Chapter 30 Time to Close Shop
第30章商店該打烊了
David ： Do department stores like this usually close at 9:30 ？
這樣的百貨商店通常是 9:30 關門嗎？
You： Yup.
是的。
David ： But the workers have to stay afterwards?
但是員工還得再呆一會兒吧？
You：Yes, they have to wait for all the customers to leave the building.
是的，他們必須等所有顧客離開后才能離開。
David ： Do you mean to leave the store?
你是說離開百貨商店嗎？
You ： Yes, to leave the store.
對，離開商店。
David ： And then when the bell rings, all the workers go running. It is interesting. They stand still waiting for the customers, and then all of a sudden, there is a mad dash. It is like they are escaping.
然后，當鈴響時，所有的員工都開始匆忙地離開了。真是太有趣了——他們先是站著等候顧客離開，然后，突然一下就不見了。像是逃跑了。
You：But they have a meeting in the evening.
不過，他們晚上有會議啊。
David ： Wait a second. What did the store’s loudspeaker just announce?
等等，剛才廣播里通知什么了？
You ：All workers have a meeting in the evening on the third floor.
全體員工今晚在三樓開會。
David ： So they all have to go there after work? I think I’ve seen it before in a grocery store. They all line up and the boss tells them what to do and what they did badly.
這么說，全體員工必須在下班后去三樓嗎？我想我曾在一家雜貨店門口遇見過這類事情。全體員工排隊站在一起，老板吩咐他們要做的事情，并且提出員工們做得不好的地方。
You ：Yes. They talk to the boss and he gives them the orders.
是的。他們向老板匯報工作。老板吩咐他們做事。
David ： What did the loudspeaker announce just now?
剛才廣播里又通知什么了？
You ：They welcomed all the customers to return to the store.
說“歡迎您再次光臨本店”。
