職場(chǎng)也能吃“回頭草”.

　　Workplace U-turn rers to the action of bouncing back to a former employer after quitting.

　　職場(chǎng)回頭草指辭職后又回到原單位的行為。

　　While it may seem inconceivable, it is possible to make the dreaded employment U-turn.

　　職場(chǎng)上吃回頭草是人們避之唯恐不及的事情，可能顯得不可理喻，但它還是可行的。

　　U-turns happen most often among people in design, tech, media agencies and consulting firms, says Tim McIntyre, chi executive of the Executive Search Group, of South Glastonbury, Conn. Some job-changers say they boomerang back because they miss a workplace culture or a respected boss. Others quit to join an entrepreneurial venture, then return after the opportunity fizzles.

　　康涅狄格州南格拉斯頓伯里高管獵頭集團(tuán)的首席執(zhí)行長(zhǎng)蒂姆·麥金太爾表示，吃回頭草的現(xiàn)象在設(shè)計(jì)、科技、傳媒和咨詢公司里面最為常見。有些換工作的人說(shuō)，之所以回來(lái)，是因?yàn)樗麄兿肽钅撤N工作氛圍或某個(gè)受尊重的老板。另一些人辭職加入某個(gè)初創(chuàng)企業(yè)，機(jī)會(huì)消失之后又回來(lái)了。

　　U-turn的意思是“掉頭”，這個(gè)詞和workplace(工作場(chǎng)所)或employment(人事任用)相結(jié)合就是職場(chǎng)回頭草的意思，非常形象。

　　"The new normal is that movement from job to job is tolerated" in many fields, says Bob Damon, president of the Americas for Korn/Ferry International, a Los Angeles-based executive-search and leadership-consulting firm. With companies rushing to adapt to changing markets, it is increasingly easy to make mistakes matching people to jobs, he says. And a shortage of skilled workers in many fields makes more companies "perfectly willing to take back good employees."

　　杉磯高管獵頭兼領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力咨詢公司光輝國(guó)際美洲區(qū)總裁鮑勃·戴蒙稱，在很多領(lǐng)域中，“容忍跳槽已經(jīng)成為新常態(tài)”。他表示，企業(yè)都在爭(zhēng)先恐后地適應(yīng)風(fēng)云變幻的市場(chǎng)，人員與崗位的搭配越來(lái)越容易出錯(cuò)。而很多領(lǐng)域缺乏熟練程度高的員工，使越來(lái)越多的企業(yè)“巴不得讓好員工回來(lái)”。

　　Returning employees usually end up appreciating their jobs more. And their careers can emerge unscathed, if they give sound reasons for flip-flopping - and stay put for a while in their second stint.

　　而回到原單位的員工往往會(huì)更珍視自己的工作。另外，如果能說(shuō)出讓人信服的變卦理由，并且在回去之后繼續(xù)工作一段時(shí)間不跳槽，他們的職業(yè)發(fā)展也可以不受影響。
