值不值得,只有自己能衡量

It was a Friday morning， 7：30a.m. I felt too lazy todrive my car， so my son booked an uber. In five minutes，the uber reached at the entrance gate， waiting for my arriv-al. Ijust saw the cab number and entered inside the car. Iwas so busy that I didn ' t pay any attention towards the driv-er. I was searching for an important paper from my leatherbag， so instantly said， "Please， go quick！ I'm in a hurry ！ "

The voice came， "Yes， Ma ' am！ "

I was literally surprised when I heard a female voice！ Istopped my work for a second and looked at the driver. Thedriver was a young lady. Maybe， around thirty or thirty-two ！ For the first time， I saw a lady， driving an uber！

The car was running on the national high-way towardsthe destination. It was quite a distance from my home. Shewas driving perfectly well. Hundred times， I had travelledin uber， but never I saw any lady， driving an uber！ I didn' tknow， why I became so enthusiastic to know why she hadchosen this profession. I started the conversation， "If youdon't mind， can I ask you some questions？ "

"Yes， ma'am！ No problem. "

"I guess， you are well qualified！ "

"Yes， ma ' am！ I have completed my education. I havedone my MBA course.

"Oh， wow！Why did you then choose this profession，instead of going for an academic career？"

I could see her face in the rear view mirror. She smiledand the way she expressed her views， I was really amazed！

Very politely， she said， "Driving was my passion frommy childhood， ma' am！ Of course I do respect each and ev-ery job. In this case， at least I fulfilled my desire！ I lovedriving！ I don' t mind for big or small job. I wanted a jobwhere I can get satisfaction. I got offers from m.n.c but thisone I preferred because I like itl I know， I can' t getenough money out of it， yet as I told you'I love driving' ！That's it！ "

那是一個周五的早晨7点半，我懒得开车，儿子帮我在优步上订了一辆车。短短5分钟，车就到了门口，等着我上车。我扫了一眼车牌，然后就上车了。我忙着做自己的事情，也顾不上抬头看一眼司机。我翻着做自己的皮包找文件，随便说道：“请快一点，我赶时间。”

只听声音传来：“好的，女士。”

让我感到惊讶的是，我听到一个女性的声音，我放下手头的工作，看了一眼司机，只见是一个年轻的女性，大概在30或32岁左右，这是我第一次看到一个女司机开优步。

汽车在高速路上朝着目的地行进，目的地离我家很远，她开车的技术很好。我在优步上坐车数不清有多少次了，我还是第一次看见一个女司机！我自己也不知道为什么莫名兴奋，想要了解她为什么会选择这样一个职业。于是我开启了谈话：“如果你不介意，我能问你几个问题吗？”

“当然不介意，女士。”

“我猜你肯定受过高等教育，”

“是的女士，我完成了我的学业，工商管理学硕士的课程。”

“天哪，那你为什么选这行，而不是开启学术生涯？”

我从反光镜里能看到她的脸，她都是面带微笑表达她的想法，我被震撼到了。

她很有礼貌的回答道：“从我的孩提时期，我就对开车有着热情，当然我尊重每一份工作，目前能够开车，也算是达成我的愿望。我不在乎工作的大小，而在乎自己内心是否得到满足，我拿到来自m.n.c公司的职位邀约，但是我还是喜欢我目前的工作，因为我真心热爱。虽然收入不会很高，但是我喜欢开车，这就够了。”
