E: I haven't met you at the gym for a long time.
B: yeah, I quit my job, and started working from home. Recently I've got a project to deal with and don't have much time to work out.
E: why? You have a decent salary, lots of promotion opportunities and a regular life of going to the office at 9 o' clock and coming back home at 5 in the evening.
B: it's not about pay raise or promotion. You know,I hate getting up early in the morning and coming back home late at night.
E: then SOHO is your ideal work style.
B: yeah, as long as I have a computer and internet access, I can start working. I recently enjoy working in my own place and at my own pace.
E: and you don't have to work under that much pressure and control.
B: absolutely. I can decide when and what to do all by myself.
E: sounds great. Are there many business opportunies?
B: yea, I can find enough online.
E: it's good to have business around. But you should also do some exercise to keep fit.
B: thank you for reminding me. I'll continue to exercise as soon as I finish this project.
好久没在健身俱乐部看见你了.
是啊,我辞职了,在家里工作.最近在忙一个项目,没时间出来锻炼.
为什么辞职?你原来的工资不错,升职机会多,朝九晚五的生活也很规律.
我辞职不是为了加薪或者升职,要知道,我讨厌每天早早起床,却很晚才回家.
那SOHO是你理想工作模式.
没错,只要我有太电脑,能上网,就可以工作.我喜欢在自己家里按自己的节拍工作.
而且还没那么多压力,不用受人控制.
就是,我想做什么,什么时候做,都可以自己决定.
听起来不错.生意机会多不多?
恩,在网上能找到很多机会.
有生意就好.可你也得锻炼,保持身体健康啊.
谢谢你提醒我.这个项目一做完我就会继续锻炼身体了.
