What is your job? Are you a teacher or a businessman? Or maybe you are a lawyer/writer or a doctor/singer. If you have more than one job, you have a slash career.
The term "slash career" comes from the punctuation mark (标点符号) "/". People with slash careers often have a main job. It usually meets their needs of life. The main job comes before the slash. And the job after the slash is often about a person's hobby. It can help make people's lives colourful.
Why do people want more than one job? On the one hand, a second career can be enjoyable if it is about hobbies. In fact, a second career helps with work-life balance. It gives people a chance to learn more skills and show their creativity. On the other hand, it helps people make more money to become rich.
However, a slash career can also be bad for work-life balance. Having more than one job may take up much time. People with slash careers need to think carefully about how to spend their time. They need to know when to stop working.
Some companies would like to use people with slash careers. They think that they are creative and willing to work hard. Besides, young people with slash careers seem to have more skills to deal with the challenges at work and do a better job.
