非正式會談：聊聊你心目中的理想工作狀態

受人生閱歷和生活環境等因素的影響，每個人對理想工作的看法會不一樣。本期，課高邀請了4位嘉賓，就“聊聊你心目中的理想工作狀態”為話題進行探討?？纯粗形鞣絻煞N思維模式的人，會怎樣看待這個問題？

女，25歲，居深圳

適合自己的就是最好的

我家是北方一個小縣城的，來深圳上大學才算第一次出來見世面，所以畢業之后也沒有回去。上學時被深圳的繁華所吸引，覺得大城市很好。直到真正開始工作，才發現大城市的壓力大、競爭也大。我之前看過智聯招聘發布的關于“白領年終獎”的一份研究報告：有22.3%的白領選擇將年終獎用于學習進修;16.6%的白領用于培訓充電，并且差不多96%的受訪者認為自己需要充電學習。這種情況在深圳是很普遍的，因為我的很多同事，包括我自己在內都會這樣做。一是怕自己在快節奏的職場中被淘汰，二是希望為自己的升職加薪做準備。而我留在縣城老家工作的同學則不同，他們的工作節奏相對慢些，也不是很愿意在下班后繼續為工作的事耗費精力。父母經常勸我回家，他們認為在小縣城工作壓力沒那么大，還能一家人在一起，生活會更幸福。但是我覺得，大城市的工作會讓我逼迫自己提升，我希望能變得更好，所以至少現階段，我覺得這種有壓力的工作對我來說是好的。

男，23歲，居四川

理想工作就是做喜歡的事

考大學時，父母給我報的專業是計算機，但是我從小就對寫作感興趣，初高中時還偷偷給雜志社投過稿。上了大學，我就更加肆無忌憚地開始寫作了，當然也偷偷看了不少專業書籍。幸運的是，我的愛好還是取得了一點成績，大學期間在一些征文比賽中獲過獎。大四實習，同學們都選擇了IT行業，我反而給媒體投簡歷，希望能和文字打交道。我很慶幸當初堅持了自己的愛好，大學畢業我回到家鄉四川，找了一份記者的工作，一直工作到現在。雖然每天在城市里穿梭，加班更是常事，但是我樂在其中，自己的業務能力也在實際工作的摸爬滾打中不斷提升，我覺得這就是理想的工作狀態。理想工作，無非就是對工作有動力，但有動力的前提，需要你對它感興趣。

A perfect job balances work & life

In the world today， all of the people needrecreation. We can't work all the time if we are goingto keep healthy and enjoy life. After my graduationfrom university， I have been an IT engineer. Butbecause of the pandemic， I have been working at homefor one and a half years. Nowadays， half of Britsfeel Covid-19 lockdown has given them the perfectchance of balancing work and life with more time toread， cook and exercise， so do I. The global pandemicand lockdown restrictions have had a huge impacton work-life balance for me for the better. I havemore time for myself， enjoying the slower life pace，exercising at home throughout the day and makingbreakfast in the morning. I think that my work-lifebalance to be perfect， and I could not achieve it withoutthe lockdown. Now， with the lifting of blockade， I amworried about maintaining it as life begins to returnto normal. Lockdown means I could slowdown， freeing up time I did not havebefore， and allowing myself to focus onthe things I enjoy and love themost. It is important to meto have a good work-lifebalance， and it makesme happier.

A four- day week is more attractive

Different from David， I am not worried aboutwork-life balance. In order to keep the total number ofpeople in employment high in Scotland， the governmentwill establish a ￡10 million fund to allow companiesto pilot and explore the benefits of a four-dayworking week. It will identify additional employmentopportunities and assess the economic impact ofmoving to a four-day week. And the First Minister saidthat Scots would also have free dental care and billionswould be invested into the NHS and infrastructurein the nation. Looking around Europe and seeingindependent countries of similar size to Scotland， I amamong the wealthiest， fairest and happiest in the world.With so many social welfares， some companies hereare looking into the prospect anyway. In fact， most ofcompanies in Scotland are considering bringing in afour-day working week after the pandemic. It meansI would benefit from the new move， as businesseslook at how to be more flexible post-lockdown. If itwould come true， not just I would have more time formy daily life， also it would boost productivity. For themost important， I think that a four-day week wouldgive much more opportunities to the growing list ofunemployed people. Through increased productivity，a four-day week would bring multiple benefits tothe society， the environment and our economy. Oneof the biggest impacts would be better mental healthand well-being across the board with more timeavailable for socializing， family and community. Ialready supported a four-day working week beforethe coronavirus pandemic hit， and now had a tasteof working remotely and on different hours. It's in noone's interests to go back to the pressure and stressthat people were under before this pandemic.
