071: Which would you choose: a high-paying job with long hours that would give you little time with family and friends or a lower-paying job with shorter hours that would give you more time with family and friends? Explain your choice, using specific reasons and details.
Nowadays, our society is developing unexpectedly that people always follow the flow of life. At a result, they are seemed hardly to have their own time spending with their families. Thus, I would rather choose a high-paying job with long hours so that I am in capable to well-prepared for my future even though I won’t have much time with my parents and friends. First of all, I convincingly believe that I am too young for enjoying my life sonly. Having a high salary, in some how, helps me to save money for my future. By doing this, I can purchase a beautiful house containing a wide garden which is full of flowers and trees to have fun with my children or grandchildren whenever they visit me at the weekend. Naturally, I think that it is much better than just spending on recreation such as shopping, playing game, etc. Besides, how can I lately nurture my children when they grow up as if they must study a lot? This, however, encourage me to get much money as I can at the moment in order to firmly provide a good life condition to my family. Secondly, the more money you get, the more pressure will go along with. In order to get a high salary job, you must overcome a huge amount of pressure because if it’s too easy for everyone to get a these kinds of job, why should people attempt to learn and try their best? From suffering this pressure, many things will be showed to me that I can learn how to deal with my staffs, my employees or even my boss. I believe that life is a chain of courage and difficulties, which can train people efficiently, and such a high pressure environment can give me plenty of experience and patient in life. The last but not least, i want to prove myself in this society. I will totally proud of my self as the way people see me is in respectfulness. From getting this job, I can enjoy the modern technology such as air conditioner, nice car and many things else, which won’t appear to me if I choose a lower-paying job. In conclusion, I understand that love is the most meaningful thing in life. However, a man, in my thinking, must do such an amazing thing and leave the lower-paying job for his wife so that she can teach more efficient their children. |
