition has just gone up. We really need to get a new car and even the dog has needs we can't pay for.
K: OK, stop right there. You can't base your salary request according to your needs. The company isn't a charity and if you go in and say, "I need" it's not going to work.
第一,不能跟老板說,我缺錢,因為公司不是慈善機構。Anita說,兒子需要整牙,學費漲價,家裏需要換新車,結果被Kim叫停。
A: I could probably make more money if I changed companies.
K: There you go...that's a powerful argument. But leave any threats till the last minute. What you need to do is stress your value.
A: I do have to consider the current global economic slowdown. Our company has been taking quite a hit.
K: That's true. You have to take those factors into account. But you also have to get paid at a fair rate.
Anita說,如果換個工作,工資肯定會增加。Kim覺得這是一個很好的理由,但建議說,leave any threats till the last minute. 威脅是最後的殺手鐧。Kim說,what you need to do is stress your value. 要強調自己對公司的價值。
