Chapter 153: Welcome to buy
Chapter 153 Welcome to buy
"We will be shunted out. If we are lucky, there will be vacancies in the same system and we will fill them. If there are none, then we may change the job type or even be demoted to fill them. As an apprentice, I may become a temporary worker," An Zhiqiu sighed, "It seems like dawdling sometimes doesn't work."
An Zhixia nodded with the same feeling, talked with her brother, and added more questions about state-owned hotels in her notebook.
The chef's cooking skills are average, the hygiene is not up to standard, the ingredients are incomplete and stale, and the employees have a bad attitude, have a bad temper, and want to make some profit, they will deduct the amount of food provided to the diners, thus falling into a complicated and difficult dilemma. Dilemma.
When Moji arrived at work, An Zhiqiu still sent the girl to the door at such a close distance and gave her a few words of advice.
Mao Xiaohuan held her chin in envy, her face flushed with a hint of red, "I'm so envious of you for having such a handsome and caring brother. Oh, what a pity. It would be so much better if he was not your brother but your partner. Your love story will definitely be better than on TV. The acting inside is even more beautiful and sweet!”
"TV is all about deceiving people. They only show what you like to watch. Don't the heroes and heroines not eat, sleep, go to work, or go to the bathroom? These days of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are no different from ours. They just extract our happiest moments." Out.
Besides, why do TV shows show the hero and heroine ending up together after going through hardships? Because after getting married, the two people's character is completely exposed in front of each other, grinding their teeth, burping and farting, what's the beauty in it? Three years of itching, seven years of pain, and ten years of numbness are coming one after another. Maybe they are not as comfortable as us ordinary people.
You know, the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment! "
After An Zhixia said it, not to mention Mao Xiaohuan, even the elder sisters who liked to go to the neighbors' houses to watch TV all started wailing.
"How old are you, girl? Just like my mother, can't you let me have a better yearning for life?" Mao Xiaohuan pursed her lips.
"It's over, it's over. All that's left in my mind now is what Zhi Xia said about the hero and heroine going to the toilet, grinding teeth and burping," an older sister said, slapping her head and yelling, "I'll watch TV at night, and the custodian will laugh out loud... "
Everyone is in confusion, but when I think about An Zhixia's words, they are particularly correct. Even rich people will have all kinds of trivial things. After two people have been together for a long time, love turns into family affection, how can the taste be the same?
"Okay, okay, everyone, please be quiet," Director Huang walked in from the back door of the store and clapped his hands, "Today is February 1st, and it is the 29th day of the lunar calendar..."
Before he could finish speaking, everyone shouted happily: "Are we going to pay wages and benefits? It's the Chinese New Year, and our benefits can't be doubled?"
Director Huang nodded with a smile and pressed his hand in the air. Everyone stopped their voices and looked at him expectantly.
"Yes, the leader said that we have worked hard for a year, and we are going to pay wages and benefits today, so that everyone has one day to buy new year's goods and have a prosperous year. You take turns to collect wages and benefits, and stand at your posts for the last day and a half of this year. , and then you can take turns to celebrate the New Year!”
The big guy shouted excitedly twice again.
An Zhixia looked at them with furrowed eyebrows, thinking that it had nothing to do with her. After all, she reported on the last day of the month yesterday, but Director Huang waved to her, "Xiao An, come here, I want to tell you something."
So she followed the first three-person team to the director's office. The room that was clean and empty yesterday was already filled with many boxes and baskets, making the big guy's eyes light up.
Two warehouse managers assisted the director in distributing wages and benefits. Each person received a five-pound bag of Fuqiang powder, a one-liter bucket of vegetable oil, a box of apples, three kilograms of sausages, and five kilograms of hairtail!
An Zhixia secretly thought that although everyone’s living conditions are not rich, the benefits for office workers holding an iron rice bowl are really good.
After a few people left to call the next batch, Director Huang lowered his head and looked at the form and said, "If you are a serious apprentice, it will take three years before you will be considered for regular employment, but Xiao An, you are in a special situation, so The salary will be 22 yuan for the third year as an apprentice. However, the benefits are still the same.”
An Zhixia pointed to herself: "Me? Can I get it now? Director, I've only been working for half a day."
"Didn't you report it yesterday? That's a month," the director nodded and asked the boys to move things for An Zhixia.
Putting twenty-two yuan in her pocket and holding the newly issued benefits, she also felt the anxiety that her brother was taking advantage of. When she put the things under the counter, no one else was even curious, as if this was a normal thing and they had all experienced it before.
The business of the supply and marketing cooperative became even colder in the afternoon, but everyone sat still and discussed how to take turns during the New Year. After hearing this, An Zhixia checked the electronic library with doubts. It turned out that in the past ten years, let alone the Spring Festival, there were not even weekends. They had one day off per week. Everyone took advantage of this day to do laundry, purchase, visit relatives, and do errands. Wait, it’s almost more tiring than going to work. It’s impossible to travel by plane or high-speed rail like people in later generations.
People’s understanding of the world comes from newspapers, loudspeakers, tape recorders next door, and television sets. There is a complete country roe deer living in everyone’s heart.
“Zhi Xia, when will you rest for two days?”
"Ah, I'm free to do it. You can choose first," An Zhixia came back to her senses and said with a smile. In the end, she was given two days off on the twelfth and thirteenth day of the lunar month.
As soon as the enthusiasm for salary, benefits, and holidays passed, everyone felt sad immediately when they heard the warehouse manager Xiao Cha said that the sales staff of Zhenghao Supply and Marketing Cooperative had better benefits than them, and that the extra salary included several dollars of sales commission. It's like swallowing a lemon alive.
An Zhixia suddenly smiled and clapped her hands crisply: "Brothers and sisters, let's get busy and sell out all the goods on the counter, and then introduce new styles, and strive to be the first hit in the new year!"
Everyone smiled and continued to ask in a sour tone how much better the welfare of Zhenghao Supply and Marketing Cooperative was than theirs.
An Zhixia went directly to the counter and picked out a writing brush, soaked it in warm water, opened a box of ink, laid red paper on the newspaper, and started writing.
Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but gathered around. At the first glance, they all gasped and praised: "I didn't expect that Comrade Xiao An can write beautiful calligraphy!"
Then they all read out in a low voice: "Announcement: The Chinese New Year is around the corner. In order to give back to the new and old customers, Dongfeng Shili Supply and Marketing Cooperative has specially launched an event to give away Spring Festival couplets with purchases to celebrate the Year of the Ox! Customers who enter the store will also receive a pair of beautiful and exquisite Window decorations or New Year paintings worth ten cents! The quantity is limited, welcome to buy! ”
“Zhi Xia, our Spring Festival couplets are sold for five cents a set, and the window grilles and New Year paintings are three or four cents a pair. Even Director Huang dare not say that they are given away for free!”
