  Rebecca:Could you tell me a little about the organization?  For example, how big is your workforce 1 here?

Mr. Parsons: Well in total we have around 150 employees based in Hong Kong with another 400 in our head office in Beijing. The news desk staff in Hong Kong comprises around 80 staff.

Rebecca:I  see. And  how  about  the  working hours?

Mr. Parsons:  Well, as you know Rebecca, in journalism 2 work hours are not exactly nine  to five. You could be on call at any time. We do have to work very unsociable hours at times.

Rebecca:Well I am used to that, Mr.  Parsons, so that’s not really a shock for me.

Mr. Parsons:  Good, as long as you understand that.

Rebecca:And when do you need to fill the vacancy 3, Mr. Parsons?

Mr. Parsons: Yesterday! But no, we are hoping to start from the beginning of next month.

Rebecca:That sounds ideal.

Rebecca: 我明白了,工作时间呢?

Mr. Parsons: Rebecca正如你所知道的,新闻业的工作时间不是按时的朝九晚五,如何时候都是随时待命的。有时候我们必须得在远离人群的时间工作。

Rebecca: Parsons先生,我已经习惯于那样工作了,所以那对我来说并不奇怪。

Mr. Parsons: 好的,还好你很理解。

Rebecca: Parsons先生,你想让我什么时候上班?

Mr. Parsons: 昨天,但是做不到,我们希望下个月初你能到岗。
