OK, so this comes up a lot when people make career decisions.
当人们选择职业的时候经常会出现这种情况。
A friend of mine from college always wanted to be a film reviewer.
我的一个大学朋友以前一直都想当一名电影评论员。
He was a film major and he loved movies. Most of all, he loved to write about movies.
他读的是电影专业而且很爱看电影。最重要的是，他很爱写一些跟电影相关的东西。
So, when he graduated, he looked for a job as a film reviewer for a newspaper,
所以，他毕业之后找的都是在报社担任电影评论员的工作，
because as a film reviewer, he gets to see films for free and would be paid to write about them.
因为作为一位电影评论员，他可以免费看电影，还会有人付钱请他写影评。
That's what he loved! But, he couldn't find the job as a film reviewer.
那正是他爱好的事情！可是，他找不到电影评论员的工作。
So, he took a position as a news reporter instead, for a newspaper,
于是就接受了一份在报社担任新闻记者的工作，
investigating stories, writing about events, what news reporters do.
整天就是进行新闻调查，为大小活动写稿子等等那些新闻记者该做的事。
Now, at first, my friend wasn't sure if he'd be any good at this.
最开始，我朋友并不确定自己能否胜任这份工作。
He'd never been as a news reporter before.
他以前从没当过新闻记者。
But, eventually, he adjusted and gained confidence and he got used to the job.
不过最终，他还是适应了下来，渐渐获得了信心并且习惯了这份工作。
And he realized he was actually a pretty good reporter.
而这时他才意识到自己原来是个很不错的记者。
Anyway, here's the thing: after a few years,
不管怎样，事实是：几年之后，
the film reviewer for the newspaper where he worked, quit, and my friend was offered her job.
为他们报社工作的电影评论员辞职了，而我的朋友得到了机会接手她的工作。
This was his dream, right? His opportunity to be a film reviewer had finally come!
这曾经是他的梦想啊，不是吗？他成为一名电影评论员的机会终于到来了！
And the new job would actually pay more, too.
而且这份新工作的薪酬也更高。
But, did he take the job? No! He turned it down.
可是，他接受了这份工作吗？没有！他拒绝了。
He told me he'd gotten used to being a news reporter and he just didn't want to try something else.
他告诉我他已经习惯当一名新闻记者了，不想尝试其他工作。
It seemed like too big of a change, since, well, there was a chance that the new job might not work out.
鉴于那份新工作有可能会失败，所以接受的话会发生的变化未免太大了。
