"Boss Gu, the pants I bought from you last time were the wrong size."
Gu Chun quickly took it and looked at it. She knew this old customer. She always wore size L, but the one she had was size XL.
"Sorry, Sister Li, we made a mistake. I'll change it for you now."
"It's okay. When I tried it on, I thought the L size was just right. I asked Meili to get me an unopened one, but I guess she got the wrong one.
I didn’t even look at it until I took it out and tried it on today, and then I realized it was too long.”
Gu Chun changed her shoes and gave her a pair of stockings.
"Sister Li, I'm so sorry. You're a regular customer. It's all our fault. I'll give you a pair of stockings as an apology."
Sister Li originally thought that since she often came to this store to buy clothes, she shouldn't have gotten the wrong size. She thought that the store's business was good and they didn't care about customers like them anymore.
But seeing that Gu Chun was so nice and even gave her stockings, she knew that this was just a momentary mistake.
Thinking of Yu Meili's behavior that day, Sister Li said, "Boss Gu, I felt that Meili was a little absent-minded when I was buying clothes that day.
I guess she's worried about something and it's affecting her work. If you have time, please pay more attention to her."
Gu Chun quickly said, "Okay, I'll ask Meili about the situation. Sister Li, thank you for reminding me. Come back and have a look next time there are new styles. I'll save the best one for you."
"Oh, okay, I'll come next time. I'm leaving now."
"Sister Li, take care."
After seeing off the last customer, Gu Chun sat in the store. On the table was an employee work evaluation form.
Yu Meili was late several times this month and made mistakes at work. Even her regular customers could see that she was absent-minded.
The model of their store is that customers and salespeople get along like friends, so old customers like Sister Li are very familiar with the salespeople.
Yu Meili made a mistake in her work, which directly affected the old customers' impression of their store.
There were originally several ? after her name, but now Gu Chun drew an X after it.
And behind Bai Yueyue and Song Yalin, there were?
The next day, Gu Chun found Yu Meili and went to the back of the store to chat.
"Meili, Sister Li came over yesterday and said you got her the wrong size pants. You gave her an XL."
Yu Meili felt a little embarrassed, "Sister Chun, I might have seen it wrong, I'm so sorry.
But it's only one size bigger, so the difference isn't that big, right?"
When Gu Chun heard her say sorry, he thought it was understandable that she had misunderstood.
When I heard the latter part, I immediately felt disgusted, "Meili, what did I say during the training?
Even a difference of one size or a few centimeters in length can affect the style of the entire garment.
Besides, these are a pair of pants. Sister Li's figure needs to be modified to lengthen her legs. You gave her a pair of pants that are too long and said the difference is not that big?"
Yu Meili lowered her head and said, "Sister Chun, I'm sorry. I was wrong."
Gu Chun frowned and looked at her. "Meili, tell me the truth, why have you been so absent-minded at work lately and made such a mistake?"
"Sister Chun, I..." She seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Gu Chun stared at her and said dissatisfiedly, "Comrade Yu Meili, please correct your attitude. We are at work now. Don't let your personal affairs affect our work!"
Yu Meili slammed the table and said, "Alright, I'm telling you, I'm quitting. I'm done with your job.
I just made a small mistake and you're picking on me. Isn't that too mean?
Do you think you're so great just because you're paid that little? You're just a self-employed person, and sooner or later you'll be arrested by the "Daban" (the office that cracks down on speculation and profiteering).
Because she was so excited, she spoke very loudly. Bai Yueyue in front heard it and ran over quickly, and heard what she said.
Bai Yueyue disagreed, "Meili, what are you talking about? How can you talk to Sister Chun like that?"
Yu Meili said excitedly: "You are just flattering her. Didn't you see how she treated me? She just gave me the wrong size and you are criticizing me. I am not her slave!"
"Meili, shut up! How can you say such things?"
The movement has only ended a few years ago, and this kind of talk is still taboo. It is too much to put such a label on people for no reason.
Yu Meili said that in anger, but now she realized that what she said was inappropriate, so she kept quiet.
Gu Chun's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "In fact, the reason I came to you is not just because you gave me the wrong size, but even Sister Li noticed that you have been a little absent-minded recently.
I have always emphasized that you must be enthusiastic towards customers. This is part of your job.
But you think I'm being mean to you?
To be honest, I am indeed a self-employed person, and I don’t think there is anything to be proud of.
The relationship between us is that I hire you to help me sell clothes. If you feel you don't like this job, you can resign from me one month in advance.
Instead of treating customers with such a work attitude here.
If my store suffers losses because of you, I can ask you for compensation."
These words undoubtedly gave her no face at all. Gu Chun had always treated them as a normal boss and employee relationship.
They won't be overly caring, nor will they be deliberately mean or withhold wages.
She thought Gu Chun was mean, but that was just her own narrow-mindedness. She didn't know how to reflect on her own mistakes and just wanted to brush them off.
If she wanted to leave, Gu Chun would not stop her. But if she worked in such a casual manner and made customers dissatisfied with Gu Chun's store, that would not do.
Yu Meili's face was grim, but she was also afraid that she would really pursue the loss, so she said stiffly: "Then I resign."
Gu Chun nodded decisively and said, "Okay, I'll pay you your salary now. You can wait in the store for a while and leave after you get the money."
She didn't try to persuade her to stay. Yu Meili felt very embarrassed and even more angry. Her face turned red and white.
Gu Chuncai didn't care what she thought. If she wanted to leave, she could leave. The store was about to close for vacation, so she still had time to hire another employee.
Gu Chun gave her the money, not a penny less, salary plus commission, and asked Yu Meili to sign the pay slip and resignation letter, and then she could leave.
When she walked out of the clothing store, Yu Meili felt a panic in her heart. She felt as if she had been too impulsive just now.
I could have worked for a few more months and gotten married next year.
Now I just leave like this, it seems like I have lost a lot.
But then she thought that her fiancé worked in a government agency, which was much better than being a self-employed person, and she became happy again.
Just wait and see, when she becomes an official’s wife in the future, Gu Chun might have to beg her for help.
Bai Yueyue watched Yu Meili walk away without looking back and sighed. It was only today that she saw this person clearly.
Just because they found a so-called good husband, they gave up their jobs and looked down on their boss who treated them so well, saying such harsh words.
Bai Yueyue felt that she had really misjudged him before.
Only then did Gu Chun understand why Yu Meili suddenly wanted to leave so resolutely.
