Most of Taiwanese they don't like their work. What happens with that?
Once I have chatted with my forienger friend. He said to me "The bosses/companies don't respect the foreigners in Taiwan." Well, I answered him that "It's not only foreigners, yet is all people working in Taiwan."
In Taiwan, the employees don't have many counters to get a good right. Any fight you would get a loser in the end, or would lose your job. Perhaps This is the working characteristic of Taiwan. That's why people work more and more hard. They want to keep their job.
Under-people-say if you worked for top ten enterprises in Taiwan, you would get money and lose your time, freedom, familes and health. Do you know? There have 80% wage-earners who grumble their boss/company all the time, and Other 20% wage-earners don't grumble. Do you know why? Because they worked over 10 hours per day. They don't have time to grumble. Hahaha...
I think that most of people are fond of their job at the beginning. But After a few years, they have experienced many work stresses. You was lost in your job. You forgot it is your favourite job originally.
When I was child, my parents told me you had to study hard. Thereupon got a good job , good salary. Afterwards, I could gain satisfied life. All the parents told their children those words in Chinese culture. But is it? It's depend on every one. People evaluate a person through how much money he/she has got. Money is important, but still have many important stuff than money. Life is pressure; Nevertheless, we can't abandon other things for the money.
Therefore, considering that what you want in your life. No complaint you would have a brilliant life. Slow down your step, look round you and listen to your heart.
Enjoy your life, Enjoy your work.

I am the one who is really enjoying doing a job, and also from Taiwan. Due to only a few years of work experience, and none of them in a local company, I am not going to talk about how bad the current job circumstance in Taiwan is. However, I do have a couple of jobs, and I usually take pleasure in doing them, so I would like to share my some thoughts about a job.
What is a job? If a job is an essential part of life, it is important to understand what exactly is it? Most parents tell their children that they have to study hard so that they can get a better job in the future. This is the first idea about a job.

hello 我愛台妹:
No everybody is as lucky as you. Maybe you have a good education, a good chance...etc. Or you do not complain and content with your job.
However, I see you enjoy your job. ^_^
For people who were born just after World War II, it was true that people who got better education earned more money and made there life easier in those days. The expectations of their life are to feed themselves and married a good husband.
Time has changed. Nowadays one's income is not directly related to his or her education level. Our parents were not meant to cheat us. They just tried to teach us how to live based on their own experiences, which was suitable yesterday but may not be suitable today. Besides, the epectations to our lives are not limited to food and marriage anymore.
It is ourselves rather than our parents who should be responsible our own lives. So I think it will be better to take their advice as advice, and consider more.
I didn't find these until I've graduated from the school.
Hi Chi
I didn't say that the parents told to us those words if it were right or not.
Nevertheless, it's still right in Taiwanese society nowadays. Yet I don't want to talk about that.
Many people in Taiwan grew up in the patterns of the parents gave and their children took. Owing to this mode it makes the children lose their thinking ability. There have many students they don't know what they study for!
Perhaps I am the one who is too strict to them. I often see that the young people at present can't sustain pressures. They always live under the parents's protection. I don't want to judge them. But it's true. right?!
However, knowing what you want and what your goal is, it's very important for yourself.
this is irena~~
so...Cathy, do you love your job??
(噗ㄘ~~)

I don't have job. If the studying is my job, I would say I love my job.
