Chapter 86: Human Relations
noon.
It’s not time to get off work yet.
Wen Jing walked to Zhang Jing's workplace. Wen Jing was the workshop director of a workshop in the garment factory. She was also a worker who had worked her way up from an employee to her current position, but now she was considered a factory cadre.
She has the right to recommend positions for regular workers, and the selection of outstanding temporary workers after they have completed their apprenticeship is in her hands. As long as she nods in agreement, they can become regular workers after passing the assessment.
Wen Jing tapped lightly on the surface of Zhang Jing's sewing machine, then pointed towards the office.
Zhang Jing immediately stood up and followed Wen Jing towards the office.
"Zhang Jing, there is no quota for a formal employee this year, but I have seen your efforts. If there is a quota for a formal employee next year, I will recommend you to the higher-ups. Work hard."
Wen Jing looked at Zhang Jing and said.
"I understand, Director Wen. I will work harder."
Zhang Jing nodded immediately.
"By the way, if possible, prepare a copy of the gift you prepared for Director Xu in the General Affairs Office. She has the final say on your assessment. Of course, it's okay if it's inconvenient."
Director Wen said with a smile.
Zhang Jing should be a smart person and would not fail to hear his suggestions. Although he does have the right to recommend, the decision-making power is not in his hands. Perhaps the General Office will give him some face, but this is not absolute. If he wants to be completely sure, he still has to make the right connections himself.
Zhang Jing nodded.
I was a little confused and had no idea what Director Wen meant.
Before she reached her workstation, the music for the end of get off work started playing. Zhang Jing went back to her workstation to tidy up, then walked up to Li Fang and waited for her to get off work together.
The three of them walked towards Zhao Yi's house, talking and laughing.
Zhao Yi had already prepared lunch when he got home. There was almost nothing to do in the department store during the day, so no one would blame Zhao Yi if he left work ten minutes early. He just had to repair the home appliances that were delivered every two days.
But there are not so many home appliances that need repair. Not many people in a county can afford home appliances. In addition, the quality of home appliances is very good nowadays, so not so many are delivered every day.
Among so many workers in the area, almost two-thirds of them own home appliances. Only occasionally would one or two workers bring in home appliances to be repaired at noon every day.
As soon as Li Fang and Peng Yiju entered the house, they smelled the aroma of meat and swallowed unconsciously.
The braised pork on the lunch table was easily finished by several people.
"Oh, this is for you. Give one to the master and the workshop director to build good interpersonal relationships in the factory."
Zhao Yi handed four small pieces of meat to Li Fang and Peng Yiju, each piece of meat weighing about one pound.
The two nodded, took note of Zhao Yi's instructions, and slowly headed back to the factory dormitory.
Zhao Yi originally charged Li Dequan 120 yuan, but now he has only spent less than 15 yuan. He still has to take care of these two people, especially the interpersonal relationships in the factory, which they have to deal with on their own.
"By the way, Brother Yi, today I sent the meat to Director Wen, and she asked me to prepare another one to send to Director Xu in the General Affairs Office. Isn't it enough for us to just be friends with her?"
Zhang Jing couldn't understand why Director Wen should just eat the food himself, so why did he have to give gifts to others? Was it because he didn't give enough?
However, Zhang Jing would come back to discuss anything she couldn't figure out with Zhao Yi.
"She's doing this for your own good, so that you have more options and it will be easier when you become a regular employee. A pound of pork is not worth much, less than 80 cents, but the benefits after becoming a regular employee are more than 80 cents.
Even if you give gifts once a month, your monthly salary is thirty-six yuan. If you take out six yuan for gifts, you will still have thirty yuan left, which is more than twice your apprentice salary of fourteen yuan.
Interpersonal relationships are developed through interaction. Only when people treat you as their own will they help you to make connections. Otherwise, even if you have a gift, you won’t know where to give it. ”
Zhao Yi explained.
Just like when he was trying to find a way to transfer Zhang Jing's household registration and food supply, without the help of Director Tu and Director Li, Zhao Yi didn't even know where to ask.
If you are told to ask around on your own, you will not have any clue even if you work for months.
"Then I'll send it to Director Xu this afternoon."
After listening to Zhao Yi's analysis, Zhang Jing felt that Zhao Yi was right.
There are still temporary workers in the factory who have worked for four or five years but have not been converted to regular employees. It turns out that there are so many tricks in the factory.
This is simple. If you want to become a regular employee based on your ability, unless your skills or speed are unmatched by others, there will be no problem in becoming a regular employee. But you are just an ordinary person, and your speed in making clothes is no different from that of others.
Why would the leader choose you? He could just pick anyone else. But you have a good relationship with him and understand the ways of the world, so it is just a matter of convenience for him to promote you.
This is the principle that Zhao Yi taught Zhang Jing. If she encountered something she didn't understand at the factory, and the other party didn't say anything clearly, she should humbly agree that she understood, and then go home and tell Zhao Yi, who would help her analyze it.
As expected, Zhang Jing went to Wen Jing's office in the afternoon, carrying a pound of wild boar meat.
Wen Jing smiled slightly and then led Zhang Jing to the general office.
If Zhang Jing had sent cigarettes and alcohol, Director Xu might not necessarily accept them. Even malted milk was something the other party had seen a lot of. But meat was not common. A regular worker in a garment factory would only eat two or three taels of it a month.
"Go back to work. You should have a plan for your affairs next year."
Wen Jing felt confident when she saw Director Xu's happy expression.
"People from Wangou Village are so good at being human?"
Wen Jing said to herself.
We received three pounds of meat today, one pound of which was given to Director Xu. These three pounds of meat were sent by people from Wangou Village. Not only did I receive a gift from Peng Yiju, but the temporary workers who taught Peng Yiju also received one pound of meat.
Don't disrespect the other person just because he or she is a temporary worker.
The other capable workers in the workshop were a little envious when they saw that the temporary workers had received a piece of meat. They wondered why they had not taken the initiative to accept these two new girls as apprentices.
In particular, Zhang Jing's master received two kilograms of meat today. That was two kilograms of meat, almost his annual supply, just because the other party brought two apprentices from rural areas.
However, I also gave a thumbs up to these three girls who came from the same place. Such good pork was given away to honor their master. It is rare to find such conscientious apprentices.
There are almost no people nowadays who don’t crave meat.
While feeling regretful, I also wanted to build a good relationship with the three of them. Getting so much meat so easily meant there might be more in the future. If we had a good relationship, they could share some of it with me.
In the afternoon, the workers near the three people would give instructions from time to time, or help out if they were fast at finishing, which made the three people a little confused.
I don’t know why the coworkers have become so kind today.
In the past, you would stay out of things that did not concern you. If you don’t understand something, just ask your master. Doesn’t your master have guidance?
