Nowadays more and more people choose towork freelance instead of work for somebody else. It is a shame to workfreelance in the old days, people would said that the one who are self-employedis a lazy man, and this kind of job is not security, they fear of instability. However,the conception is changed, work freelance has been widely accepted by public,me included.

現在越來也多的人選擇做自由職業者而不是為某人工作了。在以前自由職業者是令人羞恥的，人們會說這種人很懶，還有這種工作沒保障，他們害怕不穩定。然而，現在觀念改變了，自由職業者已經被廣泛地接受了，包括我。

In the first place, one of the biggest advantagesof work freelance is that you are the master of your time. Once you areself-employed, you are able to manage your time by your own wish. You do nothave to get up very early in the morning, especially in a cold winter morning,and take a crowded bus in case you will not late for work, which links directlyto your salary. For me, I would love to stay home in my pajamas rather thanfight through traffic so I can sit in a cubicle all day.

第一，自由職業的最大優勢就是你是你時間的主人。一旦你當了自己的老板，你就可以按照自己的意愿去管理你的時間。你不必每天早上早早起床，尤其是在寒冷的冬天早晨，又去擠公車，省的自己遲到，這直接關系到你的工資。就我來說，我寧愿穿著睡衣在家里也不要艱辛地擠公車然后在辦公室的小格子里悶一天。

In the second place, work freelance is awonderful gift for an introvert. As you can see, if you are working outside,you can not avoid to working with others. It might be hard to deal withdifferent people in the office. There is one more thing that you can not avoid,which is your social duties, drinking and eating. You can’t say no to this, oryou will said bye to your job. As we know, too much food or wine is not goodfor our body, but as long as the cline feels happy, no one will care too muchof their body.

第二，自由職業是給內向的人一份美好的禮物。就像你所見到的，如果你在外面工作，你無法避免和其他人打交道。在辦公室和不同的人相處會很難。還有一件事你也無法避免，那就是交際應酬，喝酒吃飯。你不能對這個說不，不然你就對你的工作說拜拜吧。像我們所知道的，過量飲食喝酒對我們的身體不好，但是只要客戶覺得高興，誰管得了那么多身體呢。

To sum up, each type of work style has itsown advantages and disadvantages, it is your choice. I think working should bea happy thing, if it isn’t, your life will be a sadly hell.

總而言之，每種工作方式都有自己的優勢和劣勢，這是你的選擇。我認為工作應當是件快樂的事情，如果不是，那么你的生活就會變成一個可悲的地獄。
