Transcript

Luke

You're listening to a dialogue in English with Dialogue Frog. So, I'm starting a new job.

Emma

Whoa! Wow!

Luke

Mm hm. It's true.

Emma

Congratulations.

Luke

Thanks.

Emma

That's amazing.

Luke

Mm hm.

Emma

I'm going to buy you a cake.

Luke

I'm gonna eat that cake.

Emma

It's a deal.

Luke

Oh, yeah.

Emma

So, this is- this is awesome. So, first you submitted an application online or?

Luke

Yeah and then I went in for an interview and then I got the job, so.

Emma

Wow.

Luke

Yeah.

Emma

That- normally it isn't that easy. So, how- how did the interview go? I know when- when I do interviews, I get pretty nervous, especially 'cause it's probably your- your new boss who you're talking to you and you want to impress them.

Luke

Mm hm.

Emma

How- how did your interview go?

Luke

Uh, it went really smoothly. They basically said, 'When can you start?' And-

Emma

That's the ideal.

Luke

I'm like, 'Well, I need some time to eat my cake.' So.

Emma

Yeah. So, you gave him like 10 minutes or...?

Luke

That and then I said, 'If you could fire me, and then rehire me, so I get a second cake. That would be ideal.'

Emma

It might be easier if- if we just buy you a second cake.

Luke

Oh. I guess.

Emma

Yeah. Well still, that's really exciting.

Luke

Mm hm.

Emma

Congratulations.

Luke

Yep. Thanks.

Emma

So, are you- are you nervous about anything, about like, when you go into a new workplace, sometimes you don't know like your colleagues and stuff. So are- are you nervous for uh, meeting your new colleagues?

Luke

Uh, yeah, a little bit, but it'll be fine.

Emma

That'll be good. All right. Well, this has been another dialogue in English with Dialogue Frog.
