Word on the street
职业基因 zhí yè jī yīn
One’s character decides what kind of job he/she chooses.
A: My new job is much better than the last one, I’ve been given a raise after only a few months!
我的新工作比之前的那个好多了,刚工作几个月就加薪了!
(wǒ de xīn gōng zuò bǐ zhī qián de nà gè hǎo duō le ,gāng gōng zuò jǐ gè yuè jiù jiā xīn le !)
B: Congratulations. Maybe this one is more adapted to your character. You are outgoing, talkative and
responsive, so the job as a salesman suits you a lot.
恭喜你。也许这个工作更符合你的职业基因吧。你外向、善谈而且反应敏捷,做销售工作很适合你。
