part-time notes

Chapter 9 Significant part-time activities

In 2017, in late spring and early summer, in a certain city in the north.

In the city where I live, the weather in the middle of May is the most comfortable and pleasant.It is warm but not hot, cool but not harsh, the sun is just right, and it is comfortable and pleasant.

After several months of adjustments, my life is back on track.I found another job. Although the salary was not very high, I was busy with things every day, and my mentality became much more stable.After a series of failures and lessons, I also understand that what a person of ordinary background and knowledge like me should do is to walk step by step in a down-to-earth manner. .

I started to strengthen physical exercise to make my body as strong as possible. Although it is difficult to persist, this is the first step I want to change myself.I don't know how long I can last, I only know that one more day is one day.

Weekends are a great way to relax both physically and mentally.This Friday, I originally thought that I would find Lao Zhao and Xiao Zhao to play a basketball game on Saturday, let the sweat spill on the court, and experience my favorite sport in my school days.Unexpectedly, the two of them had things to play, and the game was announced as a failure before the group was formed.It is always boring to play by yourself, and there is always an inexplicable gap in playing with strangers, which is why it is called "no brothers, no basketball".

The weekend is coming and I don't know what to do.The only thing I know is that I don't want to play games all day in the dark like before!Think about it carefully and remember that the part-time job group I joined before seems to have never quit, so it's better to take a part-time job for a day or two!You can find something to do, and you can also use the money you earn to buy some snacks to eat.

I found a part-time job group on WeChat to check what part-time jobs are available recently. I haven’t paid attention to them for a long time. Suddenly, I found that there are quite a lot of part-time jobs recently. Basically, there are all kinds of sales and express delivery. .I saw a daily job and thought it was more suitable, so I decided to ask to see if I could do this part-time job.

The recruitment information is like this. A shopping mall in a certain district needs ten bill-issuing personnel in the near future.Boys are preferred, aged between 35 and 75, and they are required to be serious and down-to-earth, not slick.The working hours are from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, with one hour lunch break, and the salary is [-] per day.The working location is XX Street, XX District, and nearby business districts, the contact number is XXX, and WeChat is synchronized.

I added the team leader’s WeChat account according to the phone number above. His WeChat account is the WeChat account used to send messages in the part-time job group.This name is very straightforward, and it can save a lot of unnecessary links at a glance.I believe that he also met too many people, and some of them are long-winded and have limited understanding. How many times the breakdown of communication is the result of "speaking directly"!

Not long after, Taozi passed my friend verification.I copied the recruitment information and sent it to him to ask him if the part-time job is still available.He responded with a voice message telling me that I was still recruiting and asked my name and age.After I replied with my name and age, he asked me to send him a photo of my life. I was a little confused and sent him a photo of my life.Not long after, he said yes and pulled me closer. In a group chat, he reminded me to change the nickname of the group to my own name. The name of the group chat was the date of the next day plus a few words for the single group.I asked him about the employer's information and asked him if it was a restaurant in a shopping mall, and he replied no, it was a playground for children.I confirmed the working hours and specific work needs with him again.He told me to gather at Exit No. [-] of the subway station outside the mall at [-]:[-]. I need a backpack and power bank for work, and I have downloaded the watermark camera app in my mobile phone in advance.As soon as I saw the power bank, I continued to ask him if he had to use his mobile phone frequently during work, and the answer was yes.

After confirming the necessary items for the work, I started to prepare. I downloaded the watermark camera, put the fully charged power bank and the data cable into the backpack, and I was ready.Everything is ready, only tomorrow's part-time job is left.

Early the next morning, I picked up my backpack and went out.From my home to the destination, I need to take a few bus stops and then transfer to the subway to arrive.The sun was as bright as ever on this day, and the morning breeze was very refreshing on the face, as if the colors of the whole world were more vivid than ever.The bustling crowd on the street is very similar to the feeling of young men and women in TV commercials.

I arrived at the subway station where I was going to get off and followed yesterday's assembly instructions to find Exit [-] and get out of the station.As soon as I walked out of the subway station, I saw a few young men standing around waiting.The subway station is full of people coming and going, only a few of them are waiting here with a schoolbag on their backs, so I'm pretty sure they are the people I'm looking for.Sure enough, before I could speak, one of the short men with glasses came over and asked me if I was here to issue the bill.Maybe I was the only one who was looking left and right as soon as I got out of the subway station, as if I was looking for someone, so I was recognized right away.I nodded and said yes, he called out my name again and asked me if I was, I nodded again and said yes, and then I remembered that he asked me for a photo of my life yesterday.He took out his mobile phone and used photo editing to draw a red circle on my profile picture on a screenshot of members of our work group.This way of signing in is quite special. Whoever arrives will draw a red circle on the position of his avatar. It is very effective to see which one is missing at a glance.

No need to ask any more to know that the person wearing glasses must be Taozi.He has fair skin, is not tall, of medium build, and is about 28 or nine years old.

There were only eight people who came to issue bills today, and there were only six people including me except Taozi.I was counting the time when I saw two people riding electric bicycles coming from a corner not far away.

The arrival of the staff means that it is time to start working!Taozi took us into the mall.This shopping mall is not big, and it is not a popular shopping mall in this city.It is mainly based on a sports supermarket of a certain sports brand, plus a food court on the first floor, an early education center for children, and an entertainment city to form a whole.Only on weekends is the time when the popularity is relatively strong, and the rest of the time is relatively deserted.

While walking, Taozi called the person who connected with the employer to inform him that he had arrived.At this time, the mall has not yet officially opened, and the people who come in and out are the staff in the mall holding their IDs.Taozi told the security guard that we were from the playground on the top floor, and it just so happened that the person who had called just now came to the gate and brought us into the mall with a work permit.This is the first time I have entered this mall, I have only passed by here occasionally but never entered before.One is because it is not near my home, and the other is because it is not a well-known shopping mall worth visiting.

The interior of the shopping mall is a bit old, both in decoration and layout. If you really look back, this shopping mall has been established for more than 15 years.However, the profit is not rich, the popularity is not salty, and naturally there is no upper-level leader who is willing to spend time and money to renovate it.All in all, it's almost there.

The playground is on the top floor of the shopping mall, and the size is reasonable. It is the kind of playground that is completely for children. It is estimated that the maximum age to accept it is around twelve or thirteen years old.The amusement park has just opened, and it needs some publicity to increase its popularity. They have already placed some advertising resources in the nearby area. This time, they want to use the "human flesh advertising machine" to promote it well within this month.

The employees in the playground are very familiar with Taozi, and it seems that this is not the first time they have cooperated.They briefly docked and asked us to go to the storage room near the safe passage to get the materials needed for work.A middle-aged lady took several of us to the storage room. The materials are what we are going to distribute to passers-by at work today.There are two things, one is a single page of a leaflet, and the other is a slightly attractive thing—a fan.The fan is made of plastic, with playground advertisements and some cartoon patterns printed on it. Of course, the eye-catching address is indispensable.Summer is coming, and preparing fans for people in advance, just for free fans will also increase the probability that people are willing to extend their precious hands to pick them up, especially the elderly.And the elderly are the main force of bringing children. Children have unlimited energy at home. In order to prevent children from watching electronic products such as mobile phones and computers for a long time, it is also a good choice to take them out to play in the playground.I believe that the managers of the playground must have formulated it out of this idea.

Each of us has more than half of the fan and a half of the single pages in our backpacks, which are bulging when full and heavy on our shoulders.After all the "arms" were in order, the person in charge began to assign work locations for us. I took a look at the distribution of the locations, and they were almost all in the nearby business districts or main streets, and the farthest place was only three bus stops away.And I was assigned to a business district not far from here, where there are several shopping malls and several office buildings, as well as squares and green spaces, it is a very lively place.

I noticed that there was a man who was very different from us. He wore clown clothes, colorful wigs and a little red nose. The material he held was not a single page but a balloon, and the fan was in the huge suspenders he was wearing. in the trousers front pocket.The scope of the clown's activities is in this mall, and he will distribute balloons and fans to children to attract them to come here to play.

Before we set off, the person in charge of publicity in the playground said to us: "Your job content is actually very simple. You just go up and distribute it to people with children. After working for a long time, you are tired and you are hot. Find a It’s okay to sit in a cool place and drink some water for a while. As long as you don’t touch the bottom line of being lazy and littering single pages, everything is fine. We will also conduct inspections occasionally. If any of the above behaviors are discovered, we will be dismissed immediately and all wages will be deducted for the day .Let’s understand each other, okay.” said
He arranged for us to take a photo together.The employer of every part-time job will take photos before and after the start of work to facilitate the transfer to the next level.

All the preparatory work has been completed, and some people from the playground have joined our WeChat work group, and we started to go to our respective workplaces to work.Based on this, everyone's working place is not very far away. Some people choose to take the subway and bus, and some people choose to share bicycles.The bottom I want to reach is as if it only takes a short subway stop, and the walking route is a straight line, after three traffic posts, so I chose to walk there with my own legs.

The playground gave us 10 minutes for the journey, and within 10 minutes, we must send a selfie of ourselves and the work place taken with a watermark camera, showing the time and place, in the work group.Of course, the significance of downloading a watermarked camera is not limited to clocking in and out of get off work. The merchant also stipulates that each person must send at least two photos with the same time and location watermark to the work group every half an hour. Photos of the fan or single page to verify the work.

I was walking slowly against the bright sunshine with a heavy backpack on my back. At this moment, I was more like feeling the leisure of the city on weekends.The traffic flow at this time is not very large, and there are not many people.Basically, they are parents who get up early and take their children to training classes and hardworking young office workers.Most of the shopping malls have not yet officially opened, and sanitation workers have already cleaned up the streets.At this time, someone in the work group has uploaded a selfie of himself at the same workplace and attached a message of "check in at work".I also nervously followed the most iconic park square here and took a group photo in the same way and sent a bonus message to the work group.

After punching out the card, I was about to start working. I came to a sunny subway station and started distributing leaflets and fans.The effect can be imagined, most people are willing to accept the fan and reject the single page, even if they follow the instructions of the playground and distribute a fan and a single page together, people will often keep the fan Return the single page to me or throw it away politely in a distant trash can.This is the first time I have been distributing leaflets again after five years. I can clearly feel that the quality of people has improved a lot compared to before. There are a lot of people throwing single pages everywhere.

I handed a fan to an aunt, and she asked me after receiving it, "Is the weather hot?" Then she laughed.

I was also amused by her, and replied: "You save it for hot weather."

She walked at a slightly slower pace and waved the fan in her hand to express her gratitude.At this moment, I deeply realized how comfortable and precious a harmonious society is.

Not long after, the phone rang, it was a number from the south.I answered, and Taozi was on the other end of the phone. He asked me where I was. After I reported the number of the subway entrance, he knew and hung up the phone. I knew he was coming here to find me.I looked around, only to hear someone shouting "here, here." I turned around and saw that it was Taozi, who was walking towards me on a shared bicycle.

Taozi parked the car and locked it, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, then told the person on the other end of the phone that he was going to do something around here after getting his license number, and by the way, he would issue the bill for this spot for them If the photos are taken together, there is no need for inspectors to come here again.The "they" he wanted to replace referred to the people on the other side of the playground.

After Taozi hung up the phone, he asked me to send a fan to passers-by, preferably parents with children, and he took a few photos on the single page.I asked him if the person in charge of the playground inspection would not come?He replied that they were very busy on weekends, even if they came, they only took time to take a few photos at a few points and then hurried back to continue their work.Everything is just to make trouble with the boss, as long as we don't behave too much, no one will embarrass each other.

When he said this, I understood that they actually perform their duties from top to bottom. As long as they do their own work well, they can get by on the surface. The boss needs to know where the publicity expenses are spent and keep evidence and materials. Just submit it as proof.This is also the survival rule for employees of small private enterprises.As for the effect of publicity... well, it is not completely determined by human factors.

I began to look for passers-by with children to distribute leaflets to them, but after searching for a long time, I couldn't find a suitable one.I handed out the leaflet to a white-haired old man by accident. After the old man took the leaflet and left, Taozi frowned and said to me, "You can just send it to them, I'm taking pictures now." , how can you tell me to take a photo if you send it like this!"

I smiled and said sorry to Taozi and continued to look for a suitable billing partner.Fortunately, the subway of this class arrived at the station at this time, and pedestrians began to pour out of the subway entrance in an endless stream. Within a few minutes, Taozi successfully completed the task of taking pictures and recorded a small video.I asked him where he was going next, and he pointed to an office building not far away and said that he also had a part-time job as an operator, and he was going there next.It occurred to me that I had seen similar jobs yesterday when I browsed the part-time job group, but I didn't pay much attention to the requirement that only girls were recruited.I asked Taozi if it was the job. Taozi said yes, and then broke up with me.Before leaving, Taozi also told me to find an inconspicuous shaded place to rest for a while when I was hot or tired.

I stood at the subway entrance for a while, and the sun's light began to change with time, both in intensity and position.I found a shady place not far away and took out a single-page pad and sat under my buttocks to rest.Next to me, two females and one male, three gym marketing staffs were talking and laughing while holding a few leaflets, and from time to time, they said to passers-by, "Let's learn more about swimming and fitness."

I picked up a fan to fan the wind.A little girl with dyed yellow hair came to me and squatted down and said to me, "Brother, can you give me a fan?"

I looked at her and realized that she was one of the three who handed out gym flyers.She should be less than 20 years old, she is not tall, she is very white and cute, but she is not very good at dressing up in terms of overall attire, if she dresses up well, she will definitely be a little beauty.

I took out some fans and handed them to her and said, "Bring some for your friends too." She thanked her and walked to her friends with the fans.After receiving the fan, the other two came to my side with her and sat down to chat with me.

From the chat, I learned that they are all salespeople in a nearby gym, with a monthly salary of [-] as a basic salary, plus commissions. They work from [-] am to [-] pm every day, with one day off every week.They need at least five to ten active calls every day, which will be adjusted according to the number of calls on working days.For example, today is the weekend, and their number of calls will be more than that on weekdays.

Among the three of them, the oldest is 25 years old, and the youngest is only 17 years old. She is the little girl who came to me for a fan.They are all from the suburban counties or villages around the city. They don't like to go to school and they all come out to work very early.From their words, it can be felt that they are much more self-reliant than their peers, which may be because they entered society earlier.

After I chatted with them for a while, they began to tell me about their lazy experience at work and told me that no one is watching you here, you can find a place to sit and play games.I said that I am not very familiar with this place, and there is no suitable place to go.They pointed to a well-known international fast food brand across the road and told me that there were almost no people on the basement floor of that store, and there were many seats with soft sofas. No one can see you.And it's already connected to the shopping mall, so if someone checks and can't find you, you can say that you're in the bathroom, and then walk around and go out through the door connected to the shopping mall without delaying anything.The three of them and other colleagues in their shop often do this in the afternoon when the weather is particularly hot.

I nodded to show that I learned it, and they are going back to their shop to do things.Before leaving, the little girl with yellow hair added my WeChat and asked me for my mobile phone number to recharge.I was a little hesitant. She saw my concerns and promised me that she would only make one call. When the staff asked about their intentions, they just answered that they didn't want to do it.I still gave her my phone number.Merchants are always smart. They understand the minds of consumers very well, and they always recruit some young and beautiful opposite sex to induce them to come to consume.

After they left, I continued to distribute the leaflets and from time to time took two photos of the fans holding the fans and sent them to the work group.After posting for a while, I found that it was very boring to stand here and post the bill all the time, and the time passed very slowly.So I went straight to the B[-] of the fast food restaurant mentioned by the "gym trio" just now.There are really very few people here, and there are only three tables of guests including me.The area here is large, and there are many sofa seats against the wall.I quickly found a sofa seat and sat down.The seats are comfortable and the temperature in the room is just right, the only downside is the poor signal.

I sat back in the comfortable chair, but I was very disturbed inside.I was very worried that the inspectors of the playground would come to check, and I was worried that I would report to the leader if I couldn't find it.If that's the case, then everything I've done today will be in vain.Getting up early on weekends and going out to do part-time jobs is nothing more than a few taels of small silver, but if you can't even get these few taels of silver, wouldn't it be too useless!I hate my cowardice!Why can others be lazy and earn wages as if nothing happened and feel at ease, while I think about it and worry about it?Why am I so timid?
After a long period of mental struggle, I finally compromised with my cowardice.I returned to the place where I was standing with the things in despair and continued to distribute them.

When it was almost noon, Taozi suddenly sent me a WeChat message asking where my family lived.After I gave him the approximate location of my home, he told me that there was an opportunity to go to a city forest park for distribution, which was relatively close to my home, and asked me if I would like to go there.I answered yes without hesitation, because there are too many benefits for me to go there.

First of all, it is very close to my house, and I can take the bus directly back to my grandma's house for dinner after get off work.Secondly, it is an area that I am relatively familiar with, and the people are not as messy as here.The most important point is that this forest park is very big, even if they are really not afraid to come here for inspection, it is not easy to find someone accurately, which is very beneficial to my paddling.

Taozi told me that I could go there now, and that it would be good to have lunch and rest and start working again in the afternoon.The normal lunch break time is from one o'clock to two o'clock in the afternoon. Now I think I can have lunch earlier and have more rest time.I looked up the bus route to go there on the mobile phone map and found that several buses near here can get there.

I got on the bus to City Forest Park.In the car, I took out my mobile phone to watch the news in the work group.Taozi has reported to the amusement park the list of people who will go to the city forest park to distribute leaflets, and has sent me and another person who is also going there, and they want us to contact each other by ourselves.I took a look at another person who was going there together, his name was Yang Xiong.It is also Yang Xiong, I think getting acquainted with him is the biggest reward for me to do this job!He made me see for the first time what a real "part-time fried dough stick" is!
When the car arrived, I got out of the car.I sent a WeChat message to Yang Xiong asking when he would be there, he said about 10 minutes, and he said that I can post a little while and take two more photos for storage.If you don't want to post, then find a cool place to sit and rest until he arrives before acting together.

I took a walk in the park, tasting the humid air by the river.The weather was fine and comfortable.Many young couples took their children and their families to sit on the lawn and have a picnic.Some even set up small tents and cradle swings.There are also many parents who take their children to fish and catch shrimps by the river.In short, there are indeed many adults who are taking their children to do various parent-child activities.I think that's why they asked the two of us to come here to issue the bill.

While walking, I sent out a few leaflets and fans from time to time, and after taking a few photos that met the requirements, I found a seat in the shade under a bridge near the river to sit down and wait.

About ten minutes later, Yang Xiong sent me a message saying that he had arrived.He initiated location sharing to me. After I opened the sharing, I found that he was very close to me, and the path was just a straight line.I followed the sharing route, and I recognized him at a glance not far away, because he was standing there with the fan we distributed, and the big cloth in his hand The pockets are also full of the same fans.

Yang Xiong is about 1.8 meters tall and wears a pair of glasses.He was wearing a suit of dark blue sportswear. The style of the sportswear was very old, the kind that was popular many years ago.He looked old, felt like he was 37, eight or early forties, but I knew he wasn't that old.

I walked up to him and greeted him, and he nodded.The midday sun was shining on his face, and he frowned to block the blinding light as if he didn't appreciate it.He took out a cigarette and asked me if I smoked, I waved my hand and told him I wouldn't.

While lighting the fire, he said: "It won't be good! Then don't learn it, it will hurt your body and cost money."

His voice is low.The cigarettes he smoked were very cheap, less than ten yuan for a pack.

Just as I was about to ask him if he had lunch, he asked me first, "Are you hungry?"

I replied that it was fine.He went on to say, "Should I finish the work first and then go to eat, or go to eat now?"

I'm a little confused, finished the job?Isn't that just off work?

Before I could ask, he continued, "This kind of work, to put it bluntly, is all about how easy it is! Yesterday I played in the Internet cafe all day."

I asked him how long the job had been going on, and he told me it had been over a week.I nodded and asked him if he would come out to work part-time every rest day.

He glanced at me proudly and said to me: "Jobs? I've quit several times!" He didn't talk much, and he didn't have a rich expression. He was relatively quiet, and he didn't have much passion and fighting spirit.

I nodded and didn't make a sound. He told me that if he has a suitable part-time job now, he will come out and do it.

Yang Xiong took me to the open-air parking lot outside the park and taught me how to insert leaflets in the car, and how to take pictures so that the entire row of bicycles with leaflets inserted can be photographed and the leaflets can be seen clearly.

He put the single pages in the handle in the direction of the cockpit of the car or under the wiper on the window.Insert four or five cars in the same row and find an angle not far away to take those few cars with single pages together in the photo. It looks like a whole row of cars has been inserted into the advertisement leaflet Same, perfect and visual.

Yang Xiong's location and camera angle are super good, and the single pages that can be seen in the photos are so clear.I don't know whether he is talented, but his creative talent is first-rate when it comes to taking pictures in cars.

Professor Yang Xiong, I take pictures with the original camera in my mobile phone instead of the watermark camera.Just put the photo into the watermark camera and modify the time and location before it needs to be sent to the work group.I also learned from him that the time and location of the watermark camera can be modified.I have never been exposed to this software before, nor have I studied it carefully.At this moment, I began to have doubts about the working attitude of all part-timers.

After the two of us took more than a dozen photos, Yang Xiong asked me if there were any photos left when I first arrived here.I looked at the phone photo album and said there were four or five photos.He told me that I don't need to shoot any more, that's enough, let's eat.

Although this place is very close to my home, it is very big. In addition, it is along the river and the viaduct. I really don't know where there are fast food restaurants around.Yang Xiong said it doesn't matter, just follow him.

Yang Xiong had already reported the news of meeting me in the work group.The staff in the playground all recognize him very much and trust him very much. They are very relieved to have him around if they want him to take me to work hard.Note that it is the playground, not Taozi.I was shocked!His real working time is less than half of the day, but he can win unanimous approval from the top and bottom, which is amazing.A lazy, slippery, dawdling person pretends to be a down-to-earth, hard-working and honest person to win everyone's trust.He changed my understanding of the term "fritters".It also started to make me look at this seemingly inconspicuous person in front of me with admiration!
Yang Xiong took me to a nearby community. He said he knew there was a waste collection station nearby. Let's dispose of these leaflets and fans first, and pack lightly.In the afternoon, find an Internet cafe or a cool place to stay, and just wait until get off work.

After walking for a while, there was indeed a waste collection station in front.Yang Xiong went in and asked the boss how much a catty of waste paper was. After the boss said a number, he bargained with the boss for a few words. The boss agreed to give a little more, and we put all the single pages on the scale.Yang Xiong pulled out six or seven single pages before the boss weighed them, rolled them up and handed them to me, saying to keep them for later use.

After weighing, Yang Xiong took out some of his fans and mine as spares, then threw the rest on the ground and asked the boss how to recycle these plastics.The boss said a number, and Yang Xiong waved his hand with a nonchalant expression to say that's it.I really didn't expect that his "oil" is not only in work, but also in all aspects.People like him can fill their stomachs very skillfully in life, but they can only stay at the most basic level, whether it is work or life.

After all, I was too young and naive.It never occurred to me that the important thing that was originally needed for work would be sold for six yuan by him.He gave me three one-dollar coins.I said no, just keep it.But she insisted on giving it to me, and said to me: "Oh! The purpose of going out is to make money! Although this is not a lot of money, it is not easy for anyone! Take it, and save it for the car to buy water."

When he said this, I had no choice but to accept the three coins.

Yang Xiong continued to take me for a few steps and came to a particularly inconspicuous location.But here, there is a fast food truck!

"There are few places to eat here, and the restaurants are all big hotels. There are almost no fast food restaurants. Let's just have a bite here." He spoke slowly, and his speaking speed was always the same, no matter whether he was in a hurry or not It's all the same tone and speed.It was the same when I first met me, it was the same when I was haggling with the owner of the junk shop, and it was the same when I was buying fast food.

The weather was very hot in the afternoon, so I bought a salad with cold skin.Yang Xiong bought a serving of noodles.

After lunch, Yang Xiong asked me if I had my ID card and if I wanted to go to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet.I said I didn't bring it.So, we went to sit and rest in a large foreign fast food chain store next to a nearby gas station.When Yang Xiong asked me to edit the photo, he also edited it together.The time is easy to modify, send two pictures to the work group every half hour, preferably later than the time shown on the photo.But it is absolutely not allowed to send it early. Sending it earlier than the time shown in the photo means that it will be ruined.

I asked Yang Xiong if someone would come here to check on the two of us in the afternoon.He said probably not, who would come all the way here in such a hot afternoon just to have a look at us?Even if they did come, they might not be able to find it because it's so big here. The two of us will make a detour under the bridge when the time comes, and we'll have time to rush there first.

When he said that, I was relieved.Goofing off with him is much more reassuring than doing it by myself.One is that there is someone to accompany it, and it is also a "fried dough stick" that has a lot of weight in the examiner's heart.Another point, as Yang Xiong said, this place is far and big.As the saying goes, "the sky is high and the emperor is far away", it is convenient to be lazy.

Sitting there with the air conditioner blowing comfortably, I chatted with Yang Xiong a lot.He is 31 years old, a local, and his family lives not far from the playground.He has done a lot of part-time jobs and is very familiar with this city, no wonder he can find everything there.He is also very familiar with Taozi. He has done many part-time jobs with Taozi, and he has never released pigeons or been late.But when working, especially when facing the boss, the side that is presented is always a real, hard-working, hard-working image.Therefore, it has won unanimous praise and trust from Taozi and the employer.

He also talked about some of his work experience after graduating from technical secondary school.He has limited education, neither likes to watch the news nor go out, and has never been out of the province so far.The vision and thinking are also relatively narrow and single.

Yang Xiong also asked some questions about me.He said to me: "You are young! That's great. You must work hard and fight hard."

I told him that he could actually find a normal job and live a good life at work.He said that there are too many young people in this society now, and everything is updated very quickly. People of his age have already begun to be eliminated by this society.His requirements for himself are very simple, to have food to eat, to play games, to be with his family, to be healthy and healthy, as long as he is full and the whole family is not hungry.As for the others... I have already lost confidence in myself.

He and I sat there for an afternoon. The playground saw the photos we posted and praised us for doing a good job, and asked us to post more in the work group.I thought it was ridiculous, and I couldn't help but feel that Yang Xiong was really amazing.His photo posing was so successful that he was able to make those over there feel excited across the screen.But here comes the problem, we don't have enough photos in stock.

Yang Xiong calmly took out the spare leaflets and fans he took out when selling scraps and said to me: "Let's go! Let's take pictures. After taking pictures, go home directly from get off work."

I checked the time, it was just after four o'clock.Yang Xiong said it doesn't matter, no one will come to check at this time.

Yang Xiong walked to the parking lot, inserted the few single pages into several cars in the same row and started taking pictures.After shooting, take the single pages out of the car one by one and find another row of cars to continue shooting.In this way, after we took five or six photos, Yang Xiong took those single pages in his hand and led me into the park.He told me that he would distribute all the remaining single pages to passers-by, so I just took a picture of him when he distributed them to passers-by.After I finish the photoshoot, I will send out those fans, and let him take pictures of me, so that the photos of both of us are enough, and there are more proofs of serious work.I learned "knowledge" from him again.

After all the shooting, we took a selfie at the gate of the park.This is not a group photo, nor is it a friendship that lasts forever.Instead, it is reserved for clocking in after get off work.When going to work, they will be required to send a selfie with time to clock in at the business district, and it is no exception when leaving get off work.

When we walked to the station, it was only a little more than 04:30, which was a full hour earlier than the normal time to get off work!The car I wanted to take arrived earlier than Yang Xiong's.When I said goodbye to Yang Xiong, he reminded me that the photos should be sent according to the scheduled time, don't forget.I nodded, waved, and got on the bus home.

On this day, I thought about a lot of things in the car, and of course I have today's work.What are businesses hiring us for?Human flesh loose orders, advertising.But what is the effect?Are people other than me and Yang Xiong working seriously?I don't think so, the high probability may not be much less lazy than the two of us.But the merchants are well aware of this and should try to promote it, or do they really think that we are working hard?

A few days later, I still mentioned this matter when I was having dinner with Lao Zhao.Lao Zhao smiled and said to me: "If our brothers are going to do business in the future, don't hire someone to distribute leaflets. I would rather spend more money on advertising! Otherwise, I will hire all lazy workers."

In fact, I sent flyers with Yang Xiong again like this for a day, and met several times in other unrecorded part-time activities, and until now I still occasionally hear about him.He is still working part-time as before, and he still has no passion and no hope in his heart.Earn little money, spend little money.But this is his own life, in his world, he is full and happy.Although I don't know if he's really happy, if he ever thought about getting his passion back.

Everyone has the right to choose the way they want to live, isn't it?
