輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇第207期:虛偽善變

核心句型：
I'm tired of dealing with my two-faced co-workers and capricious boss.

我討厭跟那些虛偽的同事和善變的老板周旋。

two-faced 直譯過來就是：“兩面的”，這個短語的正確意思是：“虛偽的”。因此，當美國人說"I'm tired of dealing with my two-faced co-workers and capricious boss."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"I hate dealing with my hypocritical colleagues and fickle boss."、"I'm sick of mingling with my disingenuous workmates and variable boss."。
