如何快速适应新工作

　　No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job.Itis important to make the center impression- not the wrong one -fromthe very first day. You will face new people. You will be in anewplace. It may be difficult to know what to do. Here are seventipsto help you make it through the first days at a new job:

　　1. First impressions can last forever. Make sure you make agoodone. Before your first day, find out if your new job has adresscode (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be suretofollow it. No matter what, always be neat andclean.第一印象很难改变，所以你要留下个好印象。

　　2. Get to work on time. Employers value employees who come toworkcenter on time. Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sureyouarrive on time. 按时上班。雇主看重那些按时上班的雇员。你应该早出发15分钟，保证能按时到。

　　3. Pay attention to introductions. One of the first thingsthatyour supervisor may do is to introduce you to co-workers.Theseco-workers will be important to you. They are the ones whowillanswer your questions when the boss is notaround.注意听介绍。你的上级首先可能做的事情之一是把你介绍给同事。这些同事对你可很重要。当老板不在时，他们可以回答你的问题。

　　4. Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisorhastold you what is expected of you. If he or she has not toldyouyour job duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goalsforyourself.多问问题。一定要明白上司要求你做的事情，如果他没具体告诉你工作职责，就应索要工作目录，然后每天、每星期给自己定一个工作目标。

　　5. Do not take too long for lunch. What is the lunch-hourpolicyat your new job? You can find out from your supervisor oryourcompanys personnel department. For example, do people eat attheirdesks or does everyone take a full hour outsidetheworkplace？午饭时间不要太长。你的新工作单位对午饭有什么规定？你可以从你的上级或者公司的人事部门那里了解到。譬如，雇员是在自己的写字台就餐，还是有一小时的时间到外边就餐？

　　6. Do not make personal phone calls. You should nevermakepersonal phone calls to your friends and family unless it isanemergency. 不要打私人电话。除非有紧急情况，不要给朋友或家里打私人电话。

　　7. Never be the first one to leave. Observe how yourco-workersbehave around quitting time. It does no look good for youto beeager to leave. 绝不要第一个离开办公室。看看你的同事到下班时的举动如何。急于要走是不好的。
