礼仪英语：新雇员应该如何称呼同事

 　Every office has its own protocol¹ for who is called by his or her first name and who is called by his or her title. New employees² should follow suit, after listening carefully to how people are addressed.　　

　　对于男女同事的名称或职位的称呼，各个公司有不同的规矩。新雇员应该注意他们相互如何称呼而效仿。

　　If yours is a title office, but you call your boss Charlie when meeting alone, you should still call him Mr. Dodd when others are around.

　　如果您的公司规矩是称呼职位，那么在单独会见时，您可以直呼老板查理，而有其他人在场时，应称其多迪先生。

　　If yours is an informal³ office, you still should wait for the other person to say, Please call me Jim, before doing so, if he has been introduced to you as Mr. Culyer.

　　如果您的公司比较随便，您最好还是等到别人把“库叶先生”介绍给您后再如此称呼。在此之前，你还是要等他对你说：“请叫我Jim吧。”

　　Everyone, no matter whether the office is formal of informal, has a name. No assistant should ever be referred to as my girl. She is, if a possessive must be used, Charlene Walter, my assistant, or Angela Badalato, my assistant.

　　无论公司是否有无规矩，每个人都有称呼。不是每个经理助理都可以用类似“姑娘”的倪称。如果必须说明所属关系，则应如此介绍：她是Charlene Walter，我的助理，或我的助理 Angela Badalato。
