1. Remember it's just your job.
1. 记住,这只是工作。
In my private life, I hate confrontation! It's precarious ground negotiating private relationships with people you care about. But when I have my professional gear on, I've always felt more empowered. In my line of work, you are expected to confront. If I ever have a contentious interview and I find out that the guest was unhappy, I'll go to them and say, "Look, this is my job. If you're gonna come on prime time at the Fox News Channel, where we have to cover a lot in three minutes, it's going to have to be hard-hitting. If you can't handle that, you shouldn't be here." I've had to rise to that occasion, too, as the host.
我在生活中很讨厌与人产生正面冲突。因此,当你和在乎的人发生矛盾时,你要衡量利弊再做决定。但每次我真的开吵时,我总是觉得这绝对是有必要的。职业性质所致,我难免要与人正面冲突。如果我要进行一场颇有争议的采访,一旦发现采访对象稍有不悦,我会说,“这是我的工作,如果你想出现在福克斯资讯的黄金时段,我们必须在三分钟内涵盖尽量多的内容,这样才有冲击力。如果你做不到,你就不配在这”。而我作为主持人,也必须打起精神。
2. Pick your battles.
2. 时刻准备,为自己而战。
When I was fresh out of law school at age 25, I was the only female lawyer in our office. My boss kept asking me to copy cases for him, and he never asked the male lawyers. I resolved that I would confront him. I planned exactly what I would say, which took away some of the nerves. I said, "If you want me to make a copy and come in and have a discussion as lawyers, I'll do that, but I won't copy that case for you." I saw him go red in the face and he started yelling, and it was a scary moment. My heart was pounding. I was worried I was about to be fired on the spot. But I had planned my follow-up too. I said, "Bob, if you want to speak to me like a professional, then we can have that conversation. Otherwise, this conversation is over for now." He was so mad, he wound up calling the head partners of the firm. They told him, "Not only is she right, but we don't ever want to hear about your asking an associate of this law firm to copy cases again." It was so important for me. You only need to do that once, and forever more you have that power. And as for my old boss Bob, he and I went on to coauthor articles and try cases together, because I had earned his respect.
