The expediter in the office where I worked would buy needed parts for equipment and make a list of the purchases.Then she would give the paperwork to oar boss—a known stickler for details—for his approval. Un April Fool's Day, the expediter and her co-worker turned in a list including a dress and matching shoes. Our boss took one look at this request for reimbursement and shouted for me to call these two people into his office immediately. Fearing that he wasn't going to take their joke well,they quietly went in to see him.”Look,you two,I' m a busy man !“he deadpanned."I need to know what color dress and what size shoes!”
在我办公室工作的调配员每次需买设备零件时,总要先列个清单,然后把它交给我们的老板—一位很拘泥细节的人,去批准。在愚人节那天,调配员和她的同事递上一张单子,单子上列了一件上衣和一双跑鞋。我们的老板看了看要钱的单子,然后朝我喊,让我把她们俩马上叫到办奋室来。她们担心老板不欣赏她们所开的玩笑,所以进去后一句话也没说。“瞧你们这俩人,我是个忙人,”老板训斥着:“单子上要把上衣的颜色和靯子的尺码列清楚。”
