十年如一日，清晨五时半。早安。
我总在破晓时分醒来，只为赶在汹涌的车流与人潮之前。这种生活习惯已经重复了十多年。这座城市的道路从不沉睡——除了2020年那些寂静的封控月份。
有人说，人类是由时间构成的。死亡始终在身后追赶，不断剥夺我们与所爱——或所憎之人——相伴的时光。而在工作中，我们追逐的“死亡”是截止日期。一个 deadline 后面紧跟着另一个，永无止境。Some say human are made up of time and dead is always chasing us from behind, reducing the time we have with our loved ones, or hated ones. In work, the only dead we chase are deadlines. And after deadlines comes more deadlines, and its a never-ending process.
人们常说“死后自能长眠”，而我因為截止日期，已经无数次感到濒临死亡。Though they say you can sleep forever when you are dead, but these deadlines have pushed me to the brink, I’ve felt on the verge of death countless times.
没有人会喜欢自己现在的公司。很多人都会天天骂上司。但是往往，跳槽到别家公司以后，就会恍然发现，其实新公司没有上一家公司好，新老板没有旧老板好，新同事没有旧同事亲。但是基于人性，没有人会承认。For the job, I love it, but I am not permitted to love it too much because of the company. I hate it, but I am not allowed to hate it too much because it pays.
Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.
