Narrator: Hi I'm Neil. Thanks for joining me on English at Work - a new series of programmes
0:13
set in an office, full of top tips to help you
0:16
learn some useful business language which you
0:19
could use in the workplace.
0:21
In the next few minutes you can join me on an introductory tour around one of London's
0:26
biggest imitation plastic fruit manufacturers, called Tip Top Trading. We're going to hear
0:34
from some of the employees that work so hard to keep the business running smoothly.
0:39
So come on then! Let's step into the office and eavesdrop on Tip Top Trading's possible
0:45
newest recruit. I say 'possible' because she is still being interviewed for the job of Sales Executive
0:56
Anna: Firstly, this job is an ideal match for my skills and experience: I've spent
1:01
several years working in sales and I get on with people easily. Well, I
1:07
mean, apart from the ones I don't like of course! Secondly, I know Tip Top
1:12
Trading is one of the fastest-growing companies in London, and I want to
1:16
be part of that.
1:17
Paul: That's absolutely right. Tip Top Trading is the fastest-growing company in
1:22
the plastic fruits sector.
1:24
Narrator: Well said, Anna! If she gets that job I'm sure she'll be an asset to the company.
1:31
The decision is in the hands of Manager, Paul, who we heard there. He's a nice guy really,
1:37
a little disorganised, but when things go wrong he's got to take charge a bit like this
1:43
Paul: Yesterday was not a great day. Two clients came in with serious
1:48
complaints. Mrs Kumquat received a delivery of imitation bananas that
1:53
were purple - not very convincing, and Mr Lime ordered grapefruits, but
1:59
got pineapples. Tom!
2:01
Tom: Yeah, listen...
2:02
Paul: Were you responsible for these errors?
2:05
Tom: Well... yes, but -
2:07
Paul: Look, mistakes happen. But it seems that Mrs Kumquat left our offices
2:12
even angrier than when she came in and she says she will never use Tip
2:16
Top Trading again!
2:18
Tom: I tried my best.
2:20
Paul: Hmmm.
2:21
Narrator: Ah yes, Tom! I hadn't warned you about Tom, one of the company's top Sales
2:27
Executives - he's good...
2:29
Tom: (on phone) Tom speaking. Yah! Frankie! So what's the latest, are we on?
2:34
... but his interpersonal skills need working on. Listen to this!
2:38
Tom: My computer has crashed. I've lost my phone. And there's a big, BIG
2:45
problem with my timetable. I have two meetings scheduled at the same
2:50
time with two extremely important clients. I can't do them both at once!
2:56
See what I mean! Now, every office needs a good office assistant - and Tip Top Trading
3:02
is no exception. It's got Denise, who's there to assist, organise and sometimes make the tea...
3:10
Denise: Oh sorry excuse me, here's your tea
3:14
Paul.
3:15
Paul: Thanks Denise.
3:17
Narrator: But goodness! She likes to talk...
3:20
Denise: Really! 'Denise do this! Denise do that!' I'm telling you Sharon, I've almost
3:25
had enough! I get treated like I'm some kind of servant!
3:30
Narrator: That's Denise! I think we'll just leave the office now and let them get on with
3:36
their work
3:37
So that's Tip Top Trading. There are plenty of other people we'll meet along the way...
3:42
so go on, why don't you join me for English at Work from bbclearningenglish.com. See ya!
