3.03.4 办公室恋情

M: Hey, Jenny. Would you like to go to dinner with me?

W: I don't know. You know what they say about office romances.

M: No, I don't. What do they say about office romances?

W: They say you shouldn't mix love and work.

M: That's silly. What I do on my own time is no one else’s business. Besides, it's pretty hard to meet people outside of the office when we spend long hours here.

W: You’ve got a point. Once I dated one of my supervisors and all of my co-workers accused him of favoritism. Then when the relationship went bad, he fired me.

M: People fall in love with people they work with. That's a fact.

W: That may be true, but I don't want an inter-office relationship to affect my productivity.

M: If it does, it will only make you more productive, because we can support each other.

W: You are sounding like we are already married.

M: Good grief. All I did was ask you out. I am sorry.

W: Well, I don't feel right about it.

M: I am talking about dinner tonight, not a lifetime.

W: Most starts with dinner, but then it gets out of hand. Besides, haven't you asked out every woman in the entire office?

M: I like company.

W: Company? I heard about you from Linda. She said you were an octopus!

M: What can I say? I am a passionate guy.

W: Well, I hope you can find something else to be passionate about.

M: You want to go out with me and you know it.

W: In your dreams. Now if you don't mind, I've got some work to do.

M: Ok, I get the message. Hey, do you have any sisters?
