How to Identify Them: You’ll find these gregarious types carrying on loudly at happy hour. They are the sycophants tailgating anyone who will toss them morsels of attention.

如何判断谁是乞丐型的同事：那些在兴奋之际就提高嗓门油嘴滑舌的人。如果有人对他们表现出一点关注，他们马上会对其溜须拍马。

What to Watch Out For: At first, we are pleased when we meet panhandlers, because they are willing to go out of their way to do something for us, to demonstrate their loyalty. But their loyalty shifts like a leaf in the wind. As soon as panhandlers find a better source of affirmation, they will kick you to the curb, even in the middle of an important deadline.

要注意的问题：起初，我们在遇到乞丐型的同事时是很高兴的，因为他们会不辞辛劳地为我们做一些事，以此证明他们的忠诚。但是他们的忠诚就像随风摇摆的树叶。一旦找到对他们更加肯定的人，即使在一个重要的项目只进行到一半时，他们也会把你扔到一边。

How to Protect Yourself: Realize that panhandlers focus on praise the way addicts focus on drugs. To keep them on task, refrain from giving them praise until the very end of an assignment or project. The moment you start doling out the compliments is the moment you’ll lose their attention.

如何保护自己：要意识到乞丐型的同事对赞美的着迷程度不亚于吸毒者对毒品的着迷程度。为使他们完成任务，在任务或项目马上结束之前不要赞美他们。你对他们的赞美之时正是他们对工作分心之时。
