【答案解析】[听力原文]
Diane had a problem. Her ADD symptoms were affecting her work and she was on the verge of being fired.
Her greatest difficulty was in prioritizing her tasks; she tended to major on the minors.
Through counseling, she determined to make a last-ditch effort to communicate with her boss about her problems. She did not make demands but suggested certain ways the boss could help her be a better worker. Her counselor helped her devise these ideas.
First, she asked if she could meet with the boss for a few minutes at the start of each day to go over her list of things to do.
The boss would identify the most important projects for her to deal with.
Diane asked for "time spacing" on her monthly reports—intermediate deadlines in mid-month. Previously, she had waited until the last minute to prepare these, but now she asked her boss to hold her accountable to those earlier deadlines.
Diane also asked for a flex-time arrangement. She knew she had to be there for most of the working day, but she got her best work done when no one else was around. The boss agreed to let her come to work an hour late and stay an hour late, so she could have that prime time at the end of her working day. In fact, the boss agreed to all her suggestions.
He had to spend a few extra minutes with her, but he got a much more effective employee out of this arrangement.
What was Diane"s biggest problem?
