Keep it on your phone →那是佩德罗在新公司的第一天。他提前二十分钟到达。办公室在河边一栋楼的四楼。有人带他到他的办公桌前,递给他一台笔记本电脑,然后就去开会了。
佩德罗坐了下来。桌面很干净。桌角放着一个陶瓷杯子,里面是空的。他想这也许是一份欢迎礼物。他不喝咖啡,但他有点渴。
他走到小厨房,往杯子里倒了水。回到座位时,一位留着胡子的男士出现在他工位的门口。那位男士看着那个杯子看了好一会儿。
"那是我的杯子,"他说,"我以前坐在这里。"他笑了笑。"没关系,欢迎你加入。我叫迭戈。"
佩德罗脸都红了。他连忙道歉,把杯子递回去。迭戈笑着说:"留着吧,就当是欢迎礼物。不过下次记得先问一下咖啡的事。那台咖啡机比看起来要复杂得多。"
后来,迭戈花了十分钟教他怎么用咖啡机。
