双语美文:不接受反对意见必将众叛亲离(英文试题1)
I just fired my boss.
Because he cannot stand any kind of objection .
I learned a lot during the miserable time I spent working for him.
And I think I should share my experience with you.
It is normal to have a different opinion from the boss, but the ways some bosses react to objection will probably make you speechless.
For example, they may tell you to shut up or treat you differently ever since.
This problem is most likely due to the low emotional intelligence of the boss.
If you have this kind of boss, then you can try to do this:
Write your opinions in a well-organized email and send it to him.
Not only do you need to explain in the email why you think you are right, you also have to explain what benefits your proposal has for the boss. If your boss’s IQ is qualified, then he will at least have further communication with you after carefully reading the email.
But if his practice is the same as before, then it means that the company really has problems, and it is not appropriate for you to stay in this company for too long.
双语美文:不接受反对意见必将众叛亲离(英文试题1)
我刚刚辞职了。
因为他忍受不了任何反对意见。
在为他工作的这段悲惨时间里,我学到了不少教训。
我觉得我应该跟你们分享一下我的经验。
和老板意见不同是一件很正常的事,但有些老板对此的应对方式会让你很无语。比如,他们可能直接让你闭嘴,或者是在之后给你穿小鞋。
出现这种问题,很有可能是因为老板本身情商低。
如果你碰上的是这种老板,那么你可以尝试这么做:
把你的意见写成一封条理清晰的邮件发给他。
你不光需要在邮件中说明你为什么认为自己是对的,还要说明你的提案对老板来说有哪些好处。
如果你的老板智商合格的话,那么他在仔细看了这封邮件后至少会和你进行进一步的交流。
而如果他的做法还和以前一样,那就说明这家公司真的有问题了,不宜久留。
1:
United Kingdom - Pride and Prejudice
Pride and Prejudice is kind of a literary Rosetta Stone, the inspiration, basis, and model for so many modern novels. You’re probably more familiar with its plot and characters than you think. For a book written in the early 19th century, it’s modernity is surprising only until you realize that this is the novel that in many ways defined what a modern novel is. 2:
Ireland - Ulysses
Ulysses did “stream of consciousness” before the term existed, and it’s also a sprawling novel dense with allusions, wordplay, obscure jokes, and intensely, opaquely personal ruminations by the characters.
英国:《傲慢与偏见》
《傲慢与偏见》可以说是文学界的一块罗塞塔石碑,同时也是许多现代小说的模板,所以你对其中的情节和人物可能比你自己想象中要熟悉。作为一本写于19世纪的书,它的现代性是非常惊人的,而你稍作了解之后就会知道,这是因为现代小说在很大程度上就是被这本书定义的。
爱尔兰:《尤利西斯》
《尤利西斯》在“意识流”这个概念出现之前就开始使用它了。同时,它也是一本相当错综复杂的小说,充满了隐喻、文字游戏、隐晦的玩笑、以及角色们欲说还休的个人沉思。
Wherever you are, you cannot avoid gossip .
There is classroom politics at school, and office politics at work; as long as there are people, there will be politics.
In fact, not all gossips are harmful. Sometimes proper gossip symbolizes a healthy working environment.
We were born to like gossip, because this is an important channel for us to get information; in the meanwhile, chatting with acquaintances gives us a sense of belonging.
However, it is an undeniable fact that real life gossip often develops into a ridiculous war and is ultimately no good for anyone.
How do we survive this unfortunate environment?
Well, the simplest solution is this:
Rumors stop here.
The nature of gossip lies in spreading, thus the best way to end gossip is to stop spreading the rumors.
Remember, although people often enjoy talking to those who love gossip, they do not really like this kind of people.
After all, anyone can understand that they can talk to you about other people today, they may talk about you behind your back tomorrow.
