I: hey, Maris, are you a part-timer?

M: part-timer? Is that a new buzzword?

I: oh, it’s pretty popular among my classmates these days. So are you?

M: sure, I have a part-time job as a bartender.

I: cool! It must be amazing to work at a bar!

M: yeah, but I’m not there for fun. I have to remain professional 1 and if I get distracted 2, the manager would be pretty upset.

I: that’s true. I’m wondering did you learn anything from the job?

M: of course. There’s always much to learn. I got to know more about the real world.

I: you mean you got working experience, right?

M: not just working experience. I would say the biggest lesson I learned 3 is how to deal with people from all walks of life.

I: it must be very demanding.

M: sometimes it is. But after working for a few weeks, it’s easy to figure out.

I: really? It sounds interesting.

M: maybe you can come to the bar one day and I’ll show you around.

I: great. I’m looking forward to.

嘿,玛利亚,你是个”兼职人士”吗?

“兼职人士”?是个时髦词吧?

哦,这几天我同学一直说这个词.你做兼职吗?

嗯,我在酒吧做调酒师.

哇,好酷啊,在酒吧工作很有意思吧?

是的,但是我可不是去玩的.我必须保持专业,要是我分心的话,经理会不高兴的.

那倒也是.你从中学到东西了吗?

当然啦,要学的东西很多,而且我更了解现实生活了.

你是说工作经验吗?

我觉得不但是工作经验,而是和各种人打交道的能力.

那要求一定很高了?

有时候挺高的.但是干上几星期,该知道怎么做了.

是吗?听起来很有意思.

你可以抽空来酒吧一趟,看看我是怎么工作的.

太好了!我很想去看看.
