白領應急英語口語 奮鬥之路29 工作壓力
常用應急場景
範例一：Feel exhausted
I have been very busy this year, working late, often taking work home and taking no vacation. I feel exhausted.
You should ask for a holiday and relax yourself for a little bit. You worked so hard.
You are right. For the past few weeks, I had no appetite and couldn’t sleep well. What’s worse my back started aching this Monday. It is time for me to take a vacation.
範例二：Handle my stress
Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by your work?
Of course! It is the No.1 stressor in my life. You know job stress has become a very common problem these days. So we must learn to cope with it.
Totally agree. What is your solution?
Well, there are two causes of job stress. One is employee characteristic and the other is company condition. So if we want to manage job stress, both we and the companies should do something. For me, I am trying to balance work and leisure time. You know, all work and no play make Jack a dull boy.
You seem to have a very relaxed outlook.
It is necessary. Positive attitude helps to prevent stress.
But I don’t think we can change our working condition. Anyway, we are not the bosses.
I heard some companies are providing stress management training and making changes inside them, like avoiding unrealistic deadlines and organizing relaxation activities. Our boss is a smart person. He will be learning from that if he would like to an efficient and healthy team.29.工作壓力
