謝謝ANGELA
這是一位網友給我的留言, 和Angela是不認識的, 但她卻很關心我, 我是估不到她會給我一大篇的回應, 看了幾次, 覺得心裡好過了, 在這裡,真的要多謝她~!她說的話確實很有道理,所以我在這裡公開了(Angela,不介意吧?)但, 我最後, 都做了一個對公司和對自己殘忍的決定, 我真的辭了職, 即使我公司以強大金額挽留我利誘我...), 我覺得, 還是應該再學多些東西。

Dear Queenie,Nice to meet you! I read your message.Don't see it that way. You did learn something from your job, although you may not be able to apply the technical knowledge, you learn other things that are useful in every job, e.g. interpersonal skills, attention to details, sense of responsibility, etc. And definitely, your university education is not a waste. I always think that (you have to grow a bit old to realize that, I guess you are still very young) the university education just provides you with some very basic, things like critical thinking, independent learning, problem solving skills. These are very generic things that are useful in whatever job you choose to have. I know a lot of people whose jobs have nothing to do with their degree, e.g. a Putonghua teacher who studied electronic engineering in the university, a fashion designer who studied business, a university administrator who studied psychology.I think for most people, when they first get into the university, they are too young to make an informed choice. Most of us don't really know what our major is about until we finish year 1. My major is business, but as time goes by, I realize that I like translation and art history better. (I didn't transfer to other disciplines because I wanted to graduate on time and all people said it's easier to get a job.)Each of our experience is valuable in the sense that you either get something you want or you learn a lesson from it. If you don't get what you desire and also miss the lesson, then it's a genuine waste.Since you have a degree, it'll be easier for you to switch to other fields. It may be difficult and you may have to suffer some reduction in salary. You have to ask yourself whether the benefit is worth the cost. Also, except the long working hours, do you like your job? Long working hours are quite common nowadays, even in other industries, so be careful, otherwise you'll be jumping from the frying pan into the fire.....You may start sending out application letters and go for interviews. It will take some time before you can land at a suitable job, so if you really want a change, you should start doing something!I don't want to sound like I'm lecturing you. Just want to share with you my experience, old people like that :)
Best wishes,
Angela

Dear Queenie,
不用多謝我,我只是比較多口,又喜歡說教.(人老了就是這樣的.)難得你不覺我長氣.
我覺得有時聽聽人家的經驗,自己也會有所得著.不是說別人比你強,那些也可能也是他們碰過不少釘子後累積到的一點智慧.
那你未來的計劃怎樣?要找製衣業的工作嗎?希望一切順利!
還有,你做的蛋糕漂亮死了,你是看書自學的,或是上那些cake lesson學的呢?很羨慕你,我也喜歡做蛋糕,但資質差,雞手鴨腳,有機會你要指點指點我.昨晚我上了一堂,學做了朱古力慕士蛋糕,還學做了一朵朱古力玖瑰花,很開心,但不知自己做會否成功,因為老師一定是見我太「論盡」,很多步驟他都幫我做了...

p.s. A busy bee has no time for sorrow, 得閒整多d餅啦!
DEAR ANGELA,
告訴你,我以前也是叫ANGELA的,因為我覺得這是一個好漂亮的名字,但亦因為我不漂亮,覺得這個名不太襯我,所以我便改了做QUEENIE,像親切些,也因為我英文名字有一個"KING"字,所以QUEENIE便跟了我十年了~!
所以潛意式的我對你有一份無名的好感~!
其實我並不覺得你年紀大(雖然我還不知你的年齡),我也是一個年紀不輕的人呀...(所以我不愛生日)我的蛋糕是自學的,我只是上了一個網頁,開始做我的第一個蛋糕, 幸好成功了,令我有信心的再接再勵,於是每天都在那兒逛,所有東西都在那裡學回來的呀~!

你有空也可以上去看看呢!
其實我也想參加那些蛋糕班的,我也在留意呢!可以把你的作品給我看嗎?
是的,我把工作辭退了,因為有家製衣公司請了我,人工不是很高,而且還不近家, 不過我巳經有心理準備接受這挑戰了!你會支持我嗎?
多謝你這麼快回我的EMAIL呀~!
ANGELA,
有沒有到過我新的甜品網頁呀?
