#1
Hey, Alex. You're settling into the new office all right, I hope?
嘿，Alex。你适应新办公室的情况还好吧，我希望是如此？
#2
Oh, hi, Tom. Yeah, it's been a whirlwind, honestly. I'm still figuring out which floor the good coffee is on.
喔，嗨，汤姆。是啊，老实说，这阵子简直像一阵旋风一样忙乱。我还在摸索好喝的咖啡在哪一层楼呢。
#3
Third floor, east wing—trust me, it's worth the pilgrimage. So, how was your weekend?
三楼东翼——相信我，这趟“朝圣”绝对值得。对了，你周末过得如何？
#4
Pretty low-key, actually. I explored the neighbourhood a bit—found a ramen place that's absurdly good.
其实还算平淡。我稍微逛了一下附近——发现了一家拉面店，好吃到夸张。
#5
Oh, you'll have to share the name. I'm always on the lookout for a decent lunch spot around here.
噢，你一定要跟我分享店名。我一直在寻找这附近不错的午餐地点。
#6
Absolutely. We should grab lunch there sometime this week, if your schedule permits.
当然好。如果你的行程允许，我们这周找个时间一起去那里吃午餐吧。
#7
I'd be up for that. Wednesday looks fairly open on my end. By the way, have you been looped in on the Meridian project yet?
我很乐意。周三我这边的时间看起来还算空。对了，你被纳入 Meridian 项目的讨论了吗？
#8
Only tangentially. I heard it's been a bit of a moving target in terms of scope.
只有间接参与。我听说在范畴方面，这一直有点像是一个变动的目标。
#9
That's putting it diplomatically. We've had three scope revisions in as many weeks, which is par for the course with this client.
那是委婉的说法。我们在短短三周内就进行了三次范畴修订，这对这位客户来说是常有的事。
#10
Sounds like it'll keep us on our toes. I'm keen to contribute, though—fresh eyes and all that.
听起来这会让我们保持警觉。不过我很渴望能有所贡献——毕竟我有新视角之类的优势。
#11
That's exactly the attitude we need. I'll pull you into the next stakeholder briefing so you can hit the ground running.
那正是我们需要的态度。我会把你拉进下一次的利益相关者简报会，好让你能够迅速上手。
#12
Brilliant, I appreciate that. Oh, and have you noticed the weather lately? It can't seem to make up its mind.
太棒了，我很感激。喔，还有你最近有注意到天气吗？它似乎拿不定主意。
#13
Tell me about it. I dressed for spring this morning and got ambushed by a downpour on the way in.
可不是吗。我今天早上穿得像春天一样，结果在来的路上被一场倾盆大雨给突袭了。
#14
Same here—I've learned to keep a spare jacket in my desk drawer, just in case.
我也一样——我已经学会在抽屉里放一件备用外套，以防万一。
#15
Wise man. All right, I'd better get back to it. Wednesday lunch—it's a date. I'll swing by your desk around noon.
聪明。好啦，我该回去工作了。周三午餐——就这么定了。我中午左右会去你座位找你。
#16
Perfect. Looking forward to it, Tom. Catch you later.
太好了。我很期待，Tom。待会见。
