As it turns out, changing work hours is completely ineffective.
Because I got up too early, I was actually not as energetic as I was when I was up late at night.
At least for the first two hours, they were able to concentrate.
Shen Yanming originally thought that by changing his work hours and contributing that can of coffee, he would be at a loss!
As a result, they kept gulping down the food after dawn, but their brains just wouldn't work.
cough!
Finally, noon arrived, and Shen Yanming took out his rice bowl with green peppers and shredded pork. Although the food was cold, it still tasted good.
The others looked at Shen Yanming's lunchbox, which was full of meat and vegetables, and were quite envious. But no one said they wanted to try it.
There was this one unlucky guy who brought a box of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. After a few hours, the tomatoes had turned a bit sour.
Alas, you know, tomatoes are vegetables that spoil very easily. Under high temperatures, they will taste bad in just a few hours.
I don't know what the child was thinking, preparing such a meal.
Ji Xingbao tasted one bite of his own food, then spat it out twice.
When he noticed everyone was looking at him, he gave an awkward smile, said nothing, and continued eating.
Seeing this, Guo Tingshuo immediately stepped forward, snatched Ji Xingbao's food, put his own on Ji Xingbao's table, and said, "You eat mine!"
"No, Captain! I love tomato and egg!"
Guo Tingshuo glared at him, "Just eat what I tell you to eat, stop talking nonsense!"
"No, I'm tired of the fatty meat in your dish!" Guo Tingshuo brought stir-fried pork intestines, which really had nothing to do with fatty meat.
"Alright, just eat what I tell you to eat, stop talking nonsense. Come to think of it, it was my oversight that I didn't think about the meal. Did you get this tomato and egg dish from the cafeteria last night? You should eat less of this kind of dish in the summer, it spoils easily."
After Guo Tingshuo finished speaking, he took a spoon and ate a big bite of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that had gone bad.
No one else saw it and stopped it.
They were all guards and knew how scarce food was. Even if the food was a little spoiled, none of them could bear to throw it away.
Shen Yanming put down the lunchbox in his hand, feeling somewhat uneasy.
He stood up and bowed to everyone: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect your food to spoil. I..."
Guo Tingshuo raised his hand to quell the commotion and laughed, "What kind of trouble is this old Shen causing? What does the spoiled food have to do with him? Why is he rushing out to apologize? Don't you think it's funny?"
"funny!"
Shen Yanming...
I feel like all my emotions from just now have vanished, and I suddenly don't know what to say.
He took a deep breath before saying, "I have a key to the break room next door; there's a refrigerator there. But I've been in the office for so long and haven't reminded anyone to put their lunchboxes in the fridge..."
If I had told him, Ji Xingbao's food probably wouldn't have gone bad.
Although he knew that saying this might invite resentment, Comrade Shen couldn't get past his conscience and chose to be honest.
However, after he finished speaking, he noticed that no one's expression had changed.
Just as he was wondering what was going on, Guo Tingshuo said, "That lounge belongs to Qiao An. Captain Li emphasized that it was for Qiao An's use and no one else was allowed to use it. You are her spouse and have the right to use it. But the other colleagues don't."
You might find it rigid, but that's the order. So even though we knew there was a refrigerator there, we didn't mention it because it would be against the rules for us to use it.
Don't feel guilty. Even if you bring it up, the result will be the same. They're all native guards; discipline is practically ingrained in their bones. You can't sway them with just a few words.
Shen Yanming sat down, no longer feeling guilty for not offering the refrigerator to everyone. Instead, he felt powerless because he could never truly integrate into the group.
Just as Guo Tingshuo said, there is a big difference between him, who came to this profession later in life, and the local people.
Just like when faced with the same situation, one person might be thinking about how to achieve the result, while the other person is thinking about how to achieve the result while obeying orders.
Sigh, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, it's pointless anyway.
After lunch, Guo Tingshuo gave everyone two hours to rest.
He can do whatever he wants, even if he has to go home in the sun, he doesn't care, as long as he comes to work at 2:30.
Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Shen Yanming also left.
It turned out that they had all gone to chat with their colleagues in other offices, while Shen Yanming stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
In the end, I opened the door to the lounge and went inside to sleep.
Lying in bed, he was still thinking, wondering if there would ever be a day when he would no longer feel distant from them.
Time flew by and it was already afternoon. After working for more than ten hours, the team members couldn't take it anymore.
They were all sprawled out on their office chairs, eager to go home and relax.
Guo Tingshuo was also having a hard time. After being idle for so long, suddenly having to go through such a high-intensity period would exhaust anyone!
He asked, "Do you think these working hours are reasonable?"
"Captain, is there even a question? If it were reasonable, everyone would be exhausted. Please revise it again. Even if it's like before, coming out in the middle of the night would be better than this super long standby time. I'm suffering so much!"
"Me too, I won't make a fuss anymore, let's do it tonight!"
Guo Tingshuo smiled helplessly: "You're the ones who talked about daytime, and you're the ones who talked about nighttime too. Now that you've changed your minds, you're not allowed to go back on your word."
"No regrets, no regrets. I promise I'll get a good night's sleep this afternoon so I'll be full of energy when I work tonight."
"So you didn't sleep during the day the other day? No wonder you were so sleepy at night! With your eyelids drooping like that, how could you not misread the data?"
“You’re not much better than me, are you? Aren’t you also struggling to keep your eyes open? We’re about the same, so let’s not laugh at each other. Besides, I’ve checked the data twice to make sure there are no mistakes.”
"Okay, okay, I believe you. But to be honest, it's probably just my lifestyle. I can't sleep in the afternoon, but I sleep soundly at night. I don't know how long it would take if I forced myself to change."
“It’ll be done in a few days, trust me!” Miao Yifeng pointed to his dark circles: “I thought I was like you, but look, I tried it last night and couldn’t sleep. I guess it was because of working at night the other night.”
"Yes, when you get home in the early hours of the morning, don't rush to rest. Hold on until noon, have lunch, and then go to sleep. I guarantee you'll sleep soundly until dark and still be full of energy at night."
"You make it sound so nice, but you didn't seem that energetic the other day?"
"Ugh, I only figured that out yesterday, and then they changed my work hours today, which made me waste all my energy last night. Now that I'm in the office, all I can do is yawn."
