常见礼仪十大错误 你犯了哪条?

No.7 Being late
第七条：迟到

People like to feel valued, and if you're looking for a surefire way to indicate that you don't value them at all, go ahead and just fail to show up. You can come in 20 minutes later with a pretty good explanation, but when it comes down to it, the other person is left wondering why he evidently cares more about this relationship than you do. Especially in a professional setting dealing with clients and bosses, being late is a starkly noticeable way to divide the room into capable, considerate people and people who merely have long-winded excuses about cars not starting.
人们喜欢被尊重。让人感到被轻视的最高效方法便是赴约时迟到。迟到20分钟，然后给出个漂亮的借口的确能蒙混过关，但人们总归会暗暗想：他是不是没我那么重视这段关系？尤其是在职场中，客户和老板们一眼就能分辨出谁是能力强、考虑周到的好员工，谁是好吃懒做只会把责任推到交通上的职业打酱油兄。
