現在、私は４４歳。転職を繰り返し私を雇ってくれる会社がなく、やむなくタクシードライバーとして働いている。

でもやっぱり英語を使う貿易実務の仕事に戻りたい。そのために、英検1級、TOEIC９００点、貿易実務検定A級取得を目指して勉強中の身。

先日乗せたお客さんが新卒っぽい初々しい社会人の若い子で、改めて自分の人生を振り返ってみた。

そうだよな～。大学卒業までの間に普通は勉強を沢山して資格を取って、仕事を探すのが２０代だよな～。何の将来設計もせずに楽に働いていた２０代の派遣時代。正社員になったものの、転職ばかりの３０代。４０代になって慌てて勉強をして、まだ転職活動している自分が滑稽に思えてきた。

Sudden feelings - Life's problems

I am currently 44 years old. I have changed jobs many times and no company will hire me, so I am forced to work as a taxi driver.

But I still want to go back to working in trade, where I can use English. To achieve this, I am studying to obtain Grade 1 of the Eiken Test, a TOEIC score of 900, and a Grade A in Proficiency Test in Trading Business.

The other day I had a passenger who looked like a recent graduate, a fresh-faced young woman in the workforce, and it made me reflect on my own life.

That's right. In ordinary 20s, you usually study a lot, get qualifications, and look for work before graduating from university. In my case of 20s, I worked comfortably as a temp worker without planning for the future. In 30s, I became a full-time employee, but changed jobs a lot. In 40s, I study in a hurry, and it seems ridiculous that Iam still looking for a new job.
