As soon as you wake up, place a phone call to whoever is expecting you, informing them you'll be late this morning. 当你醒来了，给期待你到来的人打个电话，告诉对方，你可能会晚点到。 This person will, most likely, be your immediate supervisor. This will remove all doubt as to your whereabouts. It is advisable to express some type of regret during the call and that you'll be there within ____ minutes. Be generous on your time estimate and arrive before then. 而你对话的这个人，就是你的直接上司。这样就能让对方清楚你所在的地方。同时在电话中表达自己的愧疚感，并说明自己在____分钟内到场也是可取的。为自己预留宽松点时间，然后在此之前到达就可以了。 Something along the lines of this should do. 同时，还有一些该注意的事情。 Don't chit chat. 别唠嗑。 Don't try to make up a dumb excuse that you believe will sound semi-plausible. Just get ready as quickly as possible and get your butt to work. Don't speed, endangering the lives of innocent others. You'll probably want to give up your daily morning visit to Starbucks on the way. 不要想着找愚蠢的借口。只管尽快整装出发。但在其过程中别超速驾驶，以免造成无辜人员的生命危险。也许在此过程你就得放弃到咖啡店喝杯咖啡的想法了。 |
