1 .Good morning everyone. My name's Joy Parkins and I'm the restaurant manager.
大家早上好,我的名字是Joy Perkins,我是餐馆经理。
2 .And I understand that none of you've had any previous experience as kitchen assistants.
我明白你们中没有人此前有过做厨房助理的经验。
3 .Well, you might be feeling a bit nervous now, but most of our kitchen assistants say they enjoy the work.
也许你们现在感觉有点紧张,但我们这大多数的厨房助理都说他们很享受这个工作。
4 .OK, they might get shouted at sometimes, but it's nothing personal, and they're pleased that they have so many different things to do, which means they never get bored.
没错,也许他们有时候会被吼,但那并非是针对个人的,而且他们也为自己有这么多不同的事情做而高兴,那意味着他们绝不会无聊。
5 .And I'll tell you straightaway that if you do well, we might think about moving you up and giving you some more responsibility.
而且我可以直接告诉你们,如果你做得好,我们可以考虑给你升职,让你承担更多的责任。
6 .Right, well, you've all shown up on time, which is an excellent start.
嗯,你们都准时到了,这是一个很好的开始。
7 .Now I'm glad to see none of you have unsuitable footwear, so that's good - you need to be careful as the floors can get very wet and slippery.
我很高兴看到没有人穿着不合适的鞋子,这很好 - 你们得小心,因为地板可能会变得非常湿滑。
8 .Those of you with long hair have got it well out of the way, but some of you'll need to remove your rings and bracelets - just put them somewhere safe for today, and remember to leave them at home tomorrow, as they can be a safety hazard.
你们中有长发的都没有让头发碍事,但有些人需要摘下戒指和手镯,今天就把它们放在一个安全的地方,明天要记得把它们放家里,因为它们可能成为安全隐患。
9 .Now it's going to be a busy day for you all today - we don't have any tables free for this evening, and only a few for lunch.
对你们来说,今天将是繁忙的一天 - 今晚都没有空闲的桌子了,中午也只剩下不多。
10 .Fortunately we've got our Head Chef back - he was away on holiday all last week which meant the other chefs had extra work.
幸运的是,我们的厨师长回来了 - 他上周都在休假,这也意味着别的主厨得做额外的工作。
11 .Now, I'll tell you a bit more about the job in a minute but first, some general regulations.
接下来一分钟,我会告诉你们多一些关于工作的事,但首先得说说一些基本章程。
12 .For all of you, whatever your age, there's some equipment you mustn't use until you've been properly trained, like the waste disposal system for example, for health and safety reasons.
你们所有人,无论年龄多大,有些器具只能在你们接受了适当训练之后才能使用,比如废物处理系统,这是出于因为卫生和安全原因。
13 .Then I think there are two of you here who are under 18 - that's Emma and Jake, isn't it?
我知道你们之中有两位还不满18岁,是Emma和Jake对吧?
14 .Right. so for you two, the meat slicer is out of bounds.
对你们两个而言,切肉机是在可使用范围之外的。
15 .And of course none of you are allowed to use the electric mixer until you've been shown how it works.
当然,也只有在你们了解了电动搅拌机怎么工作之后才能被允许使用它。
16 .Now you may have heard that this can be a stressful job, and I have to say that can be true.
你们也许听说过这会是个很有压力的工作,我不得不说这可能是真的。
17 .You'll be working an eight-hour day for the first week, though you'll have the chance to do overtime after that as well if you want to.
第一周,你们每天工作8小时,不过如果你想的话,你也有机会在一周后加班。
18 .But however long the hours are, you'll get a break in the middle.
不过无论工作时间多长,你都可以在中间休息一下。
19 .What you will find is that you're on your feet all day long, lifting and carrying, so if you're not fit now you soon will be!
你们将会发现自己一整天都是站着,搬搬抬抬,所以如果你现在还不够强健,那你很快就会的。
20 .You'll find you don't have much chance to take it easy - when someone tells you to do something you need to do it straightaway - but at least we do have a very efficient air conditioning system compared with some kitchens.
你们会发现自己没多少机会放松,当有人叫你做事时,你得立即去做。但跟别的厨房相比,我们至少有着非常高效的空调系统。
第二段
1 .Now let me tell you about some of the people you need to know.
现在我来告诉你们一些你们需要认识的人。
2 .So as I said, I'm Joy Parkins and I decide who does what during the day and how long they work for.
我之前说过,我叫Joy Perkins,由我决定一天中由谁做什么工作以及做多久。
3 .I'll be trying to get you to work with as many different people in the kitchen as possible, so that you learn while you're on the job.
我会尽量让你们跟厨房里尽可能多的不同的人一起工作,这样你们就能在工作里学到东西。
4 .One person whose name you must remember is David Field.
有一个人,他的名字你们一定要记住,他就是David Field。
5 .If you injure yourself at all, even if it's really minor, you must report to him and he'll make sure the incident is recorded and you get the appropriate treatment.
如果你们弄伤了自己,即使是很轻微的伤,也要跟他报告,这样他就能确保记录下受伤事件,确保你们得到适当的处理。
6 .He's trained to give basic treatment to staff himself, or he'll send you off somewhere else if necessary.
他接受过训练,可以对员工进行基本的伤情处理,或者有必要的话,他会把你们送到别处去。
7 .Then there's Dexter Wills - he's the person you need to see if you smash a plate or something like that.
接下来是Dexter Wills - 如果你们打碎了盘子之类的东西,他就是你们要见的人。
8 .Don't just leave it and hope no one will notice - it's really important to get things noted and replaced or there could be problems later.
不要不管不顾,希望没人注意。让打碎的东西被注意到并被更换是非常重要的,否则可能会有后续的问题。
9 .And finally, there's Mike Smith.
最后,你们得认识Mike Smith。
10 .He's the member of staff who takes care of all the stores of perishables, so if you notice we're getting low in flour or sugar or something, make sure you let him know so he can put in an order.
他也是咱们员工中的一员,由他照看所有易耗品的库存情况,所以如果你注意到我们的面粉或糖或者别的什么东西变少了,要确保让他知道,这样他就能去订货了。
11 .OK, now the next thing ...
好的,下面一件事情...
