Chapter 172 Hiring Employees
The next day, Jian Yu met her loyal employees.
Lupin looked much better. His haggard and sunken cheeks became plump and rosy, and his originally gray hair turned back to black.
He was wearing neat work clothes, and he greeted his current boss with a smile and welcomed her to come and check on the work progress.
"Our production has increased dramatically!" Aberforth put his arm around Jane's shoulders, "Remus is a very good employee, one person can do the work of three people!"
After hearing this, Dobby began to beat himself on the head with a stick out of guilt:
"Oh - bad Dobby - bad Dobby -" It banged loudly.
"Dobby has let Miss Jane down—the great Miss gave Dobby a set of work clothes—and gave Dobby a raise—"
"But Dobby can't even work 24 hours a day! Bad Dobby - bad Dobby -"
As Jian Yu tried to stop him, Duobi's eyes were filled with tears and he kept muttering things like "how can I have the nerve to take wages" and "I feel ashamed of the young lady".
Lupin pressed his twitching eyebrows in distress, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He never imagined that one day he would have to compete with house-elves for jobs!
Unfortunately, he doesn’t understand what involution means, nor does he understand what 996 means.
Otherwise he would have let out a deafening roar:
"Get out of the Hog's Head Bar, King of Rolls!"
His thoughts couldn't help but go back to his first day on the job.
He carried his shabby luggage, put on the best suit of clothes he could afford, and arrived at the scene of the Hog's Head Inn with a stiff look.
Aberforth and Dobby welcomed him warmly and took him to the staff quarters, where work clothes and wolfsbane potion were folded on the bed.
He took a deep breath, smiled sincerely, and realized that he was about to have a happy life.
The fantasy in his mind was soon shattered when he arrived at his post.
Most of the senior employees were like people who had been given a shot of chicken blood. They waved their fingers so fast that they could almost leave afterimages, and the parts automatically came together at a speed of flying.
As it worked it uttered a sharp cry:
"Come on! Try harder! Work harder!"
The passionate voice of Aberforth, the technical instructor and trainer, resounded throughout the workshop:
"Remus! Raise your wand! Cast the spell after me and think about your alchemy!"
This immediately inspired Lupin, and he was moved by the passionate atmosphere here!
Perhaps this is the bravery, courage and generosity of Gryffindor!
Thinking this, he threw himself into the intensive and enthusiastic work.
After eight hours of work, Lupin put down his wand with satisfaction.
When you first start working, you must leave a good impression on your colleagues and leaders so that they will say a few good words about you in front of the boss.
This caused him to work too hard without realizing it. He didn't eat much for lunch and didn't drink much water, which made him feel a little tired.
He was about to go back to the house, but found that Dobby's finger waving speed was no slower than in the morning, and even faster!
Why hasn't it gotten off work yet? !
Lupin rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He asked hesitantly:
"Dobby...uh...aren't you going to rest?"
He received a deafening scream, as if his question touched Dobby's sensitive nerves:
"Oh my god! Rest! How can Dobby have the nerve to rest! Dobby only worked for 8 hours!"
"Does Miss Jane mean to work 8 hours? Does that mean I have to work 8 hours?"
"With a salary like Miss Jane's, a work uniform, and such a nice place to live - Dobby never needs to rest again!"
Lupin was stunned.
Perpetual...perpetual motion machine?
Perhaps this is the cautiousness of a new employee when he first arrives. When he observes senior employees taking the lead in working overtime, he also becomes cautious.
It seems like I shouldn't go downstairs to eat like this? Go back to the house and rest?
Will it make me seem like a loner? Maverick?
Do I need to put a piece of clothing on my workstation to show that I didn’t leave early?
No, this is my first day at work, I can't leave this impression on others -
His steps paused, and he walked back to his workstation uncontrollably, his hand automatically raising his wand.
A few more hours passed, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Lupin kept glancing at Dobby.
Why are its fingers waving faster? !
A surge of power suddenly surged into his heart.
He couldn't beat the elf no matter what he did. He felt like he was going crazy. He almost wanted to turn into a werewolf and grabbed Dobby's collar and asked:
"Don't you eat, drink, or sleep, little brother?"
At three o'clock in the morning, Lupin was in a trance and foaming at the mouth. Looking at Dobby shouting "For Miss Jane!", he felt that the world had become dark.
He actually couldn't compare to the house-elf!
Fortunately, Aberforth saved him in time, preventing him from dying suddenly from staying up late on his first day at work.
"I still have to run the bar!" The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Go to bed early, Remus!"
Lupin felt confused——
Aberforth, you went to work with them in the morning, right? !
At the age of over a hundred... after working all day, you can still run a bar at night? !
With such energy and physical strength, is he over a hundred years old or am I over a hundred years old?
The only useless person in the whole place turned out to be himself? !
......
Although Lupin had subtle doubts about his own abilities, Jian Yu was not aware of this.
She looked at the game consoles in the warehouse with satisfaction and expressed high praise for the huge output.
Look how good she is at selecting employees!
It’s hard to find such cheap and excellent employees even with a lantern!
She knew that as the former professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Lupin would definitely achieve great success in the game console manufacturing business!
Look at the output, it has almost doubled easily!
However, as the business channel she is cooperating with the Malfoy family is about to be completed, there is still a big gap in production.
If only there were more people like this, she could reap the benefits.
"Perhaps you know someone in a similar situation as you?" she asked Lupin. "If they pass the application, they will be provided with food and accommodation, free wolfsbane potion every month, and the salary will be determined by performance - but they cannot actively attack others. This requires an oath."
Lupin was stunned.
You must know that werewolves are not accepted by the wizarding society and are discriminated against in the magical world.
They could hardly find work in the wizarding world - even if they were as well educated as he was.
What's more, wolf poison potion...it is difficult to make and expensive...werewolves can hardly get it...
His boss is a man of great love!
In this world, apart from her, there is almost no one who can be so friendly and non-discriminatory to the werewolf community!
In addition to werewolves, she also established an equal employment relationship with house elves...
Looking at the entire history of wizards, such a scene has never appeared before!
After breaking down the prejudices between the academies, he learned another lesson from her! A lesson against speciesism!
Lupin's eyes were moist. Feeling that he was being greatly respected, he lowered his head and sniffed:
"I do know a few... They were well-educated... They were kind and gentle, and had a positive outlook..."
"But I'm not sure if they will think I'm lying... After all, such excellent job benefits... How could it be possible for a werewolf to..."
As he was talking, a secret thought suddenly popped up in his mind -
If there were a few more employees, I guess Dobby wouldn't force so many people to work overtime until three in the morning, right?
After all, this way, each person will have fewer tasks to do... and everyone will feel more relaxed...
Lupin raised his head sharply and said decisively:
"Jade, I will bring them here no matter what! It's an honor for everyone to work for you!"
But what Lupin didn't expect at this time was——
The "friendly and gentle" werewolves he mentioned shouted enthusiastically, "For the boss!", "If there is no work task, create one!"...
——After joining the company, he worked overtime until four or five in the morning every day, far surpassing Dobby!
They tried assembly line production on their own, shouting "This is our exciting combo!" while banging out the magic spells!
There is even a talent who has divided the professional positions into spells, alchemy, game design, painting art, quality management, level design, etc.
Bathed in the sound of Dobby banging his head against the wall with guilt and crying "Bad Dobby", Lupin gradually became disheveled and began to doubt his life.
This world...his fellow werewolves...isn't it a little abnormal?
Is it his own problem that he can't work 24 hours a day?
