追逐梦想-你就得战胜危险(2)

When You Start to Pursue Your Dreams

 

追逐梦想

 

You'll be tempted¹ to bail² out for something more secure. And you'll get over it.

 

你想要保护某个东西，使其更安全。那么你就得战胜危险。

 

Job security is a myth.

 

工作是否稳定实际上就是个谜。

 

Regardless of pension promises or signed contracts, the real fact of the matter is there is no ‘job security’ in working for someone else.

 

“不管是否许诺了解决养老问题，或者是否签订了工作合同，这个真实情况就是：为别人打工就没有‘铁饭碗’。

 

If at any time for any reason the boss has a problem with you, the market goes south, your contract's over, the clientele fades, the account goes red, or the business goes belly-up, you are becoming an unemployment statistic³. ~ Eric Dubay

 

在任何时候、任何地点，要是这个老板想找你麻烦，哪怕是市场不景气引起的，你也可能会丢掉工作。客源的流失、财政的赤字、经济陷入死角，你的名字都有可能出现在失业统计的数据中。”尔克杜拜说道。
