你是职场上永远无法成功的七类人吗

The Fearful One.
胆小怕事者

People do ridiculous things when they’re scared. Just ask anyone who’s died in a horror movie (I mean, who drops the phone and runs up the stairs?!).
人们在害怕时会做出可笑的事情。你可以去问下恐怖电影里挂掉的人(我想说的是,这些人是有多蠢才会在遇到危险时丢下手机往楼上跑呢)。

Fearful people will cause you serious amounts of trouble at work. If they’re scared of getting fired, they will find a way to point a finger at you. If their project is failing, they will suggest your role was to blame. Drowning people will grab whatever they can to keep their head above water. Don’t stand too close and become that object.
胆小的人将给你的工作带来相当多的麻烦。如果他们害怕被解雇,他们会找到方法把麻烦转嫁给你。如果他们的项目失败,他们会找你来背黑锅。溺水的人会抓住任何他们可以抓住的东西以将头部保持在水面上。别靠得太近否则你就会成为牺牲品。

And don’t become the drowning person. If you ever feel worried about something at work, you sense something bad coming your way or you screw up big time, avoid the fear by taking some action. Talk to someone, your boss, your mentor or a peer to get information that will quell your fears. Or fess up and find out immediately what repercussions are headed your way for the screw-up so you’re not worried about the unknowns. Do whatever you need to do in order to avoid becoming the fearful one.
也别成为溺水者。如果你曾经为工作上的事感到担心,你会觉得坏事即将到来,或者浪费大把时间采取行动来逃避这种恐惧。与他人、老板、导师或同龄人聊天,以获取信息来平息恐惧。或者坦白并立即寻找搞砸会有什么后果,这样就不用为未知担心。做必要的事以避免成为胆小怕事者。
