Thats the Office You Have Now

When I started my current job, I was assigned to a cubicle1 with a five-foot-high partition. Promoted in three monks2, I asked for a private office in line with my new title. My boss reluctantly told me that there were three possibilities. The first was a room that housed file cabinets and printers. Another was an office that was empty except when one of the company's founders3 visited. The third was a conference room.   After we had discussed each of the alternatives, he told me to make a choice. Deciding to play it safe, I replied, "I want the one that will make the least amount of trouble and affect the fewest people." A smile shot across his face, and he leaned backward in his chair. "That's the office you have now." He said.   我剛開(kāi)始做我現(xiàn)在這份工作時(shí)，被安排在一個(gè)有著5英尺高隔板地隔間里。 3個(gè)月之后。 我得到了晉升。 于是我提出了一個(gè)請(qǐng)求，想要擁有一個(gè)和我的新職位相符的私人辦公室。 老板不情愿地告訴我，我有3個(gè)選擇：第一個(gè)是放文件柜和打印機(jī)的房間，第二個(gè)是一間空辦公室，可是有的時(shí)候，公司的一個(gè)創(chuàng)辦人會(huì)過(guò)來(lái)看看，最后一個(gè)便是會(huì)議室。   在我們商討了每一種選擇方案后。 他讓我做出選擇。 為了使做出的選擇更為保險(xiǎn)，我回答：“我想要一個(gè)將會(huì)帶來(lái)最少麻煩、影響最少人的那個(gè)房間。”一絲微笑從他的臉上掠過(guò)。 接著他往椅背上一靠，說(shuō)道：“那就是您現(xiàn)在地辦公室。 ”他說(shuō)。
