职场6大禁忌话题你可千万要避免了（打印版）

There are some conversations that don't belong in the workplace. Certain topics could make things awkward and even unpleasant for you and for your coworkers. You should always, for example, stay away from discussions that may become fodder for the office grapevine with you as the main focus. You should also avoid revealing personal information that might negatively influence the perceptions others have about your ability to do your job effectively. Discussing controversial subjects can also get you into trouble with your coworkers. Safe topics, if you were wondering, include movies, music and food (especially if you bring some into share). Here are six topics you should seriously consider crossing off your "things to discuss with my coworkers" list.

在职场中，并不是什么话都能说的。某些话题或许会使场面更尴尬，甚至使你和你的同事感觉不自在。你应该保持谨慎，比如说，避免那些产生流言的话题，这些流言会让你成为大家关注的焦点。你也要避免泄露任何使对方对你的工作能力留下负面印象的个人信息。如果你在疑惑哪些问题比较安全的话，那么，就讨论最近卖座的电影，动人的音乐还有美食吧（特别当你想跟大家分享点什么的时候）。但是下面的6个话题，是你应该从“与同事讨论的话题”清单中坚决剔除的。

You shouldn't discuss your religious beliefs or your thoughts about other religious beliefs at work. This doesn't mean you should hide your religion or shouldn't be proud of it, but it is a very personal issue and people are often sensitive about it. They don't want to hear that you disagree with their religious beliefs or that you believe your religion is the one in which everyone should believe.

工作中，你不应该谈论自己的宗教信仰或任何对其他宗教信仰的看法。这并不意味着你要隐藏自己的信仰或不应引以为豪，但这只是一个相当私人的事情，并且人们对此也会很敏感。别人可不想听到你对他们的信仰的任何负面评论，或听到你说只有你的信仰才是每个人都应该相信的那一个。

People are also very sensitive about their political beliefs and therefore you should avoid getting into lengthy conversations about politics. While you may feel very strongly about your party or candidate, or have negative views about the opposition, you should not try to win your coworkers over to your side. It is unlikely to happen anyway and will just cause hard feelings between you and them.

人们对于自己的政治信仰也是很敏感的，所以你也不要滔滔不绝地谈论这方面的话题。当你对自己所支持的政党或参选人抱有非常大的信心时，或者对对方的参选人持有消极的评价时，你也不要用话语争夺同事们对你的赞同。因为这几乎是不可能发生的事情，而且也只会给你们之间产生矛盾。

Why shouldn't you talk about your sex life? Simply because it's no one's business other than yours and your partner's. Other than that, it makes people uncomfortable. Taken to the extreme, it may even border on sexual harassment. If you need to confide in someone other than your partner, a good friend will have to do.

为什么不能谈论性生活？这仅仅是因为这事只跟你和你的性伴侣有关，跟别人没半毛钱关系。除了这个原因以外，这个话题还会让人感到不舒服。若最极端的情况，也许会对他人造成性骚扰。如果你很想跟你的伴侣以外的人分享，那就跟你的好朋友说吧。

When you discuss problems you are having at home, your coworkers and your boss may wonder if they are distracting you from doing your job. It will also reveal your weaknesses which can undermine your authority with your subordinates, if you have any. In addition, it will feed the rumor mill, making you the subject of workplace gossip. That is something you surely don't want to be.

当你与同事或老板讨论家庭的琐事时，他们可能会认为这些事情就是使你工作分心的事情。这也暴露的你的弱点，削弱你在下属面前的权威（如果你有下属的话）。再者，你还会越描越黑，让你成为职场八卦的主角。这可不是你想见到的局面吧。

You may consider your current job a steppingstone to bigger and better things. That's great but talking about your ambitions will certainly, for good reason, make your boss and coworkers question your loyalty. If you are interested in moving up within your current organization, your actions will speak for themselves. You should do your job exceptionally well, and of course, let your boss know you want to move up. Just don't make it the topic of workplace conversations with anyone who will listen. If your plans for the future include leaving your current place of employment in order to advance it isn't necessary to announce that until you are ready to make your move.

也许你会把当前的职业作为跳板，助你站到更高更大的职业舞台。这是非常好的事情，但如果你在职场谈论你的雄心壮志，确确实实，会让你的老板和同事们质疑你的忠诚度。如果你对当前所在公司的人员擢升充满期待，你的行动将会为你证明。你需要出色地完成你的任务，当然，也要让你的老板知道你的升职愿望。但千万不要让它成为职场话题，让职场小人听到。如果你未来的计划是要离开现在的工作往更好的平台发展，那么等待时机成熟再说吧。

If you have a chronic illness, don't dwell on it too much at work. Doing so will give your coworkers and boss reason to wonder if your condition will keep you from doing your job. If you have a serious health issue that will cause you to take leave from work, you must discuss it with your employer, but you are not required to provide details.

如果你患有慢性疾病，也不要在职场里过度描述它。如果你这样做只会给你的同事和老板一个很好的挑你刺的机会，质疑你是否胜任这份工作。如果你确实患了比较严重的疾病，需要请病假，你就必须跟老板坦白，不过你也不必把任何细节都表露无遗。
