Chapter 48 Recommended Jobs
"Are you interested in being my apprentice? The salary is 14 yuan a month."
The maintenance master looked at Zhao Yi and smiled.
He only had a vague idea about repairing radios, so he took Zhao Yi in as an apprentice because he thought Zhao Yi could do it himself, so that he wouldn't have to do many things himself in the future.
"I am registered in Shanyang County, so I may not be able to work in the city."
Zhao Yi shook his head. It was not that he didn't want to be an apprentice, but he had no way to solve his household registration problem.
"There is also a department store in Shanyang County. They are in need of a repairman. Are you interested?"
The maintenance master looked at Zhao Yi and said immediately.
Nowadays, every department store needs to be equipped with a maintenance technician, but there are only a few people who can do maintenance. It is not possible to find two or three in a city, not to mention that the county town cannot deploy manpower to provide support when needed. The workers in the city hardly want to provide support.
"They won't accept it without a letter of introduction."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"Fifty dollars. I'll ask the department store manager to write you a letter of introduction. You can pay me after you get the job."
The maintenance man laughed.
If it was any other job, he would have asked his relatives to do it long ago, but this job is impossible to do without basic skills. Letting relatives come as apprentices when he himself is a half-baked person, not to mention misleading others, if others are smarter than him, this job may be replaced in the future.
"OK."
Zhao Yi nodded. Of course he would be willing to do such a good thing.
Although hunting and trading wild boar meat are highly profitable, it is not the right way to go after all. Nowadays, being a worker is considered a job that allows people to get ahead, and spending money is legal.
The maintenance master asked for Zhao Yi's name and home address and happily went upstairs. Not long after, he came down with a letter of introduction.
"I'll take a leave of absence tomorrow and wait for you at the entrance of Shanyang County Department Store. I'll give you a letter of introduction then. How about you give me fifty yuan after you start working?"
The maintenance technician said with a smile.
Now that I have given Zhao Yi a letter of introduction, what if he doesn't acknowledge it in the future?
"good."
Zhao Yi nodded, then gave the repairman two dollars, carried the radio into the department store, bought a power strip, and went back home.
It was completely dark when Zhao Yi got home.
After returning home, Zhao Yi connected the power strip and then plugged in the radio. Immediately, Zhang Jing happily sat next to the radio and listened quietly to the sound coming from the radio.
"Wife, I may have to go to the county town tomorrow. Today I met a maintenance master in the city. He saw that I have good skills and wanted to recommend me to be a maintenance master in our county town.
But you have to give him a bribe of fifty dollars. ”
Zhao Yi looked at Zhang Jing and said while eating.
“Is a maintenance technician considered a formal employee?”
Zhang Jing immediately looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"Of course he is. How can a maintenance worker in a department store not be considered a formal employee?"
Zhao Yi explained with a smile.
Zhang Jing's face was immediately filled with smiles.
early morning.
Zhao Yi got up very early, washed, put on the new work clothes given to him by his brother-in-law, took fifty yuan and rushed to the county town. When he arrived at the commune, he spent two cents to get on the tractor to the county town.
When we arrived at the department store, the maintenance technician was already at the door.
There are two buses between the county and the city every day, and the ticket fare is 50 cents per trip.
It only takes more than two hours to get from the county to the city by car, but it takes at least ten hours to walk.
"Let's go, Comrade Zhao."
Seeing Zhao Yi's brand new work clothes, the maintenance master was slightly surprised. This was the treatment only for regular workers. It must be that someone in this kid's family was a regular worker, and the two had a good relationship.
Otherwise, who would be willing to give away their new clothes?
"Hello, Director Xiao. I am a maintenance worker at Pingyang Department Store. I brought the maintenance master you applied to us here today to report. He is Zhao Yi, a comrade from Wangou Village Brigade of Linkou Commune. He has learned the craft from me for more than two months in the city. He has very strong skills and can handle basic problems by himself.
That's why our director decided to send him here. ”
The maintenance master lied with a smile on his face, not feeling embarrassed at all. Instead, he was very calm. If Zhao Yi hadn't been the person involved, he would have almost believed it.
"In Linkou Commune, it is very difficult to change from being a farmer to a non-agricultural worker now."
The department store manager said with some embarrassment.
"The problem is that the maintenance staff is also in short supply now. You need a maintenance technician stationed here. If you don't need him here, then I can only recommend him to the next county."
The maintenance technician did not mention the issue of rural-to-urban migration. He said that the staff had already been sent to you. If you cannot solve some minor problems, the city will definitely not send maintenance personnel in the future. There may not be time to repair the items sent for repair.
I sent a technician to solve your problem, but you refused it because it was just a small trouble. You should find a way to solve the problem yourself in the future.
"These are not a problem. I'll go to the Labor Bureau. Then I'll trouble Master Zhang to go there in person. Comrade Zhao Yi, right? Can you go to work today? We have already prepared all the tools. There are several radios that need to be processed."
The director looked at Zhao Yi and said.
Zhao Yi knew that the time had come to test himself. If it couldn't be repaired, then sorry, we can't handle the issue of agricultural-to-non-agricultural conversion. You should go back to being an apprentice. If it can be repaired, then this problem will not be a problem.
Zhao Yi nodded, indicating that he was able to go to work.
Then I followed the director to the repair shop on the first floor, took out the radio that needed repair from the counter and began to disassemble and inspect it. The tools here were indeed complete, including multimeters and other things.
More than ten minutes later, a broken radio was repaired, and the heavy expression on the director's face suddenly became relaxed.
"Master Zhao, let's complete the entry procedures first before we get to work. There's no rush."
Zhao Yi was a little surprised at how quickly the director changed his expression.
However, it would be best if you can get the job. Once it is entered into your file, you will be a real worker and it will be basically impossible to fire you.
Zhao Yi quickly completed the employment procedures, received the key to the store, and a handwritten work badge.
When he arrived at the store, the city's repairman looked at Zhao Yi with a smile.
Zhao Yi quickly took out fifty yuan and a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and handed them over.
"Work hard, Xiao Zhao. Maybe we can become colleagues in the future."
After saying this, the maintenance master happily walked towards the station.
Zhao Yi continued to work in the repair shop. When Director Xiao of the department store came back from a trip to the Labor Bureau, Zhao Yi had already finished repairing four radios in the store.
The radio volume is being tested at this time.
"Comrade Zhao is indeed a comrade with excellent skills in the city. Now we don't have to encounter any trouble to send him to the city."
Director Xiao said happily.
I thought it was someone's relative who used his connections to get in through the back door, but I didn't expect that I was overthinking it. It was indeed a technician.
