We were just about getting ready to warm up for the practice game over the weekend when I had an interesting conversation with one of the team mates I actually didn't know quite well.
周末的时候,当我们正要为即将到来的游戏热身,团队成员中有一个我其实不太了解的成员和我进行了一场有趣的对话。
"So what do you do?" he asked. "Well, we work for ourselves, we run a software company", I replied. "Oh really! that's awesome! I work for xyz company, but you know I always wanted to get into animation design and work for myself. It was my dream. I got stuck in the wrong industry."
“你是做什么工作的?”他问道。“嗯,我们为自己打工,我们开了一个软件公司”我回答。“真的?那真是太棒了!我为XX公司工作,但你知道我一直想做动画设计,想做自由职业。那是我的梦想。我现在被困在一个错误的行业里。”
"You ain't dead yet, are you?" I thought trying hard not say that aloud. He continued "You know, I've been wanting to do this for 10 years now, but once you have a family, it's very tough to do anything else."
“你不还没死呢吗……” 我挣扎着没把这句吼出来。他继续说:“你知道吗?我想做这行都有十年了,但是一旦你有了家庭,那想要再做点儿别的事就难了。”
