professional organizer/ 收纳师/ (shōunàshī)

A: I have to say, your room really is messy. You have everything, why don't you think about tidying up?

我不得不说你的房间真的是太乱了,什么都有,怎么也不想着收拾一下呢？

(wǒ bùdébùshuō nǐde fánɡjiān zhēnde shì tàiluànle, shenme dōuyǒu, zěnme yěbù xiǎnɡzhe shōushí yīxià ne?)

B: I really hate organizing my room. Too clean of an environment makes me feel a bit stifled.  

我十分厌倦收纳房间,太过于整洁的环境甚至让我感觉有些窒息。

(wǒ shífēn yànjuàn shōunà fánɡjiān, tàiɡuòyú zhěnɡjiéde huánjìnɡ shènzhì rànɡwǒ ɡǎnjué yǒuxiē zhìxī.)

A: Maybe you need the help of a professional organizer?

那你或许需要收纳师的帮助？

(nànǐ huòxǔ xūyào shōunàshī de bānɡzhù?)

B: I've heard of this job. This is a new rising industry. Professional organizers will head to a client's home and organize their closets in a specific manner based on their client's color style.

我听说过这种工作。这是一个新兴产业,收纳师会通过对客户色彩风格的诊断,进而有针对性地为顾客上门整理衣橱。 

(wǒ tīnɡshuō ɡuò zhèzhǒnɡ ɡōnɡzuò.zhèshì yīɡè xīnxīnɡ chǎnyè, shōunàshī huì tōnɡɡuò duì kèhù sècǎi fēnɡɡéde zhěnduàn, jìnér yǒu zhēnduìxìnɡ de wéi ɡùkè shànɡmén zhěnɡlǐ yīchú.)

A: Yup. Compared to housekeepers, their target clients are middle-class groups. Some professional organizers' salaries can be pretty good.

是的,相比家政人员,他们的对标客户更多的是中产阶级人群,一些收纳师的收入可以相当可观。

(shìde, xiānɡbǐ jiāzhènɡrényuán, tāménde duìbiāo kèhù ɡènɡduō de shì zhōnɡchǎnjiējí rénqún, yīxiē shōunàshī de shōurù kěyǐ xiānɡdānɡ kěɡuān.)

B: That's interesting.  

听起来很有趣。
