Food Factory——
The largest public factory in Qingxi Town, in addition to producing yuba (soy products), is also considering building a brewery.
The factory manager took the manpower issue into consideration and came up with the idea of hiring temporary workers.
Song Jianming has been working diligently at his job for nearly twenty years. After knowing the purpose of his visit, Director Liu looked at the young man behind him.
He is tall and good-looking, and his only education is a junior high school diploma.
I asked him a few more questions in person, and to be honest, my EQ was pretty good and he was quite satisfied with me.
However, he gestured for them to sit down and explained:
"Old Song, you're also an old employee of the factory. You know the situation here. There's no work on the tofu skin production line. Everyone is working very hard..."
Nowadays, who wouldn’t cherish a formal job?
So no one retires, and no one resigns.
When moving, either the family lets their children take over the job, or the family works until retirement age.
Therefore, it is difficult to find a formal job.
Song Jianming was very clear about this, so there was no surprise.
Director Liu saw that the two people opposite him were very calm, especially the young man, who was very patient. He felt relieved and continued:
"The factory's financial situation is deteriorating, and selling yuba (bean curd sheets) is a major problem. I'm considering changing the factory's operations, but I'm worried the employees won't accept it. So I'm planning to build a new brewery, and I'm in need of temporary workers."
"Of course, if the brewery is open and generates stable profits, these temporary workers will have the opportunity to become regular employees."
"Temporary workers are hired for emergencies, and their wages are only half of those of regular employees. Only when the brewery's performance improves can they be promoted and become regular employees based on their work performance."
"I wonder if you'd be willing to let your nephew work as a temporary worker?"
The words are very clear, the pie is also drawn, how to choose is up to them.
Song Jianshe looked at his nephew, then nodded and said gratefully:
"Director Liu, we are already very grateful that you can give us a chance. How can we be picky about the work?"
"Uncle Liu, thank you for giving me this job opportunity. I will definitely do my best in the future."
Jiang Yang stood up and bowed in thanks.
On the way here, his uncle had already given him a vaccination.
It will never be his turn to be a regular worker in this factory.
My uncle heard a rumor that Director Liu was planning to build a new brewery. Even though I would be a temporary worker if I went in now, once I got the job done and performed well, it would only be a matter of time before I was promoted to a regular employee.
For him, this was an opportunity. Even if he was a temporary worker, he could still earn a salary of more than ten yuan, which was better than earning work points in the fields.
Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Seize the opportunity and you may get an unexpected surprise!
In this way, the three of them had a great chat and agreed on a time to start work.
......
After leaving the factory director's office, I returned to my uncle's house.
Jiang Yang was worried about home and wanted to tell them the good news, so he said goodbye to his uncle and aunt.
His uncle and aunt gave him a few more food coupons and asked him to take them home to supplement the family income.
He couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it.
I secretly swore in my heart that I would make a name for myself in the future and repay my uncle and aunt!
There was a long-distance bus stop outside the food factory’s staff quarters. He waited for a while and the bus stopped.
He spent three cents to buy a ticket, and after getting on the bus, he thought to himself:
The temporary worker's salary is 15 yuan a month, including lunch.
I got up at 7 o'clock in the morning and took the early long-distance bus, getting off at the stop near the food factory.
After entering the factory, I followed the factory's work arrangements, took my work badge at noon, and had lunch in the food factory's canteen.
I take a two-hour lunch break, get off work at five in the afternoon, and then take a long-distance bus home.
There are two days off a week. Any extra days are considered overtime and there are overtime allowances.
A conservative estimate of the cost of commuting per month is about RMB 1.32.
Eating lunch at the factory can save food for home.
Overall, I can earn more than thirteen yuan a month, which is a good deal.
My uncle also said that this is temporary. If he performs well, he might be able to become a regular employee early. Regularization means a salary of 30 yuan and various tickets that regular employees can get.
He felt that he was not afraid of hard work. With a goal in mind, he felt full of energy!
......
Su Miantang sat quietly at the desk in front of the window, concentrating on translating the manuscript in his hands.
Time passed minute by minute, and before we knew it, the translated manuscripts had piled up into a thick stack.
Since she used Hero brand ink, in order to avoid the ink staining the paper, she would put each completed manuscript aside to let the ink dry, and then carefully arrange and stack them in order of page numbers.
Yes, page numbers, this is a little habit she has in her translation work.
She would write the corresponding numbers in pencil in an inconspicuous place at the bottom of each manuscript to facilitate subsequent sorting and searching.
After a busy day, Su Miantang finally put down his pen and looked up.
At this moment, she realized that it was already late, and she couldn't help but start looking forward to it:
It’s late now, he should be back soon, right?
She stood up, stretched her body, pressed her stiff waist with her hands, and rubbed her sore neck.
Then, she left the room and walked towards the main hall, ready to check the time on the large wall clock...
Village entrance——
After the long-distance bus stopped, Jiang Yang got off and patted the dust off his trouser legs.
This new suit of clothes was specially made for him by his wife with cloth, so it must not be dirty.
Suddenly, a foul odor came.
I saw a woman carrying a dung bucket approaching, shouting as she walked -
"Hey, Jiang Laosan, where have you been? Why did you get off the long-distance bus?"
Jiang Yang ran away without saying a word.
It stinks so much. What if it gets on his clothes? Oh no, it will make his clothes smell bad. He will be sorry for his wife!
"Hey, Jiang Laosan, why are you running?"
The woman was carrying a dung bucket and couldn't catch up with the other person at all.
I couldn't help but mumble a few times, feeling confused.
The men and women who had just finished their work laughed together and shouted:
"Niu's family, you're carrying a dung bucket, it's really smelly, how can Jiang Laosan not run away?"
"That's right, my new wife is as beautiful as a fairy. If she smells the bad smell, will Jiang Lao San still be able to sleep with her tonight?"
"Hush, keep your voices down. There are unmarried girls and educated youth here."
"Oh, what's there to be ashamed of? It's just like that. Living together as a couple is just..."
When older women get together, they talk a lot of dirty talk.
The girls who were not married yet naturally hid and eavesdropped.
The female educated youth avoided them and cursed the old rural women in their hearts for being gossipy and saying anything.
Even if they have to be old maids for the rest of their lives, they would rather not marry a rural man!
They firmly believed that they would be able to return to the city!
