By noon, everyone in the Su family knew that Su Yu had been transferred to a different position.
Su Lin and Liu Mei were both so shocked that their jaws dropped to the floor.
Liu Mei looked closely at her sister-in-law and suddenly noticed that her sister-in-law's face had become fuller, her skin looked rosy, and her eyes radiated confidence. Most importantly, she was now working at her company's labor union.
The sister-in-law, whom I used to look down on, now makes me feel ashamed when I compare myself to her.
Su Lin looked at her eldest sister with starry eyes. She wanted to study, just to get a degree so she could find a job later.
Nowadays, even easy jobs require a degree. A junior high school graduate can at most get an apprenticeship and start from there, just like her sister-in-law Liu Mei.
Now my sister has even become a union leader and staff member.
My sister is really amazing!
"Alright, it's not a big deal. Take it easy. It's all the same no matter where you work. You're all contributing to the country's development and striving for a better future," Su Yu said, feigning an educational tone.
The whole family nodded in agreement. "Sister, we understand."
My sister is a capable person! Everything she says makes sense.
In the afternoon, Su Yu began handing over her work. Every worker in the workshop who passed by would glance at her.
Su Yu said frankly, “Comrades, I believe my experience is definitely not the last one. This is the factory’s way of cultivating us frontline workers. So everyone must work hard, improve their own work skills, and actively learn new ideas and theories to keep up with the development of society. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”
Hearing Su Yu's words, the workers who were initially envious and jealous felt a surge of excitement.
If Su Yu can go now, maybe others can go tomorrow too.
Who knows if it will be my turn?
Even if it's not me, my own daughter or son can take over my job after they graduate. They're young, so they might have a chance too.
"Comrades, I came from the front lines. Now that I've come out, I represent all of us frontline workers. I won't let you down. I've been with you for over ten years, and you're like family to me. If you ever have any difficulties, come to the trade union. I will serve you wholeheartedly. The trade union is an organization that helps workers solve their problems and protects their interests. If you had any inconveniences before, you don't have to worry about them anymore. You can come to me, your family."
"Su Yu, I knew you were a good person. Over the years, we've known you're reliable."
"Yes, he's usually quiet, but he's very reliable when it comes to getting things done."
"Anyone who can raise their younger siblings is a good person."
"Come back to visit us often in the future."
Su Yu smiled and hugged her close friends and family, saying, "Of course I had to come back to see you all. You're like family to me."
"From now on, Su Yu will be our clerk, Su."
"We've produced a capable person now," someone laughed. There was also a hint of reluctance.
An old colleague left the workshop just like that. Even if we meet again in the future, it won't be the same.
"Su Yu, isn't it time for you to get married? How's your boyfriend? When are you getting married?" an older woman gossiped.
Su Yu: "..."
She said with a serious expression, "Work at the factory is the most important thing. I've only just joined the union, and I need to spend more time serving my fellow workers. I won't think about anything else for now. My partner is a reasonable person and will understand me. His thinking must be aligned with mine. After all, I've supported his work over the years. Comrades-in-arms need to support each other."
People realized that Su Yu hadn't married all these years, which seemed to be to support her partner's work. Now that Su Yu needs to work, her partner should wait.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Su Yu went directly to Director Xu's office.
Su Zhi's job still falls to this person.
As someone who manages the production workshop, Director Xu's opinion is still very important.
"Director Xu, I've almost finished the handover. I'll be going to the union tomorrow morning."
Now that Su Yu is a union officer, she is naturally viewed differently by Director Xu than before.
She smiled and said, "Come back often in the future."
"I will definitely come back often, after all, I have been here for so many years. I have a deep affection for this place. Most importantly, Director Xu, you have given me a lot of help, and I will always remember it. Don't laugh at me, Director, but I have always regarded you as an elder. Without your guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"Look at you." Director Xu smiled, his eyes crinkling.
The same words, spoken by people of different backgrounds, carry different weight. Hearing this from a successful person warmed her heart and made her feel it was all worthwhile. It wasn't for nothing that she'd taken care of Su Yu; this would definitely become part of her network in the future.
Workplaces are places where personal relationships matter; you never know when you might need someone's help. The key point is that Su Yu is so sincere towards her.
"By the way, Director, after I leave, will you need to recruit someone for my position?"
Director Xu nodded, "Yes, we'll need to recruit from outside later."
Su Yu's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked expectantly, "Director, how about our Zhicheng?"
“Zhi is a man. Isn’t it inappropriate for him to be a textile worker?” Director Xu asked in surprise. The key point was that she had some ulterior motives.
“I know, Director Xu. To be honest, I don’t want a boy to do such a good position. It should be given to a girl. Don’t you have a niece who works in the soft fabric workshop? That kind of work is not good for her health if she works long hours. Why don’t you let her take over my position? When the factory committee talked to me today, they asked for my opinion, and I mentioned it at the time.”
