男：我不確定該怎么辦。如果你是我的話(huà)，你會(huì)怎么做？你有什么建議嗎？
K: To be honest, if I were you, I wouldn't have the two of us work in the same office. I know Bob has been with the company longer than I have, but he's doing a terrible job. When you are not around, he just bullies people. People are afraid of him.
凱：說(shuō)實(shí)話(huà)，如果我是你的話(huà)，我不會(huì)讓我們倆在同一個(gè)辦公室工作。我知道鮑勃在公司的時(shí)間比我長(zhǎng)，但他工作做得非常糟糕。你不在的時(shí)候，他就欺負(fù)人。大家都怕他。

B: OK, I'll look into it a bit more. But you've got to promise me to keep cool and not let this happen again.
男：好的，我會(huì)再深入調(diào)查一下。但你得向我保證要保持冷靜，別再讓這種事發(fā)生了。
K: OK, I'll try to handle things differently next time.
凱：好的，下次我會(huì)試著用不同的方式處理事情。
But you've got to promise me to keep cool and not let this happen again.

What would you do if you were me?
