| 摘要： | I wish I'd known the importance of a work-life balance. As a new civil engineer, I spent the first two years right out of college trying to learn everything I could. Work became my life. I had no hobbies and no friends outside work. As a result, I soon lost touch with things that are equally important, like personal relationships and trying new experiences. Working at a large engineering consulting firm in downtown Philadelphia, I naively thought that hustling came with the job and that I was expected to be on my toes all day. I pulled many all-nighters, working on as many projects as I could, never saying no to senior engineers. I spent hours of my personal time solving problems that could've easily been solved by senior professionals at work. All I had to do was ask, but I felt that I might come off as weak if I asked someone for help. My drive to learn was so visible that a fellow engineer thought I was "still living life like I was in college," and it wasn't long before I realized there was some truth to it. |
