You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
前職で一緒だった先輩とご飯を食べてきた。
I had dinner with a former colleague from my previous company.
今の会社での仕事に満足していないこと、風力業界に戻りたいことを相談してきた。すると、彼の友人にコンタクトしてみる、と提案してくれた。
I shared my feelings with him, expressing that I’m not satisfied with my current job and that I want to return to the wind energy industry. He suggested he could reach out to his former colleagues in the industry to help me.
正直、前の会社は、嫌で飛び出してしまったので、今の気持ちを相談できずにいた。でも、そんなことを考えていたのは、わたしだけで、先輩は前と全く変わらずに相手をしてくれた。
Honestly, I hesitated to open up about my dissatisfaction with my current job because I left my previous company due to its culture and the country manager. However, I realized that my former colleague spoke to me as openly as he did when we worked together, without any hesitation.
今後の人との付き合い方を改めるタイミングなのかなと思った。
I think this is a good opportunity for me to reconsider my approach to interacting with people.
突っ張るだけが男ではない。ときには折れることも大事。狭い業界で、将来、いつどこでまた再会するかわからないので、人との付き合いを大切にしていきたい。
Maybe I should try to get along with people I struggled to connect with before. The wind energy sector is a small world, and I never know when I might cross paths with someone I’ve met in the past. From now on, I’ll place more value on the relationships I have with others.
To be continued.
