Apprentice interview
"Well Jim, you can approach my desk now. I have done an appraisal of your application to be my apprentice, and I have a few questions for you. You don't seem to have any apparent experience in working with large aquatic appliances. You do know that the aquariums I clean and make are not for goldfish or restaurant shelves, right?"
"Ummm. You mean you can put minnows in them too?"
"No. I mean they put sharks, manta rays, whales, and seals in them! Well, I applaud your effort and appreciate your coming across town for this interview, but you don’t have the experience or aptitude that is usually required for this type of apprenticeship. I just can't approve hiring you."
"Thank you, sir.” I am very appreciative of your apt assessment of my qualifications. But
I believe you are wrong and I would like to appeal, uhhh, to you to give me approval to at least be your apprentice for an approximate test period. I know I don't know anything about aquariums. I don't even know an approximate amount of information about them! I come from the desert where arable land is a rare thing. But that's why I came to California, to work with water, sir. And I know you approve of determination. Well sir, I have that and I hope you will give me a try."
"Hmmm. Okay Jimmy, I'11 take a risk and give you a try. I will appoint you for a three-month test period. We' 11 take a look at how you' re doing in three months and go from there."
"Thank you, sir! You won't be disappointed!"
“好了，吉姆，现在你可以到我的桌子这儿来了。我已经对你要求作我学徒的申请做了评估，现在我要问你几个问题。你好像明显没有任何使用大型水生器械的经验。你一定知道我清理和制造的水族箱不是用来养金鱼或是用来放在餐厅搁架上的，对吧?”
“嗯，您是说里面也可以放些小鱼吗?”
“不，我的意思是里边放鲨鱼、蝠鲼、鲸鱼和海豹。对，我对你的努力表示欢迎，也感谢你跑过来面试，可是你不具备这份学徒工作通常要求的经验和才能。我实在不能批准雇用你。”
“谢谢您，先生。您对我的资格做出了恰当的评价，我对此表示感激。但是我确信您错了，我恳求您准许我成为您的学徒，至少让我干大约一个试用期的时间。我知道自己对水族箱知之甚少，甚至连大致了解都算不上。我来自沙漠地区，那里可耕种的土地非常稀少。但这正是我来到加州的原因，要找个和水有关的工作，先生。我也知道您认可做事有决心的人。先生，我有决心，希望您能让我尝试一下。”
“嗯，好吧，吉米，我就冒险让你尝试一下，任命你干三个月的试用期。我们要看看你在这三个月内干得如何，然后再做打算。”
“谢谢您，先生，您不会失望的。”
看是什么工作?
