Elementary ‐The Office ‐ What Do You Do? (C0021)
A: Oh, look, there’s Caroline and her boyfriend. She’s always going on about him at the office. Oh, great, they saw us. They’re coming this way.
B: Oh, man...
C: Jessica! Arthur! Hi! I’d like you to meet my boyfriend Greg, he’s the V. P. of quality and safety for a top Fortune 500 food company.
A: Nice to meet you. This is my husband, Arthur.
B: Hey, how’s it going?
D: Hello.
A: Caroline talks about you all the time. I guess you must be pretty busy at work.
D: Well, yeah, V. P. position is not easy, you know! I implement policies and procedures nationwide of various departments, as well as train junior managers in FDA and EPA regulations. I also have to oversee daily operation of our quality control for the entire east-coast. That alone means I have 1500 employees under me.
B: Wow, yeah... that sounds exciting.
D: And what about you, Arthur? What do you do for a living?
B: Oh, I’m a Top Gun pilot!

    Top Gun Pilot是电影《壮志凌云》的英文名字,这个单词以这个形式流传最广。 TOP GUN是在美国海军陆战队中最优秀的人,Top Gun只有一个,即The best in best。 (摘自百度知道)
