After saying a few words briefly, President Hou and Director Zhang looked silently at the area where the houses were being distributed.
Director Pi's loudspeaker kept calling out numbers, and people kept walking past and coming back.
It is said to be allocating houses, but in fact it is just looking at the house of your choice on the drawing, then signing on it and getting the keys.
In addition to the newly built buildings here, the houses to be divided this time also include three previously built dormitories.
But those who came this morning were all here for the new housing. There were 288 houses in this compound, with six six-story dormitories lined up from south to north, all brand new and impressive.
This dormitory has the best location. Compared with the other three, it is located in the city center and is surrounded by schools, hospitals, markets, etc. In particular, there is a primary school here, which is a key primary school in the city.
Everyone who came to choose a house this morning was very happy, happier than anyone else. It was obvious: there were 288 houses, but only 250 people came to choose one this morning. In other words, they could have chosen a house in this courtyard this morning.
President Gao and the others didn't need to come here in person to select their units; their units were larger and had been built specifically for them. They simply signed the blueprints Director Pi presented to them, following the order. Therefore, when the 288 units were distributed, they became 278.
No one would care about this. Being a leader had privileges; you could get a house first, and a big one at that. It was an unwritten rule, and no one was so stubborn as to make a fuss about it.
At around nine o'clock, Director Zhang heard Director Pi call out a number, so he turned to President Hou and said, "Oh, it's my turn. I'll go over first."
President Hou had already heard that the number just now was 80. Now when he heard Director Zhang say that it was his turn, he couldn't help but be startled.
I only started working two years later than Director Zhang, yet our rankings are so different. I'm number 151, and Director Zhang is number 80, a difference of almost double.
"It's your turn, right? You go first."
After saying this, President Hou felt a little sour in his heart.
It's impossible not to be sad! This time, the city branch clearly stipulated that those who work at the city branch can get an extra ten points.
In other words, even if Director Zhang and President Hou have the same scoring indicators, Director Zhang, as the director of the credit department of the municipal branch, will get ten more points than President Hou, who is the president of the branch.
Are the people in your city branch naturally superior? President Hou cursed in his heart.
In fact, this provision has been the most controversial since the housing allocation plan was first announced. Those working at the grassroots branches have criticized it countless times, including President Hou.
But even though he'd cursed at the time, the sour feeling inside him wasn't as strong as it was then. Now that he saw how draconian this rule was, allowing Director Zhang, who had only been employed two years before him, to be ranked 80th, President Hou felt more than just sour; it was like a jar of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and sugar had been overturned, with all sorts of emotions mixed together.
It's all my fault for being too busy with work and not paying enough attention to the housing allocation. Otherwise, I could have found someone myself and gotten a higher score.
President Hou and Director Zhang currently live on the same floor, across from each other. President Hou is confident that after this housing adjustment, Director Zhang's family will definitely be on a good floor.
And his own home might be on a higher floor. The more he thought about it, the angrier and sadder he became, and President Hou almost cursed out loud.
About half an hour later, President Hou heard number 100 being called and took a look towards the direction where the housing was being allocated. He was stunned by what he saw.
Because she saw Vice President Fu waving to Director Pi and heard her shouting "Coming, coming------"
Vice President Fu was number 100? If I remembered correctly, she came to work later than me. Besides, she was a vice president, not the head of the department, so in that respect, her score was lower than mine.
But she was actually number 100! President Hou was so angry that he almost fainted.
If she had just compared scores with Director Zhang, because of the superior rule, President Hou was just angry and didn't feel that he had suffered much of a loss.
She is not the only one who suffers, everyone working in the branch suffers.
But Vice President Fu's score was higher than hers, and she couldn't stand it. People are like this: a rich man won't compare his wealth with a beggar, but he will definitely compare with another rich man.
The same goes for President Hou. She can tolerate the superior rules of the municipal branch, and she can also argue with Director Zhang about who has a higher score, but she absolutely cannot tolerate that Vice President Fu, who has a lower position than her and works in the same branch, has a higher score than her.
The vice president scored higher than the president? It's not the method of calculating the scores that's wrong, it's the people who are wrong.
President Hou couldn't stand it any longer. But she knew this wasn't the place or the time to get angry. So, she walked to a more secluded spot and pulled out her phone.
President Hou called President Gao. After the call was connected, President Hou said directly, "How come Vice President Fu is ranked ahead of me? It seems that her years of experience and current position are not as good as mine."
President Gao on the other end of the line seemed stunned and remained silent for a moment. President Hou continued to wait, expecting an explanation from President Gao, who was currently in charge of the housing allocation.
After a while, President Gao said, "President Hou, the thing about President Fu is that before she came to your branch, she worked at the city branch. So, when the scores were calculated, she was still at the city branch. So, it's not surprising that she ranked ahead of you-------"
It sounded reasonable, but President Hou knew it was a lie. She clearly remembered that the housing allocation plan was not finalized until Vice President Fu started working at the branch.
In other words, when Vice President Fu was working at the municipal branch, the score calculation had not yet begun. How could Vice President Fu have been given an extra ten points based on the treatment of the municipal branch staff?
President Hou was a little angry. She ignored the fact that President Gao was her superior and shouted, "President Gao, this doesn't seem right. I remember that the city branch issued the housing allocation plan only after Vice President Fu came to our branch! How come Vice President Fu got an extra ten points?"
When saying these words, President Hou deliberately emphasized the words "Fu Vice President", as if he was intentionally reminding President Gao that she was the vice president and her position was lower than mine.
Normally, when people address those in deputy positions, they do not use the word "deputy". This is to show respect to the other party and to save trouble.
If you really want to say the word "deputy", it must be to emphasize something.
This is what President Hou did. She wanted to let President Gao know that her score as a full-time employee was lower than that of a deputy, which was a problem.
