weisure 工闲
分类: 实用英语
Weisure (work + leisure) refers to free time spent doing work or work-related tasks. Weisure time is fitting fun around work, rather than fitting work around fun. It’s kind of like eating lunch at your desk.
“工闲”(英文weisure就是work+leisuire)指的是把空闲时间用于工作或和工作有关的事项。Weisure是在休闲生活中穿插进工作,而不是在工作之余找找乐子。这就像在办公桌上吃午餐,就算是休闲时间也要盯着工作。
Weisure has been fueled by social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace, where “friends” may actually be business partners or work colleagues. These networking sites offer participants in the weisure life lots of ways to do business -- and to have fun.
Facebook和MySpace这类社交网站助长了“工闲”一族的兴起,“工闲”一族在社交网站上的“好友”也许就是他们的生意伙伴或同事。这类网站让“工闲”一族做生意的方式变得多样化,还可以从中获得乐趣。
