【老美講話都很直接?】Uber、Airbnb 的實習拒絕信告訴我們的英文寫作秘密。。。
還記得在UPenn 時,有一位日本籍教授曾經說,有眾多研究顯示,亞洲的留學生在校園生活時,有時寫作、講話太過直接,讓美國教授感覺到不禮貌。
後來追究原因,發現因為這些學生在國內不斷被提醒「亞洲語言的間接在美國文化是行不同的,應該要直接一點!」以致「矯枉過正」。
近期是美國的找實習、找工作季,對於每個留學生來說,有好消息、必然也有壞消息。特別是像 Google、Netflix、Uber、Airbnb 般的熱門公司,每年要發出的「拒絕信」如雪片般多。我們今天就一起來看看 Uber、Airbnb 這兩個熱門公司的拒絕信,窺探一下美國文化是否「真的都那麼直接」。
【Airbnb】
Hi XXX,
Thank you again for applying for the Software Engineer, Intern 2020 (San Francisco) role at Airbnb. We're truly inspired by the talented people who find their way to us, and we know that it took a lot of time and effort on your part. (暖心廢話 XD)
While this is never easy news to share (繼續讓步), we've decided not to move forward with your application for this position (其實就是 decided to ditch you). We appreciate your care in sharing your qualifications and experience (感謝不完,再感謝一次)。
Even though this position didn't work out, we will keep your information on file-if there is another opening that is a better match, we will contact you (最好是會). You should also feel free to keep an eye on our careers page for future positions that might be of interest to you.
看完 Airbnb,我們再看看 Uber:
【Uber】
Hi Kevin (假名),
Thanks for taking the time to chat with Linda. I hope it was a positive experience for you!
While Linda thoroughly enjoyed meeting you (讓步廢話來了), we will not be moving forward with your candidacy for her role (有夠間接). She commented on your strong visual design skills (好話說在前), but is looking for a more robust UX background at this time.
We hope you keep Uber in mind for future opportunities (鼓勵藕斷絲連), Kevin, and best of luck finding that perfect summer internship (祝你好運,掰~).
Happy holidays!

看完了這兩個例子,還覺得美國人都很直接嗎?也許你會說看狀況。但在專業的場合,不論文化,「禮貌、合宜、專業」應該是共同文化。這時,寫作要知道如何寫「讓步」(make concessions) 就非常重要了,這也是不論是要寫好學術寫作、議論文寫作、business email 都要的技能。

【你拿什麼來改命?】
Once in a while, I will meet clients who are...unusual.
Some will tell me they are in a very bad emotional state because of personal issues.
Some will say because they are mentally disturbed.
Some will say other Masters have told them their homes have spirits and these spirits have affected them.
Such spirits may be left behind by previous owners.
Maybe the ex-owners have pet ghosts.
Maybe they set up a an altar of unorthodox origins.
Maybe they have too many abortions and the baby spirits run amok in the home.
Maybe the ex-owner died in the house but the property agent never told you to the truth so that he can earn money off you. #虧心錢
The reasons can be countless.
Your problem isn't what that matters with me.
If you come to me seeking help.
Be serious and proper when you communicate with me.
I have been told by some clients and workshop participants, that my eyes are piercing.
That I can be fierce... harsh...direct... blunt... strict...
But I deliver results.
Don't get me wrong. I don't do bullying with a fierce persona.
Every destiny that is entrusted into my hands by my clients and students, I take it v.e.r.y seriously.
When you talk to me, I listen intently.
認真工作的人,都是嚴肅的。
I can't prescribe a wrong remedy or I will have to pay very serious karmic consequences.
If I don't think that you are serious about your life, screwing about with the recommendations I gave you, I won't bother with you or reply you.
I don't get offended and angry. Or treat you like an enemy.
我生命中沒有敵人。
We are just a bad match.
You are adult enough. This is your life, your problem.
You want to send me messages with many "haha"...
If you sound too ding dong...
It's going to be hard to take you seriously.
(And you wonder why nobody listens to you.)
You want to send messages to me without saying "Hi Ji Qian", and just ramble on what you want from me...
I will wonder how polite you are to your elders and teachers. If you value people enough, you show them your manners, no?
I greet you by your name, and I expect you to do the same.
Don't need to call me Master. Just my name.
When I teach you ways to transform your destiny, so that your financial woes can be resolved...
So that your child gets better academic results...
So that your marriage will be happier...
So that your health issue can be eased, without racking up huge hospital bills.
I expect more than a "Thanks", "TQ", "🙏" or "TYVM" in our communication.
Money isn't enough to buy my consultations, for me to take over your negative karma.
When I have the patience to guide you through some of the mess you created for yourself, you should be conscientious enough to put in the effort to type "Thank you".
I don't do sign language over here.
If I'm not your cup of tea, there are many other qualified and dedicated practitioners to choose from.
(Well, you can skip all of the above formalities with me if you're my mum-in-law...)
Last I know, being courteous is the guaranteed free and lasting way to win benefactors
Staying all high and mighty and lazy isn't going to lead you to a brighter future.
Also, if you had been rude to my Shifu (and didn't apologise) or had went back on your word with him (eg promised to read his articles but didn't), I won't take up your case or accept you to my workshop either.
If you can do that to a Master like him, I can imagine how you treat people who are lower class or "no value" to you.
Lastly, if you have aborted before, and I have told you what you should do to show your repentance, but you didn't,
I am very unlikely to serve you again.
For whatever bad fate that you have undergone, had a lot to do with the baby you killed.
If you are not showing your sorry through actions, I have no reason to obstruct your killed baby from exercising his revenge.
Sometimes, during consultations or messages, it does feel like I am talking to the ghost in the human,
And sometimes, the human in the ghost.
My point is...
我不管你是人還是鬼,你既然要來找我,你就要懂你的禮貌。
I don't care whether you are a human, a ghost, or an X-man. When you decide to look for me for help, pull yourself together and remember your manners.

為何今天會講廣東話?因為今天我們的標題是!廣東話test!!!
好多香港人會很好奇,為何馬來西亞人會講廣東話?
那就要多得香港連續劇,電影加廣東歌曲
我本身是客家人,由於小的時候都看廣東劇,和電影,聽得多看得多就會講了,加上吉隆坡大部分的電台都是講廣東話。
好了,廢話少說:來測試一下你的廣東話!
Level 1:講對白
「我不嬲講嘢都咁大聲,我大聲講嘢唔代表我冇禮貌!」
「 1960年 4月 16號下晝 3點之前嘅一分鐘,你同我喺埋一齊。因為你,我會記得嗰一分鐘。由家開始,我哋就係一分鐘嘅朋友。呢個係事實嚟,你追唔番,因為已經過去咗。」(旭仔)
「我衰咗三年,我等緊個機會,爭番口氣。唔係要證明話畀人聽我威,只係想話畀人聽,我唔見咗嘅嘢我想自己攞番!」( Mark哥)
「魚蛋亦都冇魚味,但係你為咗掩飾,專登加啲咖喱汁將佢做成咖喱魚蛋,但係咁做太天真,因為你煮嘅時間唔夠,咖喱味根本只係喺表面,而冇入到裏面,掂到湯之後仲要冲走埋。好好哋一粒咖喱魚蛋,俾你整到冇魚味亦都冇咖喱味,失敗!」(食神)
我上等威風,顯現一身虎膽。
你下流賤格,露出半個龜頭。
Level 2: 唱歌!
忘掉種過的花 重新的出發 放棄理想吧
別再看 塵封的喜帖 你正在要搬家
築得起 人應該接受 都有日倒下
其實沒有一種安穩快樂 永遠也不差
就似這一區 曾經稱得上 美滿甲天下
但霎眼 全街的單位 快要住滿烏鴉
好景不會每日常在 天梯不可只往上爬
愛的人 沒有一生一世嗎
大概不需要害怕
忘掉愛過的他 當初的喜帖金箔印著那位他
裱起婚紗照那道牆及一切美麗舊年華 明日同步拆下
忘掉有過的家 小餐枱沙發雪櫃及兩份紅茶
溫馨的光境不過借出到期拿回嗎
等不到下一代 是嗎
Level 3:急口令!
姨媽而家去宜家傢俬買而家啱用嘅宜家傢俬。
樹枝有隻雌性黐線蜘蛛啲蜘蛛絲黐住枝樹枝。
出東樓,走六步,碰見六叔和六舅,好六叔,好六舅,借給我六鬥六升好綠豆;過了秋,收了豆,再還給六叔六舅六鬥六升好綠豆。
圓圓遠遠叫圓月,叫來圓月來賞月。圓圓說:月月圓,圓月說:圓圓月。圓圓說:圓月的眼圓比月圓。 圓月說:圓圓的圓眼賽圓月。究竟是圓圓,圓月的眼兒圓,還是圓圓的月兒圓
大家是不是出了一身汗,究竟大家的廣東話測試結果怎樣?可以留言下面,如果你喜歡我的頻道,記得按這邊訂閱!謝謝你的收看,拜拜!
hi everyone, thanks for watching HenHen TV, I'm Tommy, why i am speaking cantonese today? because we are going to test how good you cantonese ? Many hongkong people are curious why malaysian can speak cantonese, because of TVB, we watched a lot of drama and movies too, plus majority people in kuala lumpur can speak cantonese, so even we are hakka, hokkien, cantonese, but we still can speak cantonese because of that.
so straight to the point today, we're going to test your cantonese today!
Level 1: reading script in movies
Level 2: singing
Level 3: tongue twisters
if you can pass all three of the level, means you cantonese are ok, we will have part 2 in this topic again next round
