Co-Workers (2)

同事（2）

A: Do you get along with your co-workers?

A：你和同事关系如何？

B: I get along pretty well with most of them. It seems there are always a few rotten apples in the bunch, though. Like Jessica. I don’t know why management hasn’t fired her yet. She’s a terrible gossip.

B：我和大部分人处得都很不错。不过，一群人中似乎总会有几个难弄的，比方杰西卡。我不知道管理部门为什么到现在还没解雇她。她成天说人闲话，令人厌恶。

A: Do you think management should fire someone just because they gossip?

A：你认为管理部门会仅仅因为那些人说闲话就解雇他们吗？

B: It’s not only that she gossips, but she also tries to start problems among other employees by spreading rumors and telling lies about her co-workers. She’s not trustworthy, and in my opinion, I think she’s nuts.

B：她不仅仅是闲聊，而且散布谣言，在同事间挑拨离间，还对同事说谎。她这个人不可信，而且我认为她是疯了。

A: So how do you develop good relationships in the office?

A：那你在办公室是如何搞好同事关系的？

B: I think one of the important things is just to be considerate of your co-workers’ feelings and needs. If you are aware of other people and do your part to make a good working environment, you should be able to get along with most of the people you work with.

B：我觉得最重要的事情之一是多考虑同事的感受和需要。如果你意识到别人的存在，尽自己的力量去营造好的工作环境，那你肯定能与大多数同事相处融洽。

A: I think you’re right, but it does seem that there are always a few co-workers that are harder to work with than others.

A：我想你说得对，可是确实有些同事比其他人难相处。
