Is there any worse feeling than waking up late?
还有什么比起晚了更糟糕的吗?
Whether
it's your mom screaming for you to wake up or your iPhone buzzing with
messages from work, there's no worse way to experience the light of day
than with a swelling pit at the bottom of your stomach that drops at the
moment of consciousness.
不管是你老妈吼你起床,还是你的iPhone收到工作信息正发出声响,没有什么比肿胀的胃把你从睡梦中叫醒更加糟糕的了。
The
worst part is, you can't justify your actions. You want to tell your
mom why you're so tired — because you stayed up till 2 am reading the
most fascinating book.
最糟糕的是,你不能为你的行为找到合适的理由。你敢对你妈说你之所以这么累,是因为你熬夜到2点看一本精彩的书吗?
But
you know she'll stop you at 2 am. That's all she'll hear. She'll scold
you for staying up late, threaten to take away your computer and tell
you to start going to bed earlier.
但是你知道她不会让你熬夜到2点。她会因为熬夜责骂你,威胁拿走你的电脑,叫你早点儿睡。
The
same will happen with your boss. You can't explain that you were late
for the third time this month because you were researching the life of
an earthworm. People don't want to hear your "excuses." They want you to
get your shit together.
你的老板也会这样。你不能解释这个月第三次迟到的原因是你在研究蚯蚓。人们不想听你的“借口”。他们只希望你能做好自己的事儿。
