In fact, many students work part-time as waiter and waitress but it is just temporary job（临时工作）. As soon as they graduate from college, they will compete to get a position in office because white-collar workers （白领）are still more preferable than blue-collar workers（蓝领）.

（认真解读一些白领和蓝领的概念显得我有认真思考过）

甚至让人陷入“选工作的时候你到底是听你妈的还是听老师的”送命题

Well I would say it depends. While teachers would have a better knowledge of student’s academic performance, parents will know their kids’ personalities the most. In terms of job market, I suppose they have equal amount of knowledge. Therefore, it is the best for the young to consult with whoever they feel more comfortable with.（好好好 你俩都重要）

有些时候还需要接受“钱和爱好你选哪一个”的灵魂拷问：

It is said that “If you love your job, you won’t have to work a day in your life” and I completely believe in it. For me, I can’t imagine myself get stuck in a nine-to-five job（朝九晚五） without any job satisfaction（工作满意度）.

被考官感受到对工作的热情和对人生理想的热爱时，就要小心他会问“你觉得大家是不是都工作压力越来越大了呀还休息挺少的，工作跟生活的平衡你怎么看呀”？

Yes, I think so. We are living in an increasingly competitive world （竞争力大）and there is no doubt that the labour market is getting more selective. Students from top universities will have higher chance of being hired, and even after that, they are likely to be exploited by excessive workload （过多的工作量）and constant pressure（持续的压力）. Therefore, maintaining work-life balance is vitally important for workers.
