职场英语每日一句•人物性格篇 第57句

14

 

He's been Carlson's sidekick for decades in the show and never thought of becoming a host in the past.

他担任卡尔森的助手已几十年了,以前却从没想过要走到前台来。



字里行间


sidekick 心腹,副手或铁哥们。

弦外之音

工作上,人人都知道谁是大老板,但有时更重要的是要知道谁是老板的sidekick 。某公司的小林每天早起晚归,兢兢业业,在一个少言寡语的阿拉伯裔的小老板手下工作。办公室里,无论白人、犹太人还是黑人都以为他是木瓜一个,小林也刻意与其保持距离。直到有一天无意中得知那阿拉伯裔常常在周末充当大主管的网球陪打!没人知道他是否是大主管的sidekick,不过他与大老板在周末闲聊时肯定会对在座的员工评头论足,无论肤色种族,职位高低,都有很大的影响。世事难料!

活学活用


1. Sally is his confidant, wife and the mother of his three children, and above all, his sidekick in operating his business empire.

莎莉是他的知己、妻子、他三个孩子的母亲。更重要的是,她是他商业王国中不可缺少的助手.



2. Alex has been the Chairman's sidekick, now the right arm in designing the corporate downsizing. After the engine cools down here, we will not, but clean up.

阿莱是公司总裁的哥们,现在是他的左膀右臂,设计公司的裁员整顿。待此事尘埃落定,我们会大有斩获,大赚一笔。
