20、pically give two weeks notice. But at KIND Healthy Snacks they do things differently. Founder and CEO Daniel Lubetzky asks employees, whom he calls “team members,“ for at least two months, and in some cases two years notice. In return, Lubetzky focuses on their professional growth until the day they
21、 leave. It may sound extreme, unrealistic even, to ask for two months notice or two years notice from those who work with him directly but his reasoning makes perfect sense. “We call the KIND team a family, so major life transitions(转变 )like changing jobs arent meant to be kept in secret until the l
22、ast minute,“ Lubetzky tells Business Insider. “No one should be scared to talk about whats next for them.“ “I would rather a team member come to me months in advance, letting me know what will be happening in their life,“ he says, “whether it is a baby on the way, a relocation for personal reasons,
23、or a plan to go back to school.“ Lubetzky doesnt expect his employees to accept a job elsewhere and ask the new employer to delay their start date by two months or two years. He simply wants anyone who is exploring new opportunities to be open about it. 36 How long in advance does Lubetzky ask his e
24、mployees to give their job-quitting notice? ( A) Two weeks. ( B) One month. ( C) At least two months. ( D) More than two years. 37 For his employees, Lubetzky cares most about_. ( A) their health conditions ( B) their further education ( C) their retirement pension ( D) their professional growth 38
25、One of the reasons given by Lubetzky for his job-quitting notice is that_. ( A) he treats his team as a “family“ ( B) he can save a large amount of money ( C) changing jobs is regarded as a life transition ( D) the news of changing jobs should be kept in secret 39 What does the underlined phrase “a
26、baby on the way“ mean? ( A) A baby is going to be born. ( B) A baby is growing healthily. ( C) A baby is going to be adopted. ( D) A new-born baby is coming home. 40 What is the actual purpose of Lubetzkys requirement of job quitting? ( A) The employees should be loyal to the company. ( B) The emplo
27、yees should be open about their leaving. ( C) The employees may get enough time to search for a new job. ( D) The employees may save enough money to support their family.
