That new guy is a total clock-watcher. He checked his watch FIVE times in one hour and left his desk exactly at five o'clock.
那个新来的员工就是个看表族,他一个小时内看了五次表,一到五点立马走人了。

Teachers are parents too, so I always designate one staff member as the clock-watcher. That person keeps the meeting on track.
老师也是为人父母的,我总是安排一个员工承担提醒的角色,这个人会让会议保持时间上的准确性。

I've never been a clock-watcher, but this place is turning me into one: I can't wait to get out of here at the end of the day, and spend every Sunday dreading Monday.
