11、員工與公司的磁場也要合

在Amy在家休息的一周中，她總是在跑東跑西地準備搬家要帶的東西。Nancy有時間的時候也去幫忙。要帶的行李很多，女孩子就是這樣，尤其是像Amy這樣fashionable（時尚的）、愛打扮的女孩子，光衣服就有三大箱子，另外還有一些生活用品呀，書籍呀，洋娃娃呀，又滿滿地裝了兩個suitcase（箱子）。隨身帶著肯定是unpractical（不現(xiàn)實）了，于是兩個人便叫了post office（郵局）要求door-to-door（門對門）的delivery service（投遞服務(wù)）。因為行李太多，光delivery fee（快遞費）就花了500塊“大洋”。

Amy訂了周日上午九點去上海的飛機票，Nancy抱怨這個flight time（航班時間）選得不太好，大周末的不讓她睡個好覺。但是好朋友出遠門，無論如何都得爬起來送她。周日Nancy起了個大早，匆匆趕到Amy家，兩個人打車趕到機場時已經(jīng)是八點零五分了，她們正急著沖向security check entrance（安檢口）時。忽然聽到廣播里傳來“因為天氣原因，從北京飛往上海的航班推遲起飛，登機時間另行通知?！边@讓兩個人簡直要抓狂了，起了這么一個大早，趕到機場，現(xiàn)在不知道還要等多久了。沒有別的辦法，只得先找個地方等著。

轉(zhuǎn)了一圈，兩人在Starbucks坐了下來，各要了一杯Espresso（意大利濃縮咖啡）提提神。她們剛坐下，就有個金發(fā)女郎款款走過來，跟Nancy打招呼。Nancy乍一看沒認出來這個人，再仔細一看，竟然是去年離開Innovo的Joanna。一年不見，她看起來變化很大，更加fashionable了，但還是那么活力四射，帶著一臉燦爛的笑容。Nancy趕緊幫Amy和Joanna互相作了介紹。當Joanna得知Amy是在她離開Innovo不久加入這家公司的時候，禁不住笑了出來。Nancy明白她的想法。去年這個時候，本來在Innovo干得很好的Joanna，突然提出quit（辭職），就從Innovo disappear（消失）了，第二天大家才知道，她是被hunter挖到了另一家Canadian（加拿大的）公司。因為Joanna走后和原來的同事都沒有了什么contact（聯(lián)系），大家漸漸地都快把她忘記了。沒想到今天在機場再次遇到了她。談起各自現(xiàn)在的情況，Nancy先講起了Innovo這一年來的發(fā)展變化，之后她問Joanna新的工作怎么樣。Joanna眉飛色舞地開始講述她的經(jīng)歷。

　　Career Development

Make a long-term development plan.

Make decision and choice in time.

Salary and welfares are also critical in choosing a job.

Go ahead with your goal and don't give up.

What's it like? I'm quite happy. There are good promotion prospects if you're interested. And there's a very good training scheme. At the moment — did I tell you? — I'm considering a transfer to another division. But I'll tell you about that in a minute. Apart from that… Well, salaries are quite competitive; there's a generous profit-sharing scheme too. There's also a five-week holiday allowance, which is better than a lot of firms.

What else is there to say? A company car, of course. Quite a good pension scheme. That's it. The only thing I wasn't happy about was the fact that when I started the job, the relocation expense weren't very generous; you know, buying a new house, moving the family, all that sort of things cost money. Anyway, I survived it.

To be honest, I feel much better here. I am not sweet-talking to join us if you are not interested. So you are happy with Innovo so far, right? I don't really understand that. There must be something special about the company you would like to work for. Innovo is definitely not my type. It is no problem for you. So, lucky you.

看來Joanna對她的新工作還是挺滿意的，但Nancy心里一直有個question mark（問號），Innovo的待遇也不錯啊，怎么當年就留不住Joanna呢？這個機靈的姑娘看出了Nancy的疑問，她說：“其實呀，工作也是講緣分的，有些公司雖然很好，可就是不適合你，這也是沒有辦法的事情?！边@句話引發(fā)了Nancy的思考：如果說工作也要講緣分，那么自己和Innovo應(yīng)該算是很有緣分的吧。
