Chapter 209 Zhang Dongmei is punished
"Comrade Zhang, I have to say something to you. Is this something you can just joke about? At the very least, you're being jealous and smearing Comrade Su. At the most, you're smearing the image of our entire department store sales staff."
Yan Guohua looked at Zhang Dongmei seriously.
Zhang Dongmei felt frightened by his stare and was so trembling that she couldn't speak.
"Comrade Su's family won the bid thanks to their own hard work. Instead of looking within yourselves for the reasons why you weren't selected, you're trying every possible way to smear and slander them. This is truly unethical."
He glanced around, finally landing on Zhang Dongmei. "Now that things have come to this, Comrade Zhang, since this rumor originated from you, you must be held responsible for this matter. You must record this as a demerit. In addition, everyone who participated in the riot will have ten yuan deducted from their monthly salary."
Hearing this, Zhang Dongmei's face turned even paler. It would be fine if her salary was deducted, but why should she be given a disciplinary punishment?
You should know that people who have been punished will not be able to participate in any outstanding employee selection within three years.
How can this be possible?
She looked at Yan Guohua pitifully: "General Manager, it is indeed my fault, but I was just joking and didn't intend to target anyone."
Several salespeople behind him immediately stood up and said, "Zhang Dongmei, what's your point? You have no evidence, yet you're trying to trick us into being the scapegoats. You've caused us to have our wages docked for no reason, and now you're calling it a joke. How can you be so joking?"
Zhang Dongmei dragged me here to cause trouble, but not only did I not get any benefits, I was also scolded by my leader for nothing and had my salary deducted. Anyone would feel bad about it.
"That's right! If you hadn't sworn that Comrade Su got in through the backdoor, we wouldn't have gotten involved in this. Aren't you using us as pawns?"
“This…this…”
Zhang Dongmei wanted to explain anxiously, but she didn't know how.
His face turned pale, his body swayed, and he leaned backward uncontrollably and fainted on the spot.
After a long while, she slowly woke up, grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's hand, and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Xiaoxiao, this is all my fault. Please forgive me this time. After all, we are from the same hometown. Please ask the general manager for help. You can deduct any amount from my salary. Can you please not record my demerit? If I do, all my efforts over the years will be in vain."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped herself several times, "Xiaoxiao, you can hit me or scold me, I apologize to you, I make amends to you, just help me put in a good word to the general manager."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, and she looked extremely pitiful.
Su Xiaoxiao sighed. If she had known this would happen, why did she do it in the first place?
"Comrade Zhang, you shouldn't beg me for help on this matter. You should beg the general manager. He was wrongly accused by you of accepting bribes to get me a job through the backdoor. What a huge injustice!"
A salesperson suddenly spoke up: "General Manager, I'm sorry, we were definitely wrong in this matter. We shouldn't have listened to Comrade Zhang's one-sided statement."
As she spoke, she bowed deeply to Su Xiaoxiao and Yan Guohua.
Others followed suit.
"General Manager, please be kind and don't hold grudges against us. We were blinded by greed and did such foolish things."
Several salespeople who followed took the initiative to apologize to the general manager, and then looked at Su Xiaoxiao with guilt on their faces.
Comrade Su suffered such a great injustice, but he still thought about them first and secretly suggested that they apologize to the general manager. What a great vision he has.
Thinking of the commotion they had just caused, the sales assistants all blushed with embarrassment.
Seeing that everyone had spoken before her, Zhang Dongmei struggled to get up from the ground and threw herself in front of Yan Guohua: "General Manager, this is all my fault. I was blinded by jealousy and made up lies to slander Comrade Su. I am willing to accept the punishment, including salary deductions, no matter how much. Just because I sincerely repent, can you please let this demerit go?"
Yan Guohua sighed and stood up with his lunch box. "Comrade Zhang, it seems you still haven't realized your mistake. This matter is settled."
After saying this, he took the lunch box and left.
Xu Cuilan, who was sitting next to him, also stood up, glanced at Zhang Dongmei, shook her head, and turned away.
After such a commotion, Su Xiaoxiao lost interest in eating. She covered the remaining food in the lunch box and left with it.
The few salespeople who had come to cause trouble looked at each other and then dispersed.
Only Zhang Dongmei was left, standing there like a defeated rooster, lost in thought.
After a while, she clenched her fists. Su Xiaoxiao had made her lose face so much today, and she would definitely not let her go.
Unexpectedly, before she could let Su Xiaoxiao go, she would start to have trouble.
When she was at work in the afternoon, many people surrounded her and pointed at her.
It turned out that several female comrades who had a good relationship with her also ignored her.
Zhang Dongmei felt aggrieved, but had no place to vent her anger, so she could only sulk.
So much so that she had a gloomy face the whole afternoon and didn't even smile when she saw customers coming to her door.
Before the end of get off work time, Chen Meilan came over with a serious face.
"Zhang Dongmei, what's going on? You're here to work, not to be a boss. Do you know how many customers have complained about you this afternoon?"
The position of Director of Human Resources is originally a rather leisurely one, and it has indeed been like this in the past.
Unexpectedly, this afternoon, she received several letters of complaint, all from Zhang Dongmei.
"If you don't want to do it, don't do it. If you want to do it, then show me your attitude. We salespeople are here to serve the people, not to have them look down on us."
Zhang Dongmei blushed at these words. She clenched her fists and then unclenched them. After a long pause, she said, "Director Chen, I know I was wrong. I'm sorry. I will pay more attention next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a noisy sound coming from outside.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw three men in Zhongshan suits with neatly combed hair walking towards them.
Zhang Yulan nudged Su Xiaoxiao: "Where did this leader come from? What does he do?"
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. How would she know?
Just looking at these people walking in with square steps and calm demeanor, it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
As everyone was discussing, the middle-aged man in the lead glanced around, frowned, and said, "Excuse me, who is Comrade Su Xiaoxiao Su? We are from the Industry and Commerce Bureau and we need to consult her about something."
When Zhang Dongmei heard this, her face turned from gloomy to bright. The comrades from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau had finally arrived. Su Xiaoxiao was in trouble.
