Around spring festival, i feel disappointed because i was working in the previous company, everyday I worked overtime and no weekend. In our industry, working overtime has no pay. If they pay us, it will be more than our salary. I don’t think it’s not good to work overtime, but physically I feel tired because of working overtime, but emotionally, I don’t like my boss. She’s a very demanding, I feel so anxious. I remember it’s the latest thing that made me feel disappointed. Although I only had one client, but every week i have to have meeting with them, even with very small things. I think it’s very waste of time. I don’t have business trip, so i need to stay at office to write ppt. But I’m very happy because I quit the job and I even deleted my ex boss wechat. I’m so regret, because when my mom said you should to be a teacher, because it’s so boring. but now it’s a very happy thing to be a teacher, because you don’t need to work so much long time.

In our industry, there’s no additional pay for working overtime. If they pay us, it will be more than our salary. I don’t think it’s not good to work overtime, physically I feel tired because of working overtime, but emotionally, I don’t like my boss. She’s a very demanding person/ she’s very demanding, I feel so anxious around her. I remember it was the latest thing that made me feel disappointed. Although I only had one client, but every week i had to meet with them, even for very small matters. I think it’s a huge/big waste of time. I don’t have any business trips, so i need to stay in the office to do ppt. I’m very happy because I‘ve already quit the job and I even deleted my ex/ previous boss’ wechat. I’m very regretful of my current job; when I was younger, my mom said you should be/become a teacher, but I thought it would be boring.  now I realize it’s a very happy thing to be a teacher, because you don’t need to work for a long time.
