“Yeah, not my job, Howard. My career.”
對,不是我的工作,霍華德,是我的事業。
用一句糾正把失業升級成事業被毀,簡短卻全是委屈和體面。
not my X, my Y
強調事情的分量時說;對安慰你的人別用,會顯得不領情。
It's not a job to me, it's a career. / This wasn't just work, this was my life.
口語
job 和 career 對照重讀,career 拉長收尾。
It's not a side gig for her, it's a career. 這對她不是兼職,是事業。
