  MR. RAMIREZ: Come in, Arnold. Have a seat.
6 ^1 a0 U( E$ J& V  ARNOLD: Good morning.
$ i. \( T: s* _( a" X  MR. RAMIREZ: Would you like something to drink?/ g: _; E1 ]+ o4 }9 k1 D
  ARNOLD: No, thank you. I just had two cups of coffee at my desk.
* n8 l2 v; Z/ b* S) ~  MR. RAMIREZ: So, you're a serious coffee drinker.2 p& R9 M. `; g+ _1 B
  ARNOLD: Yes, it keeps me going. Sometimes I think I'm addicted.* w. d1 w8 Y' p! t
  MR. RAMIREZ: Well, coffee isn't such a bad thing.
  p2 F& j% W" ]0 Q- z* E% S  Everyone has to have something.
/ c3 M) P: I+ t9 C3 |. }1 o  For me, it's cigars. Are you a cigar smoker?
2 X, i$ ~  S* {2 W6 f  ARNOLD: No, I've tried them. But I’m not really a smoker.3 L* P+ d* i2 Z0 q$ o# |
  MR. RAMIREZ: Well, what would you like to talk to me about?
: P# K8 A" [0 v; x" v  ARNOLD: I wanted to set up this meeting with you to discuss a little proposal.
# o4 T' i5 [& d4 F1 v( X4 H* M  MR. RAMIREZ: I'm glad when people have new ideas around here. Tell me about it.8 X+ v" r! u5 _0 L! f
  ARNOLD: It is about the staff meetings.
  h; ^7 K- C% F8 V  You know how we have a staff meeting every Tuesday.
* Z9 U$ ~$ l' z: u  MR. RAMIREZ: Yes.
2 |. l! H+ {' h# D* Z* ~* A  ARNOLD: Well, I have been thinking about it.% a6 Y9 W) N/ f# Y4 \) K
  And I believe we could do things more efficiently here.
; P4 t* H' |, `* [$ T* U$ F) n1 j  MR. RAMIREZ: What do you suggest?( D% J4 j9 D6 u7 H
  ARNOLD: The way it is now, the staff from all four branches get together once a week.( B7 I5 _1 C' ~! z4 n( a3 b
  We meet for one hour. But I think a lot of time is wasted in transportation.
" K, f5 S3 e1 h1 N% {, Q8 i5 \2 K  MR. RAMIREZ: You mean because people have to go across town to get here.1 `0 y; s: D$ K7 b8 u, \5 V# `
  ARNOLD: Yes. Some people spend half of the morning on the road.
4 C* h8 ]6 z: Z8 L# W5 {/ a  MR. RAMIREZ: That's true. But our staff meetings are very important, Arnold.
5 ]( {+ @4 f- |/ `! B4 w  I don't know how we can function without them.
4 Q6 S7 g, e3 }. N& f3 y0 @  ARNOLD: I think they are important too.
+ q# M8 z: m+ I9 h  That's why I want people to have a better attitude about them.
  \# P) A/ C" H$ J  MR. RAMIREZ: I know a lot of people think the meetings aren't too useful.
" H6 v9 Q. P8 h' F' _  I'm aware of that.
4 B6 S% t" M/ ~9 s3 o  ARNOLD: Here's what I propose.2 K) _, o) X3 _. m
  I think we should meet once every two weeks, but meet for ninety minutes or more.
$ _/ l; m; B  F4 P' I/ G  MR. RAMIREZ: Well.
- D  H( i) Y& g- j/ \& G, P  ARNOLD: I also think the meetings should be more focused.
1 i( r* A7 `/ e6 ]6 J. B  And I would be willing to take responsibility for that." |# q. [$ a$ F4 d. d6 F
  MR. RAMIREZ: You mean you want to run the meetings?
4 R% T$ W  j. W6 E  ARNOLD: No, not really run them. But I could help organize them.7 B6 e# w5 g- W& {1 V5 H
  I could discuss meeting topics with you, and then prepare a schedule for each meeting.) p4 I7 O3 q; _5 ?
  I could then send an e-mail to all the staff to explain the coming meeting.- _( _$ L5 R! }
  This way the meetings would become more focused, and people would prepare better.& ~1 O! B6 n# M& u. r
  MR. RAMIREZ: Hmm. But we would meet every two weeks.2 _+ v" \9 Y0 ]% Z2 O
  ARNOLD: I really think it would work.
& [7 W& b5 b( `: g/ z, M  The meetings could be longer, and better organized.
# g8 B+ P# J1 v7 U: g  b1 i9 s% W  MR. RAMIREZ: I am not against the idea, Arnold.
9 `* s* H$ L9 |  It may really be more efficient, as you say. I'll tell you what we can do.: Q4 v5 r. r' n. i: H9 H+ K
  Why don't we try your proposal for a month, and see how it works.- ?! U4 Z. \5 l( L; L
  ARNOLD: Excellent. I would be happy to get started on it.
1 J! o( \* g% n  F! ^  MR. RAMIREZ: I will call the managers.
- R0 g* |; J" B% i+ T  Then tomorrow I'll tell you when we can schedule our first meeting in this “new style.”
$ D3 D% W. S2 J! O  仑米先生:进来,阿诺。请坐。* K/ R6 Q: X9 k: k# [# R9 g
  阿诺:早安。

  仑米先生:嗯,咖啡也不是一个坏事情。1 F! S7 W' _* o9 u9 X
  每个人都要有所喜好。
9 W$ u) |" X& \+ f  像我,就是雪茄。你抽雪茄吗?2 w5 J! y! s: H

  你知道我们每个星期二的干部会议。: f7 n  w3 z( w( N& ^9 a

  我相信我们可以做得更有效率些。, U; @, |8 Q. {7 P9 w
  仑米先生:那你的建议是?
: o. s5 Q. H. S) R  阿诺:现在的方法是,四个分公司的干部每一周都会来这里一次。: m( i; K+ M0 z9 l  K* Q4 w; [
  我们开会一小时,但我认为绝大部份的时间都浪费在交通上。# L# P/ {6 t% A4 P7 R' u) L
  仑米先生:你的意思是因为大家都要横越整个城市到这儿。
( e/ s/ Q0 u7 X1 B& i  阿诺:是的,有些人花了一个早上在路程上。7 a! x$ C6 l4 u2 y5 M
  仑米先生:没有错。但我们干部的会议是很重要的,阿诺。% f* a5 J3 r4 D5 K1 t+ U
  我不知道没有他们我们如何能运作。
8 ~' W$ n9 Q/ Y6 e  阿诺:我也认为他们很重要。
& |$ ]: m* \/ y* j4 t. M  那就是为什么我要大家对会谈能有更好的态度。
1 ^% e9 Z) z# W& \! b7 B. J  p  仑米先生:我知道有一些人认为会谈并没有太大的用处。3 t5 G/ p+ @* S5 J% u9 Q! O0 J6 l
  我知道这个的。
* W+ _3 ~3 f3 V1 p  阿诺:这是我的建议。

  我认为我们应该每两个星期开一次会,但一次开九十分钟或是加长。& u3 a# x8 q! g' p$ J4 u# ]
  仑米先生:这个。$ h/ I% q; \3 `* a* ~
  阿诺:我同时也认为议题应更明确。9 F5 A3 {6 B! L) O& l! A/ L7 n6 Y
  我愿意对这件事负责。) C4 X0 ?: J3 {" V+ j
  仑米先生:你的意思是你要主持会议?
$ X1 }5 Q" t. R$ K8 d  阿诺:不,并不是要主持会议。但我可以帮忙筹组。
0 C$ z$ E. l( I; q% v! _  我可以跟你讨论议题,然后准备每次会议的时程表。
0 D/ O( @, X+ o" U$ K  我可以寄电子邮件给所有的干部解说下个会议。  I- m9 O) J; X, H4 o4 e" {7 E
  这样的话会议就能更明确,大家也能准备得更充分。
0 |! X4 L7 |) f) X" a9 p% c  仑米先生:嗯,但我们会每两个星期开一次会。0 d; _7 \! U( [9 X
  阿诺:我真的认为这是可行的。

. J6 U6 ?2 d" L1 n/ t: K, i/ S  这或许会更有效率,就像你说的。我告诉你我们能怎么做。7 D) x1 [1 ?9 v, N  v) R
  我们何不试试你的提案一个月,我们再来看成效。( [5 X& g# h- O, t
  阿诺:太好了,我已经迫不及待了。
