How to job - share
Wouldn't it be nice if the working week finished on Wednesday? With a job-share it can. Here's the essential guide to making it work. Èç¹û¹¤×÷¶¼ÔÚÐÇÆÚÈýÍê³É£¬ÄÇÆñ²»ÊǺܺÃÂð£¿Óй¤×÷¹²Ïí¾Í¿ÉÒÔ×öµ½¡£ÕâÀïÊÇʹËü¹¤×÷µÄ»ù±¾Ö¸ÄÏ¡£ (0) Find the perfect partner

Bosses should consider requests for flexible working from employees with children under six. So embrace [im?breis] the benefits: 'Twice as much experience, skills, brainpower and energy.' Savage says.

Always discuss the worst-case scenarios.Çé¾³[si?n¨»?ri?u] When Margaret Mills, a teacher, lost her job-share partner because of a family illness, a return to full-time work seemed inevitable. 'We had been over-optimistic. I did manage to find someone else who fitted in with me, but I was very lucky.'

0 Even at home,always set (set) yourself a timetable.
1 You need (need) to find a quiet place to work,where there are no distractions¸ÉÈÅ.
2 If you communicate (communicate) with a client on the phone today rather than face-to-face,it¡¯s still import to dress for work as normal.Èç¹ûÄã½ñÌìÓë¿Í»§µç»°¹µÍ¨£¬¶ø²»ÊÇÃæ¶ÔÃæ£¬´©Õý³£µÄ¹¤×÷·þÒÀ¾ÉÖØÒª¡£
3 Now that you have escape (escape±Ü¿ª) from the office,you¡¯ll still need peace°²ÐÄ and quiet at home.Don¡¯t answer the door to neighbours or make social calls.
4 Once you have been working (work)from home for a while,you might feel a bit lonely.It might be worth going into the office once or twice a week.
5 After you have been (be) at the computer for a few hours,remember to take a break ¨C why not leave the house and go for a walk outside?
6 Be strong.When a friend calls and asks you out to lunch,say what you would say in any other job:¡¯Sorry but I am working (work) on something at the moment.How about after five instead? 7 Make sure colleagues and clients can reach ÁªÏµµ½you and answer (answer) the phone as though you are in the office.
Life¡¯s all about making connections½¨Á¢ÈËÂö
To you, networkingÈ˼ÊÍø might mean (1)attending a conference or trade fairÉÌÆ·½»Ò×»á event to meet new client or partners.Or it could be the coffee break at work where you share (2) ideas with colleagues in other departments²¿ÃÅ. But nowadays networking has become an event in itself.
For example, Pricewaterhouse CoopersÆÕ»ªÓÀµÀ»á¼ÆÊ¦ÊÂÎñËùoffer its female staffÖ°Ô±µÄ a formal networking (3) group called PwCwomen. With 900 members, it organises×éÖ¯eventsʼþranging from´Ó¡¤¡¤ÅÅÁÐ informal drinks evenings to coaching¸¨µ¼ events. Tina Hallet, who is (4) responsible¾¡ÔðµÄ for the group, says that she got involved (5) in Éæ¼° networking because¡®I¡¯d got to a reasonablyºÏÀíµÄ senior level¸ß¼¶Ë®Æ½ and I wanted to help other people to maximise·¢»Ó their potentialDZÄÜ.¡¯
You don¡¯t have to be senior to (6) run a network though. Vicky Wood and Sally Hopkins had the idea for the City Girls Network when they first moved into London¡¯s corporate¹«Ë¾µÄ world and wondered how to get to (7) know other women. ¡®We couldn¡¯t find anything for people with no experience. So we thought we¡¯d start our own.¡¯From twelve friends meeting regularly¾³£, it rapidlyѸËÙµØgrew to 250 members from many different organisations. It¡¯s a great way to (8) make useful contactsÁªÂç and bring in potentialDZÔÚµÄbusiness.
Fiona Clutterbuck is co-chairÁªºÏÖ÷ϯof a network for the bank ABN AMRO. ¡®Women tend to think of networking as (9)socialising and give it low priorityÓÅÏÈȨ.¡¯ But given the chance, women will network ¨C as the bank¡¯s last ¡®speed networking¡¯ event demonstratedÏÔʾ. ¡®With over 100 women and men, it was a great (10)success. It is amazing how many people you get to meet
