Chapter 6 The first part-time job after entering the society, courier sorting
Chapter 6 The first part-time job after entering the society, courier sorting
In the winter of 2016, in a certain city in the north.
I forget which afternoon it was, a phone ringing interrupted my thoughts of playing computer games.I reluctantly picked up the phone, it was Xiao Zhao calling.He asked me where I was at this time, I reported the name of the Internet cafe I was in, then hung up the phone in a hurry and continued to immerse myself in the online game.After a while, Xiao Zhao rushed to the seat next to me and sat down with two bottles of Coke in his hand.After I said "It's right, so I can get on the account quickly", I stopped talking, and then the two of us began to immerse ourselves in online games together.This is a scene that I am not familiar with at ordinary times.
I don’t know how long I played in the smoky Internet cafe. The not-so-circulating air and the bad smell of second-hand smoke began to make my head feel a little dizzy, but I still sat here until I almost suffocated before I was willing to leave.
After leaving the Internet cafe, it was almost late at night.Xiao Zhao and I found a noodle restaurant we often go to for dinner. The environment of the noodle restaurant is not bad, it is open 24 hours, of course, the most important thing is that it is cheap.Two bowls of the most common noodle soup plus a plate of side dishes cost only about 20 yuan, and they taste very delicious.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Zhao suddenly asked me if I knew any places where I could get part-time jobs, the ones that require daily pay.I was taken aback for a moment, and at this moment, I suddenly realized that I hadn't worked for a long time.Time can't help but, I have been decadent for so long.
In the summer of 2016, I graduated from university at the age of 22, and it was this year that I mastered a new type of snack.Relying on the absence of this snack on the market in my city, I made an important decision.Like many passionate young people, I decided to start a business and create my own brand and business!I mistakenly believed that the social practice activities I participated in in my college career and the work practice career in my senior year have accumulated enough social experience and work experience.I mistakenly think that I am the "genius" recognized by God and buried for a long time.It was this delusion that made me take great pains to persuade my family to invest some money for me, and then put together my meager savings and borrowed money to start investing in what I called "starting a business".In fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is a farce than a business.
At the beginning of entrepreneurship, you must start with opening your own small shop. The initial stage is always full of enthusiasm. You carefully inspect the project, choose the venue, and do everything by yourself. "ability".I go out early and return late every day, and I am busy until late at night, giving people the illusion of "promising young people".In fact, I was just escaping, escaping from the cruel reality. Even so, I was still willing to bump into the south wall.I know very well in my heart that the reason why I choose to start a business is because I don't want to work for others. I don't want to listen to other people's orders and be at the mercy of others in the workplace.Escape from the reality that I have grown up and stepped into society, escape from my incompatibility with society...
It was only when I started to invest that I realized that things like money were really worthless. Before I could buy anything, I had already spent a lot of money on inspections alone.Add in finding people for help, buying items, and other trivial things, and in short, money will be used everywhere whether it is what you think or you can't think of.The ins and outs add up to a total investment beyond expectations.When the investment funds for a business cannot be sufficient, the failure has actually been predicted in advance.
The final result can be imagined. Due to excessive optimism, serious lack of ability and experience, and the joint urging of many factors, this fragile business survived for less than half a year before it died without a problem.All that was left was my foreign debts and a decadent and disappointed me.It said it was half a year, but the real business time was only one or two months, and the rest of the time was completely in a state of unwillingness to support.Even in the final stage, I couldn't really have my own complete store, and everything failed completely in the semi-finished period.
I'm really stupid, if this thing can make a lot of money, will it be my turn to discover it?Besides, there are enough reasons for something not to have a market in one place, if you don’t have the ability to solve this reason, it’s better not to touch it lightly.As the saying goes, "The meal is ready, and it's my turn to eat?" It's just that my mind was already dazed at that time, and I couldn't listen to what others tried to persuade me.
My family paid off the foreign debts I owed, but the standard of living also declined accordingly.It was also from this year that I began to suffer from insomnia every night. The long-term insomnia made me a little haggard during that time.
I used to think that stepping out of the campus is equivalent to realizing true freedom, but the setbacks and failures are like a welcome ceremony for you from the society, used to tell you the complexity and difficulty of the adult world.Losing the shelter of the campus means losing the tolerance of the world and the possibility of being lenient.At this time, how much I want to go back to campus to be a student who is studying in peace and stability!
I began to choose to escape, sleeping during the day, going to the Internet cafe to play games in the afternoon, and returning home at night to continue the state of trouble and insomnia.It lasted for a while, and after being told by Xiao Zhao today, I realized that I hadn't made any money for a long time.I thought back to the period when I just graduated from high school. The part-time self with hope and motivation seemed to have been left in the past.I have not had a part-time job in my four years of college career, and I have spent all of my time playing, wasting my time, and making meaningless comparisons with others, which is a deformed state of life.In my inherent thinking at that time, it seemed that going out to do a part-time job was a shameful and sad behavior.And the sad thing is that I'm only now beginning to see all of this in my past.
I looked at Xiao Zhao who was eating noodles, and his condition was not very good.He went to a teacher training college in this city. When he first entered college, he would work as an assistant teacher or private tutor in extracurricular tutoring classes during the holidays. After graduation, he naturally became a teacher. Not the teachers in the school, but the teachers in the extracurricular tutoring classes, teaching chemistry and mathematics for junior high school students.But like me, he is also a college student who has just graduated, so the salary is not very high, and it is inevitable that he will be asked to do more work outside the scope of his work.The most important thing is that he often prepares for public school exams and teacher certification exams.
When Xiao Zhao was in college, she met a girlfriend with a wealthy family and outstanding looks and temperament. She was tall, gentle and dignified, and her conversation was graceful. She was a girl of the goddess level in everyone's mind.The diligent little Zhao Jing used his vacation and rest time as a tutor, thus earning a lot of living expenses, which invisibly provided more financial security for their dating, and also made his love more stable. Sweet, the picture of the two walking hand in hand in the campus is definitely a couple combination that makes people envious and envious of others.
At that time, our identities were only students, and the university campus was far less complicated than society, and the gap between the rich and the poor between students was also sealed by the campus, and it was not so obvious, and the thinking mode and consumption space were also not pulled. The size is very large, so Xiao Zhao has been living a very comfortable and comfortable life.
With the growth of school age and the continuous expansion of the girl's horizons, the cognition of the world view has gradually been different from that of Xiao Zhao. However, the real change is the moment when she leaves the campus and enters the society.
The beautiful things from the outside world and the richer world are coming one after another, which makes people suddenly understand that the campus is a place where the gap between the rich and the poor is relatively weakened, and the gap reflected in the living conditions of students is nothing more than the amount of pocket money and The gap between food and clothing.The collective environment and consumption environment of the campus cannot truly reflect the gap brought about by the original family.
Xiao Zhao's girlfriend's family conditions are already superior. When she discarded her student status, her vision, ability to deal with people, and the improvement of contacts and resources brought to her by the elders in the family made the overall gap between her and Xiao Zhao It is constantly expanding.And the girl didn't have the slightest intention of sharing the joys and sorrows with Xiao Zhao or using the family's network resources to help Xiao Zhao in his career, so the relationship became fragile.
Love on campus only needs to be meticulous, considerate and romantic, but in society it will gradually become material-based, and romance has begun to become less important. Love without a good economy as a support is very unreliable.
When the quality of life and material requirements become higher, Xiao Zhao's economic conditions and cognitive level are no longer sufficient to support this relationship. He wants to do some part-time jobs during the rest time, on the one hand earn a little money On the other hand, he wants to have something to do all the time to choose to temporarily forget these troubles.
I didn't speak, I know he and I both know that even so, his relationship won't change in any way, let alone get better, breaking up is only a matter of time. The words "Don't bully the young and poor" don't carry much weight in real society.
The world of adults is really full of all kinds of troubles, and these troubles will directly determine how you live in the days to come, and even determine the length of your lifespan.
I haven't done part-time jobs for a long time. I don't know if the labor service companies from four years ago are still there, and I don't know where to get information about part-time jobs and the current situation of the part-time job market.
At this moment, I thought of a person, a classmate I know who has been working part-time during the holidays, maybe he will give us these answers.
After asking, Xiao Zhao and I were drawn into a WeChat group for part-time jobs in the same city.There will be part-time job information appearing here every day, including job types, working hours, working locations, working hours, and wages.
It coincides with a shopping festival at the end of the year, and a part-time worker in a logistics warehouse who is in urgent need of sorting will need a part-time sorter every day for the next few days.The working hours are from [-]:[-] a.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., and the salary is [-] yuan, and the payment is settled after get off work.Gather at the gate of a certain university at [-]:[-], and there will be a bus to take you to the logistics warehouse where you work.Xiao Zhao and I added the wechat of the team leader who sent the message, picked a date when he was off, and signed up for this part-time job.
In the early morning of that day, Xiao Zhao and I took the bus to the meeting point.It's only six or seven stations away from where we live, but during that time I was a bit confused, I had lost the habit of getting up early, and I was not used to coming here suddenly.
We found the shuttle, and it stopped at the gate of the nearby university.Same as the previous part-time job, after filling in the name and calling the phone to sign in with the team leader, you can get on the bus and wait.The weather was very cold, so Xiao Zhao and I bought pancakes and fruits at the gate of the university and got on the bus.
There are a lot of people who come to this part-time job, about 40 people, and a bus is almost full.There are men and women. Most of the boys are college students, and there are a few girls. Most of them come with their boyfriends. They work together to make money and have romantic dinners together. It is a good way to increase feelings and sweetness. degrees of opportunity.Besides them, there were five or six middle-aged women in their 40s.They wore coats of the style that were popular about ten years ago and dusty shoes of the street stall style. Their hair was greasy. They neither made up nor washed their hair, and two of them had even mixed more than half of their hair. Gray hair.They are of low quality and speak loudly.They were chewing the tongues of their neighbors, sometimes with exaggerated expressions, and sometimes laughed.From their chats, it can be heard that some of them are married and some are not.However, they do have a common feature, that is, everyone has no job, and their biggest hobbies are fighting landlords and playing mahjong.
The cold winter made the car window covered with beautiful grilles, a small part of which was melted by the morning sun. Looking at the busy and energetic figures on the university campus outside the car window, I thought of going back to this time last year. I was preparing materials for next year's graduation in school.In just one year, I changed from a college student full of infinite possibilities to a jobless vagrant in the society, and I couldn't help feeling secretly in my heart.
In the car, a boy was wearing a mask and put warm earmuffs on his head backwards, which looked like Monkey King's "curse" in Journey to the West.He chatted endlessly about playing games and anime with the people next to him, bragging about how good he was at playing games.He also claimed that he had already participated in this part-time job last year, and the content of the job was a breeze for him.
I noticed that the clothes he was wearing were a little dirty, and he was carrying a schoolbag that could no longer tell whether it was dark blue or pure black, with several cute loli girl prints printed on it.It may be due to the long time of use, the pattern printed on it has withered and yellowed and has fallen off a lot. The things he uses are almost all the anime peripherals of the girl series. It goes without saying that he must be an otaku.
The car drove for about 10 minutes and came to the work place, which is close to the outermost ring of the city and is a relatively remote place.
This is a warehouse of an online shopping e-commerce brand with a large area.The area we are in is a well-known dried fruit brand, which is full of all the products of this brand.There are four shelves in total, and the joints of each floor have the product number and the name of the product placed.There are about four to five products on the first floor.
The team leader asked us if we would like to order boxed lunch for lunch. Each serving costs [-] yuan. You can choose to order or not. If you don’t order, you can solve the lunch problem by yourself during the lunch break.Someone asked if there was a fast food truck in the vicinity of work, and the team leader said there was.After hearing this answer, I chose to have lunch on my own. I wanted to control the choice of eating in my own hands. Xiao Zhao naturally made the same choice as me.
The staff inside and the team leader were connected for a while and asked us to line up to stand in a row. After calling our names and taking a group photo, the staff began to tell us about the work content and working methods.
There are many printed lists at the ticket printing machine in the warehouse, some of them are single-page and some are multi-page, and the multi-page will be bound.Each list represents the goods that need to be picked up for a job.After getting a leaflet, you need to choose a cart. There are many carts, all of which are parked in the area where the carts are located. You can choose the car at will, and choose whichever one is easy to push.
The model of the required packaging carton will be marked on the list, and there are various types of cartons in the place where the cartons are stored, and each model has its own area for sorting personnel to pick up.
I noticed that there are many people working in the warehouse, and their division of labor is different. Some are responsible for scanning codes, some are responsible for sorting, some are responsible for pulling and folding cartons, and some are responsible for replenishment.The treatment enjoyed by different types of jobs will certainly be different.
Since there were a lot of part-timers recruited this time, we were divided into three groups to study with three different staff members.All three are sorters in the warehouse. Every shopping festival and when orders are overflowing, they will find cooperative part-time team leaders to hire temporary workers to help.
Xiao Zhao and I followed a brother in his early thirties to learn the workflow and content.He randomly picked out a single page, which was a single page with two sheets of paper stapled together.A number is printed on the carton column on the single page, which represents the corresponding carton model, and the number printed on the quantity is the number of cartons required.
Typically smaller cartons require more quantity and larger cartons require less.Then there is the form of the product, the code of the product is printed on the front, the first character is usually a letter, representing the shelf corresponding to the letter, the second character of the code is a number, representing the area of the shelf where the product is located, 1 and 4 are the two side areas, 2 and 3 represent the middle.An area generally has three to four different commodities placed according to the size of the commodities.
The third digit of the code is also a number representing the number of layers of the shelf where the product is located. The number 1 is the bottom layer and 4 is the highest layer.
The last digit of the code is a letter, which is the code that finally locks the specific product, that is to say, the product code tells you which product in which area and which layer the product is located.
The name of the corresponding product is printed after the code, which is convenient for you to check and confirm whether the product you picked up is correct.
After the product name is the quantity to pick up the product.Finally, the product code of the product is printed for confirmation of inaccuracy.
While demonstrating, the staff skillfully shuttled through the commodity area to be sorted.Every time he sorted a product, he would use his thumb to place the corresponding product on the single page.He reminded us to do the same in the process of work so as not to get confused and pick up the wrong product.After all the products on a single page are sorted, the sorting of a cart is completed.Then push the sorted cart of goods to the assembly line in the code scanning area, and hand it over to the staff of the code scanning group to scan the code and pack it.
If you pick up a product but there is no such product on the shelf, you need to tear a crack in the place corresponding to the product on the single page, and finally sort the single page and place the single page where the missing product should be placed. in the carton.If you encounter replenishment staff, you should also give feedback in time, and they will replenish the product shelves in time.
The content of the work is not difficult, as long as you rely on your legs to find the goods to be sorted and concentrate on ensuring the correct rate of sorting.The staff reminded us not to be afraid of slowness, but try not to make mistakes, thinking that when scanning the code, it will not be scanned and re-sorting will take a long time.Also, don't listen to music during the sorting process, it will distract you.
The middle-aged women stared and yelled "this job is too hard to remember" and other complaints. Before they even did it, they began to resist, and there they complained with reluctance. The harshness of the big words makes people feel bored.
The staff asked them suspiciously, is this job difficult?They replied that they wanted to do the kind of work that does not require brain power and excessive physical strength, and a fool would do it.
As soon as this remark came out, I saw that everyone was covering their mouths and laughing at them, and some couldn't hold back their laughter.But the few of them thought that they were bargaining with the capitalists and considered themselves a hero.Xiao Zhao and I looked at each other, both of our eyes were full of boredom and helplessness towards these people, what was annoying was their own, and what was helpless was their ignorance.
One of the staff smiled and said that cleaners are still needed here, that is, the paper scraps and ropes of the newly shipped boxes of goods need to be cleaned after opening.Asked them if they would like to, they clapped their hands and said yes and agreed.So they picked up the broom and started the simple job they dreamed of, and became "fools" as they wished.
We started to get to work with single page pick carts.I tried to push a few carts, and I chose one that was easy to push and prepared to go to work.I searched unfamiliarly for each product on the single page I got, and carefully proofread the code and quantity of the product.Although a staff member took us through the process before, I was not very familiar with the whole warehouse, and it took me a long time to wait for this car to be sorted.
I glanced at Xiao Zhao, who was also sorting carefully and unfamiliarly there. The warehouse has a large area, and the goods that need to be sorted are not necessarily in which area. The chance of us meeting is still very small.When I passed the middle aisle between the two shelves, those middle-aged women were gathering there, chatting and laughing.With brooms in hand, they spoke loudly and laughed harshly.From time to time, the staff reminded them not to patronize chatting, so as not to affect the work in hand.They responded with a "gun and stick" tone, saying "No, they work very seriously."
The speed of the original sorting workers in the warehouse is much higher than that of our temporary workers. They are already quite familiar with the area where the items are placed in the warehouse, and they will basically not go wrong. The fault tolerance rate is very low. Very efficient.
On the contrary, there is a temporary worker who is different. He wears earphones and is extremely fast. Every time he meets him, he pushes the cart and walks past you quickly. It's so fast that it feels a little exaggerated, as if he is deliberately performing for us, telling us with his actions that he and I are not the same kind of people.He is the anime otaku who wears the warmer earmuffs backwards. I remembered what he said he had done this job in the previous year. Maybe this job is really just a piece of cake for him.
However, I was wrong, because soon after I heard the staff scolding him, they told him loudly that you slow down and don't act recklessly!After you sort the things and scan the QR code, you will find that they are all wrong!Be steady, stop listening to music!Don't go wrong again!
I noticed that after hearing this, many people laughed and whispered that he deserved it. Everyone treated him as a joke when he was criticized.Not because of anything else, just because he always bumped into other people or disturbed other people's work in order to show his speed at work, but he never said a word of apology.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Zhao found me and asked me if I was going to the bathroom.I have been working all the time, I seem to have forgotten my physical needs. Only after he said this did I realize that it was time for me to go to the bathroom.I said I would go after sorting the car, and he helped me sort it together.The strength of two people will always be stronger than that of a single soldier. The cart was sorted quickly, and the two of us put the cart in an open space and walked towards the exit of the warehouse.
The toilet is in an office building next to the warehouse. You need to enter and exit from the warehouse door and walk a short distance into the office building to find it.
There is a part-time team leader sitting at the door of the warehouse.There is a small table in front of him, and there is a notebook on the table, which is used to register part-time workers who go to the bathroom. There are several columns written on it, including name, mobile phone number, departure time, and return time.Fill it out one by one when you leave, and fill in the return time when you come back, and you can go back to work.I know, this is because I am afraid that someone will run away halfway.Generally, no one would run away in such a remote place. If it was closer to the urban area, it would be hard to say.
Xiao Zhao and I walked towards the office building after filling it out. In the column of departure time, we both deliberately filled in a time a few minutes later than this time.Just to take a breather and rest for a few minutes.
The sky that was still sunny in the morning is now overcast, and it is snowing lightly.It is as cold inside the warehouse as outside, but the work requires constant walking, so the body will naturally warm up and even sweat a lot.
The bathroom is on the second floor of the office building. The environment in the office building is neither good nor bad. It is a very common office environment.Xiao Zhao and I found a corridor and sat on the steps for a while. After a long period of black and white upside down, I suddenly walked so many roads, and I still felt a little tired. .
At twelve o'clock at noon, it was lunch break time. Several team leaders walked into an open space in the warehouse with a large bag of packed lunches. There were various pallets scattered on the open space. The pallets were very clean. It is also very comfortable to sit on.Those who ordered lunch happily put down their work and went to the team leader to report their names to get their lunch boxes, while Xiao Zhao and I were going out to find fast food.
When the two of us walked out of the warehouse door, we began to regret that we hadn't ordered a lunch box.The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and a layer of snow has accumulated on the ground, leaving a footprint in the shape of stepping on it.And the street outside is also clean and quiet, there are no fast food trucks at all, let alone people selling fast food.
Xiao Zhao looked at me with a masked face, and I also looked at him with a surprised face, and then listened to the growling of each other's stomachs. The silence at this time was enough to express everything.There is no way, we always have to pay for our own willfulness, just like the two of us now can only accept the reality of being hungry.Everything is like this. When you want to be unique, you have to think about the consequences you will bear.If you continue to choose to persist, it means you have to take the risk of bearing the consequences.
Xiao Zhao took out two small breads from the pocket of his cotton coat and handed one to me. This is our lunch.We found an abandoned passenger car in the courtyard. The door of the car was gone, the tires were shriveled, and the exterior of the car was even more rusty.We walked into the car to hide, looking at the gray sky, watching the falling snowflakes. At this moment, we didn’t know what we were thinking. We just wanted to finish work early and earn enough money to go home for dinner.
The one-hour lunch break passed quickly, spent hungry.
There are more and more work orders in the afternoon. This is the list of this brand purchased by people in this place and nearby areas during this shopping festival. I heard from the staff that this is only a part, and there are still many unprinted order pages that will be printed out one after another. .
More orders mean that the types of goods are becoming more and more complicated. Some orders are just a small commodity in the smallest box, while some orders are filled with various goods in the largest box.This is when the staff in charge of scanning codes began to select and compete for the goods when they were sorted and placed on the assembly line for scanning codes!
Most of the staff in the assembly line responsible for scanning codes are women. They include young people in their 30s and [-]s and middle-aged people. Their techniques are fast and accurate. For us, they are scanning codes, but for them they are money.
At first, when I was sorting small items in the smallest boxes, on the way to the assembly line for scanning codes after sorting, before I put the small boxes on the assembly line, I would see all the people in charge of scanning codes. Beckoning me to move to the line they are in charge of.I'm still wondering why I'm so enthusiastic, is it because I look hard or I'm too attractive?
But when I go there after sorting the largest boxes, no one will wave to me anymore. When you put the goods on the assembly line, they will come out and drive you away to prevent you from putting the goods there.Among them, there is no lack of the assembly line that recruited you last time. As long as you pull a large cardboard box, you will be stared at by all the code scanners.Turning around, they kept waving and fighting behind me. I looked back and saw that it was Xiao Zhao who was pushing a cart full of goods. His cart was full of small cardboard boxes.Only then did I realize that the small cardboard boxes were their favorite.
There are not a few people who have encountered the same situation as me. We all push large cartons but have nowhere to put them, because no matter where you put them, you will be driven out by the scanners on that line.I was angry, they were equally angry, and they seemed even more angry!
The person in charge of the warehouse came over and kept yelling at them for not being able to pick and choose the goods as they came, and let us place them at will.The women on the assembly line dare not speak, but their facial expressions and the movement and strength of scanning codes with their hands tell people that they are still very angry.
The person in charge said a few more words to them, and finally ended with the sentence "If you don't like to do it, get out."This made me feel instantly refreshed.Later, I consulted the staff inside, and it turned out that what they scan the code is based on piece count, and the piece count standard is a complete package rather than the quantity of goods.It’s no wonder why they like to choose small boxes. A small box sometimes has only one item, and they can easily get a commission by scanning and packing this item, while a large box is heavy and has many items. Of course, it’s not worthwhile.
I only remember a little girl on an assembly line with a super sweet smile. Whenever someone pushed a small box, she would smile and wave to him and sweetly shout "Come here! Come here!".And when there was a big box ready to be unloaded there, she was not bored, she also smiled and said to the person pushing the cart, "Are you willing to put it here and let me carry such a heavy box?" Pushed it elsewhere.
Even Xiao Zhao told me about it when she went to the bathroom with me to get some fresh air. It seems that her sweet smile is really suitable for most boys.Beautiful and lovely women are attractive.But if a woman is not only beautiful and cute, but also has a high emotional intelligence, then she is a woman who can make money.Such a woman is definitely better than a player with low EQ who shows both emotions and anger.
After a morning of adaptation, everyone is familiar with the terrain, the general orientation of the shelves, and the working methods, and the speed and efficiency have also improved. Can be different.
One afternoon was spent in running around and stretching and bending again and again.The feeling of hunger during work is not so hungry at the moment when it is really over, and the rest is full of fatigue.
When we got on the bus, Xiao Zhao and I sat on the seats numbly. The people on the bus were chatting happily, some were bragging, some were chatting about all kinds of work today, and some were chatting about games , In those few years, the eldest sister was also chattering and laughing from time to time.It can be seen that everyone has the relaxation after a busy day and the joy of getting paid for their labor.In fact, Xiao Zhao and I also have some feelings like this, but we just hide them in our hearts and don't express them.Another reason is to jump out of the thinking of just working and return to the original life, but still have to face the original troubles.
The leader got on the bus, still holding a stack of hundred-yuan bills in his hand, and read the names one by one according to the sign-in book. After the person whose name was read arrived, the leader would hand over a hundred-yuan bill.Although the banknote is not brand new, no one dislikes it. Even if it falls into a dirty pool, people still think it is very beautiful.
Seeing that other people have received banknotes and those whose names have not been read are very anxious, but they still pretend to be very calm on the surface, but some anxious little actions will betray the anxiety in their hearts.
Xiao Zhao and I got the banknote, and I put it in my clothes pocket.After all the banknotes were distributed, the team leader stood in the front row and said a few polite words. The general content was to thank you for your cooperation today. Everyone has worked hard. If there is such an opportunity in the future, I hope to cooperate with you again and so on.After speaking, everyone gave a round of applause politely, and then the car started.
It was such a tiring job, but it made me have a deeper relationship with it in the next period of time, and it was also caused by my own negligence.
After getting off the bus, Xiao Zhao and I were already so hungry that our chests were pressed against our backs.The aroma from the food stalls on the street made Xiao Zhao and I swallow our saliva, and the gluttony and hunger were all hooked out at once.The two of us hurried up to buy some snacks while waiting for the bus to fill our hungry stomachs. At this time, the two of us were like Bajie eating ginseng fruit. We didn’t taste the specific taste of the food in our hands, so we swallowed it whole. Stomach went.
I remember that the night was very cold, my body was very tired, and my stomach was very hungry. When I was waiting for the bus, my eyes were full of longing, as if I was waiting for a hero who could save me.
The car came and we got in the car.The car drove all the way, and we both just stared out the window blankly, not talking much.When the bus came to the place where I was going to get off, I reached into my pants pocket where I used to put my phone, but it was empty.Yes, it was empty!Only then did I realize that my mobile phone had fallen on the bus that had just finished work and picked us up. I used Xiao Zhao’s mobile phone to call my number back, but no one answered the first two times. Then it just turned off directly.
I was so annoyed that my mind went blank.The sudden accident made me feel a little overwhelmed for a moment, and then anger filled my whole mood.I scolded the person who picked up my mobile phone, scolded the unfairness of this world, and scolded all the ups and downs I have encountered!I tried my best to suppress my nearly collapsed mentality, and suddenly I had an urge to cry. I have already forgotten when was the last time I cried, probably in the distant childhood.This kind of grievance in my heart at this time is something I have never felt since I spent my middle school time!
When the vehicle arrived at the stop, I got out of the car in a daze.I am wronged, I am sad, but what I should really be angry with is my own carelessness. If I can touch my pocket more before getting off the car, such things will not happen.This undoubtedly made my financial situation even worse.
I didn't eat lunch and worked all afternoon hungry, and lost my mobile phone in vain. This part-time job experience was full of tears for me.But at this moment, I inexplicably miss that time, the age when I failed again and again but the future is still full of infinite possibilities.
(End of this chapter)
In the winter of 2016, in a certain city in the north.
I forget which afternoon it was, a phone ringing interrupted my thoughts of playing computer games.I reluctantly picked up the phone, it was Xiao Zhao calling.He asked me where I was at this time, I reported the name of the Internet cafe I was in, then hung up the phone in a hurry and continued to immerse myself in the online game.After a while, Xiao Zhao rushed to the seat next to me and sat down with two bottles of Coke in his hand.After I said "It's right, so I can get on the account quickly", I stopped talking, and then the two of us began to immerse ourselves in online games together.This is a scene that I am not familiar with at ordinary times.
I don’t know how long I played in the smoky Internet cafe. The not-so-circulating air and the bad smell of second-hand smoke began to make my head feel a little dizzy, but I still sat here until I almost suffocated before I was willing to leave.
After leaving the Internet cafe, it was almost late at night.Xiao Zhao and I found a noodle restaurant we often go to for dinner. The environment of the noodle restaurant is not bad, it is open 24 hours, of course, the most important thing is that it is cheap.Two bowls of the most common noodle soup plus a plate of side dishes cost only about 20 yuan, and they taste very delicious.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Zhao suddenly asked me if I knew any places where I could get part-time jobs, the ones that require daily pay.I was taken aback for a moment, and at this moment, I suddenly realized that I hadn't worked for a long time.Time can't help but, I have been decadent for so long.
In the summer of 2016, I graduated from university at the age of 22, and it was this year that I mastered a new type of snack.Relying on the absence of this snack on the market in my city, I made an important decision.Like many passionate young people, I decided to start a business and create my own brand and business!I mistakenly believed that the social practice activities I participated in in my college career and the work practice career in my senior year have accumulated enough social experience and work experience.I mistakenly think that I am the "genius" recognized by God and buried for a long time.It was this delusion that made me take great pains to persuade my family to invest some money for me, and then put together my meager savings and borrowed money to start investing in what I called "starting a business".In fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is a farce than a business.
At the beginning of entrepreneurship, you must start with opening your own small shop. The initial stage is always full of enthusiasm. You carefully inspect the project, choose the venue, and do everything by yourself. "ability".I go out early and return late every day, and I am busy until late at night, giving people the illusion of "promising young people".In fact, I was just escaping, escaping from the cruel reality. Even so, I was still willing to bump into the south wall.I know very well in my heart that the reason why I choose to start a business is because I don't want to work for others. I don't want to listen to other people's orders and be at the mercy of others in the workplace.Escape from the reality that I have grown up and stepped into society, escape from my incompatibility with society...
It was only when I started to invest that I realized that things like money were really worthless. Before I could buy anything, I had already spent a lot of money on inspections alone.Add in finding people for help, buying items, and other trivial things, and in short, money will be used everywhere whether it is what you think or you can't think of.The ins and outs add up to a total investment beyond expectations.When the investment funds for a business cannot be sufficient, the failure has actually been predicted in advance.
The final result can be imagined. Due to excessive optimism, serious lack of ability and experience, and the joint urging of many factors, this fragile business survived for less than half a year before it died without a problem.All that was left was my foreign debts and a decadent and disappointed me.It said it was half a year, but the real business time was only one or two months, and the rest of the time was completely in a state of unwillingness to support.Even in the final stage, I couldn't really have my own complete store, and everything failed completely in the semi-finished period.
I'm really stupid, if this thing can make a lot of money, will it be my turn to discover it?Besides, there are enough reasons for something not to have a market in one place, if you don’t have the ability to solve this reason, it’s better not to touch it lightly.As the saying goes, "The meal is ready, and it's my turn to eat?" It's just that my mind was already dazed at that time, and I couldn't listen to what others tried to persuade me.
My family paid off the foreign debts I owed, but the standard of living also declined accordingly.It was also from this year that I began to suffer from insomnia every night. The long-term insomnia made me a little haggard during that time.
I used to think that stepping out of the campus is equivalent to realizing true freedom, but the setbacks and failures are like a welcome ceremony for you from the society, used to tell you the complexity and difficulty of the adult world.Losing the shelter of the campus means losing the tolerance of the world and the possibility of being lenient.At this time, how much I want to go back to campus to be a student who is studying in peace and stability!
I began to choose to escape, sleeping during the day, going to the Internet cafe to play games in the afternoon, and returning home at night to continue the state of trouble and insomnia.It lasted for a while, and after being told by Xiao Zhao today, I realized that I hadn't made any money for a long time.I thought back to the period when I just graduated from high school. The part-time self with hope and motivation seemed to have been left in the past.I have not had a part-time job in my four years of college career, and I have spent all of my time playing, wasting my time, and making meaningless comparisons with others, which is a deformed state of life.In my inherent thinking at that time, it seemed that going out to do a part-time job was a shameful and sad behavior.And the sad thing is that I'm only now beginning to see all of this in my past.
I looked at Xiao Zhao who was eating noodles, and his condition was not very good.He went to a teacher training college in this city. When he first entered college, he would work as an assistant teacher or private tutor in extracurricular tutoring classes during the holidays. After graduation, he naturally became a teacher. Not the teachers in the school, but the teachers in the extracurricular tutoring classes, teaching chemistry and mathematics for junior high school students.But like me, he is also a college student who has just graduated, so the salary is not very high, and it is inevitable that he will be asked to do more work outside the scope of his work.The most important thing is that he often prepares for public school exams and teacher certification exams.
When Xiao Zhao was in college, she met a girlfriend with a wealthy family and outstanding looks and temperament. She was tall, gentle and dignified, and her conversation was graceful. She was a girl of the goddess level in everyone's mind.The diligent little Zhao Jing used his vacation and rest time as a tutor, thus earning a lot of living expenses, which invisibly provided more financial security for their dating, and also made his love more stable. Sweet, the picture of the two walking hand in hand in the campus is definitely a couple combination that makes people envious and envious of others.
At that time, our identities were only students, and the university campus was far less complicated than society, and the gap between the rich and the poor between students was also sealed by the campus, and it was not so obvious, and the thinking mode and consumption space were also not pulled. The size is very large, so Xiao Zhao has been living a very comfortable and comfortable life.
With the growth of school age and the continuous expansion of the girl's horizons, the cognition of the world view has gradually been different from that of Xiao Zhao. However, the real change is the moment when she leaves the campus and enters the society.
The beautiful things from the outside world and the richer world are coming one after another, which makes people suddenly understand that the campus is a place where the gap between the rich and the poor is relatively weakened, and the gap reflected in the living conditions of students is nothing more than the amount of pocket money and The gap between food and clothing.The collective environment and consumption environment of the campus cannot truly reflect the gap brought about by the original family.
Xiao Zhao's girlfriend's family conditions are already superior. When she discarded her student status, her vision, ability to deal with people, and the improvement of contacts and resources brought to her by the elders in the family made the overall gap between her and Xiao Zhao It is constantly expanding.And the girl didn't have the slightest intention of sharing the joys and sorrows with Xiao Zhao or using the family's network resources to help Xiao Zhao in his career, so the relationship became fragile.
Love on campus only needs to be meticulous, considerate and romantic, but in society it will gradually become material-based, and romance has begun to become less important. Love without a good economy as a support is very unreliable.
When the quality of life and material requirements become higher, Xiao Zhao's economic conditions and cognitive level are no longer sufficient to support this relationship. He wants to do some part-time jobs during the rest time, on the one hand earn a little money On the other hand, he wants to have something to do all the time to choose to temporarily forget these troubles.
I didn't speak, I know he and I both know that even so, his relationship won't change in any way, let alone get better, breaking up is only a matter of time. The words "Don't bully the young and poor" don't carry much weight in real society.
The world of adults is really full of all kinds of troubles, and these troubles will directly determine how you live in the days to come, and even determine the length of your lifespan.
I haven't done part-time jobs for a long time. I don't know if the labor service companies from four years ago are still there, and I don't know where to get information about part-time jobs and the current situation of the part-time job market.
At this moment, I thought of a person, a classmate I know who has been working part-time during the holidays, maybe he will give us these answers.
After asking, Xiao Zhao and I were drawn into a WeChat group for part-time jobs in the same city.There will be part-time job information appearing here every day, including job types, working hours, working locations, working hours, and wages.
It coincides with a shopping festival at the end of the year, and a part-time worker in a logistics warehouse who is in urgent need of sorting will need a part-time sorter every day for the next few days.The working hours are from [-]:[-] a.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., and the salary is [-] yuan, and the payment is settled after get off work.Gather at the gate of a certain university at [-]:[-], and there will be a bus to take you to the logistics warehouse where you work.Xiao Zhao and I added the wechat of the team leader who sent the message, picked a date when he was off, and signed up for this part-time job.
In the early morning of that day, Xiao Zhao and I took the bus to the meeting point.It's only six or seven stations away from where we live, but during that time I was a bit confused, I had lost the habit of getting up early, and I was not used to coming here suddenly.
We found the shuttle, and it stopped at the gate of the nearby university.Same as the previous part-time job, after filling in the name and calling the phone to sign in with the team leader, you can get on the bus and wait.The weather was very cold, so Xiao Zhao and I bought pancakes and fruits at the gate of the university and got on the bus.
There are a lot of people who come to this part-time job, about 40 people, and a bus is almost full.There are men and women. Most of the boys are college students, and there are a few girls. Most of them come with their boyfriends. They work together to make money and have romantic dinners together. It is a good way to increase feelings and sweetness. degrees of opportunity.Besides them, there were five or six middle-aged women in their 40s.They wore coats of the style that were popular about ten years ago and dusty shoes of the street stall style. Their hair was greasy. They neither made up nor washed their hair, and two of them had even mixed more than half of their hair. Gray hair.They are of low quality and speak loudly.They were chewing the tongues of their neighbors, sometimes with exaggerated expressions, and sometimes laughed.From their chats, it can be heard that some of them are married and some are not.However, they do have a common feature, that is, everyone has no job, and their biggest hobbies are fighting landlords and playing mahjong.
The cold winter made the car window covered with beautiful grilles, a small part of which was melted by the morning sun. Looking at the busy and energetic figures on the university campus outside the car window, I thought of going back to this time last year. I was preparing materials for next year's graduation in school.In just one year, I changed from a college student full of infinite possibilities to a jobless vagrant in the society, and I couldn't help feeling secretly in my heart.
In the car, a boy was wearing a mask and put warm earmuffs on his head backwards, which looked like Monkey King's "curse" in Journey to the West.He chatted endlessly about playing games and anime with the people next to him, bragging about how good he was at playing games.He also claimed that he had already participated in this part-time job last year, and the content of the job was a breeze for him.
I noticed that the clothes he was wearing were a little dirty, and he was carrying a schoolbag that could no longer tell whether it was dark blue or pure black, with several cute loli girl prints printed on it.It may be due to the long time of use, the pattern printed on it has withered and yellowed and has fallen off a lot. The things he uses are almost all the anime peripherals of the girl series. It goes without saying that he must be an otaku.
The car drove for about 10 minutes and came to the work place, which is close to the outermost ring of the city and is a relatively remote place.
This is a warehouse of an online shopping e-commerce brand with a large area.The area we are in is a well-known dried fruit brand, which is full of all the products of this brand.There are four shelves in total, and the joints of each floor have the product number and the name of the product placed.There are about four to five products on the first floor.
The team leader asked us if we would like to order boxed lunch for lunch. Each serving costs [-] yuan. You can choose to order or not. If you don’t order, you can solve the lunch problem by yourself during the lunch break.Someone asked if there was a fast food truck in the vicinity of work, and the team leader said there was.After hearing this answer, I chose to have lunch on my own. I wanted to control the choice of eating in my own hands. Xiao Zhao naturally made the same choice as me.
The staff inside and the team leader were connected for a while and asked us to line up to stand in a row. After calling our names and taking a group photo, the staff began to tell us about the work content and working methods.
There are many printed lists at the ticket printing machine in the warehouse, some of them are single-page and some are multi-page, and the multi-page will be bound.Each list represents the goods that need to be picked up for a job.After getting a leaflet, you need to choose a cart. There are many carts, all of which are parked in the area where the carts are located. You can choose the car at will, and choose whichever one is easy to push.
The model of the required packaging carton will be marked on the list, and there are various types of cartons in the place where the cartons are stored, and each model has its own area for sorting personnel to pick up.
I noticed that there are many people working in the warehouse, and their division of labor is different. Some are responsible for scanning codes, some are responsible for sorting, some are responsible for pulling and folding cartons, and some are responsible for replenishment.The treatment enjoyed by different types of jobs will certainly be different.
Since there were a lot of part-timers recruited this time, we were divided into three groups to study with three different staff members.All three are sorters in the warehouse. Every shopping festival and when orders are overflowing, they will find cooperative part-time team leaders to hire temporary workers to help.
Xiao Zhao and I followed a brother in his early thirties to learn the workflow and content.He randomly picked out a single page, which was a single page with two sheets of paper stapled together.A number is printed on the carton column on the single page, which represents the corresponding carton model, and the number printed on the quantity is the number of cartons required.
Typically smaller cartons require more quantity and larger cartons require less.Then there is the form of the product, the code of the product is printed on the front, the first character is usually a letter, representing the shelf corresponding to the letter, the second character of the code is a number, representing the area of the shelf where the product is located, 1 and 4 are the two side areas, 2 and 3 represent the middle.An area generally has three to four different commodities placed according to the size of the commodities.
The third digit of the code is also a number representing the number of layers of the shelf where the product is located. The number 1 is the bottom layer and 4 is the highest layer.
The last digit of the code is a letter, which is the code that finally locks the specific product, that is to say, the product code tells you which product in which area and which layer the product is located.
The name of the corresponding product is printed after the code, which is convenient for you to check and confirm whether the product you picked up is correct.
After the product name is the quantity to pick up the product.Finally, the product code of the product is printed for confirmation of inaccuracy.
While demonstrating, the staff skillfully shuttled through the commodity area to be sorted.Every time he sorted a product, he would use his thumb to place the corresponding product on the single page.He reminded us to do the same in the process of work so as not to get confused and pick up the wrong product.After all the products on a single page are sorted, the sorting of a cart is completed.Then push the sorted cart of goods to the assembly line in the code scanning area, and hand it over to the staff of the code scanning group to scan the code and pack it.
If you pick up a product but there is no such product on the shelf, you need to tear a crack in the place corresponding to the product on the single page, and finally sort the single page and place the single page where the missing product should be placed. in the carton.If you encounter replenishment staff, you should also give feedback in time, and they will replenish the product shelves in time.
The content of the work is not difficult, as long as you rely on your legs to find the goods to be sorted and concentrate on ensuring the correct rate of sorting.The staff reminded us not to be afraid of slowness, but try not to make mistakes, thinking that when scanning the code, it will not be scanned and re-sorting will take a long time.Also, don't listen to music during the sorting process, it will distract you.
The middle-aged women stared and yelled "this job is too hard to remember" and other complaints. Before they even did it, they began to resist, and there they complained with reluctance. The harshness of the big words makes people feel bored.
The staff asked them suspiciously, is this job difficult?They replied that they wanted to do the kind of work that does not require brain power and excessive physical strength, and a fool would do it.
As soon as this remark came out, I saw that everyone was covering their mouths and laughing at them, and some couldn't hold back their laughter.But the few of them thought that they were bargaining with the capitalists and considered themselves a hero.Xiao Zhao and I looked at each other, both of our eyes were full of boredom and helplessness towards these people, what was annoying was their own, and what was helpless was their ignorance.
One of the staff smiled and said that cleaners are still needed here, that is, the paper scraps and ropes of the newly shipped boxes of goods need to be cleaned after opening.Asked them if they would like to, they clapped their hands and said yes and agreed.So they picked up the broom and started the simple job they dreamed of, and became "fools" as they wished.
We started to get to work with single page pick carts.I tried to push a few carts, and I chose one that was easy to push and prepared to go to work.I searched unfamiliarly for each product on the single page I got, and carefully proofread the code and quantity of the product.Although a staff member took us through the process before, I was not very familiar with the whole warehouse, and it took me a long time to wait for this car to be sorted.
I glanced at Xiao Zhao, who was also sorting carefully and unfamiliarly there. The warehouse has a large area, and the goods that need to be sorted are not necessarily in which area. The chance of us meeting is still very small.When I passed the middle aisle between the two shelves, those middle-aged women were gathering there, chatting and laughing.With brooms in hand, they spoke loudly and laughed harshly.From time to time, the staff reminded them not to patronize chatting, so as not to affect the work in hand.They responded with a "gun and stick" tone, saying "No, they work very seriously."
The speed of the original sorting workers in the warehouse is much higher than that of our temporary workers. They are already quite familiar with the area where the items are placed in the warehouse, and they will basically not go wrong. The fault tolerance rate is very low. Very efficient.
On the contrary, there is a temporary worker who is different. He wears earphones and is extremely fast. Every time he meets him, he pushes the cart and walks past you quickly. It's so fast that it feels a little exaggerated, as if he is deliberately performing for us, telling us with his actions that he and I are not the same kind of people.He is the anime otaku who wears the warmer earmuffs backwards. I remembered what he said he had done this job in the previous year. Maybe this job is really just a piece of cake for him.
However, I was wrong, because soon after I heard the staff scolding him, they told him loudly that you slow down and don't act recklessly!After you sort the things and scan the QR code, you will find that they are all wrong!Be steady, stop listening to music!Don't go wrong again!
I noticed that after hearing this, many people laughed and whispered that he deserved it. Everyone treated him as a joke when he was criticized.Not because of anything else, just because he always bumped into other people or disturbed other people's work in order to show his speed at work, but he never said a word of apology.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Zhao found me and asked me if I was going to the bathroom.I have been working all the time, I seem to have forgotten my physical needs. Only after he said this did I realize that it was time for me to go to the bathroom.I said I would go after sorting the car, and he helped me sort it together.The strength of two people will always be stronger than that of a single soldier. The cart was sorted quickly, and the two of us put the cart in an open space and walked towards the exit of the warehouse.
The toilet is in an office building next to the warehouse. You need to enter and exit from the warehouse door and walk a short distance into the office building to find it.
There is a part-time team leader sitting at the door of the warehouse.There is a small table in front of him, and there is a notebook on the table, which is used to register part-time workers who go to the bathroom. There are several columns written on it, including name, mobile phone number, departure time, and return time.Fill it out one by one when you leave, and fill in the return time when you come back, and you can go back to work.I know, this is because I am afraid that someone will run away halfway.Generally, no one would run away in such a remote place. If it was closer to the urban area, it would be hard to say.
Xiao Zhao and I walked towards the office building after filling it out. In the column of departure time, we both deliberately filled in a time a few minutes later than this time.Just to take a breather and rest for a few minutes.
The sky that was still sunny in the morning is now overcast, and it is snowing lightly.It is as cold inside the warehouse as outside, but the work requires constant walking, so the body will naturally warm up and even sweat a lot.
The bathroom is on the second floor of the office building. The environment in the office building is neither good nor bad. It is a very common office environment.Xiao Zhao and I found a corridor and sat on the steps for a while. After a long period of black and white upside down, I suddenly walked so many roads, and I still felt a little tired. .
At twelve o'clock at noon, it was lunch break time. Several team leaders walked into an open space in the warehouse with a large bag of packed lunches. There were various pallets scattered on the open space. The pallets were very clean. It is also very comfortable to sit on.Those who ordered lunch happily put down their work and went to the team leader to report their names to get their lunch boxes, while Xiao Zhao and I were going out to find fast food.
When the two of us walked out of the warehouse door, we began to regret that we hadn't ordered a lunch box.The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and a layer of snow has accumulated on the ground, leaving a footprint in the shape of stepping on it.And the street outside is also clean and quiet, there are no fast food trucks at all, let alone people selling fast food.
Xiao Zhao looked at me with a masked face, and I also looked at him with a surprised face, and then listened to the growling of each other's stomachs. The silence at this time was enough to express everything.There is no way, we always have to pay for our own willfulness, just like the two of us now can only accept the reality of being hungry.Everything is like this. When you want to be unique, you have to think about the consequences you will bear.If you continue to choose to persist, it means you have to take the risk of bearing the consequences.
Xiao Zhao took out two small breads from the pocket of his cotton coat and handed one to me. This is our lunch.We found an abandoned passenger car in the courtyard. The door of the car was gone, the tires were shriveled, and the exterior of the car was even more rusty.We walked into the car to hide, looking at the gray sky, watching the falling snowflakes. At this moment, we didn’t know what we were thinking. We just wanted to finish work early and earn enough money to go home for dinner.
The one-hour lunch break passed quickly, spent hungry.
There are more and more work orders in the afternoon. This is the list of this brand purchased by people in this place and nearby areas during this shopping festival. I heard from the staff that this is only a part, and there are still many unprinted order pages that will be printed out one after another. .
More orders mean that the types of goods are becoming more and more complicated. Some orders are just a small commodity in the smallest box, while some orders are filled with various goods in the largest box.This is when the staff in charge of scanning codes began to select and compete for the goods when they were sorted and placed on the assembly line for scanning codes!
Most of the staff in the assembly line responsible for scanning codes are women. They include young people in their 30s and [-]s and middle-aged people. Their techniques are fast and accurate. For us, they are scanning codes, but for them they are money.
At first, when I was sorting small items in the smallest boxes, on the way to the assembly line for scanning codes after sorting, before I put the small boxes on the assembly line, I would see all the people in charge of scanning codes. Beckoning me to move to the line they are in charge of.I'm still wondering why I'm so enthusiastic, is it because I look hard or I'm too attractive?
But when I go there after sorting the largest boxes, no one will wave to me anymore. When you put the goods on the assembly line, they will come out and drive you away to prevent you from putting the goods there.Among them, there is no lack of the assembly line that recruited you last time. As long as you pull a large cardboard box, you will be stared at by all the code scanners.Turning around, they kept waving and fighting behind me. I looked back and saw that it was Xiao Zhao who was pushing a cart full of goods. His cart was full of small cardboard boxes.Only then did I realize that the small cardboard boxes were their favorite.
There are not a few people who have encountered the same situation as me. We all push large cartons but have nowhere to put them, because no matter where you put them, you will be driven out by the scanners on that line.I was angry, they were equally angry, and they seemed even more angry!
The person in charge of the warehouse came over and kept yelling at them for not being able to pick and choose the goods as they came, and let us place them at will.The women on the assembly line dare not speak, but their facial expressions and the movement and strength of scanning codes with their hands tell people that they are still very angry.
The person in charge said a few more words to them, and finally ended with the sentence "If you don't like to do it, get out."This made me feel instantly refreshed.Later, I consulted the staff inside, and it turned out that what they scan the code is based on piece count, and the piece count standard is a complete package rather than the quantity of goods.It’s no wonder why they like to choose small boxes. A small box sometimes has only one item, and they can easily get a commission by scanning and packing this item, while a large box is heavy and has many items. Of course, it’s not worthwhile.
I only remember a little girl on an assembly line with a super sweet smile. Whenever someone pushed a small box, she would smile and wave to him and sweetly shout "Come here! Come here!".And when there was a big box ready to be unloaded there, she was not bored, she also smiled and said to the person pushing the cart, "Are you willing to put it here and let me carry such a heavy box?" Pushed it elsewhere.
Even Xiao Zhao told me about it when she went to the bathroom with me to get some fresh air. It seems that her sweet smile is really suitable for most boys.Beautiful and lovely women are attractive.But if a woman is not only beautiful and cute, but also has a high emotional intelligence, then she is a woman who can make money.Such a woman is definitely better than a player with low EQ who shows both emotions and anger.
After a morning of adaptation, everyone is familiar with the terrain, the general orientation of the shelves, and the working methods, and the speed and efficiency have also improved. Can be different.
One afternoon was spent in running around and stretching and bending again and again.The feeling of hunger during work is not so hungry at the moment when it is really over, and the rest is full of fatigue.
When we got on the bus, Xiao Zhao and I sat on the seats numbly. The people on the bus were chatting happily, some were bragging, some were chatting about all kinds of work today, and some were chatting about games , In those few years, the eldest sister was also chattering and laughing from time to time.It can be seen that everyone has the relaxation after a busy day and the joy of getting paid for their labor.In fact, Xiao Zhao and I also have some feelings like this, but we just hide them in our hearts and don't express them.Another reason is to jump out of the thinking of just working and return to the original life, but still have to face the original troubles.
The leader got on the bus, still holding a stack of hundred-yuan bills in his hand, and read the names one by one according to the sign-in book. After the person whose name was read arrived, the leader would hand over a hundred-yuan bill.Although the banknote is not brand new, no one dislikes it. Even if it falls into a dirty pool, people still think it is very beautiful.
Seeing that other people have received banknotes and those whose names have not been read are very anxious, but they still pretend to be very calm on the surface, but some anxious little actions will betray the anxiety in their hearts.
Xiao Zhao and I got the banknote, and I put it in my clothes pocket.After all the banknotes were distributed, the team leader stood in the front row and said a few polite words. The general content was to thank you for your cooperation today. Everyone has worked hard. If there is such an opportunity in the future, I hope to cooperate with you again and so on.After speaking, everyone gave a round of applause politely, and then the car started.
It was such a tiring job, but it made me have a deeper relationship with it in the next period of time, and it was also caused by my own negligence.
After getting off the bus, Xiao Zhao and I were already so hungry that our chests were pressed against our backs.The aroma from the food stalls on the street made Xiao Zhao and I swallow our saliva, and the gluttony and hunger were all hooked out at once.The two of us hurried up to buy some snacks while waiting for the bus to fill our hungry stomachs. At this time, the two of us were like Bajie eating ginseng fruit. We didn’t taste the specific taste of the food in our hands, so we swallowed it whole. Stomach went.
I remember that the night was very cold, my body was very tired, and my stomach was very hungry. When I was waiting for the bus, my eyes were full of longing, as if I was waiting for a hero who could save me.
The car came and we got in the car.The car drove all the way, and we both just stared out the window blankly, not talking much.When the bus came to the place where I was going to get off, I reached into my pants pocket where I used to put my phone, but it was empty.Yes, it was empty!Only then did I realize that my mobile phone had fallen on the bus that had just finished work and picked us up. I used Xiao Zhao’s mobile phone to call my number back, but no one answered the first two times. Then it just turned off directly.
I was so annoyed that my mind went blank.The sudden accident made me feel a little overwhelmed for a moment, and then anger filled my whole mood.I scolded the person who picked up my mobile phone, scolded the unfairness of this world, and scolded all the ups and downs I have encountered!I tried my best to suppress my nearly collapsed mentality, and suddenly I had an urge to cry. I have already forgotten when was the last time I cried, probably in the distant childhood.This kind of grievance in my heart at this time is something I have never felt since I spent my middle school time!
When the vehicle arrived at the stop, I got out of the car in a daze.I am wronged, I am sad, but what I should really be angry with is my own carelessness. If I can touch my pocket more before getting off the car, such things will not happen.This undoubtedly made my financial situation even worse.
I didn't eat lunch and worked all afternoon hungry, and lost my mobile phone in vain. This part-time job experience was full of tears for me.But at this moment, I inexplicably miss that time, the age when I failed again and again but the future is still full of infinite possibilities.
