Business Etiquette Lesson 034 - Romance in the Office
陳豪在北京的ABC美國公司工作。他這兩天遇到了感情困擾，去找美國同事Amy討個主意。
（Office ambience）
C：Amy, 我有點(diǎn)私事兒想請教你。
A：What is it, Chen Hao?
C：銷售部來了一個新的女同事，叫Kate. 我想請她出去約會。
A：Then why don't you?
C：因?yàn)槲也恢涝蹅児臼遣皇窃试S同事談戀愛。在我原來那家公司是絕對不行的。
A：You're smart to check it out first. We used to have that policy, but our management decided that we spend so much time at work and with co-workers that it wasn't fair to impose that restriction.
C：太好了，那我就準(zhǔn)備約她今天晚上出去吃飯。
A：But there are a few issues you should consider if you are going to date Kate or any other co-worker.
C：你快說說。
A：Before you get serious, you need to discuss what you will do if things don't work out. You will want to avoid any bad feelings between you.
C：是啊，我也是希望萬一不行的話，彼此都能妥善處理，不要在工作上相互拆臺。
A：That's exactly what I mean. I have seen it happen. When co-workers stop dating, one or both will often try exact some sort of revenge in the office.
C：哎，先別想那么多了，人家還沒同意晚上跟我出去吃飯呢。

MC：Amy第二天早上遇到了陳豪.
A：So how did your date go? Kate did accept, didn't she?
C：挺好的，我們倆兒特別投機(jī)。不過，Kate說，跟同事談戀愛，她也有不少顧慮。
A：What did she say?
C：她覺得，最好不要在辦公室里談我們的關(guān)系，如果別人問，我們也不否認(rèn)談戀愛，但是不會說得更具體。
A：Even if they pressure you? Some people can be pretty nosy and persistent. They'll want to know every detail of your relationship.
C：我們會婉言拒絕。
A：I guess you'll be seeing her again.
C：不瞞你說，我已經(jīng)被她迷住了，老想找個借口往她辦公室跑。
A：That is another danger of dating a co-worker.
C：你是說工作的時候容易分心嗎？
A：That's right. If your productivity and performance begin to suffer, others will notice and you will jeopardize your position.
C：對呀，如果真的影響到工作，對我們在公司的發(fā)展不利。這一點(diǎn)我倒是沒想到。Amy, 你再提醒提醒我，都要注意些什么？
A： The first thing is to know the company policy. Decide how you will handle the relationship around the office and what you will do if things don't work out.
C：我知道了。
