After the evening rush hour was over, He Wenlin finally had time to meet Huang Chunxiang, Grandma Ruan's cousin.
Huang Chunxiang looked clean and tidy, especially her hands, which were spotless under her nails. She had also worked in a cafeteria before, so she was considered to have experience in this field.
However, I don't know how to make dumplings or xiaolongbao, so I need to teach me.
"What work hours are you willing to work here?" He Wenlin asked her.
"It's best to do it during the day, but any time of day is fine."
"Then come over at eight o'clock tomorrow. You can eat here or go back to eat lunch. Lunch time is forty minutes. You finish get off work at four-forty in the afternoon. If we need to rush orders, we may finish get off work later, but that will still be paid. If business is not good, we may not have to work eight hours. Can you accept that?"
Temporary workers, of course, have unstable work schedules.
If there's work to do, you get paid; if there's no work, you rest and don't get paid.
"I understand being a temporary worker, I accept it." Huang Chunxiang is also aware that at her age, it is still quite difficult to find a stable and fixed job.
Therefore, she doesn't have high expectations.
"The wage is 2.5 yuan per hour, and the salary is paid on time at the end of each month, but it may be delayed by one or two days if there are holidays."
Now, all of He Wenlin's shop employees are paid monthly.
He Wenlin has a good reputation. She pays daily or monthly, and no one has any objections. As long as there is enough to be paid, that's fine.
"no problem."
“I don’t like people who disappear without a reason, nor do I like people who are not punctual. So if you come to work for me, you have to be there when I’m scheduled to work. If you have something to do, you must let me know in advance. I hope you can understand that.”
"Don't worry, Mr. He, that's the kind of people we are."
"Then come to the store at eight o'clock tomorrow. From now on, Grandma Ruan will teach you how to make dumplings. Grandma Ruan, I'm entrusting this to you. You must teach Grandma Huang to be as good as you are."
Grandma Ruan was so pleased with He Wenlin's words that she couldn't stop smiling. Even though she was old, she still liked to hear her boss's praise.
After Huang Chunxiang left, He's mother said to He Wenlin, "Linlin, the shop over there has been taken over, hasn't it?"
"Yes, the original owner promised to clear out the premises by noon tomorrow. We'll tile the walls, buy the equipment, and then we can choose a date to open for business. If all goes well, it should only take a week or two."
Aunt He hesitated for a moment and said, "Your third aunt said last time that she wanted your uncle to bring Xiao Kai over. We didn't need any more people here before, so I didn't agree. Now that we've taken over the branch, and Lingfeng, Xiaomin, and your brother are about to start school, we'll be short three people. We need to hire more people anyway..."
"They can come here to work, but we need to make things clear: the salary is 600 yuan including room and board, with a 13th-month bonus at the end of the year, two days off per month, and about 11 hours of work per day. If business is good, there will be bonuses, but the exact amount is uncertain."
If they are very busy, like this month when they were busy making dumplings and xiaolongbao, Shanshan, Erge, and Linfei worked very hard, working overtime every day and were exhausted like dogs. I will still pay them overtime wages.
The problem now is that Shanshan, Lin Fei, and her second brother arrived earlier and are more experienced, so their salaries will definitely be higher than those of her third aunt's husband and Xiao Kai. Will they feel resentful? Will they feel that they're being treated unfairly, since they're all relatives?
Upon hearing this, Aunt He quickly said, "That shouldn't be the case. People who come early and become more experienced earn more money, which is normal."
"You have to think it's normal, but they have to think it's normal too."
In her previous life, when He Wenlin was a supervisor's assistant, she really saw a lot of low-level employees arguing and bickering over small amounts of money.
This month, so-and-so worked half an hour more overtime than me.
This month, so-and-so worked one more day on the early shift than me.
This month, I worked one more night shift than so-and-so?
This year, so-and-so got a raise that was 10 yuan more than mine?
Some employees are so bizarre that they keep track of other people's overtime hours every day, knowing more about their overtime hours than the people themselves do!
He Wenlin didn't want someone who was too calculating, and her third uncle was a bit calculating.
He Wenlin is willing to help relatives and friends, but she doesn't want to cause trouble. If she doesn't know the other person's personality, that's one thing, but if she does know, why call them over? Isn't that just asking for trouble?
“Now that they’re here, they’ll definitely be doing the washing and scrubbing work in the beginning. I’ve already talked to my second brother and Lin Fei and decided to train them to be head chefs, so they’ll do the washing and scrubbing, but it won’t be their main job. Then my third uncle, Xiao Kai, will be doing that. The jobs are different, so will they be able to balance it out?”
What He Wenlin is lacking now is people to wash vegetables and deliver them to various factories. Once they arrive, they will definitely take over the work of Ruan Lingfeng and his sister.
Although no job is inherently superior or inferior, being a chef and washing vegetables are still different. Everyone knows which job offers better prospects.
Aunt He: "You mean you disagree?"
“You can tell Auntie that business is unstable right now. If business is stable, Xiao Kai can come out with us after the New Year.”
My aunt and cousin Tang Xiaokai are actually quite capable; He Wenlin is willing to help them out.
Tang Xiaokai is a generous person, but he was a very mediocre person in his past life. He often messed around and would spend any money he had on frivolous things. He wasn't good-looking, but he was smooth-talking and generous to girls, and he changed girlfriends one after another.
Actually, my mother's relatives are all quite nice, especially my uncle and aunt.
Now that He Wenlin has the opportunity to be reborn, she is naturally willing to help her relatives and friends so that they can live a better life.
