英语情景对话

A:I am really exhausted, you know, I have been working without the weekend for two weeks. My boss always asks us to work overtime.

A:我真的筋疲力尽了，你知道吗，我已经有两周周末都在上班了。我的老板总叫我们加班。

B:Does your boss pay you for the over-time work?

B:那你们老板给不给你们加班费？

A:No. But he provides free meals and sometimes gives us some small gifts. Many of us get very tired of this, and we'd rather have weekends than stay in the office.

A:不给。但是他给我们免费供餐，有时候还送点小礼物给我们。我们很多人都不喜欢这样，我们情愿要周末也不想留在办公室加班。

B:他应该知道这样做是违反我们国家《劳动法》的。根据我国的《劳动法》规定，员工节假日被要求加班则必须得到双份工资。

A:We all know about that, but we have no choice. The chairman of the trade union says he is going to negotiate with the management.

A:我们都知道，可就是没办法。工会主席说要和老板谈谈。

B:I suggest that you go to the lawyers' office to get some help.

B:我建议你们去律师事务所求助。

A:That's a good idea. I think we will soon come to a solution to the problem.

A:达倒是个好主意。我想很快我们就有解决办法了。
