The bank manager told me that my future was excellent (杰出的).”“Then why do you want to leave? “I asked.” It's the money, “Henry said,” But you are getting a good salary (工資) ,“I answered.” I don't mean that, “Henry said.” What do I do in the bank? Well, at the moment all I do is to count money. I find it very depressing (壓抑) .”
