Woman: Huh, yeah, they did change those bus schedule sometimes. It's inconvenient. So what are you gonna do?

I'd start late in the afternoon and then work till around midnight. And there is a bus that could get me there on time.
我可以下午晚一点开始上班,然后一直工作到半夜。有一趟车可以让我准时到那儿。
Woman: That sounds good. So you could just take a later bus to your job.

Man: Yeah, the only thing is if I worked late at night, I'll be really tired and I have class early the next morning.
男:对,唯一的问题是,如果我工作到半夜的话,我会很累的,而且第二天上午很早还有课。

女:嗯,也许不错啊,而且还能锻炼身体,只不过天气不好的话,骑车会有点不舒服。
Man: Yeah, I'll have to think about it.
