The seven-day Spring Festival holiday in the Year of the Snake quickly passed by in the blink of an eye.
From a human perspective, time really seems elastic. Holidays always flash by, while days spent tightening screws in the factory tend to feel like a lifetime.
It's not about relativity, purely a subjective human perception.
Fortunately, there are always those bigwigs who find going to work more comfortable than resting; they balance out this feeling.
However, such bigwigs are rare. A few truly turn their interests into a livelihood, while most hold managerial positions. Although the mentally strained in this world may lose hair faster, in most cases, their spiritual world is richer than those who labor physically.
Take Zhang Mingrui, for example.
Transferred from the Capital to Xilin, from the research institute to the university as a president, it's hard to say if it's a promotion.
Yet, he found a sense of youthful ambition and boldness again.
