I'm so hungry. Let me have a look at the menu.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
We can pig out on potato chips and cookies. They are very cheap.<|im_end|> |

Our company is going to do some cutbacks soon.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Really? Where did you hear that?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I met with the supervisor just this morning. I don't know, but I am a little worried. Who do you think will get sacked?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I'm not sure... well, first, it couldn't be George. He is such a kiss-ass. He'd wash the boss's dog if he asked.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
No, it's not going to be George. I don't think it's Andy either. He is involved with the boss's sister in-law. And you know how whipped our boss is.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's true. What about Lisa? I bet there's nobody who could do a worse job than her.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Lisa? No way. I've heard a rumor that she and the boss were having an affair. You know rumors can't come out from nowhere.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Well, okay. Then there is still Michael. But he's the boss'pet after having the best sales record for three months in a row. It definitely won't be Michael.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
No, that would be crazy. But then who will it be? Oh dear, it must be me. I should have known it! Why else would he have talked to me alone about the downsizing. What should I do? I've got a family to support.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Well, it could be me too. But I am not too worried. This place is suffocating me with this boss being such a hard-ass and colleagues who barely know how to get dressed in the morning. It would almost be a blessing to be fired from this place.<|im_end|> |

A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
How do I make a good impression in the interview?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You should try to put your best foot forward, and be careful of your personal appearance. At least you should get yourself dressed up. Appearance isnt everything, but it's the first thing an interviewer notices about you.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Anything else?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Don't boast and don't be modest.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What do you mean by this? You can't do the two things at the same time.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Appear confident and show the interviewers that you're competent. Don't exaggerate things or you'll give the impression that you're talking big.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I see.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Try to be natural, alert and interested.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
You'Ve given me very valuable advice and I have more confidence in myself now. Thank you very much.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
My pleasure. Good luck to you.<|im_end|> |

Jason. There's a snag in the plans for the Hoover Center.<|im_end|>

What's wrong? I thought everything was set.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, it was. But the contractor's just told me he's not going to be able to finish by the twentieth, as planned.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Maybe we could work out an overtime schedule. It's definitely worth it to finish by the twentieth.<|im_end|> |

How were you getting along with your studies?<|im_end|>

Quite well. I made good records in college. I won the scholarship in every semester.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
In addition to your major, did you have other fields to study?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Yes, I had taken finance courses in a training school. Compound talents are needed in the society and I must study continually to keep abreast with the times.<|im_end|> |

The tea smells good. What tea is it?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
It's a special green tea named Longing Tea from Zhejiang province.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What's special about it except its pleasant smell?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You can see that it keeps the original color of the tea leaves very well.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
They must have some special methods to do this during the process.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Probably. I love green tea. It's one of my daily necessities.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Then, do you have “ tea time ” every day? I mean, do you drink tea at a settled time?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Not really. But I really love to have after-meal tea.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What's the advantage about tea?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
There are a lot of them. In hot or warm days, tea helps to dispel the heat and brings on an instant cool with a feeling of relaxation. Moreover, the tea leaves contain a number of chemicals which are good for people's health.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Does that mean the stronger the better?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
No. Constant drinking of over-strong tea would do harm to people's health. So don't make your tea too strong.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Got it. What's the proper time for tea?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
It's fine for most time of the day. But don't have tea before bedtime.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Why?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
It will give rise to occasional insomnia. OK, let's enjoy the tea before it gets cold.<|im_end|> |

Next please! Hello sir, may I see your passport please?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, here you go.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Will you be checking any bags today.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, I'd like to check three pieces.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm sorry, sir. Airline policy allows only two pieces of checked luggage, at twenty kilograms each, plus one piece of carry-on luggage. I will have to charge you extra for the additional suitcase.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight! I'm flying sixteen thousand CMS! How am I supposed to only take two, twenty kilo bags? That'absurd!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I am sorry, sir, there's nothing I can do. You cannot board the flight with that large bag either.Carry - on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or under your seat. That bag is clearly too big.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Now I see. You charge next to nothing for an international ticket, but when it comes to charging for any other small thing, you charge an arm and a leg! So tell me, miss, how much will I have to pay for all of this.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Let's see... six hundred and twenty-five US dollars.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
That's more than my round-trip ticket!<|im_end|> |

Hi, Mr. Brown, we have visited the factories and I'm very satisfied with your factories production conditions.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, they are our main export bases of tools with the advantage of having good production experience and long historical record. All their products enjoy high prestige in the world market.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That's very good. But I have little knowledge about the packing of your pliers. I just want to know the details about that.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Ok, I'll show you how the packing is like. We have a showroom on the ground floor. Let's go downstairs and have a look.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Sure.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
These are the various kinds of packing for pliers. Normally, we have three types of packing<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Oh, the packing looks very nice.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
The skin packing is the most advanced packing for this product in the world market. It catches the eyes and can help push sales.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Good, what about the export packing?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Well, they are packed in boxes of two dozens each, 100 boxes to a wooden case.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Is the wooden case strong enough for transportation? You see, 100 boxes of pliers are very heavy. It's about 2,400 kilograms.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You can rest assured of that. So far, no customers have complained about our outer packing.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm glad to hear that. By the way, do you accept neutral packing?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, we can pack the goods according to your instructions.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Very good. Ok, Mr. Brown, I'm now totally satisfied with your packing. You can execute our first order now, and I will open the L / C immediately after I return to Taipei.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
All right. We'll make the shipment as soon as your L / C is on hand.<|im_end|> |

You can have a different carpet, but you have to pay more if it costs more.<|im_end|>

How much more would it cost to upgrade?<|im_end|>

It could vary quite a bit, between 2 and 10 dollars per square yard.<|im_end|>

I would like to ask for one day off next week. Do you think the manager will agree? I know it is the busy time for our company, but I do have some important things to handle.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Well, it is hard to say. At least you need to come up with a good reason.<|im_end|>

Actually, it is my mother's wedding. My parents divorced many years ago. Now she is ready to establish a new family. It is a special occasion. I'Ve got to be there, right?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Yes, you should be there. Go find the manager and ask. I think the manager will understand and approve you a day off. Don't forget to fill in the leave application form. It will be signed by the manager for approval.<|im_end|> |

Hi, I would like to purchase a one way ticket to Brussels, please.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Certainly sir, this is our train schedule. We have an express train departing every morning and an overnight train that departs at nine pm.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
How long does it take to get there?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
About twelve hours. We currently have tickets available only for first class on the express train. If you'd like, you can choose a sleeper on the overnight train which is a bit less expensive.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yeah, I think that is the best option. Do you serve food on the train? Twelve hours is such a long time!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, of course. There is a dining car towards the front of the train where they serve meals at all times. We do provide complimentary water and coffee for all of our passengers.<|im_end|>

Great! I'll take it.<|im_end|>

Here you are sir. Your train leaves from platform number nine at nine on the dot. Remember to be here at least thirty minutes before your scheduled departure time or else you might miss your train!<|im_end|>

Oh no! Evaluations! You can tell that's not my favorite job; I haven't even started yet. When is the deadline for turning in thecompleted forms?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, you do still have three weeks. But remember the employee must sign them, too. Filling them in is nothing - it's meetingwith the employees that takes so much time.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I never know how to rate the employees'work. Of course attendance and productivity are easy, I just look at the sales figures.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
So it's the subjective criteria like team building and colleague support that you find hard?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Exactly! Attitude... how do you rate attitude?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I suggest letting each employee fill out his or her own evaluation for those items. Then, based on their self - assessment, you can add your comments. It's a great starting point for discussion<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Great idea. And after all, that's the whole point of an evaluation. I almost can't wait to give it a try.<|im_end|> |

Why did you leave your last position?<|im_end|>

Oh dear! Where should I go from here?<|im_end|> |

May I see your ticket and passport, please?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Sure. Here they are.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Please put your baggage on the scale.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
What's the weight limit?<|im_end|>

I think I've got a virus on my computer. Do you know how to get rid of it? I haven't had one before.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
I'm afraid not. Why don't you call the Help Desk? Someone there will be able to help you.<|im_end|> |

I would like to order some internet today.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
What kind would you like?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What kind of internet is there?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You can get DEL or dial-up.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Which of those two is best?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I would recommend DEL.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
So that one better?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
It's better because it doesn't tie up the phone.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What do you mean by that?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
DEL isn't connected through your phone line, but dial-up is.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
So then I can't use my phone if I'm on the internet?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
That's correct. With DEL you can do both.<|im_end|> |

Hi there. How can I help?<|im_end|>

I started a new job last month and I'm expecting my first salary.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I see. And your company has a Wage Distribution Service Agreement with us?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
So I was told, yes. They gave me this book?<|im_end|> |

My printer is broken. Can you print up a copy for me?<|im_end|>

Sure, no problem. Do you want me to edit it for you?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Please, you write much better than I do.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Were you late for work this morning?<|im_end|>

Yes, I was. I was almost an hour late.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What did you say to your boss?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I said I was terribly sorry. But he said it was quite all right.<|im_end|>

Your boss was really nice.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
No, he didn't scold me because he was late, too.<|im_end|> |

Hello!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Is Petti there?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm sorry, I'm afraid you've dialed the wrong number. There is no Petti here.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Wrong number? Are you sure? I called yesterday and she was there.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm sure you have the wrong number. This one has been my number for more than 20 years.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's impossible. I remember the number clearly. Isn't this 763-4565?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
No, It isn't. It's 736-4565. It seems you've misdialed.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Really? I'm so sorry I bothered you. I'll try again.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That's all right. This sort of thing happens all the time to everyone.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Yeah. I guess it does. Sorry again for bothering you.<|im_end|> |
