对话文本
A: We are going to need confirmation on these orders today, and delivery must be made before next Tuesday. Do you think you can handle that?

B: We are willing to work with you, but do you think it would be possible to extend your confirmation deadline? We need to check the warehouse to make sure the products are in stock. The earliest I will be to get back to you is tomorrow morning.

A: No, I must know today because we have to go to press for the advertisements. Is there anyway you can speed up the process of checking inventory?

B: We can do that, but it will cost.... If we have to check our inventory with all our guys on overtime, you're looking at an increased cost of, I'd say, maybe 10%.

A: Are you kidding?

B: No, and let me tell you why…. If I make my guys stay over to check the inventory, I'll have to pay them at an overtime rate, which is time and a half. I estimate it will probably take 3 guys two hours to finish, that will be an increase on your labor fee by at least 10%...if you need the numbers that urgently, I can have them do it. Otherwise, we can wait until tomorrow morning, and I'll call you with the numbers after they're done. It's your call...

参考翻译
我们打算今天对这些订单再确认一下,下周二之前一定要把货送到.你认为能处理好这一切吗?
我们愿意和你一起合作,但你看有没有可能把确定的最后期限延长一下?我们需要对库房进行检查以确保这些产品都有货.我最早能在明天早上把信息反馈给你.
不行,因为我们要发布广告信息,所以我今天必须知道结果.你有什么办法尽快核对完存货吗?
我们可以完成,但得需要费用……我认为我们所有员工加班清点库存的话,你要考虑增加费用,大概是10%.
你开玩笑吧?
不是开玩笑,你来告诉你为什么…如果我让我的手下加班清点库存,我得付他们加班费,即相当于原工资一倍半的加班费.我估计这大概需要3个小伙子干2个小时才能完成,那就意味着你要付的劳务费至少增加10%...如果你急于要这些数字的话,我可以让他们去做.否则,我们就等到明天早上,他们数完之后我给你打电话,你决定吧.
