Hmm, how much is spent by the hotels ontraining staff and providing materials I wonder. And how much do they get paidfor their labours?

酒店在训练员工和提供材料上花费了多少钱呢？还有这些工作人员又获得了多少报酬呢？

How much they get paid should not come intoit. If you are going to do a job do it well or not at all.

这和他们获得多少报酬没有关系。如果你要做一份工作，那就做好，要不然就不要做。
