Chapter 110 Recruiting
These people came here after seeing the job announcement.
Even if you haven't read it, you must know the contents of the revelation.
The residential jurisdictions of the recruited personnel specifically listed above are of course very clear.
But no matter how clear it is, who can't have a little hope?
There are very few job opportunities for educated youth and unemployed young people now. Occasionally there are one or two, but they are basically completed privately.
Most people wish they hadn't even received the news yet, as they've already been recruited.
It has been many years since we have seen a tea stall that is so open and transparent, directly posting a recruitment notice and hiring fifteen people at once!
What's more, the requirements listed in the job notice are not high. Anyone who looks neat and is not too introverted will want to give it a try.
As for the most troublesome requirement of the jurisdiction of residence, it was simply ignored by everyone.
Everyone had come early to wait with the mentality that the law does not punish the masses, hoping that when Shi Xiaoai and the others arrived, someone would be able to register first.
As long as you register and pass the interview, if you are eliminated just because of jurisdiction issues, you can have a good discussion with them.
Begging or making a fuss, there are always more possibilities and more hope.
But who would have thought that Director Yu would come over, take out the roster, and yell, completely shattering everyone's hopes.
How can this be tolerated?
So, some people quit at that time.
Someone yelled directly at Director Yu, "Why are only people from Yunhe Street allowed to sign up? Why? Aren't we all human? We all meet the recruitment requirements? Why do we have to categorize people into different levels when hiring workers?"
"That's right! The unemployed young people in Yunhe Street are human beings, but we are not? Besides, there aren't that many of you unemployed young people, right? Are you openly trying to make us special?
We can't let you take all the good things! Let's compete fairly, whoever is elected gets it, and we firmly resist discrimination!
"Yeah, what era is it now? You still want to run a family? If we have to take the exam, let's take it together. It depends on our ability!"
"Director Yu, my son has been staying home for three years. Please be kind and give us a chance! He's already 30 years old and still can't find a wife. If he doesn't have a job, our family will be cut off!"
"My daughter has been at home for more than two years. If I leave one day, how will she live on her own?"
…
The more people spoke, the louder their voices became, and the more emotional they became. The atmosphere became very tense, with a lot of buzzing and humming.
Everyone present was furious, trying to squeeze forward and shouting that they wanted to come over and "reason" with Director Yu.
Director Yu was also frightened by such momentum.
She couldn't understand why things turned out like this?
Their main purpose in helping Xiao Ai set up this tea stall was to provide employment for unemployed young people on the street.
We have finally managed to get it up and running, and now we have to recruit workers. Instead of making arrangements for the educated youth and unemployed young people in our own street first, should we consider others first?
Isn't this as it should be?
Why do they act like they have done something really wrong to everyone?
Even aroused public anger?
Director Yu’s mind was almost spinning, and she subconsciously took two steps back.
Aunt Liu and Aunt Liang also became nervous. They opened their arms and tried their best to stop the onlookers from approaching.
"Xiao Ai, say something!" Aunt Liang shouted anxiously.
Shi Xiaoai didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Only then did she realize that she still knew too little about the current social situation.
A lot of times we take it a little too much for granted.
No matter what, today's situation has nothing to do with her.
At this time, Director Yu and the office staff were indeed taking the blame for her.
Shi Xiaoai naturally couldn't let such things continue to develop, otherwise it would be difficult to resolve if it got out of hand in the end.
She quickly stood on the highest step at the gate and shouted to the crowd, "Quiet, everyone, be quiet!"
Those who came to wait at the door today were all here to take the exam, and no one had the intention of causing trouble.
They also knew that when it came to recruiting, Shi Xiaoai was the one who could really make the final decision.
Seeing that she was about to speak, the crowd slowly quieted down.
Seeing that everyone had stopped pushing forward, Shi Xiaoai said, "Our recruitment notice clearly states that the recruitment area is indeed within the jurisdiction of Yunhe Street, so what Director Yu said is correct."
The voice below boomed again.
Shi Xiaoai pressed down with her hand and continued, "I know that besides the residents of our jurisdiction, the others who came today are all nearby neighbors. We all know each other every day.
I understand everyone's thoughts and the difficulties involved. After all, I was a returned urban youth myself. I've experienced the hardships you've all been through."
After Shi Xiaoai said this, there was a moment of silence in the audience, and many people's expressions became gloomy.
In fact, most people have begun to feel disappointed at this point, and they feel that the show is not that great.
Shi Xiaoai has said this, so it is certain that they will only recruit people from the area under the jurisdiction of the Yunhe Office.
Some people lowered their heads, while others quietly wiped away their tears.
Of course, some people are unwilling to accept this.
A woman asked loudly from below: "Since you know how hard we've been working, why don't you give us a chance?"
Shi Xiaoai followed the voice and saw a woman who was probably around thirty years old.
She was very thin, her skin was very yellow, and the clothes she wore were a bit old.
But even though it was old, the clothes were washed clean and you could still see traces of ironing.
It can be seen that she attaches great importance to this recruitment and must have put on her best clothes.
With such people taking the lead, others will naturally follow.
"Xiao Shi, please give us a chance! Even if you recruit ten people in your Yunhe Lane, just give us five spots!"
"I live on Qingyun Street, right at the back door of your yard. Even though I'm not from Yunhe Street, I'm closer to you than many of them! I can come whenever you call. Just shout whenever you want to come to work!"
"Me too, I live in the hospital's family compound, just across the street!"
"I'm strong and can do heavy work!"
"I can make pancakes and stone buns!"
…
Seeing the noise coming again, Shi Xiaoai could only maintain order again.
She waved to Wang Xiaofeng who was standing beside her, and Xiaofeng hurried over.
Shi Xiaoai took the stack of recruitment forms in her hand. These forms were engraved and mimeographed on the spot when she went to the office yesterday.
At this moment, she was only glad that she had printed a lot of copies, more than two hundred copies.
When she was printing yesterday, those aunts laughed at her, saying that she was just messing around with nothing to do. She printed so many and had no place to put them, and made everything dirty.
Shi Xiaoai thought that since it was a rare opportunity to print, she might as well print more for future use.
Who would have thought that it would be used now?
She held up the recruitment forms for everyone to see, then said, "The notice states that we need to recruit fifteen people within the jurisdiction. This has already been reported to our superiors and approved, and it cannot be changed.
But I understand everyone's difficulties, and I am willing to do my best to provide more jobs for everyone.
So, I'll take the initiative and recruit five more people this time. These five people will be recruited from the educated youth who returned to the city from other areas."
She waved the recruitment form and emphasized again, "They are returned urban youth. These five people are only recruited from returned urban youth."
Seeing that someone else wanted to speak, she frowned and said, "Don't argue with me anymore. I will take the responsibility for increasing the recruitment quota without authorization!
Why do you not understand why I do this?
As for why only educated youth are accepted? Because I am a returned urban educated youth, so I am willing to give them another chance.
As soon as Shi Xiaoai said this, the people below became restless again.
But this time, most people were grateful.
After all, they believed what Shi Xiaoai said.
There are so few recruitment targets now, and we are hiring five more people at once. It would be a lie to say that Shi Xiaoai did not take responsibility.
Not everyone dares to make such a promise lightly.
What good will Shi Xiaoai get if she does this?
The more people thought about it, the more they felt that she would not end up well.
It is very likely that she did this just as she said, to give the educated youth a chance.
After realizing this, everyone looked at Xiao Ai with deep gratitude in their eyes.
So, she didn't need to say anything else, and someone immediately started to maintain order for her.
Those who meet the requirements are more active than anyone else at this moment. They push each other and quickly eliminate those who do not meet the requirements.
Most of the people who came today were educated youth, and everyone knew that opportunities were not easy to come by.
Even if those who were eliminated first still wanted to fight for it, they were suppressed by these people.
In a short while, only one-third of the people left were left.
Seeing this situation, Shi Xiaoai finally smiled.
She raised her voice and shouted to the people standing at the farthest corner, their expressions filled with dissatisfaction, "There will definitely be more job openings like this in the future, and we'll continue to post them. Everyone, please pay attention; there are still opportunities."
After saying that, she gave half of the recruitment form to Wang Xiaofeng, and then gestured for her to open the door.
Then he called out to the people still gathered around: "Those who want to register, please line up in two lines at the door. One line is for those who meet the requirements within the jurisdiction, and the other line is for those who meet the requirements outside the jurisdiction. Line up, don't crowd. Also, the registration form must be filled out in person. Family members, please disperse first, don't crowd here."
When Shi Xiaoai said these words, the three people from the office all stood beside her.
They all had stern faces and looked very serious, but in fact they were all worried about Shi Xiaoai.
I was afraid that she would provoke these people.
Although the city is now strictly controlling and there are not many people causing trouble in society, everyone knows clearly that many people are angry.
I can't suppress it anymore.
In this situation, who would be willing to light the fuse?
If something goes wrong, most people really can't afford the consequences.
Looking at this noisy group of people, Director Yu regretted so much that his stomach ached and felt that he should not have written that job notice.
If they had known this would happen, they would have worked harder and notified every household one by one!
We originally thought that since we were going to run a pilot project, we would do it in a grand manner and make everything open and transparent. Who could have known that it would end up like this?
However, seeing how Xiao Ai easily turned a disaster that was about to break out into nothingness, Director Yu was very satisfied. He felt that this could be used as an experience to introduce when reporting to the district.
Of course, Xiao Ai will have to write it when the time comes.
Shi Xiaoai didn't have time to wonder what Director Yu was thinking at the moment, as people had already lined up at the door.
The line split into two, one side lined up outside the alley, and the other side was almost lined up to her doorstep!
At this time, Cheng Lin and Kaikai had finished their work at the stall. They sent Mingxi and Mingrui back home and all came over to help.
The table left by Yang Hui also came in handy.
Aunt Liu and Aunt Liang ran back to the office and brought a pair of pencils. Shi Xiaoai and Wang Xiaofeng sat behind the table, one on each side, watching the educated youth who came to register fill out the registration forms on the spot.
At first, Wang Xiaofeng didn’t quite understand why Sister Xiao Ai had to watch these people fill out the forms in person?
If we do as she suggests, wouldn't it be much faster to find the pencils and ask them to fill them out in advance before sending them over?
But after reading several copies, she understood the reason.
Only then did Wang Xiaofeng realize that many of the people who came to register didn’t even know how to fill out the form!
At this time, there are actually very few pure illiterates in big cities like Yuncheng, especially among young people.
However, as a generation that was delayed, it is possible that the older educated youth may not have touched a pen for many years.
They didn't go to school well during the movement, and they had been in the countryside for so many years. Not only did they forget how to read when they picked up a pen, some of them could hardly fill in anything other than their own names.
These people are naturally the first to be eliminated.
Of course, those who were eliminated were unwilling to accept this, and some of them started crying again.
Shi Xiaoai patted their application forms and said calmly, "The first batch I'm recruiting are waiters. They're supposed to take orders for customers, so they don't have to be able to write.
But I will also recruit dishwashers, vegetable washers and cleaners later on, and there is no educational requirement for these positions.
Since you have already filled out the application form today, when I recruit people later, I will definitely select the best candidates from among those who registered today.
But if anyone thinks they can force me to make a decision by crying, then I'm sorry, I will remember your name and will never hire you again under any circumstances."
As soon as these words were spoken, the order at the scene became better than ever before, and those who had hoped to get away with something put their little thoughts aside.
Because the business had to continue in the evening, Xiao Ai forcibly ended today's registration activity at 5:30 and agreed with the people who came later to continue at the same time tomorrow.
Leaving Cheng Lin to finish up in the yard, she and Wang Xiaofeng went out.
When Xiao Ai went out, he was shocked.
She found that the number of people queuing at the gate of the hospital was no less than when they came in the afternoon!
Shi Xiaoai stopped and stood there in a daze without saying a word.
Wang Xiaofeng also looked at her with a worried look on her face and asked, "Sister, how are we going to end up like this?"
