在面試新工作時,常被問到的問題就是:“你為什么要辭掉上一份工作?”,你一般都怎么回答的呢?今天我們來通過英文對話學習一下辭職的理由都有哪些吧!
Emily: Hey Lisa...want to grab lunch with me?
Lisa: Sure, Emily. We haven't done that in a while.
E: Yeah...actually, we haven't hung out at all recently. You seem sort of under the weather. Is there something going on?
L: Well, keep this under your hat, but I think I'm going to quit after New Year.
Emily問Lisa要不要一起吃飯,她在這里用的動詞是grab, grab lunch是一種常用的說法,意思是隨便買點午飯吃,也可以說to grab something to eat。Lisa跟Emily很久沒一起吃飯聊天了,we haven't hung out at all recently,to hang out意思是跟朋友待在一起,Emily還說Lisa看上去sort of under the weather,似乎有點不舒服,問她怎么回事。Lisa告訴Emily, 自己新年過后可能要辭職,但要Emily暫時保密,keep this under your hat. To keep something under one's hat意思是保守秘密,不要告訴別人。Emily聽到這個消息感到很突然。
E: Quit this company? Oh...wow.
L: I know I should be pretty happy here, but I'm not finding the kind of job satisfaction I need. I'm a good graphic designer...
E: One of the best in the company.
L: That's kind of you to say. But...the stuff we do here hasn't really challenged me very much at all.
E: Oh, I get it. Simply put: you're bored, huh?
L: That's one way of putting it. For me, a job needs to stimulate my brain, otherwise it becomes a daily drudgery.
Lisa是公司里最好的圖像設(shè)計師之一, 目前這份工作對她沒有挑戰(zhàn)性,simply put,簡單地說,她覺得現(xiàn)在的工作很無聊。Lisa說,她需要一份能讓她興奮起來的工作,否則的話,工作就變成了a daily drudgery,無聊乏味的工作。
L: Another thing is that I don't feel there is a decent chance of promotion. I've been here for three years and I'm doing the exact same thing at the exact same salary.
E: That's true...salaries have been frozen for a while and I hear next year it's the same story.
L: I'm finding that I spend a lot of time at work just sitting at my cubicle daydreaming or wasting time. I can's sleep on Sunday nights because I know I have to go back to work the next day.
E: Wow...it sounds like you're suffering from serious job dissatisfaction. I guess you really do need a change.
Lisa還說,想辭職的另外一個原因是覺得沒有升職的機會,There isn't a decent chance of promotion. Emily表示贊成,因為工資已經(jīng)有一段時間沒漲了,而且她聽說,next year it's the same story. 明年也是一樣。Lisa說,有時候上班就是在自己的小隔間里發(fā)愣,浪費時間,星期天晚上一想到第二天早上還要去上班,就睡不著覺??磥?,Lisa真是得換份工作了。
