After I made observations for a week, Mr. Hobbs asked me for an oral report of my findings. I covered my major points by telling him the following:
我觀察了一個星期后，霍布斯先生便要我就調查結果作一個口頭匯報。我把要點概括了一下向他匯報如下：
"If you have a quality control inspection, you will greatly improve your finished product."
“如果實行質量檢驗，你們就會大大改進成品。”
"If the assembly line is redesigned, a smooth work flow can be achieved and time and energy can be saved."
“如果把裝配線重新設計一下，生產流程就會達到平穩，并能節省時間和精力。”
"If you decrease the height of the worktables, the machine operators will work more comfortably."
"如果降低工作臺的高度，機器操作工作業時就會舒服一些。”
"If the management provides pleasant background music and beautifies the dull setting, the factory will be much more productive."
“如果廠方播放悅耳的背景音樂，美化一下單調的環境，工廠的生產率就可以大大提高。”
"If the workers have a fifteen-minute coffee break in the morning and afternoon, they will be more efficient."
“如果工人們在上、下午各有一次十五分鐘的休息時間喝咖啡，他們的效率就會更高。”
"If excellent work results in frequent pay increases or promotions, the workers will have greater incentive to produce."
“如果工作出色能經常得到加薪提拔，工人們就會有更大的生產積極性。”
Mr. Hobbs thanked me for this report and told me he would talk over my suggestions with his brother, the co-owner and manager of the factory. "We're interested in progress here," he said. "We want to keep up with the times." He also gave me a check for $ 100 and a box of shirts with his compliments.
霍布斯先生對我的匯報表示感謝，并告訴我說他將和他的兄弟——該廠的另一位廠主兼經理——討論我的建議。“我們關心工廠的發展，”他說。“我們要跟上時代的步伐。”他還送給我一張一百美元的支票并贈送給我一盒襯衫。
