Reborn back to 1986

Chapter 529 The SARS Incident (2)
Things in this world are so wonderful, sometimes power and money can solve everything, but sometimes these two are nothing but scum.Especially when the disease strikes like this and the public feels that their safety is threatened, no one wants to bear the consequences of death.Accepting isolation is a responsibility to yourself and to others.

The public security personnel pulled up the isolation belt around the building in the morning, when most of the residents in the building had just woken up.At that time, Le Xiaodong came back from running, washed up and was about to go out.Knowing that he was quarantined, he called Li Yan immediately, and the two made an appointment to eat steamed buns for breakfast.

When Li Yan received the call, she jumped in panic, and rushed over after taking a taxi.When she arrived, there were already a lot of people standing outside the building, and the noisy atmosphere around her was so depressing that people couldn't breathe.

Le Xiaodong stood in front of the window and called her. The two of them looked at each other tens of meters away, and finally experienced the feeling of being a Cowherd and a Weaver Girl.

Compared with the anxiety of relatives and friends outside the quarantine zone, the quarantined people are under tremendous pressure while losing their freedom, worrying that they will never be able to get out of here again.At this time, it would be better if the whole family were quarantined, at least they could comfort each other and take care of each other.If you are alone, you will feel even more difficult.

I want to know how bad Le Xiaodong's mood will be at this time. Li Yan stands outside the isolation zone anxiously like an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth uncontrollably.I have never felt so regretful like this moment, why did I choose to go to L City instead of staying in D City.In that case, at least she can understand some of the situation, and she won't be as blind as she is now, and don't know anything about it.

As if sensing her panic, Le Xiaodong called: "Don't worry, you're fine. It's already past eight o'clock, you hurry to eat, didn't you still remember the meat buns yesterday, go and eat? Go to work after eating, and I'll call you later?"

Holding the phone, Li Yan looked at the person standing in front of a certain window in the building in front, and said, "I don't even want to eat steamed stuffed buns, even if you give me dragon meat, I won't let it go? Oh, that's right." , You haven't eaten breakfast yet, you wait." After hanging up the phone, he turned around and ran out like a whirlwind.

Le Xiaodong maintained the original posture and stood by the window, watching her run out of the community and hailed a taxi, she disappeared in a flash, slowly put away the phone, and went back to the house silently.

Li Yan took a taxi to the bun shop near the Second Courtyard, bought a bag of meat buns, then went to the vegetable market, bought every food imaginable, took a taxi and returned to the community.Only after seeing the long and eye-catching isolation belt did I realize that I couldn't get in at all.

The public security officers stopped her, asked the person in charge to take the things after asking about the situation, and told her and the surrounding people standing outside the isolation that there would be a special person in charge of delivering daily necessities to the people in the building so that they would not have to worry about it. Worry.

Within 10 minutes, Li Yan's cell phone rang, and Le Xiaodong called to tell her that she had received the buns and vegetables to reassure her, stop standing outside and go to work quickly.

After being flustered for a while, Li Yan also calmed down. She also knew that the more she was at this time, the more she couldn't confuse herself, which would only make the people inside even more anxious.After thinking about this, she took a deep breath, and said to Le Xiaodong on the other end of the phone in a relaxed and peaceful tone: "Okay then, I'll go to work right away. Make some gruel yourself, Eat breakfast. Let’s see what to make at noon. The vegetables I just bought from the market are very fresh. I’ll come back after work. We’ll discuss what we want to eat at night. If you feel bored, take a look TV discs, just call me if you want someone to talk to?"

"Okay, I get it, don't be nagging like an old lady, go quickly, and be careful that Mr. Guo deducts your bonus for this month if it's too late?"

"Well, don't say anything, let's go." Li Yan hung up the phone, took another look, and then turned and left.

It was already past nine o'clock when she arrived at the company, so she was obviously late.Several colleagues asked her why she was late, and she just made up an excuse saying that the traffic jam on the road was prevaricated, and no one asked.

If you put it in the usual way, there might be good things to ask, but now everyone is not in that mood, and they are all thinking about their own things.

The impact of the SARS epidemic is almost all-round, especially the catering and entertainment venues are the most serious, and many places have been strictly closed.Densely populated places such as factories, mines, companies, and enterprises are also disinfected several times a day, and body surface temperature is checked when entering and leaving.And that's not all that's causing panic.

Since the outbreak of the epidemic, all walks of life have been affected to varying degrees, and the overall performance has shown a downward trend.Enterprises have no business, workers have no work to do, and the overall income cannot afford expenditures. This is a very serious matter.No boss would be willing to spend money to support a bunch of idlers.It's okay if it's just a short period of one month or two months, but no one knows how long this situation will last, what if it continues?No one dares to play this guarantee.

Even the most generous boss will not spend a lot of money to make up for the fiscal deficit.In order to reduce expenses, some enterprises have already paid wages according to a percentage, and some have already started layoffs.

For a large company like Jinwu Group, layoffs seem to have become an inevitable trend.However, who will stay and who will stay has become a big problem.

In addition to worrying about the SARS virus, you also have to worry about whether you can keep your job. These two things have caused the root cause of the staff's lack of energy.

After hearing the news that the company was about to lay off employees, Li Yan didn't pay much attention to it. At present, her focus is all on Le Xiaodong who has been quarantined, while the others have the idea of ​​being shattered.

As the leader of the entire group, Guo Wuhuai finally gave a layoff plan with only four words 'survival of the fittest'. All departments adopted a method of treating people equally, competed in ability and business level, and laid off employees proportionally through assessment.Those with poor grades leave, and those with good grades stay, that's it.

Li Yan didn't know about other departments, but the budget department offered nine places.As Zheng Haiyang's immediate boss, the distribution ratio is very fair.Three for civil engineering, two for plumbing and two for electrical.This is almost half of the total number of people, and the intensity of layoffs cannot be described as ruthless.

However, this is justifiable. Judging from the current situation, as long as the company can maintain the basic operation of the company without any problems, other things can't be asked too much.

Li Yan, one of the three budget clerks, has a [-]/[-] possibility of being laid off.The other two have the same chance as her, so there is nothing to say.

In terms of strength alone, Li Yan thought that she was no worse than the other two, but when it came to the competition, she couldn't possibly be the one who lost.However, sometimes it is not entirely strength that decides whether to win or lose, but also luck.
