Habits of highly effective slackers

高效“懒人”的习惯，可以帮助你成为和他们一样的人

Don't volunteer yourself for anything.

别自愿做工作。

Whether a request comes via email or in a meeting, don't ever get yourself involved in something that isn't mandatory.

当有任务通过电子邮件或会议传来时，别让自己插手那些非指定性的工作。

If no one else volunteers, they'll eventually assign someone. until they do, bank on the fact that a go-getter will jump at the opportunity and fail miserably.

如果没有人自愿去做，那这些任务自然会被分配给其他人。坚信这个事实，当工作机会出现时，总会有自告奋勇的人跳出来，如果他们接手，自然是惨遭失败。

getting yourself into non-mandatory activities only threatens to reduce your free time, or even worse, increase your physical hours at work. the one exception is actual volunteer work. anything that gets you out of the office is OK in the effective slacker handbook.

你自己插手这些非指定性工作，只会减少你的自由时间，或更遭的是，增加你的实际工作时间。不过有一项是例外，那些当你下班后所作的真正的义务工作是被写入高效“懒人”手册的。
