If he ate nails for breakfast1, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss”s secretary, there are keys to timing2: don”t approach the boss when he”s on deadline3; don”t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed4; don”t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation. 2 If you”re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don”t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration5. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then, maybe he will dismiss you. 3 Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it6. 4 Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more7. If you can”t put forward an immnediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can”t get past the secretary8. 5 To deal effectively with a boss, it”s important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals9. 词汇: mood 心情 apt 易于……的,有……倾向的 concern 所关注的事情 negatively 负面地 dismiss 辞退 dispute 争辩 issue 所争辩的事情,争辩的焦点 solution /解决方法 inclined 倾向于……的,有……意向的 。
