今天的这段对话,在讨论工作,
工作工资有高有低,你做过工资最低的工作是什么
来听今天的讲解:
A: Hey, this is Mike from Singapore.
嗨,我是迈克,来自新加坡。
B: And this is MJ from Korea.
我是MJ,来自韩国。
A: OK, MJ, we are gonna talk about wages. Have you ever worked for minimum wage?
好,MJ,我们来谈谈工资。你有做过领最低工资的工作吗?
B: Actually I haven't really worked, so I didn't earn any money. So, I don't know the definition of the minimum wage and also I didn't get the minimum wage.
实际上我没有真正工作过,所以我没有挣过钱。我不知道最低工资的标准,我也没拿过最低工资。
A: So you don't work, you don't get minimum wage.
所以,你没有工作,没领过最低工资。
B: How about you?
你呢?
A: Let's see...Well, I think in high school, I actually worked for a cleaning company, and I was assigned to a shopping mall as a toilet cleaner.
我想一下,我上高中时在一家清洁公司工作,我被派去一家购物中心打扫厕所。
B: Toilet cleaner?!
洁厕员?
A: Yeah, I worked as a cleaning...or or, let's call it floor supervisor. I prefer that word.
对,我负责打扫……或者我们称之为楼层主管。我更喜欢这个说法。
B: OK.
好。
A: And, so I'm not sure if that was minimum wage, but I thought I...I thought the pay was pretty good. I got about six dollars or seven dollars per hour. Six dollars per hour. But remember this was way back like...probably a decade ago. So I thought it was a pretty good pay.
我不确定那个工作拿的是否是最低工资,不过当时我认为薪水还不错。我每小时的薪资是6美元或7美元。6美元1小时。但是你要知道这是很久以前的事情,大概是10年以前。所以我认为那份工作的薪水很不错。
B: But it could be minimum wage, because it was a hard work. Compare to a hard work and that money, it could be.
不过那可能是最低工资,因为那是辛苦的工作。就辛勤的工作来说,那很可能是最低工资。
A: Well, you are right. I could've been paid...
你说得对。我可能拿的是最低工资。
