They are hormonal, incapable of leaving their personal lives at home and only too happy to talk about their staff behind their backs.

她們很情緒化，不能將個(gè)人生活局限在家中，還過分熱衷于在背后討論她們的員工。

Female bosses are a nightmare to work for, a survey of employees concludes.

最近的一項(xiàng)員工調(diào)查顯示，有個(gè)女上司簡直就是夢魘。

And it is not just men who think so.

而且，持這種觀點(diǎn)的不僅僅是男士。

Two-thirds of women said they preferred a male boss because their straight-talking, `get to the point` attitude makes them easier to deal with.

2/3的女性表示更喜歡男上司，因?yàn)樗麄冎v話直率，“直截了當(dāng)”的態(tài)度更容易相處。

They are also much less likely to have a hidden agenda, suffer mood swings or get involved in office politics, workers said.

此外，員工們還表示，男上司的幕后動(dòng)機(jī)、情緒波動(dòng)都比較少，也很少卷入辦公室政治中。

About 3,000 men and women were questioned for the research, with three- quarters of men agreeing that they would rather work for a man than a woman.

約3000人參與此項(xiàng)調(diào)查。其中，3/4男性更傾向于為男上司而不是女上司工作。

A quarter of women accused female bosses of backstabbing and bringing their personal lives into the office.

1/4女性抱怨女上司精于背后暗箭傷人，還把個(gè)人生活帶到工作中來。

And a third of those polled said women with power are `loose cannons` who often feel threatened by colleagues. David Brown, of online recruitment firm www.UKJobs.net, which commissioned the research, said: `Incredibly both men and women are in total agreement that men make better bosses - 63 per cent of women and 75 per cent of men.

1/3調(diào)查者表示，女領(lǐng)導(dǎo)總是我行我素，經(jīng)常覺得被其他同事威脅。英國招聘網(wǎng)站www.UKJobs.net發(fā)起了該調(diào)查，相關(guān)負(fù)責(zé)人David Brown說：“令人難以置信的是，男人和女人都認(rèn)為男上司更好--63%的女性和75%的男性持這種觀點(diǎn)。”

This indicates that while women are more than capable of progressing to a management role, some lack some of the key skills required to be a good boss.

從以上調(diào)查來看，雖然女性有能力成為管理人員，有些人卻缺少優(yōu)秀領(lǐng)導(dǎo)所應(yīng)具備的關(guān)鍵技能。

No one is suggesting that women aren`t intelligent enough to be in senior positions, far from it, but perhaps-some need to be more approachable and less competitive.

但是，這并不表示女性的智慧不足以勝任高層職位，遠(yuǎn)非如此。或許，有些人只是需要更平易近人，不要那么爭強(qiáng)好勝罷了。

People want to go to work knowing they will be given a fair chance and are supported 100 per cent by those they work with and for.`

人們工作是希望自己能被平等對(duì)待，并得到同事和上司的全力支持。

Fifteen per cent of the workers questioned said female bosses were too `sharp tongued` and a third said it was obvious when it was their `time of the month` because of mood swings.

15%的受調(diào)查員工表示，女上司"說話刻薄"，1/3人表示每月的“特殊時(shí)期”，她們會(huì)因情緒波動(dòng)而變得更加刻薄。

Other negative assessments included them being `too cliquey`, too competitive and spending too long worrying about their appearance.

對(duì)女上司的其他負(fù)面評(píng)價(jià)還包括排外、求勝心切、過于關(guān)注自身形象。

Forty per cent said men were more able to distance themselves from politics and bitching and 14 per cent said they found them more reasonable than women.

40%受調(diào)查者認(rèn)為，男上司能主動(dòng)遠(yuǎn)離公司政治和牢騷，14%認(rèn)為男上司比女上司更通情達(dá)理。

Those who prefer a female boss said they did so because women are more approachable, friendly and understand when workers need time off to look after their children.

而那些喜歡女上司的人則表示，女上司更平易近人，而且知道員工什么時(shí)候需要請假照看孩子。

Mr Brown added: `We shouldn`t forget that a third of those polled did say women are better to work for.`

Brown先生還說：“我們應(yīng)該記得1/3受調(diào)查者表示，為女上司工作更好。”

The study found that the average worker has had two female and three male bosses.

調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，平均每個(gè)員工都有過兩個(gè)女上司，3個(gè)男上司。

A third have left a job because they didn`t like their boss, and of these, the majority of women claimed they left because of a female manager.

1/3受調(diào)查者因不喜歡上司而離職，而在這些人中，大多數(shù)女性聲稱女上司是自己離開的原因。
