She is a cry...
Chapter 9 The First Job (Thanks to the Dust-like Alliance Leader)
After connecting her personal data to her personal terminal and activating it, Heshia began to look for a job.
The first step was to create a simple resume, and then to connect to the local network of Arpeggio City.
The city's job agency websites were full of various recruitment information, but most of them required full-time jobs for adults.

...
Heshia sat on a bench in the park, flipping through the recruitment information on the projection, and then selected the filter items to filter out full-time jobs for adults, leaving some odd jobs and simple jobs.
[Restaurant kitchen, work location: No. 41, Gear Street, 43rd floor, Arpeggio City, 2,400 federal coins/month...] [Arc String Industrial Group Employee Restaurant]

...
After browsing for an hour, Heshia put down her phone and took a short break.
After reading the various job requirements, her original self-confidence was immediately hit.
The grades in school are not very useful in society. She sighed silently in her heart. Although she knew the result a long time ago, she really felt the difficulty of ordinary people when she was looking for a job.
However, you can't give up, Heshia.
The girl cheered herself up and continued to screen.
Finally, she edited her resume and applied to three of them, namely "cafe waiter", "tutor" and "safety inspector".
It's not easy to make money. No wonder some students in the class want to take shortcuts. Heshia shook her head, stood up, and looked up at the magnificent Daxia, which is about 100 meters high in front of her. There are countless professionals in the workplace.
Although these lights and screens can't speak, the colorful pictures, the symbols and handwritings that rotate one by one, all show their own value, the value of brands and advertisements. If the buildings behind these neon lights and signs can be visualized, the figures representing the economy will be amazing, running at such a high speed and intoxicating.
Countless people have invested in this number, singing and shouting for it, crying and sighing for it, and they only hate that the person who catches the tip of the wave is not themselves.
"Under the wheel of the times, there is no room for escape."
————
[Hello, Miss Heshia, the tutor position you applied for has been cancelled. The client has reached a contract with a suitable candidate. If you want to know the gap with competitors and analyze the reasons, we can provide you with VIP membership services...]
Turn it off, forget about the VIP membership fee, Heshia decisively refused.
As for academic performance, she was confident that she was no worse than her peers, but if the other party was a teacher or an outstanding high school student, it would be difficult to compete.
Soon, another message came.
[Your application for the position of safety inspector has been rejected. The reason given by the other party is that you are too young and not suitable for the position...]
A 16-year-old girl has no deterrent power. The other party may want to recruit a burly man.
After finishing this message, Heshia felt that it might be difficult to get a result today. However, just when she was thinking about whether there was any other way out, a message came.
[Ms. Heshia, the other party is interested in the position of "cafe waiter" you applied for. A simple interview is required via video call. Do you agree/refuse?]
There is no choice but to try. Heshia blinked and clicked to confirm.
The image was projected on the personal terminal. It looked like a woman in her 30s, with a slightly fat body, wearing a professional suit and glasses.
"Hello, is this Miss Heshia?"
"Hello, it's me." Heshia nodded seriously.
"Well... Looking at your appearance, it still meets our requirements. Can you tell me your height?"
"The height is 160cm." Heshia recalled the physical examination before graduation.
"According to your information, you have just graduated from junior high school. Are you going to work directly in the future, or go to high school for further studies?"
"I plan to go to high school in the future, but I want to work for a while before school starts to earn a living." Heshia answered honestly.
"Is that so..." The other party seemed a little hesitant.
"We are indeed recruiting people here, but we need long-term employees. If you can't work for a long time and only work for a short period of time, the salary will be slightly lower."
"How much is it?"
"50 federal coins/day during the probation period, a total of one week, and 2,600 federal coins/month after becoming a regular employee, and two working meals are included."
Although 2,600 is not high, it includes meals, and the girl is very grateful.
"It's acceptable."
"Okay, are you free this afternoon? Come to the 37th floor of the Dingxing Tower." The Dingxing Tower is a landmark building in Arpeggio City and the tallest urban building underground. You can enjoy the view from the top, and many young couples will date here.
"Okay."
After turning off the video call, Heshia's originally nervous heart settled a little. No matter what, there is always a first job.
Let's go and take a look first.
After packing up her things, Heshia stood up, walked out of the park, and looked up. A tall tower with lights gathered stood in the center of the city, attracting the attention of passers-by.
However, I suddenly felt a little hungry.
