Dear Annie:I’m turning to you and your readers because, frankly, I’ve been all over the Internet researching my question and now I’m totally overwhelmed. The thing is, I just graduated from college at the end of May and I’ve never even had a “real” job before (just internships). But I’m now working for a small company where they immediately put me in charge of a team of eight people. 亲爱的安妮：坦白讲，我之所以向您求助，是因为我曾在网上寻找问题的答案，却被五花八门的回答搞晕了。事情是这样的：我在五月底刚刚从大学毕业，在此之前从来没有从事过“真正的”工作（只做过实习生）。但现在我所在的一家小公司，却突然让我负责一支八个人的团队。 The technical side of it doesn’t worry me at all—I was hired because of something I invented and patented during my senior year, which we’re now developing into a new product line—but the management part is keeping me awake nights. I’ve had no training at all in how to be a boss, and I think people can tell I’m just sort of faking it. Do you have any suggestions? — Amateur Hour 在技术方面，我一点也不担心——这家公司之所以聘用我，是因为我在大四的一项发明，并且获得了专利，现在公司正在将这项专利开发成新的产品，但管理职责却让我彻夜难眠。我从来没有接受过相关培训，不知道如何给人当老板，我觉得人们一眼就能看出来我是虚张声势。您有什么好建议吗？——A.H. |
