What ever company you work for, you will have a boss or a manager. If you are a manager, you will have directs reporting to you. And in most cases, you will have to work with co-workers. This lesson will cover the English you need to know to speak to co-workers. I will also have a lesson on talking to the manager and subordinates.
无论你在哪家公司工作,你都会有一个老板或一个经理。如果你是一名经理,你将会有人向你汇报工作,在大多数情况下,你需要和同事一起工作。这一课将涵盖你需要知道的与同事交谈的英语,我还有一节课是介绍如何和经理和下属交谈。
When you talk with a co-worker, most of it is small talk. You can talk about your background, what school you attended, your major, and your previous work experience. So studying the English lessons along side the business section will help you for your daily English needs. However, I'll have some sentences you can use when you are talking with a co-worker.
当你和同事交谈时,大部分都是闲聊,你可以谈论你的背景,你就读的学校,你的专业,以及你以前的工作经历。因此,在商业部分学习英语课程将有助于你的日常英语需求,然而,当你与同事交谈时,我会有一些你可以使用的句子。
If you miss a meeting, then you will need to ask a co-worker what happened during the meeting.
如果你错过了一个会议,那么你需要问一下同事会议期间发生了什么事。
"I missed the meeting. Can you fill me in?"

"I had a doctor's appointment so I missed the meeting. What happened?"

Another time you talk with a co-worker is if the boss is mad or you don't like the boss. But whenever you talk about bad things with co-workers, make sure you are talking to a friend. If that person is not a friend, then they might tell your manager what you said.
另一个是你跟同事聊,如果老板生气了或者是你不喜欢老板。但无论何时你和同事谈论不好的事情的时候,确保你聊天的是一个朋友。如果那个人不是朋友,那么他们可能会告诉你经理你说的话。
