在过去的两年中,因为经济危机的影响,很多人都不幸失去了工作。不过失业以后,并不是所有人都愁眉苦脸或立马转身找一个临时的工作过度。有这么一些人,他们很享受失业后的生活,别人上班的时候,他们可以随意做自己想做的事情。他们说,他们这不是unemployed,而是funemployed。
Funemployed refers to people who are unemployed and using the free time to have fun and explore new areas in their lives while they wait for their next job opportunity.
失业快乐族(funemployed)指在等待下个工作机会来临期间利用空余时间享受生活,并挖掘生活中的新鲜领域的失业一族。
The term "funemployment" is defined as "the condition of a person who takes advantage of being out of a job to have the time of their life".
Funemployment则是指人们利用失业时的自由时间充分享受生活的这种状态。
For example:
I just love being funemployed now. I can have all day and night to enjoy my life and have fun.
我现在很喜欢做个“失业快乐族”。我有整天整晚的时间去享受生活、找乐子。
