月末月初の締め処理が入ると、英語の勉強するのが少し苦しいですね。
エネルギーがある休日や月曜日は割と英語勉強をしていて、週末はエネルギーが枯渇しちゃっている感じです。
定時で上がれると勉強スケジュールも組みやすいかもしれません。
あと、今後の自分のキャリアについて、色々と考えてみました。
意外とまとめるとシンプルで、サラリーマンとして強化したいスキルは大別して4つ。
・経営学 ⇒ 理論を学ぶ（まずは本から。学校通う必要があれば、それも視野に入れて情報収集する）
・外国語（英語＆中国語） ⇒ 理論（NativeCamp、資格等）をある程度学んだら、実践機会を作る
・プロマネ ⇒ 現在の会社で経験あるのみ
・エンジニア（Python） ⇒ コーディングあるのみ（毎日、コーディング中）
学習プロセスと、それをどう時間配分すればいいかだけの話なので、きちんと仕組み化した方が、効果的に勉強できるような気がしました。
コツコツがんばります。

Violin-Makers Suffering During the Pandemic
Cremona, a city in Italy with 73,000 inhabitants, is situated on the southern border of the northern Italian region of Lombardy. Cremona was the site of the first European outbreak of the coronavirus in February 2020 and has had more than 1,000 deaths and 6,600 confirmed cases of infection. Now, the virus is putting a strain on its economy. In particular, it is threatening the violin-making craftsmanship that has made its workshops famous throughout the world.
Bowed string instruments have been handmade since the 16th Century in Cremona, which is also the hometown of Antonio Stradivari, perhaps the greatest violin maker in history. But now, his legacy is struggling to survive.
Cremonese violin-making is also on UNESCO's cultural heritage list, and the city’s craftsmen are internationally renowned for the unique process they use to create violins, violas, cellos, and double basses, in which they assemble more than 70 pieces of wood by hand.
Patrick Orippi is a 50-year-old violin-maker with a background as a cabinetmaker and carver, and he works alone in his small workshop. “Normally, I make six or seven instruments a year. I shipped the last violin in January, so yes, my business has been suffering since the lockdown,” says Orippi.
Since the lockdown forced non-essential shops to close, many dealers have frozen or even canceled their orders. “The coronavirus forced me to put on hold the orders I had,” says Orippi. And if an order is not completed, the violin-maker is not paid.
At the same time, the Cremonese industry has to deal with growing competition from outside the city walls. Many foreign violin-makers who graduate in Cremona decide to return to their home countries, taking their expertise with them. Consequently, the art of violin-making is sprouting beyond historical centers of excellence, such as Cremona.
Stefano Trabucchi, who opened his workshop in 1992, says, “It was never an easy market to enter, but it used to work. Now, the coronavirus-induced crisis is set to change this business as we knew it.”
