I had teamed up with John and was working hard, hoping he would notice how great I was and that he would come to support my case to make partner at the firm.
Партнирах си с Джон и работих усилено, надявайки се, че той ще забележи  колко добре се справям и че ще ме подкрепи,  за да стана партньор във фирмата.
