有很多人認為,美國人、或美國公司他們在處理一些事情上面,他們只是去喜歡重視數位,然後,喜歡重視一些實事的東西。他們不太會去願意考慮太多的情感方面的、和人性方面的一些事情。但事實上,我碰到的一些例子或者是我朋友遇到的一些例子,並不代表著是這樣的一種情況。我有一個朋友,她申請了美國公司。然後被一家美國公司給…錄用了。然後在Huston地區。但由於她的丈夫要去芝加哥地區,所以她向那家美國公司提出,我是否可以從,Huston地區轉到芝加哥地區。在一般的情況下,這種情況,一般性公司,如果是比較tough,比較嚴的那些公司的話,他們不一定會完全接受你的請求。但是這家美國公司最終同意她的請求,覺得這應該是從一個人性和家庭的角度去考慮他們員工、將來的生活和他們的工作。所以最終他們同意讓我的這位朋友,從Huston辦公室轉到芝加哥辦公室。這樣就使得他們夫妻能夠團聚。那麼,我這樣,我那位朋友也能夠很好地在芝加哥地區去工作。所以從這一點上來說,其實,在很多情況下,美國公司,他們是兼顧了一些實事方面的東西,也是兼顧了情感和人性方面的一些東西

有很多人认为,美国人、或美国公司他们在处理一些事情上面,他们只是去喜欢重视数字,然后,喜欢重视一些实事的东西。他们不太会去愿意考虑太多的情感方面的、和人性方面的一些事情。但事实上,我踫到的一些例子或者是我朋友遇到的一些例子,并不代表着是这样的一种情况。我有一个朋友,她申请了美国公司。然后被一家美国公司给…录用了。然后在Huston地区。但由于她的丈夫要去芝加哥地区,所以她向那家美国公司提出,我是否可以从,Huston地区转到芝加哥地区。在一般的情况下,这种情况,一般性公司,如果是比较tough,比较严的那些公司的话,他们不一定会完全接受你的请求。但是这家美国公司最终同意她的请求,觉得这应该是从一个人性和家庭的角度去考虑他们员工、将来的生活和他们的工作。所以最终他们同意让我的这位朋友,从Huston办公室转到芝加哥办公室。这样就使得他们夫妻能够团聚。那么,我这样,我那位朋友也能够很好地在芝加哥地区去工作。所以从这一点上来说,其实,在很多情况下,美国公司,他们是兼顾了一些实事方面的东西,也是兼顾了情感和人性方面的一些东西。

English
A lot of people think that Americans, or American companies, when dealing with issues, only like to look at the numbers and only look at tangible (logistical) things. They think that Americans are not so willing to consider the emotional or human aspects of a matter. But in fact, I and also friends of mine have run into instances that are not representative of this notion. I have a friend who applied to some US companies and then was hired by one. She was working in the Houston (TX) area. But then her husband had to move to the Chicago area, and she brought the problem up to her company. She asked if she would be able to transfer from Houston to Chicago. In most cases like this, a lot of companies, if they are relatively tough and strict, they will not necessarily grant your request. Yet in this case, her company agreed in the end to her transfer request. I feel this was a case wherein the personal life, family, future and career of the employee were considered. So in the end the company agreed and allowed my friend to move from the Houston office to the Chicago office. In this way they made it possible for a husband and wife to stay together. And this friend of mine now works very successfully in Chicago. So from this we can see that there are many circumstances under which US companies pay close attention to certain logistical or tangible things and also to emotional and personal things.
