Colleague: Hey, man, look, what's on the wall over there?

Benjamin: Don't you know that? It's all about new office rules.

Colleague: What does it say?

Benjamin: It says smoking is not allowed in any private offices. It might be the most terrible thing for you.

Colleague: I can smoke outside of the office. But what else does it say?

Benjamin: If you want to ask for leave, you should get the approval from the manager in charge of your department.

Colleague: But if there is an emergency and the manager is of absence, what should we do?

Benjamin: The note says you should call your manager first, and then tell him your reason, and then ask him for the approval.

Colleague: OK, OK, got it. By the way, what about the vacation policy? Anything changed?

Benjamin: No. We still enjoy 10-day of paid vacation per year.

Colleague: Can we have 7-day holiday on National Day?

Benjamin: Of course. That's what we deserve.

Colleague: That's great!

Benjamin: I have something else to remind you of. Don't be late, if you are late, you will be fined 20 Yuan per minute.

Colleague: Are you kidding? I always get up late. Oh, my God. Can't believe that. That is terrible.

Benjamin: So remember to set your alarm clock.

同事:喂，兄弟，那邊墻上貼的是什么呢?

本杰明:你不知道嗎?那全都是新的辦公室制度。

同事:那上面說(shuō)什么呢?

本杰明:上面規(guī)定，不允許在任何辦公室抽煙。對(duì)于你來(lái)說(shuō)，這是最可怕的。

同事:我可以去辦公室外面抽啊。那還有什么規(guī)定呢?

本杰明:如果你想要請(qǐng)假，你得先得到部門(mén)經(jīng)理的允許。

同事:但是如果有緊急情況，經(jīng)理又不在，我們?cè)趺崔k呢?

本杰明:通知上說(shuō)，你得先打電話(huà)給經(jīng)理，然后告訴他原因，再申請(qǐng)得到他的允許。

同事:好的，好的，知道了。對(duì)了，那放假制度改了嗎?

本杰明:沒(méi)有。我們?nèi)匀幌碛?0天的有薪年假。

同事:那國(guó)慶還放7天假嗎?

本杰明:當(dāng)然啊。那是我們應(yīng)得的。

同事:那太棒了。

本杰明:我還得提醒你一點(diǎn)，不要遲到，如果遲到的話(huà)，你將被罰款每分鐘20元。

同事:你在開(kāi)玩笑吧?我總是起來(lái)得很晚。噢，天啊，讓人太難以相信了。那太可怕了。

本杰明:那你就記得調(diào)好你的鬧鐘。
