忙碌的上班族生活，讲求的是效率和业绩。因此，用电话来安排约会时，记得不要扯得太远。寒暄过后，就可进入正题，表明来意。在确定时间的时候，要注意必须明确地说出见面的时间，如at once, at twelve，而不要说出像in the morning这样的含糊时间。另外，外国人喜欢利用午餐的时间一边用餐，一边轻松地谈生意。这种午餐叫做business lunch。上班族不妨试试看。 (F=foreigner, C=Chinese) F: Hello, Mr. Wang. How are you? What can I do for you? C: I'm fine, thanks. I'd like to make an appointment to discuss our computer. F: Very good. Do you want to come today? C: Yes, if that's possible. F: Let me see……yes, I'm free all afternoon. C: That sounds good. Shall I come at one? F: Why don't you come at noon and we'll have lunch together? C: Fine, I'd like that. I'll see you at twelve then. F: Good. See you then.
