A: Mr. Johnson. Can I have a word with you?B: Oh, Bill. Sure. Come in, please. What is it?A: The workers said that the company had stopped subsidizing the drinks and meals in the company restaurant and had thus resulted in a 50% price increase. The workers are not very happy about it. We want the company to resume the subsidies immediately.B: Look, Bill. You’ve got to understand that the company is having a hard time right now. We have to reduce the costs, or the staff’s salaries will be affected.A: But, according to the contract we signed when we started working here, the subsidized restaurant is part of the terms and conditions of work. I don’t think the workers can accept that. B: I know that, Bill. But things are changing. It is just for the benefits of the company. We have made careful investigations before we make the decision. As far as I know, our staff restaurant is still offering good value for money. In spite of the cuts in subsidies, prices in our restaurant are still similar to those in other companies in the area.A: But I think that the management should have fully consulted the workers before getting the price increase into effect.B: Perhaps this is what we have neglected. Look, Bill. I’ll report what we have just discussed to the Board of Directors and get back to you as soon as possible. Is that all right?A: All right. Thank you, Mr. Johnson. See you.B: See you. Bill.。
