As people set to dinner．I breathed a sigh of relief：the conference was going well．Running it was a part of my job as a university program manager，working on a project to boost biotech collaborations between academia and industry．When I started in the role a few years earlier，I thought that maybe， after years of career exploration，I had finally found the right job for me．But at the conference，I found myself wondering whether that was really what I wanted from my career．I\’m a scientist．not an even planner-but I had been too busy organizing the conference to appreciate the research being discussed．Was it time for yet another change?
I started off as a lab scientist，but then discovered that the highly focused nature of lab work wasn’t for me．My next job was at a pharmaceutical company-conduction literature searched．I enjoyed the work，which allowed me to stay close to research and interact with a variety of people．But I was only offered a short-term contract，so after a year I had to move on．I then became a scientific journal editor．I loved the breadth of science that I was exposed to，but the job required a lengthy commute．So，I made another dramatic change and got my current job．
It had become a pattern：I spent a few years in each role only to find that it wasn’t quite the right fit．I also realized that maybe I was searching for something that didn’t exist． I began to think about the creative ways to add the scientific stimulation．I sought to my work life．With my previous knowledge and my experience as an editor．I realized I had the skill set to do that through freelance and science writing，such as news articles for journals and blogs．
With my former colleagues’positive responses，I finally decided I could do my university job on a less than full-time schedule．Fortunately，my manager agreed．
For the last year．I have been a university program manager freelance writer，and I have never been happier．Weaving the two roles together has been a bit tricky at times．But I finally feel I have a career that is tailored to my needs．I have realized that a career doesn’t need to be“off the shelf”．Jobs can be mixed and matched to get to one that fits．

解析：观点态度题。根据文章第一段第四、第五和第六句“But at the conference，I found myself wondering whether‘that was really what I wanted from my career．I’m a scientist not an even planner-but I had been too busy organizing the conference to appreciate the research being discussed．Was it time·for yet another change?”可知，作者在这次会议上开始对自己职业生涯产生困惑，自己想知道这是否真的是“我”想要的职业生涯。“我”是一名科学家而不是一名规划师——但我一直忙于组织会议，并且作者在最后发问：是时候该做出改变了吗?据此可知，作者认为组织会议的工作不如科研有意义，故选c。
