Chapter Thirty-Eight: Still So Sad
The familiar environment is familiar with them, but they are the only ones who have lost themselves. No matter how high the position is, what about the high salary? Behind the glamorous appearance, he is inferior to no one now.
There are still a few minutes before the company's start to work, and colleagues are starting to enter the company one after another, and gossip is of course their favorite pastime.
Zhang Yang is really good, he was the latest to enter the company, but he got the highest salary in the same level. Now he has been promoted again and has become the second-in-command of the department. Is he hanging? I really don't know what he's capable of?
Listening to the chatter, Zhang Yang pretended not to hear it, quickened his pace, and stayed away from the hustle and bustle. Let that grief be thousands, let that gossip, be yourself! Even if you have a thousand difficulties, he will not give a penny. Maybe fighting for them is what they should do in this position. It is also to win their respect and recognition!
In the office, Gao Dashang was still looking at the expenses during this time, and in the past two years, there has been almost no change.
Zhang Yang walked into the tall manager's room with yesterday's sketch.
Manager Gao, I plan to invite all my colleagues to a light meal tonight. If you don't have an urgent project, you won't be working overtime today!
Here's a map of my workshop where I described it in detail.
Gao Dashang took the document, a hand-drawn floor plan, although it was not very concise, but it could be seen clearly, and he read the detailed decomposition description. He kept nodding his head and said, yes, so that the space will not be so crowded.
Yesterday, I talked to HR about the salary increase plan, there is basically no problem, you can give them a breather.
Good. Do you still need to work overtime tonight?
Let's take a break tonight, and just hurry up tomorrow. Gao Dashang paused for a moment and continued, you go down and hold a meeting for them, and explain to them about your application for a salary increase for them.
Remember, it's important to let them know why the raise is going on, and I don't want the increase to be as efficient as it is now. I hope you don't let me down!" Gao Dashang said very seriously.
Okay, got it. Zhang Yang turned around and left, a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, they used to get along with each other at the same level. It's still a little nervous to suddenly appear as a leader.
Hey, what's the nervousness? I've been on the verge of life and death, is this point worth being nervous about? Thinking about the previous bits and pieces, these things really don't matter.
Everyone came over for a meeting, Zhang Yang clapped his palms and shouted.
Hearing the movement, everyone slowly walked towards this side. Somebody is complaining: Isn't it just two days after the morning meeting?
Zhang Yang knows that they don't like to hear about those things, 5S, quality, and efficiency. I didn't bother to say anything about this kind of thing, I just didn't hear it.
Everyone stood up, Zhang Yang cleared his throat and said. Glance around with your eyes. The team can still see the past.
Well, I won't say much nonsense, maybe some people are a little unconvinced, but I, the latest person to come, sit in this position. Maybe I'm lucky, maybe I'm really serious. Whatever it is, that's in the past. Zhang Yang did not have the power of a tiger or a fake tiger, nor was he humble and timid, and said with a calm attitude.
The people below, although some were not convinced, did not shout. They were all waiting to see Zhang Yang's jokes, and he was nervous and watched him speak incoherently. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yang seemed so confident and natural.
Zhang Yang went on to say that in the future, I will lead everyone to create a better honor, a higher salary, and a better environment.
Cut, what you say is better than what you sing, someone took the lead and said, there was an uproar below in an instant, do something practical, who can't brag, what the hell is honor, and raising wages is the right way. All kinds of discussions, like thousands of words mosquitoes buzzing there.
Zhang Yang, with his hands behind his back, stood there without speaking, nor did he breathe, quietly watching their performance.
The discussion slowly stopped.
It's not that far away, and it's not that hard. A salary increase is inevitable, and I have already discussed it with the senior manager. But... Zhang Yang paused, raised his tone and said, I also hope that everyone can show their own abilities and responsibilities. Otherwise, a salary increase, it can only be talked.
Everyone is an adult, and no one is stupid. I'll just speak openly. Everyone thinks that the salary is low, so they always put off the tasks that can be completed until overtime. I know this very well, and Manager Gao naturally knows it too. It's just that I'm considerate of everyone, so I turn a blind eye.
No one in the team below spoke, just lowered their heads. Escape from Zhang Yang's gaze, and also escape from the ** fact, this cannot be refuted, this is the case.
I know that you don't want to procrastinate so much, you also want to rest, you want to go on dates, and you want to have time with your wife and children. So, I've proposed to all of you a raise, by the size of one day off a week, and the pay is a little bit higher than before. This will be beneficial to you and to the department.
Everyone's eyes are shining, and the discussion is starting again, is this true?
Calm down, I'm sure you have the ability, but you must not delay, it's an honor for us as a team, and it's also in the interest of a team. If you still want to be in this state, today's meeting should be dismissed as if it had never been held.
None of the people in the team left, and it was clear that everyone was willing to get a raise.
Very well, then we will work together, and in the scope of our ability, we just try our best to do our own work, it's not difficult. Can you do it? If you can, tell me out loud like a man!" Zhang Yang said loudly.
The sound of brushing is deafening, "can"
Very well, I hope you will remember today's words. Well, take it easy.
I've already said hello to Manager Gao, I don't have to work overtime tonight, I invite everyone to go down to the restaurant. In the future, I will have to rely on my brothers to cooperate. I'll ask the manager to submit the salary increase to HR later. Meeting!
Raise salary, go to the restaurant, no need to work overtime, ~ a cheer spread throughout the workshop. Oh, this is a rare thing to see in ten years, cool crooked...
For an ordinary part-time worker, what a happy and happy scene, promotion and salary increase, everyone is happy. Zhang Yang's heart is like a knife, even if he earns a lot, it is still not enough to fill the hole he dug. When is this going to be the head?
It wasn't until I was so down-and-out that I understood how happy it was to be ordinary.
Director Zhang can, he said that the salary increase will be given to the brothers, now I can convince you, the previous salary increase was drizzle, but this time it is more powerful. Zhao Zijing said with sincerity on his face.
This is what everyone deserves, everyone's strength and technology, I know, it's just that your laziness has covered up all your advantages.
Don't say it, it seems to be really like that, Zhao Zi said respectfully.
Zhang Yang knew in his heart that they could raise their salaries this time, but they were really worth the price, and they were also leaders in the industry in terms of technology. I'm just doing a boat push.
The happiness of others deeply stung Zhang Yang. It's not that I have a small heart and can't tolerate others to be happy and sad. Instead, I looked at those smiling faces like flowers, and those gambles came to mind, and I kept blaming myself in my heart, why I didn't leave the game when I won, why I didn't stop immediately when I lost a little. Why is there still a fluke to be able to return to the capital, why do you say again and again that you will stop if you lose this one. I lied to myself again and again, until I ran out of ammunition and food, until I ran out of mountains and rivers, until I had no friends, and until I was desperate......
Is death the only end of gambling? Zhang Yang asked himself in his heart, is it true that everyone who is involved in gambling will experience a purgatory that is worse than death?
Don't be a weak husband and die, it can only mean that you are a coward, afraid of other people's accusations, afraid of tiredness, afraid of shouldering responsibilities. Hold back, and it will all pass. In a few years, you'll be looking like you. If you die, all you will leave behind is a piece of chicken feathers. will also become a gambler and a scumbag referred to by thousands of people. Other people's jokes will be remembered for thousands of years.
It's still work, Zhang Yang put himself into busyness. Labor is the best cure for all sorrows, and it is true. Time will make up for what you owe!
The busy time always goes fast, and before you know it, you are about to get off work. Zhang Yang thought, where are you going to eat? Eh, the one where Zhao Zijing invited guests last time tasted good. Let me go down and ask Zhao Zijing, if you have a phone number, make a reservation first, and you can start the meal after work.
Lao Zhao, the restaurant where you invited everyone to dinner last time, does it have a contact number? If so, it will be there tonight!
Yes, I'll send you the number. Zhao Zijing said
Okay, you can send it over.
As soon as he finished speaking, he received the number from Zhao Zijing, so Zhang Yang called and asked about the price. I think it's pretty much the same, and it's acceptable. I remember that the last time I ate it, the portion was still relatively full, and I quoted a table of about 500 for 12 dishes, and ordered two tables.
