Chapter 48: Transport Company Job Application
In the evening, Ding Guo calculated Ding Dayong's time to get off work and put out the dumplings he had bought in advance, as well as two stir-fried vegetables.
She was admitted, so of course she had to celebrate.
In fact, it is a disguised way of improving the food.
Ding Dayong got off work, carrying two aluminum lunch boxes in his hands. As soon as he entered the door, he grinned from ear to ear: "Sister, I told you that the factory would definitely hire you."
Ding Guo was surprised: "I haven't told you yet, how do you know I was accepted?"
Ding Dayong put the lunch box on the table and went to get some water to wash his hands and face: "I went to the food factory at noon."
Ding Guo was stunned for a moment: "How did you go to the food factory during lunch time? How did you get there?"
The distance from the garment factory to the food factory is not particularly far, but it is not close either, and there is no bus that goes directly there.
Ding Dayong shook the water off his hands and said casually, "I ran there. It's not far away."
Ding Guo felt so relieved, his cousin really loved him so much.
"It's not that close. Don't do stupid things like this again!"
Ding Dayong disagreed: "How can this be a stupid thing? Big sister's affairs are all important matters, but there are no stupid things!"
Then he saw the dumplings on the table.
Ding Guo also opened the lunch box that Ding Dayong brought back. Inside was a portion of braised pork and a portion of stir-fried vegetables. He smiled and said, "I was thinking that we should celebrate as well."
"Where did you get the sex permit?" Ding Guo asked.
"Sister, you forgot, you gave it to me!"
Ding Guo was furious: "I told you not to just eat steamed bread and pickled vegetables when you eat at the factory, but to have some meat and vegetables."
He bought this portion of braised pork, and it was obvious that he didn't use the meat coupons he was given at the factory.
"Sister, steamed bread and pickled vegetables are also good food, and I've been eating too well recently, and my face has gained weight."
Ding Guo rolled his eyes at him, but felt quite relieved.
Giving him the meat coupons was her token of appreciation; using the meat coupons to buy braised pork to celebrate her joining the food factory was also Ding Dayong’s token of appreciation.
It has to be said that this kind of mutual care can last long.
Anyway, the meat is not rotten in someone else's pot, so she will not discourage Ding Dayong's enthusiasm.
The brother and sister had a delicious meal, and after breakfast the next day, they walked out together.
From today on, Ding Guo is also a worker of this era.
Although Ding Dayong is a temporary worker, as long as he works hard, he will always find an opportunity to become a regular employee.
Even if she can't find an opportunity, she will be able to take Ding Dayong and take off in the tide of the times in a few years.
When they arrived at the factory, Ding Guo and four other apprentices received work clothes and work hats. After changing their clothes, they were taken to the production workshop.
The five people were assigned to different production lines.
Dingo is a bread group.
The leader of the bread group was Chen Xiufang. When she was called to recruit apprentices, she took a liking to Ding Guo at first sight.
The tall and thin Ding Guo stands out among the group.
Chen Xiufang felt that this girl gave her a very capable impression. Although she was a little thin, she had bright eyes and looked smart. The director happened to assign her to their team, so Chen Xiufang hurriedly took Ding Guo away.
On the way, she was introduced to the rules and regulations of the workshop and the requirements for personal hygiene.
As she spoke, she glanced at Ding Guo, her eyes resting on the back of her ears, the back of her neck, and the nails of her hands. She nodded secretly. This girl had good personal hygiene. Her nails were trimmed very short and neatly. The gaps between her nails were clean, which was completely in line with the regulations. She smiled and said, "Not bad, just follow this standard in the future!"
Ding Guo responded quickly.
After entering the workshop, Chen Xiufang took her to familiarize herself with the production process, and finally took Ding Guo to a female worker in her early thirties and asked Ding Guo to follow her to learn and do odd jobs.
The female worker who was in charge of Ding Guo was called Zhang Xing'er. She had a round face and was very amiable. She patiently explained to Ding Guo the techniques of kneading dough.
The bread produced by their group is not just one type. Different types of bread have different recipes and materials, and the methods of kneading and fermenting are also somewhat different. Today they are making red bean paste bread, and the production line next to them is making the old-fashioned bread of later generations.
The whole workshop is filled with the sweet aroma of bread.
Ding Guo's soul doesn't like to cook, but she has a body that has ignited her talent for cooking. The original owner's nimble hands and feet from the muscle memory were a great help to Ding Guo, so she not only got the hang of it quickly, but also received praise from Zhang Xing'er.
At the end of the day, I felt pretty good.
Moreover, the working hours on the first day were also coincidental. After a day's work, the next day was the weekend, so Ding Guo took Ding Dayong to the transportation company for a day off.
The assessment at the transportation company is different from that at the garment factory and food factory. There is no cultural examination. You just fill out the application form and take it to the interview nearby.
Although there were many applicants, the process was very fast. Ding Dayong completed the interviews before ten o'clock, and the results came out a week later.
"How do you feel? Are you sure?"
Ding Dayong shook his head: "I can't tell."
The people in charge of recruitment looked him up and down. One of them looked at the application form and asked, "You are from Huiyang. How come you came to Fengning to find a job?"
After all, the distance is too far and it takes two or three days by train.
Ding Dayong obediently followed his sister's instructions and said that he was visiting relatives and happened to know that the transportation company was recruiting, so he stayed to try his luck.
Another dark-skinned man in his early forties asked about his height, whether he had ever worked in the countryside, and how many work points he could earn in a day.
After he finished answering, the man lowered his head and made a mark on his registration form, telling him to come and see the results in a week, and that was it.
"I can't see anything anymore." Ding Dayong scratched his head and said, "Let it be!"
At least I have a job to back me up.
Ding Guo also nodded. Since they had no connections, they could only take their chances.
But she could see that Ding Dayong really wanted to join this unit.
When she entered the door in the morning, she saw a large truck parked in the open space next to her. She could see from the corner of her eye that Ding Dayong's eyes lit up instantly.
There seemed to be something wrong with a large truck, and several people were repairing it there. Ding Dayong kept craning his neck to look, and even after walking a long way away, he kept looking back, very interested, with a passion in his eyes as if he had found his direction.
If you have a hobby, you will have a goal, and if you have a goal, you will have pursuit. Ding Guo also felt that if Ding Dayong could really come in, he would not need anyone to urge him, he would be able to use his brain to find ways to get ahead, and maybe he could really learn some skills.
After spending the past few days together, she discovered that Ding Dayong was not the reckless man described in the original book. On the contrary, this child was thoughtful, hardworking, and smart. If he was properly guided and trained, he might achieve something in the future.
Let’s see first. If I can’t get into the transportation company this time, I’ll pay more attention to the recruitment information here in the future to see if I can find a chance to send Ding Dayong in.
Ding Guo couldn't help but sigh as he thought about it.
Before she found her life direction, Ding Dayong found it first.
The brother and sister returned home and had lunch. Ding Guo went back to the room, closed the door, and slipped into the space to take a nap.
After waking up, she didn't hear any noise in the yard. She thought Ding Dayong was also taking a nap, so she didn't pay attention to it and took out the book she had bought before and read it for a while.
But when it was past four in the afternoon and there was still no movement in Ding Dayong's room, Ding Guo became a little puzzled.
"Did this child not sleep all night last night?"
Worried that he slept too much during the day and wouldn't be able to sleep at night, she wanted to go over and knock on the window to wake him up, but there was a noise at the gate of the courtyard, and Ding Dayong pushed the door open and walked in, sweating profusely, looking a little dejected.
Seeing Ding Guo standing in the yard, he called her "sister" somewhat embarrassedly.
Ding Guo asked in surprise: "Where have you been?"
Ding Dayong: "I went to the scrap collection station."
Ding Guo: "What do you want to buy?"
Ding Dayong scratched his head, his face slightly red, and whispered: "I want to buy a book."
He was well-known in his hometown for his poor academic performance. He suddenly said he wanted to read a book for the first time. If his parents heard it, they would laugh to death.
Ding Dayong thought his sister would laugh at him, but he didn't expect that not only did his sister not laugh, she also immediately guessed his purpose.
"Books on auto repair?"
Ding Dayong's eyes widened: "Sister, how did you know?"
Ding Guo rolled his eyes: "Your neck is almost twisted off today, how can I not see it."
Ding Dayong hung his head in embarrassment: "But I searched through the waste pile for several hours and couldn't find any books on this subject."
"Go to Xinhua Bookstore when you have time."
"No, no, no, sister, buy the old one first. I need to try to see if I can understand it..."
If he can understand it, then buy a new one. If he can't even recognize all the words on the book with his cultural level and can't understand what it's talking about, wouldn't it be a waste to buy a new book?
He saw someone repairing a car there today and suddenly became interested.
It's strange to say, he had never been exposed to these things before, and today was the first time he had entered a transportation company since he grew up. Looking at the big trucks and the workers who were standing there repairing the trucks with tools in their hands, it seemed as if the world before his eyes was brightened and filled with enthusiasm.
Ding Guo smiled and said, "You don't have to refuse so bluntly. Just go to Xinhua Bookstore and have a look. You may not be able to buy it."
There was a shortage of supplies these days, including books.
Ding Dayong thought about it and decided to go and take a look when he had time.
The next day was a new week, and the brother and sister went out to work together.
Ding Guo continued to study with Zhang Xing'er.
Once you are familiar with the process, you can change positions and learn the next process. Go through all the processes and finally be assigned a fixed position.
The brother and sister would leave together every morning and return at about the same time in the afternoon.
On Thursday, Yue Hongmei and her colleagues came to the garment factory to order autumn work clothes.
Because Xiao Hong works in this unit, she felt something was a little awkward when she came here this time.
Fortunately, the department they went to was not on the same floor as Xiao Hong's department, so she did not run into Xiao Hong. But when she was about to leave after finishing her work, she saw another somewhat familiar face.
