When a big company lays you off, they often give you a year's salary to 'go pursue a dream.' If you're stupid, you panic and get another job. If you're smart, you take the money and use the time to figure out what you want to do next.

当一家大公司解雇你时,他们通常会给你一年的薪水去“追求梦想”。如果你很愚蠢,你会惊慌失措,然后找另一份工作。如果你很聪明,你就会拿着钱,用时间来想好下一步要做什么。
