地道美語聽力播客893: 工作中受責(zé)罰

　　塔尼亞：你幾點(diǎn)和泰德會(huì)面?

　　James: It’s at 3:00. Why?

　　詹姆斯：三點(diǎn)，怎么了?

　　Tania: You don’t seem worried. If I were being accused of misconduct and up for disciplinary action, I’d be on edge.

　　塔尼亞：你看起來擔(dān)心啊。要是我被控行為不端，還要受紀(jì)律處分，我會(huì)坐立不安的。

　　James: It was a minor offense. I’m sure I’ll just get a slap on the wrist.

　　詹姆斯：那是個(gè)小過錯(cuò)。我想也就是得個(gè)警告。

　　Tania: I heard about it and it didn’t sound that minor.

　　塔尼亞：我聽說那可不是小錯(cuò)啊。

　　James: People blow things out of proportion. It’s not like I’ll be up for dismissal or anything.

　　詹姆斯：那是因?yàn)槿藗儛厶碛图哟?。還沒到會(huì)被解雇的地步呢。

　　Tania: I hope not, but you might get a written reprimand placed in your personnel file. That could affect your chances for a raise or promotion.

　　塔尼亞：但愿如此，可是你的人事檔案里會(huì)留下一份書面警告。這會(huì)影響你加薪和晉升的機(jī)會(huì)的。

　　James: I don’t have much of a chance of getting either one, quite frankly, so why sweat it? I’ll deal with whatever punishment I get.

　　詹姆斯：說實(shí)在的，我沒多少加薪 的機(jī)會(huì)，也沒有晉升的機(jī)會(huì)，那我還擔(dān)心什么呢?不管是什么懲罰，我都能接受。

　　Tania: I’m glad that’s your attitude.

　　塔尼亞：你這么想我就放心了。

　　James: What I say is: Don’t do the crime, if you can’t do the time!

　　詹姆斯：依我說，沒本事就別干，干了就別怕。
