麻煩大家幫忙
留下優秀的一家人

他們來自波多黎各
父母親都是名校約翰霍普金大學的電腦碩士
(Master Degree in Computer Science - Johns Hopkins University at Laurel, MD)
他們著五個孩子，到全世界學習
Diego 17歲 Paula 13 歲 Alonzo 12 歲
Felizi 8 歲 Matteo 6 歲

八月，他們到了台灣
發覺這是一個非常適合的生活環境
有好的醫療、中文學習環境、電腦產業、和超好吃的水果
九月，Diego , Paula, Alonzo進入惠文高中寄讀
他們來了之後，學校形成一個很棒的英語學習情境
台灣學生都被迫用英文跟他們互動

星期五與台北歌德學院簽訂德國「PASCH夥伴學校」時
他們三個和學校弦樂社一起合奏卡農(見影片)
非常非常有教養的一家人

然而他們11月就必須離開台灣
因為他們來台灣的第五天
得到美國總公司的通知
他們收掉波多黎各的公司
爸爸Tommy失業了
所以這幾天，他在台中接一個英文家教
但經濟仍是問題

如果台中的朋友可以提供11月4日前的短期英文、西班牙文家教工作
或是提供長期電腦工程師的工作
麻煩和Tommy聯絡
以下是他的聯絡方式及完整資歷
(願意幫他們申請工作簽證更好)
他們很願意把台灣當成第二個家

PS
覺得政府說要把英文變成第二語言
最棒的方式是吸引國外的學生進入我們的校園
在人才即國力的年代
讓優秀的國際人才留在台灣
如果在台灣就有很好的英語學習環境
我們就不用一窩蜂跑到國外

▲《你必須不斷奔跑，才能留在原地》

去年12月，崴爺發了一篇有關新興自媒體竄起的文章；上週，媒體又出了一份調查報告：『慘輸YouTube10倍！　高中生剩6%用臉書。』

新聞大致的內容是這樣的：

■惠文高中新聞社針對「網紅議題」調查校內學生，在382份回收問卷中，有7成的學生定期追蹤網紅、66%的人經常使用Youtube，其次是Insagram的24%，而臉書只剩6%。

調查意見顯示，學生不使用臉書的原因是，資訊雜亂、廣告多、個人隱私性不足，幾乎都被各大粉絲團、媒體佔據，雖然臉書不斷調降粉絲團的曝光率，但學生寧願轉去用IG。”

看到這裡，你心裡是不是在大喊：
『老天鵝啊！我好像才剛弄懂粉絲團、廣告怎麼投放，結果又要來一次大洗牌？』

《崴爺來分享兩個事件》

剛入社會工作(已經是90年代的事了….)，崴爺當時的部門經理是一位四十歲的前輩；在我第一次參加部門會議時，自以為很認真地把要開會的資料用電腦打好、列印之後交給經理，沒料到，他突然對著大家說：

「以後開會給我的資料，不准用電腦打！」

會議結束後，我向其他前輩打聽原因，才知道這位部門經理不會用電腦，所以他規定大家都要用「寫的」。

聽來有點不可思議，但在當年像這樣不願改變、抗拒改變的職場前輩，大有人在。

崴爺再舉個例子：

這幾年，崴爺陸續聽聞，我在傳統媒體業的幾位資深主管，現在都成了「年輕人」的下屬。

這些收入曾經是下屬「好幾倍」的大主管，現在的薪水不升反降，還得時時刻刻擔心被公司淘汰；反倒曾經是他們下屬的晚輩，有些人早就靠著臉書團購、經營自媒體、學了新的網路技術，幫自己開了新路，收入早就超越這些比他們年紀大上一輪的職場主管。

【別怪這個世界現實！因為，它早就在提醒你了。】

當你正在沾沾自喜佔了一個「好位置」，別忘了這世界現在已經是用「倍數」在「進化」，你如果停下腳步，沒幾年好光景，你就會被許多厲害的後輩給追上。

連馬雲都說：『我晚上常常睡不好，因為擔心明天起床的時候，自己的公司就被淘汰了！』

所以，你必須不斷奔跑，才能留在原地。

另外，崴爺想告訴弟弟妹妹們：「抱怨」是沒有一點「建設性」的。

【如果你真的厭惡「職場」那套以「年資、階級」論高低的制度，那你更需要緊緊追著這個世界的進化速度，不久之後，你就會發現，自己已經超越那些留在原地的前輩了喔~】

所以，和崴爺一起加油唄。

2018年，崴爺要開始好好經營

【神奈川】鶴岡八幡宮、小町通、江之電、湘南海岸、鎌倉駅...
在NHK電視劇《椿文具店～鎌倉代筆屋物語（ツバキ文具店～鎌倉代書屋物語～）》的片頭一開始，便是由這些令人倍覺熟悉的鎌倉意象揭開故事場景，喜愛且熟悉鎌倉的旅人應該會很容易被觸動。

不同於這季其他幾部日劇各有吸睛之處，以鎌倉為故事場景的《椿文具店》就顯得非常清粥小菜，故事起伏不大，主線也非常單純。

故事內容，講述文具店的老闆娘雨宮カシ子去世後，孫女雨宮鳩子回到鎌倉參與喪禮，由於是唯一近親，文具店的去留便落在鳩子手上決定。

本想住上一段時間，處理完祖母相關事宜就要回東京的鳩子，卻因為突來的代筆信請託而動搖了決定，儘管過去因為曾受到祖母嚴厲訓練她成為出色代筆信撰寫人，而忍不住高中一畢業就反抗祖母而離開鎌倉，受到代筆信請託卻使得她又重拾毛筆。

第一集的故事中，是代筆問候失去深愛寵物如子的夫婦的致哀信，劇情中便提到了此類白信的書寫須知及用墨須知（淺墨，用以表示淚水洗淡的同哀之意）；
第二集中，則以15年前的結婚當年郵票感謝收信者在15年前參加婚禮及15年間各種照顧、使用「灰雲」墨水告知審慎報告心情，來替委託人撰寫向親友報告「圓滿離婚」的消息...

透過目前3集（共8集）故事的鋪陳，看到了「代筆人」這項現代人較為陌生的行業，所蘊藏的心意、眉角，以及蘊藏在代筆這項服務背後的各種斟酌、考慮，算是題材自成特色的一齣日劇。

只是，有別於過去之所以找上代筆人撰寫信件，是由於識字率不高，如今卻是為了想寫出一封文情並茂、文字優美的「好信」而找上代筆人，真是頗有兩樣情之感。

據說台灣的學生，現在已經沒有隨堂作文寫作練習，在起承轉合等結構上也不若過往課堂上的嚴謹要求，甚或得專門去補習作文，以補強作文能力。
突然想到，或許未來某一天，會出現「代筆APP」、「寫信軟體」、「代筆引擎」這樣的服務，嘉惠文字寫作能力已經逐漸弱化、退化的現代人也說不定？

而您又有多久沒提筆寫信了呢？
