如果一个人大部分的工作时间内都坐在办公桌旁,就可以把这个人叫作 “desk jockey(坐办公室的人)”。注意,这是一个非正式的说法。
The job at the call centre basically just means being a desk jockey – it’s so dull!
这份电话服务中心的工作基本上就是天天坐班。太无聊了!
He is a desk jockey – he just sits there all day, grumbling!
他在办公室工作。他成天都坐在那里发牢骚!
I had to quit my job as I was just a desk jockey staring at a computer screen.
我不得不辞职,因为我之前只是个盯着电脑屏幕的案牍办事员。
