接受工作的原因(2/2)

When I applied, I did a crash course in a computer programme I hadn't used before, because the advert said knowledge of it would be an advantage. That helped me get the job, so it was money well spent. The pay's no better, but with share options and things on top, it was worth changing. I miss the place where I used to work, though, which was inconvenient but had character. You certainly can't say that about these modern office blocks. The job was getting more and more demanding. And with the commuting on top of it, I had very little time for other things. My new job is based just as far from my home, but the advantage is the direct rail link, which means I spend half as long travelling to work. I'm doing much the same as before, organising a training programme, though now it's for a company in a different sector.

当我申请的时候，我参加了一个之前没有接触过的关于计算机程序的速成班，因为广告上说具备这方面的知识对你有好处。这课程确实帮助我得到了这份工作，所以这钱花得值。工资不是很高但是能拥有购股权以及接触到高层，这工作也值得。我想念我以前工作的地方，不是有时蛮麻烦的，不过却很有个性。你确实不能说这些现代化的办公室大厦。 这份工作要求越来越严格。在上下班的高峰期，我没有多少时间做其他事情。我的新工作离我家也不近，但是有铁路直接到达，这意味着我只需要花以前的一半时间就能到公司了。我以前也做过类似的工作，组织培训计划，虽然在现在任职公司不同的部门。
