TRANSLATION FOR NEWSWEEK SELECT

The first few weeks at a new job can be nerve-racking–especially if it’s your first job. Here are some office etiquette tips from Anita Landau, a consultant of Hudson Recruitment in Shanghai:

*Be punctual. Being on time shows that you respect your company and your job. If you are late, call your superior or working partner as early as possible.
*Shut off your cell phone. Unless it’s an integral part of your job, keep your ringer off while at the office.
*Play it cool. Avoid being overly familiar with superiors, especially in E-mails. Keep messages clear, use standard rules of punctuation, and avoid the urge to insert smiley faces.
*Absolute no-nos. Spitting, smoking and talking loudly in the office should be absolutely avoided.
*Plan ahead. Check with your boss before booking a weekend getaway since, yes, you might have to work sometimes. Welcome to the real real world.
