Emily: Hey Lisa...want to grab lunch with me?

Lisa: Sure, Emily. We haven't done that in a while.

E: Yeah...actually, we haven't hung out at all recently. You seem sort of under the weather. Is there something going on?

L: Well, keep this under your hat, but I think I'm going to quit after New Year.

Emily问Lisa要不要一起吃饭，她在这里用的动词是grab, grab lunch是一种常用的说法，意思是随便买点午饭吃，也可以说to grab something to eat。Lisa跟Emily很久没一起吃饭聊天了，we haven't hung out at all recently，to hang out意思是跟朋友待在一起，Emily还说Lisa看上去sort of under the weather，似乎有点不舒服，问她怎么回事。Lisa告诉Emily, 自己新年过后可能要辞职，但要Emily暂时保密，keep this under your hat. To keep something under one's hat意思是保守秘密，不要告诉别人。Emily听到这个消息感到很突然。

E: Quit this company? Oh...wow.

L: I know I should be pretty happy here, but I'm not finding the kind of job satisfaction I need. I'm a good graphic designer...

E: One of the best in the company.

L: That's kind of you to say. But...the stuff we do here hasn't really challenged me very much at all.

E: Oh, I get it. Simply put: you're bored, huh?

L: That's one way of putting it. For me, a job needs to stimulate my brain, otherwise it becomes a daily drudgery.

Lisa是公司里最好的图像设计师之一, 目前这份工作对她没有挑战性，simply put，简单地说，她觉得现在的工作很无聊。Lisa说，她需要一份能让她兴奋起来的工作，否则的话，工作就变成了a daily drudgery，无聊乏味的工作。
