We have a super woman in our AP team who can dominate any conversation, even though she is not good in accounting knowledge. I am lucky to sit just next to her. So everyday I can enjoy listening to ...

But your english is good enough to flatter people, I reckon.

Thank you so much for sharing. I should change my attitude. Instead of complaining, i should see it as an apportunity to develop my communication skills until I find a better job. The hard thing is it's difficult and takes time especially for a shy Chinese girl. If you've got more examples of her frequently used expressions, please let me know. Thanks again!

这不是英语问题,是文化差异问题,需要慢慢PICK UP的. 也跟个人性格有关,所以也是未必能强求的.

我以前team里面也有这样一个女的，特别能侃，别人来催钱，她拖拖拉拉才付，最后人家还得感谢她，年底送了个大花篮给她

AP是得哄着-感谢你付我钱,明年还请及时付啊
很少见到AR收到礼物的 - 感谢你一年来的催款?

说的也是!今天收到一个中介的电话。是一个Assistant Accoutant的职位要我去面试。终于有 Assistant Accountant 的面试啦！不过马上就是月底，月初，会很忙.只能把面试约在下星期五，过那么久，希望不会已经找到人了。

太好了,不过MM你应该争取第一时间面试,别的不说,至少要让别人感觉到你很KEEN要得到这工作

Hehe, you want to know more about her languages? Some of her frequent sayings which I hear a million times a day are like” You are a darling”, “You sweet man!” You are a wonderful woman"," You are amazing” “ You naughty boy” .These words just sound very natural and friendly coming from her mouth. But I don’t think I will ever use her sayings to my vendors. It just wouldn't sound right coming from my mouth.She is a 50 year old typical aussie woman (a little bit rough, but nice) and she rides her motorcycle every day. Her conversation style reflects her personality and background. It suits her. Actually we don’t get along well with each other at all. She has always been educating me to be more flexible. One of her famous sayings is “There is no black and white, there is only grey areas” which she uses referring to some non tax-compliant requests raised by our clients。 Usually I won't argue with her face to face, but I persist my point of view in other ways like asking for clarification from our manager.

Frankly your this female co-worker sounds kinda flirtatious in my feeling. Smooth-talker. You don't need to pretend to be someone else if that makes you uncomfy.

I think I can picture an image of her now hehe
You are right. These expressions of her simply don't suit us. So maybe a position like AP would suit ladies like her. That's why i'm lookiing for something different
Thanks a lot for sharing!
