Chapter 1 Funeral Home Job Search
My name is Yang Kui, and I majored in clothing and makeup design in college.
After graduating, I joined a costume drama group in a well-known film and television city through the relationship of my mentor, but just halfway through the filming, the producer made the director's daughter-in-law's belly bigger, and the two sides had a big battle, which led to the suspension of the crew, the miscarriage of the project, and I lost my job.
I didn't want to trouble my mentor anymore, so I interviewed a lot of crews, but they disliked my lack of experience in making films and turned me away.
With the extension of the unemployment period, the wallet is almost empty, I wanted to call the family to support a little, but the house leak happened to be a rainy day, before I could speak, the father on the other end of the phone said that he broke his leg while cycling, which made the family even worse, and asked me to call 2,000 yuan next month to go home for emergency.
I hung up the phone, laughing and crying for a while, walking along the path in the direction of the rental house, all I thought about was looking for a job to make money, and I stepped on a steaming piece of shit carelessly.
"Damn, it's bad luck, I stepped on such a stinky shit, I hope it can bring shit ......luck," I teased as I rubbed the shit on my shoes onto the lawn.
"Job hunting, domestic nanny, all kinds of high-paying jobs are available, don't miss it when you pass by......"
The melodious shouting attracted my attention.
When I looked up, there was an agency job search center more than ten meters away from me, and there were three or five young men and women standing outside the door, pointing at the billboard.
With the mentality of taking a look, I took a step and walked over, only to see the large advertising board at the door full of various positions, some are factory workers, some are nanny cleaners, and I hurriedly glanced at it, but I didn't see a job suitable for me.
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, the intermediary boss took out an advertising board with a few lines of big words written on it: The city funeral home recruits makeup artists, the benefits are first-class, there is more money and less work and no overtime, one employment, and lifelong benefits.
As soon as the advertising board landed, the young men and women scattered in a hurry, and I walked half a beat slower because of the dog shit still stuck to the soles of my feet, and I was pulled by the intermediary boss.
"Young man, are you looking for a job? This job is very good, there is a lot of money and little work, and the monthly salary is at least this amount!" the boss of the agency stretched out three fingers and dangled in front of my eyes.
"Thirty thousand?" I heard that the funeral home salary was high, but I didn't expect it to be so high, so I need to make sure.
The boss of the intermediary saw that I was moved, and said very firmly: "That's right, 30,000 yuan is still after-tax income, sometimes higher, at the beginning of the year, I sent in a person, people buy a car in half a year, buy a house in a year." ”
Although I am very short of money now, I am still a little frightened when I see the word funeral home, after all, I have never been to that place since I was a child.
The boss of the intermediary saw my scruples, patted me on the shoulder, and persuaded me: "What are you afraid of when you are young, there are so many people working in the funeral home, aren't they all good?
I have to say that I somewhat agreed with the words of the intermediary boss, and immediately asked: "This unit is not easy for ordinary people to enter, right? ”
The intermediary boss patted his chest and promised: "Not really, but don't worry, as long as you want, everything is on me." Young people listen to my advice, the most terrible thing in the world is poverty, not those ethereal things, you taste carefully, is this the truth. ”
The last sentence of the intermediary boss really pierced my heart, yes, what I lack most now is money, and the most important thing is courage, people are poor and bold, anyway, I am a single person who feeds the whole family and is not hungry.
I took out a resume from my backpack and handed it to the agency boss, who glanced at it hurriedly and said excitedly: "Hey, the clothing and makeup design major I studied just happened to match this position, you prepare for it, and I will take you to the interview later." ”
"Ah, so fast!" I opened my mouth in shock, and I couldn't react for a moment.
Dingdingding......
A few text messages came in the mobile phone, clicked on it, it turned out to be a credit card reminder message, I looked up to the sky and sighed: "Hey, providence, I'll go to an interview with you, it's nothing great, not bold and not prolific, let it out." ”
When the boss of the agency saw that I had made up my mind, he couldn't help but applaud, turned around and went back to the store to clean up, and rode on a broken electric donkey to drive me straight to the funeral home.
When I arrived at the door of the funeral home, I happened to meet a group of crying mourners coming out, which made my heart beat a drum, and I really wanted to turn around and leave, but when I thought about it, I was too poor to open the pot, and I was a little bolder.
The boss of the agency led me into the personnel office with ease, exchanged a few words with the personnel sister, and handed over my resume directly.
The eldest sister of personnel glanced at the resume, turned her head to look at me carefully for a few seconds, and then shouted: "Yes, quite energetic guy, I just don't know how to go?"
I'm a little confused, since graduation, I have interviewed a lot of units, and for the first time, I was asked what the eight characters of my birthday are, is there any statement behind this?
When I was a child, I heard the old people in the village say that only those who are tough enough can engage in the funeral industry, otherwise they may lose their lives.
I didn't reply, I turned around and left, but I was stopped by the intermediary, pointed to the parking lot not far away, and whispered: "See, those are all employees' cars, can you find one under 100,000 yuan?"
I was speechless for a while, looking at the mid-to-high-end cars all over the ground, my temper suddenly softened, and I turned around to report my birthday to the people.
Personnel made a few calculations on the paper, and exclaimed: "Providence, young man, you were born for the funeral home, the eight characters are positive and hard, this job belongs to you." ”
Hearing this, I looked blank, all as if she was saying polite words, it's really not easy these days, does the funeral home have to draw cakes when recruiting people?
The agent sent me out of the door and said that I should go shopping, I almost couldn't help scolding my mother, this is a funeral home, not a shopping mall, where can I go there.
A few minutes later, the agent smiled and pushed the door out, and the first thing he saw me was that I was hired.
I was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: ", can you still play like this, I haven't even talked to her about salary and benefits, so you can help me set it?" ”
The intermediary pouted and explained: "Don't be angry, there are some things that don't need to be discussed, the salary at the beginning of work is fixed, three thousand a month, all insurances are paid on time, and you also have gifts from others during the New Year's holidays, and ah, there is food and accommodation here." ”
"Food, shelter?" I looked around, only to feel a chill in my back, "I won't live here, besides, before I came, you told me that I had a monthly salary of at least 30,000, but just now you said that the monthly salary is 3,000, and you are too good at blowing." ”
I couldn't bear it anymore and walked towards the gate, and the agent hurriedly chased after me.
When I was about to walk out of the gate, I suddenly saw a woman dressed in black stuffing a large red envelope into the trouser pocket of a staff member, bulging with at least a few thousand yuan.
I stopped, the intermediary smiled at the corner of his mouth, pulled me out of the door, and said: "See, the person who took the red envelope just now was just an ordinary employee, and the position you interviewed for was a makeup artist, and it would definitely be more than him at that time, whether you came to work or not, you decide for yourself, anyway, after this village, there is no next store." ”
"The ticket for all evils, I'll just come. I clenched my fists and replied indignantly.
The agent nodded and added, "That's right, come here at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to report, remember to bring your graduation certificate and ID card." Another point is that you must wear a pair of red pants on the first day of employment, preferably new, don't ask why, just do what they say. ”
I couldn't laugh or cry, I just asked about my birthday, and now I ask for red pants to be hired, what are I going to do? Is it possible that I have to check the color of my pants tomorrow?
I stepped into the intermediary's electric car, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I remember, I hope I can make money, make a fortune in the future, and let you shine." ”
The intermediary smiled awkwardly and shook his head again and again: "Don't mind brother, you just need to make a fortune yourself, I won't touch this light." ”
The next day, I went to the funeral home as promised, and probably because it was early in the morning, there were almost no people in the vast courtyard, except for the large chimney with white smoke.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the eldest sister of personnel came to the office, and after completing the formalities, the eldest sister led me to the dressing room to meet the master, saying that she would take me in the future.
Along the way, we met several staff members, who pointed at me from time to time, as if they were watching monkeys at a zoo, and their eyes were full of surprise and foreboding.
