Why are so many people unhappy in their jobs? Here are two primary reasons. First, some people are convinced that earning a living is wasting time that they could spend enjoying themselves or uncovering their true talents.
If this is the ease with you, recall your last long vacation. Was it two weeks of complete enjoyment7 More likely it was a week and a half of fun in the sun, with another half a week of "Boy, I can’t wait to get back to work." If you didn’t feel such Vacation blues, then imagine taking a leave of absence. You could use it to work on a novel, enroll in classes or just sit around watching TV. At the end of three months, in all likelihood, your self esteem would be at an all time low. While all work and no play are not good, all play and no work is disastrous. We need to feel we are accomplishing something. We also need some form of order in our lives.
The second and perhaps more prevalent reason for people not to like their work is that they feel trapped. Once you’ve been at a company for five year and have a spouse, a mortgage and a child, you often, feel you have very little choice about jumping ship if things aren’t turning out as you’d planned. A steady paycheck can be the biggest manacle of all. People resent having to do something because they have no other choice.
If you find yourself resenting your job because you can’t afford to quit, it may be time to prepare what one career counselor humorously calls a "cyanide capsule." He recalls spy movies in which the secret agent has such a capsule hidden somewhere on his body. If he’s captured and tortured unbearably, he has an option. And having air option gives him the strength to hold on a little longer in the hope that the situation may change.
Rather than cyanide, your option takes the form of an up to date resume. You might also take a weekly glance through the help wanted section, and make some visits to industry functions where low key networking can take place. You’re not giving up on your current job. Rather, you are providing yourself with an option. If things get unbearable at work, you could jump ship. Being in this position can do wonders for your attitude. It allows you to enjoy your work since, in reality; you are there only because you want to be.
At the core of adopting a positive attitude to your workplace is, above all, assuming responsibility for your own situation. Most people feel controlled by their environment, but they really aren’t. They have to learn to manage that environment so they can get from it what they need.
It can be inferred that the author ______.
选项
A、quite agrees with the "up to date resume" attitude
B、can hardly tolerate one’s complete enjoyment of life
C、tries to sound persuasive and convincing in his opinions about career blues
D、believes that one can not change his/her environment
答案
C
解析
逻辑推断题。A:很赞同“有一份适合时下的简历”的观点;B:绝对不能忍受只顾享乐的生活;C:在阐述自己对职业焦虑的观点时,努力保持具有说服力和令人信服的口吻;D:认为人改变不了自己所处的环境。本文是针对人们对工作失去兴趣的,C概括了作者的意图。A所涉及的内容位于最后一段首句,作者赞成对自己工作有责任感;B中作者并未对享受生活的态度表明看法,D的意思与原文相反。
