Don't be non-committal and say something vague like,“Can I help you?”because they might just say,“No, I'm good.”The key is to not sound patronizing. Be specific.“I had the same problem with this coffee machine in the morning. I think I have figured a way to make it work.”
不要害怕承諾并說一些模糊的話,“需要我的幫忙嗎?”因?yàn)閯e人可能以為你只是說說,“不,我很好。”并要注意不要以恩人自居。要具體一點(diǎn).” 早晨我也碰到這個(gè)咖啡機(jī)出現(xiàn)過同樣的問題。我覺得我想到了一個(gè)辦法能把它修好。”
