🗣️ 情境對話 Dialogue
場景:週二早上,Amy 剛發現寄給客戶的報價單用了舊版數字;主管 Kevin 拿著手機走過來,客戶已經回信問了。
Kevin: Amy, got a sec? The client's asking why the prices in your quote don't match.
(Amy,有空嗎?客戶在問妳報價單上的價格怎麼對不上。)
Amy: Oh no. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry.
(喔不。對不起,真的很對不起,非常抱歉。(連說三次 sorry,聽起來慌了,也沒講要怎麼處理))
Kevin: Hey, it's okay. Take a breath. What happened?
(嘿,沒關係。先深呼吸。發生什麼事?)
Amy: Okay. That's on me. I used last month's price sheet by mistake.
(好。這是我的責任。我不小心用了上個月的價目表。)
Kevin: Got it. These things happen. Can we fix it today?
(了解。這種事難免。今天能修正嗎?)
Amy: Yes. I'll send the corrected quote by noon and copy you on it.
(可以。我中午前寄出修正版報價單,也會 cc 給你。)
Kevin: Perfect. Should we say anything to the client?
(很好。要跟客戶說些什麼嗎?)
Amy: I'll write to them directly. Something like, I apologize for the confusion, please see the updated version attached.
(我直接寫信給他們。大概是:造成困擾很抱歉,請參考附件的更新版本。)
Kevin: That works. And honestly, you handled that well. Way better than the three sorries.
