每次進(jìn)辦公室的時(shí)候是否會(huì)因?yàn)閼?yīng)該把門開(kāi)著還是關(guān)著而猶豫呢,到底要怎么做才顯得不失禮節(jié)又職業(yè)化呢?一起來(lái)聽(tīng)聽(tīng)今天的節(jié)目吧。

陳豪在北京的ABC美國(guó)公司工作,他的同事Amy在陳豪新?lián)Q的辦公室門口敲門。
(knock on door)
C:Come in.
A:Hi Chen Hao, am I interrupting you?
C:沒(méi)事,我就是處理一下郵件。
A:I was afraid I might disturb you when I saw your door was shut.
C:不會(huì)打擾的!我現(xiàn)在總算有辦公室了,所以喜歡把門關(guān)上。
A:---1---.
C:我不應(yīng)該關(guān)門嗎?
A:---2---.
C:我不懂。辦公室有門,不就是為了關(guān)的嗎?
A:---3---.
C:噢,我明白了,辦公室的門關(guān)著,別人就會(huì)覺(jué)得我不愿意被打擾。
A:---4---.
C:我怎么沒(méi)想到呢!別人會(huì)以為我是在會(huì)客、趕著完成工作,或是在講電話,不愿意被外人聽(tīng)到。

當(dāng)天晚些時(shí)候,Amy又來(lái)到陳豪的辦公室,門開(kāi)著,陳豪正在跟同事Todd講話。
C:(To the co-worker) Todd, I am really disappointed in your work on this project. Please take it back and rework it using the correct data. Hi Amy, come in. Todd was just leaving.
A:Bye Todd, see you later. (Amy hesitates a minute) Gee, that was embarrassing.
C:覺(jué)得尷尬,為什么?
A:---5---.
C:怕別人聽(tīng)見(jiàn)?可他的報(bào)告實(shí)在讓我無(wú)法接受,我只能把報(bào)告打回去,讓他重寫。你覺(jué)得我應(yīng)該怎么做呢?
A:---6---.
C:你不是說(shuō)辦公室應(yīng)該開(kāi)著門的嗎?
A:I did, but I didn't say that you should have it open all the time.
C:剛才Todd 進(jìn)來(lái)的時(shí)候門就是開(kāi)著的,所以我就沒(méi)關(guān)。
A:---6---.
C:我明白了,謝謝你,Amy.
It is good to have some privacy every now and then, especially when you need to concentrate on something, but I think you should reconsider keeping it shut all the time It can give a bad impression to your colleagues, some of whom don't have the luxury of an office with a door When people see your door shut, they assume that you are not to be disturbed. I was reluctant to knock, but I needed to deliver a report to you so I decided to take a chance A closed door implies that you might have someone in your office or that you are working on an important project and don't want to be disturbed. You might also be having a confidential phone conversation and don't want to be overheard Well, walking up while you were criticizing Todd was embarrassing, because I am sure that made him feel uncomfortable to have you reject his report and especially when other people walking by could hear your conversation with him You should have shut your door while you were talking to him so no one else would overhear you You needed to get up from your desk and shut the door. Or you could have asked Todd to close the door. Then you could have had your talk in private
