不要和老板说的10句话

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.

也许你和你老板相处得很好,但总是会有一些特殊的场合,你想

说的话多于你应该说的。下面是你不该和老板说的10句话。

1.In a minute.等一会。

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 him, it's not good to say you'll be there in a minute.

有时老板让你去他办公室的时候,你正好要做一些你一直等着要

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.Oops, I forgot.啊!我忘记了。

And we do get so busy that we can't remember everything, but

some things may not be well received when we say that. So, instead of saying you forgot, try, “I'm on it, but I haven't got through to them yet”.

It's like saying the glass is half full instead of half empty. They mean the

same; one just sounds better.

当我们很忙的时候,我们不可能记得所有的事情,但是有些事情

当我们说忘了的时候,老板们也许就会不高兴。所以,你可以说, “我正在做,但是还没有完成”而不是直接说你忘记了。这就像是说 玻璃杯里的水是半满着而不是半空着一样。它们的意思是相同的,只 是另一个听起来更好。

3.No! 不行!

If the boss comes to you with a project to do, it's not always in

your best interest. In order to refuse it, you could suggest someone else do it or declare how busy you already are, but to say no might not be appreciated.

如果老板找你做一个项目,但项目并不总是你最感兴趣的。如果

想要拒绝他,你可以建议其他人来做,或是告诉他你现在有多么忙, 直接说不行也许会让你的老板很不高兴。

4.You dont know that? 你不知道么?

Most bosses like to feel that they know everything, although

you and the rest of the office may differ in opinion on that issue. Try beginning your sentence with, “You probably already know this”. This shows your boss that you respect their intelligence, even though you know better.

大多数老板觉得自己懂得所有的东西,尽管你和办公室的其他同

事也许和你的老板有不同的观点。试着这样去说,“你或许已经知道 这个”。这就让你的老板感觉到你尊重他的想法,即使你知道的更多 一些。

5.Youre late.你迟到了。

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.

上班迟到是对你而言很麻烦但却是老板们的特权之一。告诉老板他们迟到了可能被看成你在藐视他们的地位。

6.Ooh, ugly tie! 哦,难看的领带!

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 wear.Or maybe they just have bad taste, but that is their privilege.

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。或者他们只是有很差的品味,但那是他们的特权。

7.I hit your car.我把你的车撞了!

Yes, it could happen that you bumped your boss'car in the parking

lot. It's only right that you tell him what you did, but it's still not the greatest thing to tell your boss.

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老板的事情。

8.Whos the guy I saw your wife with at the bar last night?昨天晚上在酒吧里和你太太在一起的那个男的是谁啊?

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.

这是你最不该掺和进去的事情之一。如果你告诉你的老板了,而她的太太又证实了那不是真的,那么也许这将是你完蛋的开始。

9.How much do you make a year? 你一年挣多少钱啊?

We all would love to know the truth about that one, and maybe some

bosses are free to discuss it. But generally, it's a big no, no.

我们都想知道这个问题的答案,也许有些老板并不介意去讨论它。但是总体来说,这是一个很不合适的问题。
