Hey, Robert!

00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:14.500
Hi, Lawrence! Fancy meeting you here!

00:00:14.950 --> 00:00:17.450
It's been a long time since I last saw you.

00:00:17.450 --> 00:00:19.500
What have you been up to these days?

00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:23.747
You know, my company is engaged in import and export of commodities,

00:00:23.747 --> 00:00:26.200
so I am really busy at the moment.

00:00:26.200 --> 00:00:27.600
Too busy to play basketball?

00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:28.523
Exactly.

00:00:28.523 --> 00:00:30.915
I have to spend a lot of time on the weekends

00:00:30.915 --> 00:00:34.300
surfing the internet to search for relevant information.

00:00:34.300 --> 00:00:37.350
The job is is pretty demanding and I have to learn a lot.

00:00:37.350 --> 00:00:41.000
I can imagine that. So, what is your typical workday like?

00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:44.441
Generally, I get up at 6:00 for breakfast,

00:00:44.441 --> 00:00:48.600
then hurry to catch the bus and change to the subway train.

00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:51.850
I usually arrive at the office at 8:45.

00:00:51.850 --> 00:00:54.600
The first thing I do is check my e-mails.

00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:59.300
Then, I contact the Customer Service Department for relevant information.

00:00:59.300 --> 00:01:01.826
After that, I look for potential customers

00:01:01.826 --> 00:01:05.600
from various channels and prepare reports for my superior.

00:01:05.600 --> 00:01:11.200
Sometimes, I pay visits to customers with my colleagues.

00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:13.398
We have a regular meeting every day

00:01:13.398 --> 00:01:17.583
to find solutions to problems and ways to exploit new markets.

00:01:17.583 --> 00:01:22.763
I like brainstorming within the department and during coffee breaks.

00:01:22.895 --> 00:01:28.034
Oh, my God! It sounds like a real grind, all work and no play.

00:01:28.034 --> 00:01:29.976
But I don't think I'm a drudge.

00:01:29.976 --> 00:01:32.080
I'm making progress every day, 

00:01:32.080 --> 00:01:33.942
and it's fun to communicate with people.

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.131
And I'm also trying to chill out. So here I am.

00:01:37.131 --> 00:01:38.795
Ah, it's good to have you back.

00:01:38.795 --> 00:01:41.700
Sports can help you relax and take your mind off work.

00:01:41.700 --> 00:01:44.700
You're right. Well then, let's play together.
