Post-2000 boss: You can be late up to seven days a week!

Chapter 55 This is not called layoffs, this is called delivering talents to society!
Inside the office.

Shen Xu looked at the other list on the table.

That is the list of older employees compiled by the human resources department.

Above are all employees over 35 years old.

Looking at the familiar names in front of him, Shen Xu's eyes showed a trace of unbearability.

These employees were once the mainstay of the company and made great contributions to the company.

Shen Xu looked at the list of employees in front of him and gradually became immersed in it, his face full of emotion.

But the human resources department employee standing nearby had a normal look on his face.

He has seen the same scene at least three or four times.

Shen Xu stood up slowly, holding the list in his hand, and looked out the window sadly.

"They are all people who have made great contributions to the company!"

When the personnel in the personnel department heard what Shen Xu said, they were suddenly startled and looked towards Shen Xu.

"Mr. Shen, then..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Xu's eyes suddenly turned sharp. He looked at the employee in the human resources department and changed the subject:

"It's a pity that the company is not a charity hall. If the company wants to develop, it must make a profit!"

"I think they should understand the principle of survival of the fittest through natural selection..."

"When the time comes, remember to give them some subsidies and one month's salary..."

"Ok!"

Shen Xu handed the list to the employee, and finally sighed helplessly.

His face couldn't help but feel a little sad and he said:

"This is the last thing the company can do for them!"

The employee from the HR department slowly walked out with the list in hand.

The photographer looked at Shen Xu curiously.

"Um, Mr. Shen, can I ask, why do you have to fire them when they reach 35 years old?"

He really couldn't figure it out, since Shen Xu said that these people had made great contributions to the company.

So why are they being fired now? Is it just because they are 35 years old?

When Shen Xu heard what the photographer said, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Then a trace of resentment immediately appeared on his face, and he looked at the camera.

"This kind of person is a worm in the company. What will he do if he doesn't fire him?"

"How can a normal employee, who works hard and makes progress, not be a leader at the age of 35?"

"Isn't this just because they are lazing around every day and don't want to work hard to get promoted?"

"If you work really hard, how can you still be working as an ordinary employee at the age of 35!"

Hearing Shen Xu's words, the photographer suddenly frowned.

Shen Xu continued to add:

"They don't even know how to be grateful. It's so hard to find a job now. Why are you trying to fish out of me?"

"Let them go out and experience it, and they will know how hard-earned my work here is!"

"Besides, strictly speaking, it's not called dismissal, it's called optimization of the company and delivering talents to society!"

"Each of them was developed through my actual combat experience. Although it is a bit outdated now, the previous industry experience is still there. Doesn't this convey talents to society?"

Although I felt a little weird in my heart, I couldn't put it into words.

In the studio, the masters all agreed when they heard Shen Xu's words.

"Boss Shen's words are very insightful. If a person works really hard, how can he remain in the employee position without promotion?"

"That's right! Today's young people are just too impetuous. After working hard for three or two days and feeling like there is no progress, they start to fail. Little do they know that work is like life, a marathon!"

"Indeed, I think Boss Shen's business philosophy is very good. The big wave washes away the sand, and not only implements the last elimination system, but also delivers outstanding talents to the society, killing two birds with one stone. This is called the pattern of entrepreneurs!" After listening to Shen Xu, the audience explanation, at this moment my mind is the same as that of the photographer.

I always felt that what he said made sense, but I also felt that something was strange.

[It seems that there are very few people who cannot be junior leaders at the age of 35, right? 】

【Yes!Even if you don't have much ability, after so many years in the company, it's still not a problem to be a small leader, right? 】

[If you haven’t been able to become a junior leader for so long, then it’s really your own problem, right? 】

[The problem is that people have been working on the front line for so long, and then they turn around and lay off people. How can we talk about optimizing talents? 】

【…】

Although the audience can understand Shen Xu's approach, they still feel disdainful of Shen Xu's so-called excuse of "transporting talents to society."

As the photographer moved, the camera left the president's office.

Transferred to the lobby of Tengxiang Game Company.

This is an office large enough to accommodate nearly a hundred people.

However, there was dead silence in the huge office.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the list in the man's hand.

At this moment, someone has quietly packed up the table and put on his backpack.

The photographer looked at the employee in front of him with thinning hair and an unusual hairline, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Although the man in front of him had a hairstyle like that of a strong man, his face also looked weathered.

The photographer couldn't help but be curious and looked at the sullen employee in front of him.

He said comfortingly:
"Brother, maybe it's your turn to be laid off yet? Why did you pack your things in advance?"

When the middle-aged man in front of him heard the photographer's question, he just shook his head helplessly and sighed.

"We don't have to wait any longer. I just celebrated my 35th birthday two months ago. I must be on the list of layoffs this time..."

His name is Zhang Chen, and he has been an employee almost since the company was founded.

Following Shen Xu, he went through many projects. It can be said that every project independently developed by the company has his shadow.

However, in the past year or two, Shen Xu began to lay off employees continuously, laying off all the old employees who were in the same period as him.

He also recognized the facts clearly. Now that he is 35 years old, he still cannot escape the fate of being laid off.

However, I have been working hard in the industry for so many years.

With his qualifications, he can still hold a planning and creative position in some small game companies.

As for others, they are not so lucky.

Zhang Chen looked pityingly at the other employees who had put away their backpacks like him, and sighed helplessly.

The photographer also took this opportunity to ask questions that he had been curious about for a long time.

"Speaking of which, bros, this company lays off employees who are over 35 years old. Why?"

Although he can definitely find the answer to this question from Shen Xu.

But how come the answers for capitalists and workers are the same?

Compared with Shen Xu's answer, the photographer wanted to hear the answer from fellow migrant worker Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen sighed. He had been laid off now anyway, so he had nothing to fear.

Looking at the camera in front of him, he slowly told the reason.

“It’s not like this in our industry, it’s like this in most industries.”

"The age of 35 is a hurdle for a person. After the age of 35, the human body's functions begin to deteriorate significantly!"

"Especially for game programmers like us, who stay up late every day, the heart load has already reached the limit. If you die suddenly in the company, the company will not only lose money, but also cover up public opinion."

"With this overtime method, many people's bodies are already overwhelmed, so we can only optimize the older employees and supplement them with younger people who are stronger."
