I was looking to move into a managerial role, and applied for jobs all over the country, as I was prepared to live anywhere. To my surprise, got two offers, both from pretty well-known companies. There was very little to choose between them, but my working environment is very important to me, and this place had just been completed. The salary wasn't quite so good, but I felt that the benefits outweighed the disadvantages, so I came here.
我想担任一个管理者的角色,然后我申请了全国各地的工作,因为我已准备好在各地生活。令我惊讶的是,我找到了两份工作,分别来自两个非常知名的公司。这两个公司之间没什么好选的,但是工作环境对我来说非常重要,而且这个地方刚刚完工。这里的薪水并不是特别好,但是我感觉选择这个公司的利大于弊,所以我来到了这里。

On the whole I was happy where I was, working in a new, very well-designed building, nice colleagues, and the company provided plenty of training. But I was stuck behind a desk all day. Then I saw the ad for my present job -similar field of work, just a different way of doing it - and decided to apply. Now I'm on the road most of the time, meeting people, and I get to go abroad as well, which is great.
我对自己之前的工作大体上是满意的,工作地点是一个新的、设计非常棒的办公楼里,同事们都很好,公司也会提供很多培训。但是我得在办公桌前坐一天。然后我看到了我现在工作的招聘广告-相似的工作领域,只是工作的方法是不一样的-我决定申请试试。现在我大部分时间都在路上,和人见面,我也可以出国,这很棒。
