英文里皮里阳秋的说法
这方面的书已经是汗牛充栋了,我也来凑凑热闹。以下是一些个人在公司里的感受。
That's a very good point
Shit you just caught me off guard with my pants down!/I totally missed that
Let's do a deep dive into this area
Show me all the spreadsheets with the most gory details
Let me go socialize Tom
Let me talk to Tom and try to get his buy-in
You are the MAN!
Thanks for the Starbucks
Hey I'm getting some Starbucks...you want anything?
Can I legitimately kiss you up?
(responded from above) Yeah ... actually... I'll go with you
I want to talk to you in private. Got some rumors/gossips to share.
Is this a good/bad guy?
Is it favorable/unfavorable to net income?
Yeah I hear you
I understand your concern and ... dear, I don't give a damn.
Stretch line
difference between my bottom-up forecast and the top-down requirement on net income which I have no clue whatsoever how to achieve
Go figure
I don't know how to do it and I don't care. Just do it. That's YOUR job.
Duh
Oops how come I missed that / Yeah right ... big deal ... so what?
Yeah...right
You gotta be kidding
It might not be a bad idea
This idea sucks. You can't think of anything remotely intelligent?
I just want to plant some seeds here
Give this idea some thought, though it's still too early to talk about it
I'm just thinking out loud
I have this brilliant idea and you have to hear it... you may not understand it though and it may not have anything to do with the debate here.
Just throw it to the wall and see what sticks
If we do this to them, they will get hurt, but I don't care. Do it. Only worry about it when they respond
When the shit hits the fan
When this whole thing blows up
Start FYIing stuff to me
Start putting my name in the "cc" field and do not expect me to do any action, though I might.
Just between us girls
This is just between you and me. It's totally unofficial and private. (only used on guys)
Just want to make sure we are all on the same page
You so have no clue what this project is about. Let me explain it to you, stupid.
Let's just put some stakes in the ground
I don't know whether this action is right or wrong, but we have to do something, now.
Apparently he's been prepped
Somebody already briefed him of the agenda before he came to the meeting
Just want to throw it out there
I don't know whether this works or not and I take no stand on this issue, but it's worth a discussion
Just hear me out
I know you disagree, but heck let me finish my freaking sentence!
So we just have to agree to disagree
I acknowledge we've tried to resolve the dispute and we remain divided, but it's ok. Our disagreement is not a show-stopper.
OK, fine... let's talk about the process and policy then
You are probably right on this one, but did you spell it out in the standard operating procedure 152 section 47 paragraph 13? If not, I'll do it my way. Go change the policy before picking up another fight.
You might want to have a closed-door conversation with Tom prior to the meeting
Make sure Tom is totally silent and nods to whatever we say on the meeting.
I don't mind being a good soldier if this is the moment of all-hands-on-deck
I don't agree and don't want to do this. But if you order me to do so and this is going to help you, fine.
This is the moment of all-hands-on-deck
The company is in trouble... EVERYONE has to contribute. Otherwise we all go down the drain together.
