Hi Patrick, how are you recently?

I’m extremely busy with my work. It’s crazy!

You’re so poor. How’s it?

I’ve to work overtime every day and my boss keeps pushing me to meet the target. I’m so exhausted.

Please take care. By the way, I’ve got a surprise for you.

Really? Let me guess. Will you get married?

Not at the moment. I’ve just resigned from my work.

Oh, congratulation! It must be a good change. Can you disclose your new employer to me?

I’ll not have any boss.

How come? I cannot get your meaning.

I’m the boss now. I’ll not work from nine to five in the future.

Are you starting your own business?

Not exactly. I’ll be a slasher.

Wow, it’s incredible. Being a slasher is a growing trend of career.

I’ve already planned the change for over two years.

I’ve also thought of slash career before. I think my existing job cannot provide me any fulfillment.

Work-life balance is more important than anything from my perspective.

I’ve so many things to worry about. Do you think it’s a bit risky to be a slasher?

If there is not enough preparation work, it may be risky.

It’s my hesitation before. My worries include unstable income and lack of insurance protection. I’ve been struggling with money.

Your worries are valid. It’s the reason why preparation is required. It also depends on your passion.

I do not think that I’ve multiple talents. Even if I’ve strong passion, I cannot demonstrate my capability of handling multitasking jobs.

As work from home is very common in the past few years, there are so much opportunity that you can learn new things from the virtual world.

It’s my bad. I only spent most of my time in watching pop music online for relaxing myself.

We should have the can-do spirit.

You’re right. How can I break the boundaries of myself?

We graduated five years ago. It’s now our golden year to develop and thrive. My long-term achievement is to get different work-related titles attaching to me.

It’s also a dream for me if I’m not required to handle my boss’s request daily.

I started to teach yoga two years ago. I also wrote blog and shared my knowledge of healthy diet and living one year ago.

I think it’s not easy to turn interests into a profession.

The incomes generated from my part-time jobs now can support me to pay for my living. Meanwhile, I’ve also diversified to increase the incomes sources.

How can you do this?

There are different ways to earn money online now. I like photography. I can sell some of my photos to the marketplace as the stock photos. In addition to being a yoga teacher and blogger, photo shooting can be another incomes stream.

Enjoying variety is really one of the benefits of a slasher.

Have you tried to use AI tool?

Not yet. What’s it used for?

With the popularity of artificial intelligence tool, we should learn to write effective prompts. We can then generate our required content or image in an efficient way.

I can start my business by selling the generated images to the marketplace. It does not require any technical skills e.g. programming code at all. In the past, you may also need to attend design course for learning basic skills of drawing.

Nowadays, you can type in suitable prompts to ask AI robot to do it for you.

Wow, I haven’t thought of it before.

It’s all about your creativity and willingness to learn. If you do not start to learn such AI prompts, you cannot compete with others in the near future.

It’s something new to me. I always get confused that it’s too technical to me.

Other than photo shooting, I can also provide opinion related to customer experience by joining different questionnaires online. If I can be qualified, I can get paid after completing questionnaires offered by the companies. It can help companies offering better features of products or services to customers.

Is it feasible for me to do so?

Of course. Everyone can do it.

Being a slasher, please bear in mind that you’ve to be self-disciplined. It’s the key success factor. You should also be flexible and open.

How did you prepare yourself before?

Before considering the resignation, I’ve kept saving as much money as possible in the past two years. I did not spend unnecessarily. I’ve reserved my contingency fund in case of any uncertainties.

Saving for a raining day is crucial. It’s well planned.

Exactly. I’ll keep discovering new ways of incomes streams via different and new business models online.

I think I should spend my time wisely to learn those new business models online.

Time management is also very important. As a slasher, I’ve to take balance between multiple tasks.

Right. It’s another challenge to me.

If you’ve a strong desire, you’ll make your best efforts to strive for it.

I hope I can get rid of the boring full-time job in the future whereas I can still earn a living without any trouble.

You can do it. AI will replace some of the jobs in the future. Even you’ll not be a slasher, you should also learn the new skills and upgrade yourself by avoiding elimination from the society.

Thanks so much for your sharing today.

I enjoy the freedom in planning my schedule and work very much.

I am fully aware of the autonomy you’ve experienced now.

I can provide you some of the websites as reference. It should be able to give you some insights.

Great. I hope I can also be the member of slash economy in the future.

It’s a good start to keep your permanent job and explore the possibility in parallel. I did the same before.

I may also control my spending for better budget planning.

You’ll not get any loss because such skills can be applied in your daily work as well. It’ll become your asset.

I got your point. After learning how to write an AI prompt message, my productivity can be raised when performing research or writing report. I can be more efficient than my colleagues.

You’re so smart. Let’s catchup later.

I benefited a lot from our conversation. Thank you so much and see you later.

WITH CHINESE SCRIPT

嗨帕特里克，您最近好嗎？

我的工作非常忙，這很瘋狂！

您太可憐了，怎麼樣？

我每天都要加班，我的老闆一直督促我完成目標，我太累了。

請保重，順便說一句，我給您準備了一個驚喜。

真的嗎？讓我猜猜，您會結婚嗎？

不是現在，我剛辭掉工作。

恭喜！這一定是一個很好的改變，您能告訴我您的新僱主嗎？

我不會有任何老闆。

怎麼來的？我不明白您的意思。

我現在就是老闆，我以後不會朝九晚五工作。

您要自己創業嗎？

不完全是，我會成為一名斜槓族。

哇，太不可思議了，成為斜槓族是一種日益增長的職業趨勢。

兩年前，我已開始計劃改變。

我之前也想過斜槓族事業，我認為現有的工作不能給我任何滿足感。

在我看來，工作與生活的平衡比任何事情都重要。

我有很多事情要擔心，您覺得做斜槓族是否有點冒險嗎？

如果沒有足夠的準備工作，可能會有風險。

這是我之前的猶豫，我的擔憂包括收入不穩定和缺乏保險保障，我一直在為錢而苦苦掙扎。

您的擔心是有道理的，這就是為什麼需要準備的原因，這也取決於您對這工作的熱愛。

我不認為我有多重才能，即使我有強烈的熱情，我也無法展示我處理多任務工作的能力。

由於過去幾年在家工作非常普遍，因此您有很多機會可以從虛擬世界中學習新事物。

是我的錯，我大部分時間只是花在網上看流行音樂來放鬆自己。

我們應該有事在人為的精神。

您說得對，怎樣才能打破自我的界限？

我們五年前畢業了，現在是我們發展的黃金年，我的長遠成就是獲得不同的與工作相關的頭銜。

如果我不需要每天處理老闆的要求，這對我來說也是一個夢想。

兩年前我開始教瑜伽，一年前我也寫網誌，分享了我的健康飲食和生活知識。

我覺得把興趣變成職業並不容易。

現在打工的收入可以支撐我的生活，同時，我也多元化增加了收入來源。

您怎麼能這樣做？

現在有不同的在線賺錢方式，我喜歡攝影，我可以將我的一些照片作為圖庫照片出售給市場。除了成為一名瑜伽老師和博主，拍攝也可以成為另一項收入來源。

享受多樣性確實是斜槓族的好處之一。

您是否嘗試過使用人工智能的 工具？

還沒有，它是做什麼用的？

隨著人工智能工具的普及，我們應該學會編寫有效的提令，然後我們可以高效地生成我們需要的內容或圖像。

我可以通過將生成的圖像賣到市場來開始我的生意，它不需要任何技術技能，例如編程代碼。過去，您可能還需要參加設計課程來學習繪畫的基本技能。

如今，您可以輸入合適的提令，讓 人工智能機器人為您做這件事。

哇，我以前沒想過。

這完全取決於您的創造力和學習意願，如果你您開始學習這樣的 人工智能提令，您在不久的將來就無法與其他人競爭。

這對我來說是新事物，我總是感到困惑，因為它對我來說太技術化了。

除了拍攝照片，我還可以通過在線參與不同的問卷調查來提供與客戶體驗相關的意見，如果我能合資格，我可以在完成各公司提供的問卷調查後獲得報酬，這些問卷可以幫助公司向客戶提供更好的產品或服務功能。

我是否能做到嗎？

當然可以，每個人都可以做到。

作為一名斜槓族，請記住您必須自律，這是關鍵的成功因素，您也應該靈活和開放。

您之前是怎麼準備的？

在考慮辭職之前，這兩年我一直在盡可能多地儲錢，我沒有不必要地花錢，我已經預留了應急資金以備不時之需。

未雨綢繆至關重要，您的計劃周密。

確切的，我將通過不同的和新的在線商業模式不斷發現新的收入來源方式。

我認為我應該明智地花時間在網上學習那些新的商業模式。

時間管理也很重要，作為一名斜槓族，我必須在多個工作之間取得平衡。

正確的，這對我來說是另一個挑戰。

如果您有強烈的願望，您會盡最大的努力去爭取。

我希望將來無須做乏味的全職工作，同時還能安心謀生。

您是能做到的，人工智能將在未來取代一些工作，即使您不會成為一個斜槓族，您也應該學習新技能並提升自己，避免被社會淘汰。

非常感謝今天的分享。

我非常享受規劃日程和工作的自由。

我完全了解您現在所享受的自主權。

我可以為您提供一些網站作為參考，應該能夠給您一些概念。

太好的，希望以後自己也能成為斜槓族經濟的一員。

作為好的開始，您要繼續現時的全職工作，並同時探索可能性，我以前也這樣做過。

我也可以控制我的支出以更好地規劃預算。

您不會有任何損失，因為這些技能也可以應用到您的日常工作中，它會成為您的資產。

我明白您的意思了，學會寫人工智能提令信息後，我做研究或寫報告時可以提高工作效率，我可以比我的同事更有效率。

您太聰明了，我們稍後再見面。

我從我們的談話中受益匪淺，非常感謝，稍後再見。
