In the Office-Work-Tiring

在办公室-工作-疲累



An urban warrior's daily life involves getting up in the morning and driving work.He fights through traffic jams for one and a half hours,then enters a steel jungle people call downtown,and rushes to his shiny office building just before eight o'clock.Working some forty odd 1 hours a week,office workers do the assignments given by their managers.There are people who answer the phone,talk to clients,and write reports.There are others who check inventories,order products,and file invoices 2.

都市上班族的日常生活是包含着早上起床然后开车去上班。他要通过一个半小时的交通堵塞,然后进入一个人们称作市中心的钢铁业林中,并且在8点以前行进他那闪亮的办到大楼里。一周工作40多个小时,办公室员工们做着经理分派他们的任务。有人接听电话,跟顾客谈话,并写报告。还有另一些人检查物品清单,订产品,以及管理收据发票。



The managers gather in meetings to discuss the company's goals and plans for the future.When everyone does their jobs well,things go smoothly 3.But this is not always easy.Office jobs can get boring because they are repetitive.Then if you make mistakes,your boss or supervisor 4 will give you long lectures to make you feel embarrassed.

经理们聚焦在会议上,讨论公司将来的目标和计划。当每个人都做好他们的工作时,一切都会运作的很顺。但这并不是容易的事。办公室工作大都是枯燥的,因为它们都是重复的工作。有些人每天做的都是完全要样的事情。然后有一天你犯了个错,老板或上司就会把你训个半天让你觉得丢脸。



Sometimes high quality employees leave the company after a few years and start their own businesses.However,those being their own bosses aren't always better off than the warrors.

有时候高素质的员工在公司做了几年之后就会离开公司开创他们自己的事业,但是,那些自己当老板的人,并不一定总是过得比上班族的人还要好。
