商用英語

S: I can’t believe the CEO picked Nelson to be the office manager.

B: I know! It’s so unfair.

S: I agree. But, he’s been here a lot longer than both of us.

B: That might be true, but I don’t think his marketing proposal was very good. Yours was way better, in my opinion.

S: You really think so?

B: Yeah. After your presentation, I fully expected the boss to pick you for the position.

S: That’s nice of you to say so. I actually felt the same way about your presentation. You’ve got a talent for speaking, and your marketing idea was really clever.

B: Oh, you’re just trying to cheer me up.

S: No, I’m serious. I really thought you could get that promotion.

B: Thank you. Do you think Nelson will do a good job as manager?

S: I’m not sure. He’ll probably do fine, but it’ll be strange with him as our boss.

B: Tell me about it.

S: Hey, why don’t we go get lunch together?

B: Sounds good. We can chat more about our marketing plans.

S: You can say that again. I think the CEO might still use some of our ideas.

    B: He did seem interested in some of the things we said.
