Dear Economist: Should I move from Florence to the UK just for a job?
我應不應該去英國工作?


我得到一份在英國的工作。工作本身、薪水和發展可能都超出了我的預期。但貨幣兌換、制式習慣、更換插頭、左側駕駛、食物及其天氣,這一切都讓我感到有些不舒服。我這樣擔心對不對呢?

I've been offered a job in the UK. The job, the salary and the possibilities are beyond my expectations. However, trying to think in pounds instead of euros (and changing them every time I visit my family) and in miles rather than kilometres, having to change the plugs and learn to drive on the other side, and – why don't I say it? – facing the weather and food, all make me feel a bit uncomfortable, especially since it would be for at least five years. Am I right to worry?
Anna, Florence

我得到一份在英國的工作。工作本身、薪水和發展可能都超出了我的預期。然而,試著以英鎊而不是以歐元思考(而且每次回家探親時都要進行兌換);以英里而不是以公里思考;必須更換插頭並學習在另一側駕駛;以及——爲什麼我不直說呢——面對那邊的天氣和食物,這一切都讓我感到有些不舒服,特別是至少要在那裏生活5年。我這樣擔心對不對呢?
