輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇 第70期:花言巧語哄騙老板
核心句型：
He is so good at giving the boss a snow job.
他多擅長花言巧語哄騙老板呀。
snow job這個俚語在日常生活很常見，它的意思是：“以天花亂墜式的迷惑性言語來說服或欺騙他人”，強(qiáng)調(diào)欺騙者所編的謊言很有迷惑性。常用來推銷商品、騙取錢財、討好上司或贏取耳根軟的女性芳心。因此，當(dāng)美國人說"He is sogood at giving the boss a snow job."時，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"He is really skilled in coaxing theboss."、"He really excels at kissing up to theboss."。
