So, if you guys remember, we did an episode on side gigs, side hustles, with Brianna Caza, and that was when I talked about starting this little side business of selling vintage clothing.

如果你们还记得,我们和布里安娜·卡扎一起做过一集副业,我说要做的副业卖古着。

I am obsessed with searching for vintage treasures.

It’s my favorite thing to do and has been for many years.

So, I started selling items on Etsy and started doing outdoor vintage markets.

我考虑了很长一段时间,我觉得我一直在推迟最终决定。

But I would say that this is a great work environment, and I have really liked working for HBR.

I think there’s good work-life balance, and I love the people that I work with.

我认为工作和生活有很好的平衡,我喜欢和我一起工作的人。

But I think coming out of the pandemic, it’s been a long time of feeling like, Oh, all this shit is happening at me, to me, on me, and then feeling like, OK, time for me to make some decisions.

但我认为,从疫情中走出来,很长一段时间以来,我都感觉到,哦,所有这些坏事都发生在我身上,然后我觉得,好吧,我该做一些决定了。

My job was not overwhelming in any way or too difficult in any way, but I am definitely feeling burnt out.

So, at this point, it’s like I can’t continue to spend a third of my life -- because that’s what a work day is.

因此,这时候,我不能继续这样度过我生命中的三分之一——因为工作日占生命的三分之一。

I can’t continue to spend a third of my life feeling this way in my job, and I want to feel challenged in new ways.

我不能再把生命中三分之一的时间花在这种工作上,我想要以新的方式接受挑战。

I want to feel like I’m creating great work, and I just… I still am desiring that feeling and I’m getting little bits and pieces of that from just doing the vintage stuff on the side.

我想让自己觉得我正在创造伟大的作品,我只是…我仍然渴望那种感觉,我只是在一边做复古的东西,一边一点点地找那种感觉。

But having limited time to do that, I want more of it.

但由于时间有限,我想要更多的时间。

Are you thinking of maybe turning the vintage clothing gig into a full-time?

你有没有想过把做复古服装的工作变成全职工作?

I think it’s going to probably be full-time for a few months until I can no longer stand it anymore, or until I have no more money left.

我想我可能会全职工作几个月,直到我再也无法忍受,或者直到我没什么钱了。

I like that. Yeah.

对,我喜欢那样。
