    助編

    一月從臺回國後,應徵了報社的工作,職位是助編。本來從沒打算要呆超過三個月,打算邊工作邊另謀高就,後來覺得有趣就想多做二個月,在後來就是現在的樣子,我想短期內還是在報社做個職業助編吧。人生充滿許多意想不到的事情,以前在怎麼胡思亂想也不會想到進報社工作,如果職業可以選擇的話,當個郵差也不錯,理由是想親自把信件的信意傳達到收信人的手上。要不,在充滿書香氣息的書店或圖書館謀職也很好。這番話聽起來真沒有甚麼大志,我的人生大概就是這樣,過去現在或未來都是那麼平凡,曾經幻想自己要當個知名人物,後來發現自己好高騖遠,雖然不甘心,但也漸漸學習接受作小人物的人生。

    上星期看完荻原浩的《蛋白質》,書中主角寵物偵探說了怎麼一句,「就算不夠硬派,就算不夠格活著,也得生存下去……」,我覺得當個小人物無妨,只要自己被需要,做甚麼也無所謂。

    說回來,報社編輯部宛如軍隊裡的快速部隊,主管掌握今天新聞的走向,並分配任務給各助編,我們就像部隊裡面的小兵,任務按每天主管分配為主,事先並不知道今天要處理甚麼新聞,此外還得隨時面對各種突發狀況,比如抽搞、卡版、等新聞、催照片等。要是問我在報社當編輯有甚麼必要條件,那就是要有一顆很強的心臟,尤其晚報過版有時間限制,腎上腺素在此時段會分泌很多,特別high。編輯的工作其實很單純,就是打題、校稿、分色照片、組版,都是有點難又不難的工作。因為這份工作,認識許多單字,最大的收穫在於了解馬來西亞的時事,上次處理世遺的系列專題也使自己對檳城這塊土地認識更多。

    真是有挑戰性的工作,從某個角度來想自己打出來的題有十幾萬人看,無論貧富貴賤,還真是很爽的一件事,不是嗎?
