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 wearing. 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 them 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. Who's 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.
我们都想去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。
10. Can I have another raise? 能不能再给我涨一次工资?
Most companies have a set program for raises and you need to understand that plan so that you don't look foolish and ask for a raise out of turn. If you feel you're entitled then make sure you do a bit of research and find out the best time to ask.
大多数公司关于涨薪有自己的一套程序,你要了解这个程序,以至于自己不会很傻地要求额外的涨薪。如果你觉得自己有涨薪的资格,那么要确保做一些调查,然后找出最合适的时机提出要求。
