Starting out on the right foot at a new job can be just as tricky as getting one in the door in the first place. Mary Mitchell, corporate trainer and author of Class Acts: How Good Manners Create Good Relationships and Good Relationships Create Good Business, offers her guidelines for laying a strong foundation in those first weeks: 在一份新工作中邁出第一步也許和你從家中出來(lái)先邁了哪只腳一樣"需要小心處理".《典范：禮貌與良好關(guān)系、良好關(guān)系與良好企業(yè)》一書(shū)作者，企業(yè)培訓(xùn)師，Mary Mitchell提供了一些指導(dǎo)方針。幫人們?cè)陂_(kāi)始新工作最初的幾周內(nèi)打下一個(gè)牢固的基礎(chǔ)：

    * It's natural to feel out of place in the beginning, but resist the temptation to engage in office gossip or to get pulled into a clique right away. 開(kāi)始的時(shí)候感到自己有些"格格不入"是很自然的現(xiàn)象，但是你要管住自己不要立刻參與辦公室的閑聊或被拉入"幫派"當(dāng)中。

    * Accept that there's always a learning curve, and own up to what you don't know. "If everyone's using an acronym you don't understand, speak up," Mitchell says. "You actually show an enormous amount of self-confidence when you say, 'I've never heard that term before. Can you explain it to me? 承認(rèn)每個(gè)人都有學(xué)習(xí)曲線，承認(rèn)哪些是自己知道的。"如果大家都在用你不懂的縮略語(yǔ)，你要明確提出，"Mitchell說(shuō)，"你說(shuō)了'我不知道這個(gè)術(shù)語(yǔ)，能解釋一下嗎？'之后，你實(shí)際上會(huì)感到很自信。"

    * Avoid the chorus of "at my old job, we did it this way." It will only annoy your new colleagues. Instead try saying, "I've seen this approached differently, and here's how." 避免說(shuō)："在以前的公司，我們就是這么做的". 這只會(huì)令你的新同事們感到討厭。要說(shuō)："我見(jiàn)過(guò)不同的方式，是這樣的……"

    * It sounds elementary but bears repeating: Thank people when they help you. Don't assume that just because you're the new person, someone is obliged to show you how to use your voicemail or fix the copier. 下面這些聽(tīng)起來(lái)都是些基本的東西，但是還是要重復(fù)：別人幫你的時(shí)候，要謝謝他們。不要以為自己是新人，別人就有義務(wù)告訴你如何用語(yǔ)音信箱或修理復(fù)印機(jī)。

    * Be upbeat, and don't bore people with your personal life. "Your new coworkers don't need to know about your headache or latest dental problem," Mitchell says. "And while you can certainly talk about your husband or kids early on, don't show up with your wedding album or baby pictures." 保持好心情，不要用你的私生活來(lái)讓人們感到無(wú)聊。"你的新同事不需要知道你頭疼怎么樣了或最近的牙齒問(wèn)題，"Mitchell說(shuō)，"當(dāng)然你可以很早就和同事們談?wù)撃愕恼煞蚝秃⒆�，但是不要那么早就拿出你的結(jié)婚照或孩子的照片。"
