双语：职场之道，越来越常见的职场“回头客”

在食堂吃饭时，看到了之前辞职走掉的同事？这真不是你眼花了。虽说好马不吃回头草，但职场“回头客”如今却也越来越常见了。

Boomerang refers to an employee who quits to take another job and later returns to the company.

职场“回头客”指的是辞职另谋职位后，又返回原公司工作的人。

Boomerang is an employee who is laid off and then rehired as a consultant or contract worker.

职场“回头客”还可以指被解聘，之后又重新被雇佣为顾问或者合同工的人。

这种行为在英文中也称为Workplace U-turn。

Workplace U-turn refers to the action of bouncing back to a former employer after quitting.

职场回头草指辞职后又回到原单位的行为。

While it may seem inconceivable, it is possible to make the dreaded employment U-turn.

职场上吃回头草是人们避之唯恐不及的事情，可能显得不可理喻，但它还是可行的。

Returning employees usually end up appreciating their jobs more. And their careers can emerge unscathed, if they give sound reasons for flip-flopping - and stay put for a while in their second stint.

而回到原单位的员工往往会更珍视自己的工作。另外，如果能说出让人信服的变卦理由，并且在回去之后继续工作一段时间不跳槽，他们的职业发展也可以不受影响。
