其实这些话题都是些过于理想化的设计。事实中的纯外企环境或者多种族办公环境里,大家都是各忙各的,见面点头就已经很热情啦,哪有精力去“维护社交”?但是,你也得考虑有些热情的同事跟你链接,于是就有了我们这一期的内容,可攻可防,任你选择拿走不谢:
话题一:周末计划 (Weekend Plans)
万能开场问法:
✅ “What did you do over the weekend?”
✅ “Anything special planned for the weekend?”(周四/五适用)
对话示例:
👉 You: “How was your weekend?”
👉 Colleague: “Oh, I just spent some time working in my garden.”
应对策略:
- 你感兴趣了:
→ “I’m really into gardening! What types of plants do you have?” - 转移话茬法:
→ “That sounds relaxing! My weekend was hectic. Did you catch any good shows?” - 冷场了,给个面子,不想给面子就来个万能的微笑:
→ “We all need quiet weekends! Speaking of… have you watched Black Mirror on Netflix?”
话题二:影视书籍 (Movies & Books)
高阶技巧:如果是你心仪的美女或帅哥,先分享自己的清单,再自然提问
👉 You: “Have you been watching Black Mirror? Each episode is standalone!”
不同回应处理:
- 对方感兴趣:
→ Discuss剧情:“Which episode shocked you the most?” - 对方没看过:
→ 解释推荐:“It’s set in a dystopian future. Perfect for sci-fi lovers!” - 对方不感冒:
→ 切换话题:“What shows are you into lately?” 或 “Any book recommendations?”
话题三:假期计划 (Holiday Plans)
节日专用开场:
✅ “Do you have any trips planned over Christmas?”
✅ “Going anywhere special for the summer break?”
对话延伸:
👉 Colleague: “We’re visiting family in Brisbane.”
👉 You可回应:
→ 好奇追问:“What’s on your Brisbane bucket list?”
→ 经验分享:“I went last year! Don’t miss Southbank’s artificial beach.”
