外企生存必備：遇到特殊情況上班遲到

　　Late for Work 上班遲到
　　Do you feel guilty if you are late for work? One in ten workers said that they arrive late to work at least once a week and about 24% said they arrive late at least once a month.
　　情景對話1：
　　珍妮遲到了，她不得不向她的主管馬林做解釋。
　　Jane: Sorry, Ma Lin, I'm late. 對不起，馬林，我遲到了。
　　Ma Lin: Jane, that's the second time this week, isn't it? 珍妮，這是本星期的第二次了，是吧？
　　Jane: Yes. My bus was late again. 是的，公共汽車又來遲了。
　　Ma Lin: Is it possible for you to take an earlier bus? 你能搭乘一班早一些的'公汽嗎？
　　Jane: I think so. I'm going to do that tomorrow. 我想是可以的，我打算明天就這么辦。
　　Ma Lin: Perhaps we can change your working hours a bit if you wish. 如果你愿意，也許我們可以改一下你得工作時間。
　　Jane: No, thanks. I can manage. 不用了，謝謝。我能設法應付的。
　　Ma Lin: All right. If there's anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to let me know. 好的，如果有什么事我能為你做，請盡管告訴我。
　　Jane: That's very kind of you. Ma Lin. 你太好了，馬林。
　　Notes：
　　向別人表示歉意時，首先要承認自己做錯了事，或做出了不禮貌的行為，并且通常要說明原因，表示遺憾。最簡單的道歉方式是說I'm sorry。但這往往不夠，還需要對你所做的錯事做出解釋之后，做出改正和改進的許諾，表示不會讓錯誤再次發生。如果你真的做錯了事，給對方造成傷害或帶來不利的影響，這時做無謂的解釋，只能欲蓋彌彰，效果相反。
　　情景對話 2：
　　王萍和客戶湯姆約好時間見面，但因事遲到，她表示歉意。
　　Wang Ping: I'm sorry to have kept you waiting so long. 真抱歉讓您久等了。
　　Tom: That's OK. What made you so late? 沒關系，你怎么來這么晚？
　　Wang Ping: I was tied up with some urgent business. 有急事脫不開身。
　　Tom: I see. 我明白了。
　　Wang Ping: You've visited some places of interest in Beijing during the last few days, haven't you? 您已經參觀了北京的許多名勝古跡，對嗎？
　　Tom: Yes, we've visited many places such as the Imperial Palace, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Wall. Well, during my visit to Xi'an, I suddenly got an idea that we should build a synthetic fiber works there. It will be a joint venture. 是的。參觀了許多地方，比如說故宮、天壇和長城。對了，在西安參觀時，我突然產生了一個想法：我們應該在那里開辦一家合資性質的合成纖維廠。
　　Wang Ping: That's a great idea. We'll surely try our best to cooperate with you. We have many favorable conditions to run a joint wenture there. You can get full support from the local government there.那太好了。我們一定盡全力與貴方合作。我們有許多有利條件。貴方可以得到當地政府方面的全力支持。
　　Tom: That sounds really attracting. And what about the details? 聽起來確實很有吸引力。那么，有哪些細節？
　　Wang Ping: If it is convenient for you, we can go and visit the local government for those details. 如果你有時間，我們可以去拜訪一下當地的政府，了解一下細節。
　　Tom: All right. Let's make it 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. 好的，就定在明天早上九點鐘吧。
