商務禮儀之 Cell Phone Civility
陳豪在北京的ABC美國公司工作。他和同事Amy散會一起往外走。
(Office ambience)
A：Chen Hao, I can't believe what you were doing during that meeting.
C：開會的時候？我沒幹什麼啊？
A：You were using your cell phone to send text messages.
C：噢，不就是用手機發發短信嗎，Joe就坐在我旁邊，他也一直在發啊。
A：He was out of line, too. It's rude to send and receive text messages during a meeting.
C：今天會上說的都是Todd的項目，本來就跟我沒什麼關係，真不知道他幹嗎讓我來參加。
A：Even if you felt it was a waste of your time, you needed to give the meeting and everyone there your full attention.
C：別人可能根本沒注意到我在開小差。
A：Several people were aware that you were texting and they didn't look happy about it. What if your boss had been there? Would you have done the same thing?
C：如果老闆在，我可不敢。
A：That should tell you something. He would have called you down for that.
