   核心句型:

  I'm tired of dealing1 with my two-faced co-workers and capricious boss.
  我讨厌跟那些虚伪的同事和善变的老板周旋。
  two-faced 直译过来就是:“两面的”,这个短语的正确意思是:“虚伪的”。因此,当美国人说"I'm tired of dealing with my two-faced co-workers and capricious boss."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I hate dealing with my hypocritical colleagues and fickle2 boss."、"I'm sick of mingling3 with my disingenuous4 workmates and variable boss."。
  情景对白:
  Benjamin: Honey, don't you have an office party tonight?
  本杰明:亲爱的,你今晚不是有个公司聚会吗?
  Shirley: I don't want to go. I'm tired of dealing with my two-faced co-workers and capricious boss.
  雪莉:我不想参加。我讨厌跟那些虚伪的同事和善变的老板周旋。
