Bart Lorang may be the best boss ever.
巴特.洛朗或許是最貼心的老闆了。
The CEO of Denver-based internet start-up FullContact API said in a market that is competitive for top talent, he wants to keep his employees happy and refreshed.
總部位於丹佛的網路初創公司FullContact API的這位執行長說,在這個市場上,頂尖人才是大家競相爭奪的目標,他希望他的員工能保持開心和精神振作。
The flip-flop wearing founder offers his employees $7,500 for what he calls "paid, paid vacation," however there are rules.
這位穿著夾腳拖鞋的公司創始人向他的員工提供7500美元,用於他所謂的「付費帶薪休假」,但須遵守相關規定。
"One, you actually have to take a vacation to get the money," Lorang said. "Two, you have to disconnect from work, so that means no calls, no emails, no tweets, no work of any kind."
「首先,你必須去度假才能拿到這筆錢」,洛朗說。「其次,你必須切斷與工作的聯繫,這意味著不接電話,不回電郵,不發推文,不做任何形式的工作。」
