在工作中要敢于向主管提出自己的意见、建议、主管很可能对你的想法赞赏有加；即便没有被采纳，主管也会注意到你并欣赏你的勇气。当然，要注意提问的时机。

B: Let me see... Looking at this, if my calculations are correct, we are about five thousand dollars over budget.
我看看……看状况，假如我算得没错，我们大约比预算多出了5000美金。
A: That's right. It's going to cost about five thousand more to complete the first order.
是的。大约要多花5000美金来完成第一批订单。
B: I see...
我明白了……
A: But if sales go as well as they should, that's still we within our profit margin. Proceeds from sales of the first order will easily cover the cost of the second order.

B: Ok. Well, you know, all major budget decisions must be approved by our CEO and the financial offer.
好的，你知道，所有主要的预算决策需要经过首席执行官及财务主管的批准。
A: Yes, I know. But I thought that if I could get your support first, it might make getting approval easier.
是的，我知道。只是我觉得如果我能先取得你的支持可能会比较容易得到批准。
B: Well, you've got my support on this. I'll see what I can do to get the top brass to agree.
嗯，你已经得到我的支持了。我会看看有什么方法可以让高层主管同意。
