Speaking exercise

two weeks late, i will be change to a new position. I will quit my job after spring festival, after i got the year bonus, because our bonus is five months salary. If i can get some good job several month later, I’m not care about the bonus. Another reason why i haven’t changed my job is, the job I’m working now is so meaningless, that’s my disadvantage to apply for a new job. I used to think the job is related to exploring market, or negotiation with companies, but actually, the work is about making phone calls, between our branch and corporation companies. Many people like me can’t change the job, these companies can’t give us the salaries, when we want to get a high salary as the same as my own company, our working experience can’t make any function/ irrelevant.
