生活英语|Rebound job 跳板工作

Rebound^{1 job is a job you take knowing that it isn't long term, often due to an emergency situation where you know youre losing your current job. It provides a paycheck while you take your time looking for a better job.}

跳板工作指你在同意时就了解不会长期从事的工作，这样的情况出现多数是由于你了解你或许会扔掉现在的工作，是形势危急才做出的决定。在你探寻更佳工作选择期间，跳板工作可以叫你有份收入。

For example:

Starbucks was totally a rebound job, I was minutes from getting fired and needed something fast!

星巴克那份工作就是个跳板工作，当时我快被炒了，急切需要一份工作。
