奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导

Joe Stoker, rear brakeman on the ---- accommodation train, was exceedingly popular with all the railroad men. The passengers liked him, too, for he was eager to please and always ready to answer questions. But he did not realize the full responsibility of his position. He "took the world easy," and occasionally tippled; and if any one remonstrated, he would give one of his brightest smiles, and reply, in such a good-natured way that the friend would think he had over-estimated the danger: "Thank you. I'm all right. Don't you worry."

白话

乔·斯托克是某趟慢车的后车制动员,在铁路工人中非常受欢迎。乘客也喜欢他,因为他热心讨好,有问必答。但他没有充分意识到自己岗位的责任。他“随随便便”,偶尔喝点酒;如果有人劝他,他会露出最灿烂的笑容,用那种好脾气的腔调回答,让朋友觉得自己高估了危险:“谢谢。我没事。别担心。”核心是:光有人缘和好态度不够,忽视责任和隐患会酿成大祸。做法是:认真对待自己的职责,别用“我没事”搪塞劝告,及时改正小毛病。

上下文

马登用铁路制动员乔·斯托克的故事,说明不负责任的态度如何埋下隐患。

今日一问

你是否也用“我没事”回避过别人的提醒?那个问题真的没事吗?
