  你曾做过的最无聊的工作是什么?你是怎么对待的?
  I don't really think I've ever had a boring job,but if I have to choose one,it would probably be the winter job I had at a post office when I was in high school.
  我并不觉得过去有哪些工作很无聊,不过,如果我必须选择一个的话,那可能就是我高中寒假时在邮局的那份工作。
  The job involved sorting New Year's postcards for delivery for eight hours a day every day for about a month.
  工作内容是投递贺年卡前的分类工作,在大约一个月的时间里,每天都要工作八小时。
  I don't know how it is done now,but back then it was all done manually.
  我不知道现在邮局是怎样分类的,但是那时候全部都是靠手工来完成。
  I got the knack immediately,so I had to make it more interesting and challenging for myself—I timed myself sorting the postcards and every time I tried to finish faster and faster.
  我很快就学会了分类的技巧,所以我必须让这个工作变得更有趣,更有挑战性才行。我计算我分卡片的时间,每次我都试着比上一次更快完成。
  The full-time worker who supervised me was impressed and said I was the fastest and also the most accurate.
  负责指导监督我的邮局员工对此印象深刻,并且说我是做得最快也最精确的。
  It was a great experience for a high school student.
  对高中生而言,那是一次非常棒的经历。
  当被问及这类问题时,你可以回答“I have never had a boring job.”,也可以举出一些与应聘职位无关的工作经历。
