身為現代人，因為資訊越來越發達，競爭越來越激烈，許許多多的煩惱和壓力一點一滴的加諸在每個人身上，尤其現在物價上漲，薪水又停滯不前，經濟壓力我想應該是許多人煩惱的事情之一。如此之外，身為學生的人，最大的擔心就是畢業之後的出路，因為在現在的世代，學校成績得第一並不代表出社會就可以得到最棒的工作。反而，學業念的越高，越難找到工作，因為現在的公司越來越講求社會歷練和團隊合作。你在學校成績拿高分，不代表你就可以在企業中生存，軟性技能 (soft skills) 才是成為領導人的重要能力。求學過程中，你也許會有機會學到一些soft skills和 team work，不過大部分都還是著重在理論方面。所以重要的是，要如何把學校學到的知識，轉化並活用在工作上面，這才是企業希望找的人才特質。小編在社會上打滾了幾年之後，才漸漸找到自己想走的方向，其實，剛開始出社會大多數的人都不清楚自己畢業後想做甚麼工作，當初我也是告訴自己，沒甚麼好擔心的，反正有甚麼樣的工作機會就先嘗試看看，不管喜不喜歡，總是會學到和獲得一些東西，等到有些經驗了，就可以慢慢的開始挑選自己想要的，不是嗎?

What makes you worry and why?
Here's what people in London said:
Er, irrational things, things I might havesaid to people… and then I might realise two weeks later that I've beenworrying over nothing.
Would you describe yourself as a worrier?
Definitely, yeah. (laughs)
What makes you worry and why?
I suppose the biggest worry at the moment is your employment prospects at the end of university. I think a lot of people are looking into, like, furthering their education more as opposed to applying for jobs right now. We're not going to get a job unless we're really,really, really outstanding now because there's so much more competition.
What makes you worry and why?
University-wise it has to be deadlines, and looming dissertation. Um, but also, money is obviously a big issue. And getting a job next year when I graduate. That's a big worry. But I don’t know, I'm pretty optimistic it'll all sort itself out.
So you wouldn't describe yourself as aworrier then?
I do have my moments of being a worrier,but I think I've just resigned myself to fate at the moment, and like, crossing my fingers, and hoping for the best.
