第10章 途中事宜

打电话

中西文化

Hello只叫一次,不要重复,并且尽可能先将自己的姓名和电话号码告诉对方。打电话和接电话时,不能用 “Who are you” 问对方,而只能用“Is that×××?”或 “Who's that” 等问对方。打电话一定要尊重对方的习惯,西方人很忌讳晚上10点以后和早上6点以前去电话。打电话力求简明扼要,不要浪费资源,这样,对人、对己、对社会都有益处。

Post and Cable Service邮电服务

中西文化

每个国家的邮政服务都有不同的方式。比如在美国:(1)不能在邮局发电报或打电话;(2)安全投递有挂号邮件和保证邮件两种方式;(3)你在任何城市可通过“存局集领”收到邮件。

在邮局办事应主动排队,有些邮局立下了外宾优先、老年人优先和残疾人优先的规章。这是营造良好社会风尚的一种举措,大家都应当理解和支持。

投信件时,要看清本地邮件(local mail)、外埠邮件(out of town mail)及国际邮件(international mail)的标识,将信投入相应的邮箱里。

英美等国家的邮局不受理打长途电话的业务。

邮局开办的储蓄业务,对某些群体的人们提供了不少方便。

尽量不从国外邮寄包裹,否则一旦出了差错,很难查询。
