輕鬆日記商務職場篇 第39期:不要指望別人

核心句型：
Don't bank on you. colleagues to help you out of trouble.
不要指望同事來幫你擺脫困難。
bank on這個短語的正確意思是：“指望、依賴”。因此，當美國人說"Don't bank on your colleagues to help you out of trouble."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"Don't rely on your colleagues to help you with your problem."、"Don't depend on your workmates to help you out."。
