现在是离职的黄金时间吗?

Dear Annie:

亲爱的安妮：

A friend sent me your recent column about eight signs it's time to quit, and all eight of them apply to me. I would like nothing better than to leave the company where I work now. My performance reviews have been great, but this is a family-owned business, and I've come to realize over the past couple of years that nobody gets promoted (or gets a raise) unless they have the same last name as the CEO.

一位朋友给我看了你最近的一篇专栏，内容是辞职时机成熟的八个征兆，而我的情况完全符合。我现在最想的，就是离开目前任职的公司。我的绩效评估很出色，但是这是一家家族企业。我这几年才意识到，除了首席执行官自家的人，没有人能获得晋升（或加薪）。

So it's clearly time to move on, and I've rewritten my resume to reflect the terrific track record I've built up as a brand manager since I graduated from college 12 years ago. But is there any point in going out looking? We keep hearing that 15 million Americans are unemployed, the job market is terrible, nobody's hiring, etc., etc. Should I start job hunting anyway, or just try to make the best of things here until the economy improves? — Hitting a Brick Wall.

显然，现在是时候告别过去了。我重写了自己的简历，展示了自己大学毕业12年以来作为品牌经理的优秀业绩。但是，现在跳槽靠谱吗？我们不断听说，多达1,500万美国人正处于失业状态，就业形势很不乐观，没有一家公司在招聘，等等，等等。我是否应该不管不顾开始找工作，还是在经济好转前，尽力在现在这家公司做到最好？——走到尽头的人。
