In the year of graduation, I took pains to hand in my resume with a professional diploma with 99% employment rate. Because of its strong professionalism, employment is self-evident. However, after all, it is heaven that rewards hard work, and a little-known shipping company decided to try me out for a year. In the field of navigation, such a probation period is completely normal. Teachers at school will tell us that it is not a dream to work for ten years and earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, but it is still calculated in dollars.

In this way, everything is going on step by step. After studying this major for several years, I finally realized the word navigation for the first time. This time, the ship set out from China, with uncertain course, and found a dock along the international route to temporarily load and unload goods. It doesn't seem to meet the requirements, but after looking at the salary limit, it passed. The captain is a foreigner, including the chef and other staff. There are many people. This is just a rough figure, because I am just a small staff member, and I can only make a rough guess about the things at the top. There is no doubt that this is a cargo ship, that's what it says.

Soon, the ship finally set sail and gradually slipped to the middle of the sea. Our journey is a sea of stars, only we sailors can say so. People who used to look normal are not normal now. Newcomers who say navigation technology will inevitably thank those who have nothing to do with college books for their hard work and work. But for me, physical exertion is not difficult. After all, I am also a person who once wanted to enter a military school. It doesn't seem to matter.

I wonder if the restaurant on board is lively or noisy. There are people from all countries, Chinese and I are just four people. Although they are all English scum, they basically communicate with each other. I looked out at the coming ship, thinking about going to pirates or something, but I saw that the flag of the coming ship was not a bone, but a conspicuous red five-star red flag. I'm lost. Where are my pirates? I'm in my twenties, and I'm still so naive. Sure enough, our ship was ordered to return to the dock for inspection. The reason is probably all kinds of unqualified. This is a great requirement for ships sailing internationally. From political issues to fire extinguishers, they will be fined and detained. What a coincidence, I actually met it.

After waiting for about two days, the company told me that the ship had been rectified, which means I was laid off. Although the contract was scribbled, people still had various reasons to comfort me. Force majeure, internal problems of the company and so on. The final verdict of the bureau is that I am an unemployed person again with honor. I comfort myself that the shipping market is depressed now, so don't worry. I'm only in my twenties, don't worry.

After a series of tossing, I decided to leave the navigation technology related industries. It feels like the protagonist in a TV series is pursuing his dreams, and the crowd is angry and combative. Just like that sentence, youth is not over, and the road is ahead. However, reality cannot be distorted. During that time, too many interviews were embarrassed on the question "What's your major?". After all, the interviewer may not know this thing. Of course, I'm not belittling the major of navigation technology. What I said is just my personal feelings. I don't like this major. Doesn't mean that navigation is not a good major. It is still excellent. Salute the sailors.

After I decided to jump ship, I wanted to find a job in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other places, but I found it difficult to gain a foothold in my professional advantages here. If you are majoring in computer, advertising, graphic design, etc. It's easy to find a job here. Too bad it wasn't me. Not me. I stumbled in that small but shabby rental house for more than three months. I have done some unrestricted professional work, messy work, and barely make ends meet. At that time, looking at the only college diploma, looking at the beautiful cars all over the street, and looking at the 100-foot tall building overhead, a sense of sadness was overwhelming.

In order to avoid this decadent mood, I brainwashed my dream. I left Guangzhou and went to the heart of my motherland, Beijing. Just like the hero and heroine in the idol drama want to leave the sad city. Sure enough, ginger is still spicy in Beijing, and hutong is still deep in Beijing. Shortly after I arrived in Beijing, I found a cultural media company. At that time, HR asked me to talk about my interesting experience, and I also specifically talked about my voyage. I called it looking for pirates, but I didn't find them and was returned and fired. I told my bitter history, and the interviewer said I was humorous. In this way, I became a small employee with a monthly salary of less than 10 thousand and more than 800.

Although some industries and some jobs are not very strict with the professional requirements of university studies, I understand that all industries have the same requirements for academic ability. Looking at the intern ID card I finally got, I began to regret my bohemian university. I regret that I didn't study hard. I regret that I wasted four wonderful years in college because I complained about others. As the saying goes, people who come out to mix will pay back sooner or later, which is probably the reason.

I can't breathe with piles of documents and complicated data. They say this is the only way for newcomers to learn. Although the documents handed to me are not important, they should be done mechanically. Adhere to the principle of doing more and learning more, and working overtime and staying up late has become my daily routine. Although the salary is not much, you must attend more classes. What's more, the basement rental house next to the company is not better than the company office. Being young means working hard, otherwise, how do you know you can take more classes?

During that time, when I was free at night, I would hide under the covers and read novels. This is the only pastime, but it is actually a hobby that started in college. There was a time when watching Jiang Feng's "A Piece of White Flowing" made me miss tea and rice, and I liked the cover sentence "I have no good life at the age of 22, but I won't have a bad life". I was just twenty-two years old that year, and I barely got by.

After working in Beijing for three years, I can't even afford a cemetery with that savings. After working in Beijing for three years, I feel that my dream is not only far away, but also expensive. Twenty-five years old, still thinking in the rental house, but what I want is not a dream, but a reality. I admit that I am weak and my dreams are too extravagant. What if my dream comes true? I can't do this one. So that year, I resolutely returned to my hometown and started a logistics company with a friend's loan, which is the kind of specialized logistics department from the city to the county. Another bitter tear, which I opened with my own money. I have no internship, no one to take me and no overtime.

Although I am too lazy to talk about the history of entrepreneurship on financial TV, I always like to use a classic bridge to say that the hero's career is on the verge of collapse, and then when an event happens, the opportunity becomes better. But my own history of logistics entrepreneurship is really such a routine. Although I have done some research before, I will still encounter the embarrassing situation that there is no goods to ship. During that time, we contacted various manufacturers, talked with shippers and talked with other logistics. It is no exaggeration to say that I really wanted to give up at one time, but I still insist on doing it now. In this logistics industry, which makes money from cabbage prices and sells white powder, we are moving forward slowly. Although this is also an industry far from my dream, at least I used the "goods science" learned in the college navigation course.

Sometimes I think, what is a dream and what is my right choice? Would my life be different if I went to the software major I wanted instead of navigation technology in the year of college entrance examination? From software engineering to navigation technology, to cultural media, to logistics industry, what am I pursuing? Is our journey an imaginary sea of stars or a narrow waterway?

In a few years, I will be 30 years old. At that time, I probably had no ability to tell whether this was a dream or not. At the age of 30, this option may not be available in reality, survival and family.

In the year of college entrance examination, I wrote in my classmate's book with great interest-senior software engineer, and in my volunteer application book-software engineering. As a result, I was naturally not admitted, and I didn't remember what kind of psychological activity it was at that time, so I accidentally missed an unheard-of navigation major. From the day I received the notice, I really knew where the university I was going to. There is such a place in China. I can't wait to search the navigation technology on the Internet before I know what navigation technology is, and I have a little understanding of my major.

When I was in college, my teacher told us that the employment rate of navigation technology was as high as 99%. Later, I learned that most senior brothers go home and inherit the family business, which is also considered employment, and opening a Taobao shop is also considered employment. The strangest thing is that there are no girls in this major. Other majors call us monk classes, and we can only smile. Anyway, it's safe to come here and start college life in a daze.

In the meantime, I don't want to know what is navigation, what is a big ship, what is a sea area, what is ship automation and so on. I'm not interested in this thing at all. You know, software engineers and navigation technicians are out of touch. I often tease myself that my major and my dream have nothing to do with stroke.

However, it is useless to complain. Let's accept all these arrangements. Although I'm not interested in sailing, I'm crazy about pirates. All kinds of domineering side leakage, all kinds of bravery and boldness are the standard of pirates. But these are just pirates in my imagination, such as broken flags, tattoos and one-eyed, all from movies. Probably pirates of the Caribbean.

There should be some dreams in life, but you don't have to break your head to realize them. Plans can never keep up with changes. Of course, one in a million can persist, but improvisation is not a life skill.

When I was young, I clamored for smoking, drinking, writing poems, watching the distance, carving my dreams in my notebook, and then realizing them tomorrow when I was sober. But slowly, I found that the loudest words were heard by the least people, and the people who cried the most heartbreaking were not together in the end.

The preciousness of youth lies in that it can do many things, and more importantly, it will never return. The scarcity of dreams is the same, because it can never be easily realized. But time is fair, no matter whether our past is regrettable or carefree, it can finally become an exclusive memory.

I'm only in my twenties and I'm still young. It's too negative to give up so early, but now my dream has changed. As Jay Chou sang: If you can't catch your dream, change it. The years of chasing dreams in software engineering have been engraved. Next time, the next dream is to do everything better.

Although the navigation technology major says that there are fixed courses and fixed exams in universities, there is never a fixed formula to use in actual navigation. The sea is so big, all kinds of sea conditions and random events can't be scripted. Only by improvising can we sail further. Like Captain Jack, wildness is both good and evil, which makes him a young pirate active in the Caribbean.

End.
