职场不要太随便.docVIP

At one time, everyone wore suits to the office. Now casual Fridays stretch into all the weekdays. 过去，每个人穿西装上班；现在，星期五休闲日扩展到了所有工作日。 At one time, offices were the epitome of formality where bosses were addressed as Mr. or Mrs. and you wore only suits or dresses (complete with pantyhose). 过去，办公室是正式场合的象征，称呼老板用“先生”、“女士”，你会只穿西装或裙子(和连身裤袜)。 Now, many workplaces have a business casual dress code with even more casual Fridays, and the bosses -- who go by their first names -- are your Facebook friends. 现在，许多工作场所的着装规定都很宽松，周五休闲日的规定更是随意。被直呼其名的老板们是你社交网站Facebook上的朋友。 Employers relaxed the rules to enhance workplace attitudes.

Discussions regarding what you did last night and with whom are not necessarily conversations one should be having at work. Human Resources Solutions公司总裁Roberta Chinsky Matuson说：“我们每天会花很多时间在工作上，以至于人们经常忘记该怎么样划分工作和个人生活的界线。昨天晚上你和谁做了什么不是在工作中必须讨论的。” Matuson also reminds you that what you say to a close co-worker can be overheard by many other people in the desks or cubicles within ear
