Subject:Simon
Dear Amanda,
I was really surprised to hear that Simon had handed in his resignation yesterday. I really thought that he was happy here but apparently he was headhunted by one of our rivals to lead their Sales department.I suppose it means more and more responsibility there but we will certainly miss him.Anyway, I wish him all the best.
Yours,
Edward
親愛的阿曼達:
聽說西蒙昨天提交了辭呈,我實在是大吃一驚。我原來真以為他在這里工作很愉快。不過,很明顯他是被咱們的一個對手挖過去主管銷售的。我想,這也意味著他在那里會承擔越來越多的責任。當然,我們肯定會想念他的。無論如何,我祝他一切順利。
愛德華謹上
