This is a more principled strategy than flattery, and less risky than walking or whingeing, but it is not wholly satisfactory either. 这种策略比阿谀奉承有原则,比走人或抱怨安全,但也不是尽如人意。
Do you sit next to a whingeing workmate who constantly moans about fellow colleagues, workload or politics? 坐在你身旁的同事是否总是不停地埋怨工作伙伴、抱怨工作量太大或批评政治?
There is a club for similar haters in all organisations and they meet at the coffee machine every day, whingeing away and doing nothing. 任何机构中都有一小撮类似的愤愤不平者,每天喝咖啡时聚在一起开小会,牢骚满腹,光说不练。
