Profession Quotes

“Making a product is just an activity, making a profit on a product is the achievement.”

“Even though change is an important part of growth, we still face a hard time liking it. We try to resist it for as long as we can before giving up. Not just in our personal lives, but even in our professional lives”

“Faerie stones can be found in a variety of regions, being particularly common in Cornwall and the Isle of Man. They are unimpressive in appearance and hard to recognize with the untrained eye; their most distinguishing feature is their perfect roundness. They seem primarily to be used to store enchantments for later use or perhaps for the purposes of gift-giving. Danielle de Grey's 1850 Guide to Elfstones of Western Europe is the definitive resource on the subject. (I am aware that many dryadologists today ignore de Grey's research on account of her many scandals, but whatever else she was, I find her a meticulous scholar.) A faerie stone with a crack down it has been spent and is thus harmless. An intact stone should be left untouched and reported to ICAD, the International Council of Arcanologists and Dryadologists.”

“The purpose of a profession is to fulfil the personal wishes of a prospect.”

“便利商店賣咖啡,「整個城市都是我的咖啡館」,多好的廣告。美式咖啡一杯二十五元,小杯拿鐵三十元,有時還買一送一,買大送小,不用本錢似的。可是還是有人偏偏要去店裡喝一杯九十元、一百一的拿鐵、卡布其諾,尤其是焦糖拿鐵,據說是招牌,我知道為什麼,不是因為店長漂亮啦,又不是每個人都是豬哥。我們有個店員也很漂亮啊,上班不到三個月就被把走了。我覺得阿布咖啡這種店賣的是氣氛,你看我們就這麼緊鄰著,我有時也會聞到咖啡香,烘焙蛋糕的氣味會從後面防火巷傳過來,我去後頭倉庫整理貨的時候,會流口水,真的止都止不住,交換班的時候,我也會晃過去往裡頭瞧,隔著一層玻璃,像隔開一個世界,我們在這裡叮咚,歡迎光臨,跑斷腿在那裡結帳、收銀、煮咖啡、賣霜淇淋、影印、傳真、收包裹、發傳真、收水電費、拿演唱會的票、收宅配,簡直像是萬事通,我媽都笑我說以前啥都不會,現在什麼都會,如果店裡開始賣牛肉麵,我一點也不會覺得奇怪,真的,便利商店,早晚會把雜貨店、超市、郵局、洗衣店、快餐店、咖啡店,這個那個所有的店都取代了,那時我們的生活就完了,微波、速食、廉價,什麼都變得廉價淺薄了,就像我們這種員工一樣,我啥都會,可是出去其他地方,也等於什麼都不會,我們學的這些,真的到專業的店裡,也用不上。”

“The first 10 years of my professional life had only to do with running away from my father. He was a wonderful cabinet-maker, and me being the eldest son, I had to take over his shop, his profession and so on and so on. I tried to escape by going to art school and then going on to industrial design and then interior design.”

“Intern will resonate not only with doctors, but with anyone who has struggled with the grand question 'What should I do with my life?' In a voice of profound honesty and intelligence, Sandeep Jauhar gives us an insider's look at the medical profession and also a dramatic account of the psychological challenges of early adulthood.”
