應屆生必讀:工作中絕不能犯的8個錯誤

* Planning poorly

　　計劃性差

Do you spend your first hour at work wondering what you should work on today? "So many people, when they leave their office at 4 to 6 pm, reAlly have no clue what they're going to do first thing the following morning," said Glenn Davis, president of the Next Step Group, which recruits sales and sales management professionals for software and other companies. It's more efficient to plan your next day before you leave work。

你是不是每天都要在辦公室先花上一個小時考慮該做什麼？ Next Step Group公司總裁Glenn Davis說："很多人在下午4-6點離開辦公室時，對第二天一早要做什麼一點頭緒也沒有。下班前爲第二天做個計劃會提高效率。"Next Step Group公司專門替軟件公司及其它公司招聘銷售及銷售管理人員。

　　* Spending the day in "email reaction mode."

　　一整天都處於“電子郵件響應模式”

Answering every email message as it comes in may make you seem responsive, but it's not productive. "You feel like you're being a hero because you're dealing with all your email," said Valerie Frederickson, CEO & founder of Valerie Frederickson & Co., an HR executive search and consulting firm. "But it has nothing to do with achieving your goals."

每收到一封電子郵件就立刻去回覆。這個做法也許表現出你能積極響應，但並不是一定有成效。人力資源執行官搜索及諮詢公司Valerie Frederickson的CEO和創始人Valerie Frederickson說："你感覺自己像個英雄，因爲你處理完了所有的電子郵件，但是這對於完成目標沒幫助。"

　　* Abusing work-from-home privileges

　　濫用在家辦公權利

Yes, you save time when you work from home by not commuting. But too many people are easily sidetracked by the laundry, their kids, a quick errand. "People like to say, 'I get so much more done'" working from home, Davis said. And some do -- but not everyone. If you work from home, make sure you're putting in a full day's work -- and that you're accessible to your colleagues during the workday。

是的，在家工作讓你不必把時間浪費在路上。但是有很多人會因爲洗衣服、孩子和突發狀況不能集中精神。Davis說："人們喜歡說，在家辦公，‘我能多做這麼多'"。有些人的確是，但並不是每個人。如果你在家辦公，確保你安排了一整天的工作量，而且在工作日，同事們都能聯繫到你。

　　* Putting personal life before work

　　個人生活先於工作

Everyone has emergencies from time to time. But it's annoying to have to repeatedly fill in for the colleague who is late every morning because he's checking on his home remodeling project, or who misses an entire afternoon because she scheduled a routine dentist appointment for 1:30 pm。

每個人都會時不時有緊急事情，但有些情況讓人惱怒，比如你總是要頂替一位每天早晨由於檢查家庭裝修而遲到的同事，或頂替下午1:30去看牙醫而整個下午都沒來的同事。

　　* Being late for meetings

　　開會遲到

People who show up 5 or 10 minutes late for a meeting cause a "domino effect," Davis said. Meetings later that day may be thrown off schedule because the earlier ones ran late. And people who show up on time feel their time is being wasted。

按Davis的話說，開會晚到5或10分鐘會引起"多米諾"效應。因爲前面的會議開晚了，那麼當天安排在後面的會議的時間都會被打亂。而且準時到會的人也會感覺自己的時間被浪費了。

　　* Not taking care of health and hygiene

　　不注意個人健康和衛生

Leslie G. Griffen, an HR consultant and career coach, is sometimes hired by companies to approach an employee who doesn't bathe and ask them to improve their hygiene. The problem is twofold, said Griffen, principal of The Griffen Group. A sloppy appearance will cause a poor first impression. Also, "if your hygiene is bad, your health is probably bad," Griffen said. An added benefit of eating well and exercising: You'll have more energy。

人力資源顧問及職場教練Leslie G. Griffen有時候會應公司聘請去教導不洗澡的員工，要求他們改善個人衛生。Griffen Group公司總裁Griffen說，這個問題會帶來雙重惡果：懶散的外表會給人不好的第一印象，而且"如果你的個人衛生不好，那麼健康或許也不好。"良好飲食及鍛鍊的一個額外好處是，你會有更多精力。

　　* Using inappropriate humor

　　不適當的幽默

Your coworkers may not appreciate your sense of humor. Skip the off-color or "racially targeted" jokes, Griffen said. And be careful about sensitive subjects such as politics and religion。

你的同事們可能並不欣賞你的幽默。Griffen說，避免那些下流或"具有種族歧視"的笑話，而且注意政治和宗教這些敏感話題。

　　* Not caring about your work

　　不關心自己的工作

People like coworkers who are enthusiastic about what they do. Show that you take pride in your job by presenting yourself well, communicating clearly and doing your best work。

人們喜歡對工作有熱情的同事。用良好的舉止、清晰的交流和最好的業績來表現出你以工作爲榮。
