It’s not polite to arrive at a dinner party more than 15 to 20 minutes late. The host or hostess usually waits for all the guests to arrive　 　　 　 having the meal. If 　 　 is late, all the others will be kept waiting. If you will have to be late, call and tell them to start 　 　 you.

It’s even worse to be 　　 ! The host or hostess 　 　 　 not be ready. If you are early, drive or walk 　　 　 the block (街区) for a few minutes, or just sit in your car until the right time.

Though it’s often important to arrive at a party on time, yet on the other hand, for open houses, the host or hostess invites guests to 　　 and leave between certain times, so you can arrive at any time within the times he or she gives you.

It’s nice to bring an empty stomach, but it’s even nicer to bring a 　　 present. The present should not cost a lot, or you might embarrass（使尴尬） the host or hostess. Flowers, wine, or a box of candy will do fine.　 　　 bring money as a present.

There is more than one way to find out whether or not you are in the right field, or working at the right position. If you hate going to work each day, and are worried about the weekend’s end, it is one sign; but, there are other signs that you are bad at your job.

1. You always get left out

If you find that you can’t fit in with anyone who works in the office, it might not be the right place for you to work. If so, it is time for you to start looking elsewhere, because you might not be suited for what you are doing now.

2. You never get work to do

If you work with a larger team, but you are never chosen as a team leader, or even part of a team, it may be a sign that you are not great at your job.

3. You don’t get raises

When all other employees (员工) get a 1% annual pay (年薪) increase, or higher, yet you have had the same salary (薪水) for a few years, it may be a sign that you are just getting by. A raise is your boss’s way of thanking you for your hard work, and great service.
