Working Hours
Mary：How many hours a week do you work in the States？
Jimmy：Normally， forty hours a week from Monday through Friday. But working hours vary according to the company.
Mary：What if you work more than forty hours a week？Do you get paid？
Jimmy：Certainly. Most workers get paid by the hour and if you work more than forty hours or on weekends you get paid overtime.
Mary：That sounds a pretty fair system.
Jimmy：Except if you're in a high position. Most company executives cannot receive overtime pay.

时间管理的5个高效方法
Time management is essential in our high-speed， always-on culture， yet most advice you'll find on this topic is pretty vague."Setting goals"and"making time work for you"are， um， great， but so are practical efficiencies.Because Desk is home to thousands of self-starting contract workers， we've seen many efficiency tricks。
时间管理在如今这个高效地，不断发展的文化氛围中是非常重要的。但是迄今为止关于时间管理的建议仍是很模糊的。“设定目标”以及“让时间为你工作”确实都很重要，但是实际效率也是非常重要的。很多成功自主创业人士为我们提供了不少行之有效的方法。
The headline promises five steps for time management， but they all come from a single principle：You can only do one thing at a time， so do it right.
虽然标题说的是时间管理的五个步骤，但总的说来只有一个规则，那就是：你一次只能做一件事情，所以做好它。
1.Finish what you've started 完成你开始了的事情
This is the core idea：Where possible， working a single task to completion is more efficient. When you sit down to work， you spend a few minutes just getting"settled in"before you're productive.If you jump from task to half-finished task all the time， that's a lot of minutes lost to"rolling up your sleeves."
这一点至关重要：尽可能地完成一件任务更有效率。实际上，当你坐下来开始工作时，你需要几分钟来进入工作状态。如果你总是工作到一半又去做另外一件事情，那你会浪费很多行动的时间。
2.Think small 从小处着想
You can't always spend several hours working straight through on a single big job. Don't think in those terms.Use a simple to-do list， and take each item to completion without interruption， unless something's literally on fire.An example for the job-seeker：It's not"I'll look for jobs this afternoon，"it's checking email for replies to previous applications， scanning preferred job sites， writing cover letters， and tweaking your resume for each solid lead， etc.
不要总是认为应该花几个小时去解决一个大而艰巨的任务。列一份工作清单，然后按照清单来一项项地完成工作。除非有十万火急的事情，否则执行时就不要间断。就拿求职者来说，不是说你今天下午要找很多份工作，而是应该检查以前投递的简历是否有了回复，浏览一些适合的工作网站，写几分求职信，并认真修改你的简历，使之切实可行。
3.Quit stalling 拒绝拖延
Once you're organizing by simple components， it's easier to dive right into the small tasks. It takes a lot of warm up and deep breaths before you jump off a high-dive and we're less hesitant about walking down a flight of steps.
一旦将你的工作分割成几个小的部分，就更加容易完成任务。众所周知，在高台跳水时需要做大量的热身工作和深呼吸，但进入走上高台的台阶时，我们就会少了一分犹豫。
4.PIay well with others 与他人良好的合作
When you're working as part of a team， make sure you're prioritizing what you do to get the most important parts into the production line. Nothing's worse than having people stand around waiting for you to produce.In a job search， prioritize anyone who's waiting to hear from you；hiring managers looking for self-starters（and who isn't？）will appreciate and remember your promptness.
如果你在一个团队中的工作是做好一些重要的零件，那么你应该优先做好你的工作，以确保生产线能正常运转。没有比要其他人等着你的工作完成才能进入下个工序更糟糕的事情了。在找工作时，优先回答那些等待你答复的人；聘用经理时寻找那些能主动做事的人（谁不是呢？），这样大家一定会明白并记住你的高效率。
5.Analyze your output 分析你的产出
How could you have been more efficient？How much of your time goes to trivial， mundane work rather than the challenging stuff you enjoy and that your boss values？Job-seekers， log the time you spend at various job sites， and count how many real leads that effort yields.This way you can reprioritize your efforts for high value results.Why are you still lurking on that job board that dried up two years ago？
怎么样才可以更有效的工作？你有多少时间是浪费在世俗的琐事上，而不是用来完成你所热爱的挑战或者你上司所赏识的工作上呢？求职者们，记录下你们在不同求职场所所花的时间，并计算下真正达到效果的时间是多少吧。如此一来，你便能重新努力去追求高价值的事情。如果一个求职平台两年前就倒闭了，为什么你还在那里徘徊不前呢？
7.工作压力 Work Pressure
如何减轻工作压力：转移注意力，合理地安排工作，给自已一个喝茶的时间，分散工作法，不可能完成的工作一定要及时跟领导沟通。
