Last week, a group of us students, who are ready to leave the campus and face the real world, talked about an issue: What kind of jobs should we take, part-time (on-the-side) extemporaneous jobs or stable fulltime jobs?

A graduate without much experience For me, I will choose a part-time job after graduation. Part-time jobs have several benefits. It allows me to earn more money while learning new skills and building up more experience. The amount of money I earn depends on the type of job and how many hours I have worked in a week.
Moreover, I can work by a flexible schedule. For example, most retail stores stay open at least 12 hours a day, seven days a week. Some stores stay open a full 24 hours. Then I can work with my supervisor to create a work schedule around my busy life. Many supervisors would like to do this for employees, especially if I work late at night or on weekends.
I can learn new skills in different jobs. Many part-time jobs offer on-the-job training. With this training, I can learn valuable new skills. Then I can add these skills to my resume. Adding work experience to my resume can help me find a better or higher-paying job in the future.
A miserable graduate I prefer to do a part-time job rather than a full-time job. The full-time job will restrict my freedom. I am really at a loss when hunting for a full-time job. Because I don't know which job is suitable for me. I don't know whether I can get what I want from it. I think full-time job is a big stake. So taking a part-time job is safer. I can find a better job while doing the part-time one.
In addition, I can do some part-time jobs in my own home, such as dog walkers, babysitters and freelance artists and writers. I can set my own schedule and name my own hourly rate. This will give me a level of freedom I would not find in a traditional full-time job.
A graduate for stable development For me, I think a full-time employment has more benefits than part-time jobs, such as medical coverage or job stability. A major benefit of full-time work is increased pay. Since you're working in a company for more hours, you're likely to earn more money in many instances. Higher overall earnings can be considered a primary benefit of full-time work.
Additionally, full-time employees frequently earn more benefits than part-time workers, including paid vacation days, paid sick days, paid leave for professional development, health care access or contributions to retirement funds.
Another benefit of full-time work is the higher possibilities of promotion or pay raise. The full-time work makes you often exposed in the workplace. Since you're around when other colleagues are working, managers and business owners may come to rely on you regularly for input, consultations or additional responsibilities. This increases visibility, making you a candidate for a promotion or pay raise when the opportunity comes along. Part- timers have a subtler impact in the workplace, since they're not around all the time.
【正确答案】[范文] A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss
Last week, a group of us students, who are ready to leave the campus and face the real world, talked about an issue: What kind of jobs should we take, part-time (
on-the-side) extemporaneous jobs or stable fulltime jobs? Some think that the former best suits them because they can get more experience by doing various kinds of jobs while others maintain that the latter
renders them more benefits. I am on the side of the latter since I am convinced that "A rolling stone gathers no moss."
In the first place, by sticking to one job, we can develop single-minded devotion and focus our attention, energy and resources on what we are doing. Wal-Mart, the number one
retailer in the world, is a good example. It might have a lot of chances to
cash in on other fields, but the management of Walt-Mart keeps devoting single-mindedly to what it is good at-retailing. And Walt-Mart is among the few that have been luckily spared by this global economic crisis. The case tells us how important single-minded devotion is in projecting a correct business strategy.
In the second place, we can acquire the skills needed to achieve professional
proficiency, if we put ourselves into it. Take my aunt Nancy for example. She has changed dozens of part-time jobs in the past few years and succeeded in none of them. However, my uncle Eric, a bank cashier in China Construction Bank, sticks to one job and
spares no efforts to practice his skills and finally achieves success by being promoted to an executive position. He has the greatest satisfaction and self-fulfillment from his present job. He now strongly believes in the greater success in future if he continues to do one job well at a time.
As Andrew Carnegie said, "Put all your eggs into one basket and—watch that basket." This is his family
creed. And his words are indeed
thought-provoking and educational in that they really can help the growth of a good business, a person and of course a nation. Indeed, a rolling stone never gathers moss.
