你不该告诉老板的十件事

2010-07-19来源:和谐英语

也许你和你的老板相处地很好,但总是会在一些特殊的场合里你想说的话多于你应该说的。下面是你不应该和你老板说的10件事。

You may get along well with your boss but there will always be that specific instance where you want to say more than you should. Here are ten things that you should not say to your boss.
 
1. In a minute.
 
Sometimes you'll get called into the boss' office just as you're about to do something that you've been waiting to do. Bosses don't often view our personal wants as an important factor to the job, so when your boss calls you in to see them, it's not good to say you'll be there in a minute.
 
等一会。
有些时候当你老板让你去他办公室的时候你正好要做一些你一直等着做的事情。事实上老板们并不把我们个人的需要看成是工作中一个重要的因素,所以当你的老板叫你去见他的时候,最好别说等一会过去。
2. Ooh, ugly tie There may be times that your boss wears the ugliest tie on earth but it is not your place to tell them. They are aware how they dress and maybe the tie was a gift that they couldn't say no to wearing. Or maybe they just have bad taste, but that is their privilege.

哦,难看的领带!

也许有些时候你的老板戴了世界上最丑的领带,但是这并不是你应该告诉他们的。他们知道自己穿衣服的风格,也许这个领带是一个他们不能不戴的礼物。或者也许他们只是有很差的品味,但那是他们的特权。

3. I hit your car.

Yes, it could happen that you bumped your boss' car in the parking lot. It's only right that you tell them what you did but it's still not the greatest thing to tell your boss.

我把你的车撞了!

当然,在停车场把你老板的车撞了是可能发生的。你告诉他们是你干的是正确的,但是这还不是你最应该告诉你老板的事。

4. Who's the guy I saw your wife with at the bar last night? This is one of those things that you really don't want to get involved with. If you tell your boss and then his wife proves you wrong, that could be the beginning of the end for you.

昨天晚上在酒吧里和你太太在一起的那个男的是谁啊?

这是你最不想掺和进去的事情之一。如果你告诉你的老板了,她的太太又证实了那不是真的,那么那也许将是你完蛋的开始。

5 You're late.

Being late has come to be one of those privileges that may inconvenience you but is their seniority right. Telling them they are late could be seen as undermining their position over you.

你迟到了。

上班迟到是那些对你看来很麻烦但却是老板们的特权之一。告诉他们他们迟到了可以被认为你藐视他们的地位。
