W: Hello, Anna speaking!
M: Hey, Anna, this is Jason.
W: Jason, where have you been hiding lately? You know it's been a long time since your last call. Have you been good?
M: Yes. How are you, Anna?
W: I am fine. What have you been doing?
M: Working. I've been really busy these days. I got a promotion.
W: That's great, congratulations!
M: Thanks. I am feeling pretty good about myself too. You know, bigger office, a raise and even an assistant.
W: That's good. So I guess I'll have to make an appointment to see you.
M: You are kidding.
W: How long have you been working there?
M: A bit over two years. This is a fast-moving company, and seniority isn’t the only factor in deciding promotions.
W: How do you like your new boss?
M: She is very nice and open-minded.
W: Much better than the last one, huh?
M: Yeah. He was a real slave driver. He probably would have loved it if we were robots.
W: Forget about him. Come over to my house tonight. Let's get drunk.
M: Good. Tonight 8 o'clock.
W: 8 it is. See you then.
M: Bye.
W：你好，我是安娜。
M：嘿，安娜，我是詹森。
W：詹森！你最近躲到哪里去了？你知道，从上次打电话到现在已经好久了，最近好不好？
M：很好，你怎么样，安娜？
W：我很好，最近你忙什么呢？
M：工作。这些天我特忙，我升职了。
W：太好了，恭喜恭喜！
M：谢谢，我自我感觉也挺良好的。你知道，办公室大了，加了薪水，甚至还有个助理。
W：不错，我猜我要见你的话得预约了。
M：开玩笑。
W：你在那家公司干多久了？
M：两年多一点，这是一家发展很快的公司，资历在这儿不是决定升职的惟一标准。
W：你的新老板怎么样？
M：她人很好，思想也很开明。
W：比上一个好多了，是吧？
M：是的，上一个真是个奴隶主，他简直把我们当机器人了。
W：忘了他吧，今晚到我家来，咱们一醉方休。
M：好的，今晚八点。
W：说定了，回见。
M：再见。
注释：
1．“slave driver”原来指“监督奴隶工作的人”，本文里引申为“苛刻的上司”。
