英语流利说 Level 4 Unit3 Part1 Dialogue Quitting a Job

I hear you lost your job.

Is that right?

Yes, that's right.

I quit.

I quit because of the way my boss treats people.

What happened?

I wasn't feeling good one day, and he yelled at me.

When I told him not to yell at me, he threaten me.

Is that all?

That's what bosses do.

Sure, sometimes maybe.

But my boss treated everyone badly, and I was tired of it.

It was the last straw.

The last straw?

Yes, you know, it reached the point where I couldn't take it anymore.

I see.

So now you don't have a job?

Right, I don't have a job.

But at least I don't have to deal with my boss anymore.

What are you going to do now?

To be honest, I'm not sure, but I'll find something.

I'll get a job, even if it pays less than before.

Are you sorry you quit?

Yes, and no.

I guess I should have found another job first, and then quit.

Why didn't you?

As I said, he push me too far.

There are some things that I just won't take.

What about your wife?

She isn't happy that I don't have a job, but she understands.

She knows I have a temper.

And she knows I wasn't happy working there.

Well, I guess I'm lucky.

My job isn't great, but I like the people I'm working with, and I like my manager.

Are you planning to stay there?

I don't know.

For now it's OK, but of course it all depends on how things change.

Well if you hear of any job openings, let me know, OK?

Sure, send me your resume, and I'll let people know you're looking.

Thanks.
