周黎明：砧板上的事业

当人们谈论大学毕业生毕业后去摆摊这类话题时，他们感到痛惜的是这些学生们浪费了在学校所学的东西。但事实却并非完全如此。绝大部分年轻人茫然地进入到大学，他们并不知道自己的喜好会是什么。当他们发现自己并不喜欢自己所学时，业已太晚。一些人在找到自己一生的事业之前，常常要耗费数年时间在不同的领域探索，而另一些人则一生都处在探索过程中。如果你以从事与所学专业无关的工作的中国大学毕业生数量来看，那么以上所指的浪费现象就是一个必然的结果了。

Lu and Chen are very different cases. Lu wanted the conventional job, but could not get it. He has never been comfortable with the butcher's job. The farthest he has gone is to make do on grounds of legal propriety: "I did not steal or rob. It's an honest living. There's nothing to be ashamed of." But the traces of humiliation are everywhere. Chen, on the other hand, has the adventurous streak in his genes. For him, a job as a clerk, no matter how well it pays, is frustrating. Worldly and restless, he is cut out for the self-made job. He also says he is quite "dictatorial", which probably means he is not comfortable working as an employee. He has to be his own boss. The fact that he sells meat and produce is almost beside the point - a point not raised in the media reports anyway.

陆步轩和陈生是两个特例。陆步轩曾想要一份传统的工作，但没能找到中意的。他从未对屠夫这个工作感到舒心过。他做的做好的就是脚踏实地地做合法生意：“我不偷不抢，我这是靠诚信经营过日子。这没什么好感到羞耻的。” 但耻笑声到处都是。而另一个案例的情况却大不一样。陈生凭借着自己的聪明才智，在事业上一路高歌。对他而言，文员这种工作，无论薪酬多高，都是无聊至极的。世故且不安分的他辞去了工作，白手起家。他还说过，他很独断专行，这很可能意味着他不安于为人打工。他要做自己的老板。他去卖肉和农产品这件事几乎是次要的——但媒体也未曾报道过重要的那一点。
