小企业主的担心
鸭绒25(译)
2024年7月10日
一位刚从商学院毕业的年轻人应聘一份招聘广告上的会计职位。现在,他正在接受一位小企业主的面试。这位小企业主有非常多的事需要担心。
小企业主先发话了。
“我需要一个有会计学位的人。”该企业主说,“不过,主要地说,我是在找一个能替我担心的人。”
“抱歉。我不明白你的意思。”会计说。
“我担心很多事情。”企业主说,“但我不想为钱的事担心。你的工作就是消除我对钱的所有后顾之忧。”
“我明白了。”会计说,“这份工作的薪水是多少?”
“我给你从8万起步。”
“8万美元!”会计喊道,“这么小的企业怎么能负担得起这么高的工资?”
“这,就是你要担心的第一件事。”企业主说。
原文: Nervous Small Business Owner
Fresh out of business school,the young man answered a want ad for an accountant。Now he was being interviewed by a very nervous man who ran a small business that he had started himself。
“I need someone with an accounting degree。”the man said,“But mainly,I'm looking for someone to do my worrying for me。”
“Excuse me?”the accountant said。
“I worry about a lot of things。”the man said,“But I don't want to have to worry about money。Your job will be to take all the money worries off my back。”
“I see。”the accountant said,“And how much does the job pay?”
“I'll start you at eighty thousand。”
“Eighty thousand dollars!”the accountant exclaimed,“How can such a small business afford a sum like that?”
“That,”the owner said,“is your first worry。”
