    形式有些严峻,士气有些低迷

    部门的全体人员大会总是会在需要开会的季节才会开

    时间永远是中午12点开始。30几个人会安静的坐在会议室,等vp说“咱们边吃边开”,然后所有人立刻起身说笑着去会议室外早已摆放好食物的桌上取吃的。

    紧缩的财政永远是美国各个大公司当下的主题。VP拐弯抹角说了很多,最终不得不回到实质,其实大家都有些紧张。好在皆大欢喜---部门预算减了10%,但是还不至于“减人头” (他原话是: the good thing is that we don't have to do any head-cut-type of cutting...).(插播一下,好像公司还在赞助上海世博会,VP懒心无肠的继续说“那些能不去上海出差的同志,就最好别去了,省点钱回家带孩子去。。。”)

    于是在接下来的一个小时会议中,我数了数,7个同志,包括6男1女,都睡着了。

    这安详的场面突然让我想起了另一个Steven.那个以前分管公司手术器械部分Communication的VP。上周那公司内部调整,活生生把那个以前雄罢一方的集团划归到了其他部门。而重组后的部门的Communication VP竟然是“暂时空缺”。于是,每天早上看到steve在公司上蹿下跳,衬衫的扣子都只系了一颗。估计他也有好几个孩子要养,还有一栋豪宅要月供吧。。。我这种涉世未深的小孩子以前哪里见过这么生动的现实啊,实在觉得此情此景过于残忍。

    回到催人睡眠的大会,我才发现,今天稀稀拉拉的才来了20个人不到。除了那个回家生孩子的大姐,包括我那位在健身器上跑步都时刻保持优雅姿态的新老板都不知了去向。。。虽然坐在对面已经睡着的大叔还没有开始打呼噜,但是团对的士气明显是低落了。怪不得下面的子公司都让员工们穿牛仔裤上班了呢,据说研究表明,穿休闲服上班有助于提升士气。

    开完会,实在是很难在坐在电脑前继续工作。接到一封邮件,一个同事下午要给我打电话谈工作,赶紧回信,装B说自己今天忙得要死,要打明天打。说实话,和办公室的大姐们聊天都觉得累,怎么还能谈工作呢。。。虽然想到另一个steven的境遇,还是提醒自己要好生珍惜,努力工作,可是生活在团队低落的士气中,自己又怎能独善其身呢。

    这大晚上12点了,天儿还热得不行,不过新泽西的秋老虎大致也就能发威这两天了,天儿凉了,人也就该醒了,团对的士气估计也就该上来了吧。
