初级口语表达（33）hire an assistant 2

Like I told you before, we just don't have the resources to hire you an assistant. I understand that, but the fact is we are understaffed.the timing  is just not right. The economy is bad and is too risky to take on new staff. Yeah, I guess you are right. Here is an idea. What if we hire an intern? She would take some of the weight off my shoulders. Yeah, you know, a recent graduate, she could give me a hand with some of these projects and we could keep our costs down.That sounds reasonable. Let me see what I can do. Tony, I'd like to introduce you to your new assistant. OK, great. Let's meet her.I'm Adam. Hi, I'm Tony.
