First day at work at a new job. 上班第一天
上班第一天，主管會將你介紹給新同事，帶你了解熟悉新工作環境。
第一天到公司上班，給上級和同事留下一個良好印象是一件非常重要的事情。得體的介紹和問候會給對方留下美好印象，還要記得初次見麵時必不可少的一句話，就是"Nice to meet you.（見到您很高興。）"每當對方報上姓名時，你一定要記得說這句話。當然用"Glad to meet you." 或"Pleased to meet you."也可以。
在正式場合中,要"握手"來顯示你的誠意。當然不要忘了微笑一下，因為微笑是消除隔閡、溝通心靈的最好方法。記得握手時看著對方的眼睛（eye contact ）..作為中國人這是一個非常需要的加強的.眼睛要看著對方，讓人感到你在關注他。
下麵是幾個第一天上班的對話:

一般說來，老外是很難正確讀出中國人的姓名的。所以很多在外企工作的人，都用一個外文的名字，例如 James li, Andrew Sun. 由於發音的問題，經常老外會聽錯你的名字，及時糾正是很必要的。
Hello . My name is Tom.
Hi! Sorry. I didn’t catch your name. Could you spell that.
Sure. T-o-m. T as in tomato ;O as in open; M as in mountain.
Oh. Hi ,Tom.
為了能夠拚出某個單詞或名字，用一些常見的單詞來幫助別人聽懂, 可以說the letter + as in + a well –known word。例如T-o-m. T as in tomato ;O as in open; M as in mountain.
