mortal train conductor

Chapter 19

"Wang Mengmeng, how many passengers have you helped this class? Have you completed the task of helping 10 passengers?" Liu Qun asked.

As soon as Liu Qun asked this question, Wang Mengmeng suddenly became excited: "It's done. Counting the help of passengers changing carriages, carrying luggage, etc. just now, I have helped more than 10 people." After a pause, he continued: "Help The feeling of others is really good. It turns out that there is a saying that "helping others is helping yourself". By helping others, I have gained the affirmation of others, and I feel much better, as if I have infinite power."

"Okay, that's what I mean. On the one hand, you affirm yourself and make yourself confident by completing tasks that you thought you couldn't accomplish at the beginning; on the other hand, the sense of affirmation and your own joy after helping others is also full Precious and timeless. When you think about it now, do you have a new understanding of your railway passenger work? My job is not so simple and repetitive, just cleaning, right?"

"Yes, by staring at this class, I feel that the work is not as simple as I imagined at the beginning. It is just as simple as cleaning. The conductor is like a 'generalist'. The more things he knows, the easier it is to do a good job. On the contrary, If you only know how to clean, then you are not a qualified conductor."

"It seems that you have a lot of new ideas, you go to rest, this half-way, you think about a question: what do you mean by success? That is to say, think clearly about the definition of success in your heart. Get off to the apartment tomorrow, I'll share a room with you, let's have a good chat!"

Wang Mengmeng was lying on the bunk of the camping car, and today's scenes kept appearing in his mind. Scene after scene, like a movie, he thought of his parents, the two aging figures:

From the time I was born, I started to plan for my own future. From the beginning of kindergarten, I chose the best and most expensive kindergarten in the city. My parents said: "Education should start from an early age, and quality education should begin in kindergartens." For convenience To pick me up and drop off, my parents bought a house early in the community next to the kindergarten. In order to pick up the children early every day, my mother asked for leave every afternoon, and was the first to pick me up at the door of the kindergarten classroom...

When it was time to go to elementary school, my parents bought a commercial house early near the best elementary school in the city, and got my name into the school district early. It was logical that I went to the best elementary school in the city. When I was in elementary school, my father My mother is very active and has become a member of the parent committee, and my father is also the director of the parent committee. Whenever there is something in the school or what kind of work, my parents are very happy, and it’s not all because I can not be wronged at school. , was valued by the teacher. When they were in the second and third grades of elementary school, my father and mother began to plan where to go to their junior high school, because there is no particularly good junior high school in the place where they live in elementary school. I bought a house near my junior high school, and I went to the best junior high school in the city without any effort...

In high school, I can no longer enroll according to the school district, but according to the test scores. My test scores are only enough to get into the vocational high school. Going to a vocational high school naturally, but it took a lot of effort, and tens of thousands of dollars a year allowed me to go to the best private high school in the city...

But during the college entrance examination, I still lost my name. At this time, my parents still did not give up, let me use my strengths, practiced running for a few days, and enrolled in a three-year school according to my sports strengths. Only my parents know the hard work. Now, I went to college, but I was afraid that I would not be able to adapt to the food and accommodation of college life. My mother asked for leave and rented a house near the school. My mother moved three times", now I find that my parents have moved more than three times for me, but my university academic performance is not satisfactory. A score higher than one point was admitted to graduate school...

Looking back on all this, Wang Mengmeng felt that his parents had paid too much for him, and he, who had always been pampered and heartless, couldn't help crying.

As soon as he graduated from graduate school, he failed in the national and provincial civil service recruitment examinations, and the difference in scores was not small...

Mom and Dad still encourage themselves to make persistent efforts and continue next year.Moreover, I also provided myself with the recruitment brochure of the railway system. According to my own conditions, because my major was not suitable, I could only come to the passenger section and work as a worker. I was very unwilling at the time, but my parents did not complain For myself, I still cheer myself up, telling myself to work here first, at least it is more than enough, more than enough, and I can live with food and clothing, and I have a formal job.

My father even advised me not to give up my dream. I should study hard after work. If conditions permit, I have to take part in the civil service recruitment examination every year. According to my father's idea, first have a stable job, and then have an economy. With the backing, I can review in my spare time. If I am admitted to the civil service, I can resign from the railway job.If you don't pass the exam, then continue to work on the railway...

In my life of more than 20 years, my parents have really planned for me very well, and they are very in place, but I am not very up-to-date and immature. Think about when I was in the warehouse just now, if Liu Qun hadn’t kept me , then I went back to submit my resignation report on impulse. Of course, my parents will continue to support me when they are sad, but am I a little bit too much?My parents are so kind to me, and they respond to all kinds of demands on me, no matter whether they are reasonable or not, and they are obedient and obedient, but what have I done for them?

Thinking of the begging and pleading of his parents when they mobilized him to participate in the railway job recruitment, Wang Mengmeng's heart felt like a knife was twisted.Parents are really the best parents in the world, what can I repay them?My parents hope that I can have a stable job and be safe and sound, but I only want to be prosperous and vigorous.

I still remember the three blessings my father gave me on my 12th birthday:

I don't ask you to be vigorous, but I only wish you to be safe;
I don't ask you to make contributions, but I only wish you health and happiness;
I don't ask you to be a hero, but I only hope you live up to your youth.

Dad memorized these three sentences fluently.Wang Mengmeng said in his heart: Mom and Dad, my son is sorry for you and has failed your expectations. I am so overjoyed and ambitious. Compared with your down-to-earth and planning everything in advance, it is far, far behind. Hey, my son is not filial!

Thinking about it, Wang Mengmeng fell asleep in a daze.

In the dream: He shook his arm at Liu Qun and shouted loudly: "I quit!" He jumped off the train, resolutely submitted his resignation application, and frantically recited the relevant materials of the civil service examination at home, just like that. For a few months, my aggressiveness was slowly worn away by time, and gradually I started to watch some small videos, movies, and TV series, and my life became more and more decadent. It is conceivable that taking the civil service examination The gap is still very large... Wang Mengmeng was startled, and suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that it was Nankey Yimeng. At this time, Wang Mengmeng's sweat had already wet the pillow towel...

After tossing and turning for an unknown amount of time, Wang Mengmeng fell asleep again. This time, what appeared in the dream was completely opposite to what happened before:

He actively and conscientiously participated in various tasks in the passenger railway section, and his work was well received by leaders at all levels. He truly regarded the train as a platform to demonstrate his ability and became a service star.At the same time, he continued to recharge his batteries, and did not stop studying because of his busy work. He memorized the memorization of the civil service examination books.

In the first half of that year, he passed the train conductor recruitment examination and successfully became a glorious train conductor. From then on, there was a thin golden strip in the red cap hoop on his hat, and an extra white epaulet border on his epaulettes. A thin golden stripe, the train conductor's "triangle card" (armband) hung on his left arm, and he walked heroically in the carriage and on the platform... Coincidentally, in August of this year, he When he took the civil service exam, he passed it by accident, and became a quasi-national civil servant. Fortunately, he almost became the state of Fan Jinzhong after he was promoted.

Along with the great joy, troubles followed one after another: his parents let him stay on the railway as a train conductor, but his girlfriend insisted on letting him quit the train conductor to become a civil servant. He was so distressed that he didn't know what to do. Choose... And at this moment, someone gently pushed his shoulder: "Xiao Wang, it's time for Xiao Wang, it's time to get up and watch the shift."

Wang Mengmeng sat up and shook his dizzy head. The dream just now was still vivid in his mind. He was really thinking about it every day and dreaming at night. The dream was so real, as if he had experienced it himself. .

In the dream, I became the conductor of the train?Could it be that in my subconscious mind I also thought about becoming a train conductor?Don't think about it, it's impossible, this is a question that I haven't thought about before, and suddenly Liu Qun's appearance appeared in my mind, um, he seems quite handsome.Although this road uniform is not as handsome and compelling as a military uniform, it also has the same level of military rank on the hat and epaulets: the conductor is a bare board, the conductor is a bar, the captain is two bars, and the section leader is a bar. Three stripes.

Human thinking is like this. If you have thoughts and you suppress them, you will involuntarily think more and more, and your images will become clearer and clearer.The idea of ​​becoming the conductor of the train came to his mind from time to time, and from time to time he imagined how cool it would be to hang a striped road uniform, and when he was leaving the queue, he would shout like an officer, with loud slogans and orders and prohibitions...
