After a few days, I was discharged from the hospital, and everything went back to the vicious cycle of submitting resumes online, interviewing, and waiting.

Within a week, I was forced to move back to the office of the small tube company on the couch for temporary accommodation. When I ate instant noodles for 7 days in a row (in the years that followed, I felt sick to my stomach when I saw instant noodles), my chance came.

It was a joint venture component factory of Nut Country in the Civil Aviation Zone, and we were responsible for producing more than 300 kinds of components according to the drawings, and then exporting them to Nut Country and Xizhou at a very low price, which was said to be to reduce tariffs, and the shareholders of Country C could only make a little hard-earned money.

The interviewer I was a well-dressed middle-aged woman from the East China Sea, who was the financial manager of the company.

The financial director, who thinks he has the qualification of a certified public accountant and has worked in the manufacturing industry in Bincheng for another year, is very calm on the surface.

In Bincheng, in order to formulate material quotas and working hour quotas, we also went deep into various workshops and processes for more than half a year, and the manual accounts also changed from the most basic current account accounting, to sales accounting, and finally to cost accounting. During this period, because he had no practical experience in finance, he also experienced white eyes and ridicule.

But a new test came: they used the most high-end ERP (enterprise management software) software.

I'm not very proficient in computers, and I've just been experimenting with Xiaoguan for 3 months, and I'm not proficient yet. Now I suddenly let you use high-end software that the four departments of supply, production, marketing, and finance operate on it at the same time, which is really an overestimation of my IQ.

"We need to recruit a financial supervisor, responsible for the review of the financial software terminal and the daily procurement and warehousing and warehouse management out of the audit, as well as the number of products, semi-finished products and finished products in various industrial workshops, by the way, the most important thing is the month-end manufacturing cost in the product, semi-finished products and finished products apportionment. ”

"Oh hey, isn't this a cost accountant? And nicely said, treasurer. I thought to myself.

"Do you think you're up to the task?" asked the middle-aged woman solemnly.

"Believe there is no problem. I replied because I needed the job so much.

The monthly salary is 5,000 yuan, and lunch also makes me have a strong doubt about the adage that "there is no free lunch in the world".

Compared to the salary in Bencheng, the buddy has doubled. Although this is still not in line with my value as a certified public accountant, it seems that I am only worth this price at the moment, right?

"Are you familiar with Excel?" the manager asked suddenly.

"It's okay. "My heart is empty.

I remember when I was with my girlfriend in Ben Thanh, I refused the invitation to learn excel from her because of my poor self-esteem, and now, the retribution of cowardice has come.

"Okay, you position this table at the very beginning and then jump to the end. The manager said calmly.

I clicked on the file, and I dropped a, tens of thousands of lines! The manager also stopped the mouse in the middle. Jumping to the beginning with the mouse is afraid of more than 10 seconds, and it is estimated that it will take more than 20 seconds from the beginning to the end.

Faced with such a question, my face turned red.

"Use ctrl+home to get to the top of the page," the manager expertly clicked on the keyboard, "Ctrl+end is at the end of the page." ”

"It's still not familiar. I answered honestly.

"Well, I guess you're still skilled in manual cost accounting. The manager comforted me and said.

"Yes. "I'm out of confidence.

After I came out of the management bank, my self-esteem has already taken a cold blow at 2 companies. I had to find ways to make up for a lot of practical knowledge, which also aroused my courage and blind optimism to create difficulties.

"Then you wait for the notice. The manager commanded lightly.

After coming out of the factory, looking at the garden-like factory area and the four-story office building hidden among the tall trees, I felt a little melancholy and lost, maybe I missed it.

At night, lying on the sofa in the small tube's office, I was a little worried. If this company is unsuccessful in applying for the job, do you really have to borrow living expenses from your old classmates with a cheeky face? Although he has repeatedly hinted to me that I can find him if I don't have enough money to spend.

That night, my girlfriend called and said that she was coming to Donghai from Ben Thanh in a month, and asked me how I was doing. I thought: God, bless me, don't be embarrassed in front of your girlfriend.

One night's heart, one leaf and one autumn.

The next day, September 11, 2001. Early in the morning, I received a call from the joint venture factory, and after a two-hour subway and bus ride, I finally arrived.

The re-examination was also very simple, the factory manager and the financial manager talked to me separately, saying that they really needed a financial supervisor urgently, and although I was not skilled enough, I believed in my learning ability.

At noon that day, I returned to the small tube company and was surprised to hear about the "terrorist attack" that occurred in a certain country, and at that time, I was looking at the scrolling pictures on TV, watching the collision of two planes, looking at the two buildings with thick smoke, and looking at the people jumping down dozens of floors, and sighed in my heart the fragility of life, which are all fresh lives!

Zhang Yadan was quietly crying on the side, maybe only women are really boundless love.

What if a country is as rich as a certain country? There are some indescribable thoughts in my heart.

But life has to go on.

On the weekend, I borrowed 6,000 yuan from Xiaoguan and my own money to rent a small two-bedroom old house in the Gumei community, which is 50 minutes away from the factory. After renting three and one bet, there was only 500 yuan left in the wallet.

This is an old room, an old sofa, an old bed, an old electrical appliance, an old curtain, think about the divorced me, it's also an old thing, right?

The neighborhood is old, but close to a small river. The neighborhood is full of greenery, some gym equipment, and there are a few rows of chairs near the river, which is also a good place to cool off in the evening.

At the time of the handover, I learned that the previous treasurer had resigned because the salary was too low.

With a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan, he does the most work and often works overtime. The financial manager has a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, and he doesn't work, and he makes small reports all day long.

Several salary adjustments were delayed by the manager saying that the supervisor was very satisfied with the current monthly salary, so he jumped to another German joint venture processing enterprise in a fit of anger with a monthly salary of 15,000 yuan.

In the days of handover, I took the time to learn from him, squeezed a little money out of my already modest wallet, and invited him to drink at night.

After drinking too much, he said to me inarticulately: "Brother, let's have a good heart! There are also bad people in foreign-funded enterprises, and they help foreigners to squeeze their compatriots. ”

I silently poured him a drink, and did not interject.

He burped and said, "We're okay and we can leave work on time at 11 p.m. every night." My classmate is in a joint venture, and the boss is a fireworks Chinese who likes to play Go online at night, and our executives strictly require all domestic employees to wait for the boss to leave after work. The boss lives in the factory dormitory, a few steps away. Several times he was so happy that he lost track of time, pitiful! Everyone didn't get home until 2 o'clock in the morning, and Lu Yuan had to get up again at 6 o'clock the next day.

I felt the heat of the wine and the enthusiasm of the wind, and toasted him again.

"You are like me, you work overtime for more than 20 days a month, according to the law and the foreigner system, you have to pay overtime wages, but you are forced to be pressed down by the old witch of the manager!" Director Sun said angrily: "She also made a trick to let the human resources department destroy the employees' daily punch sheets, and all those who work overtime." In this way, some people still secretly kept the punch sheet, and when they left, they asked the labor and social security department for an explanation, and finally the factory made up a large amount of money. ”

"Then will you ask for unpaid wages?" I was also a little frightened at the thought that I would have to face such a boss in the future.

"Forget it, let's eat a trench and grow wise. Director Sun said with red eyes, his words full of infinite longing for his new job.

"You only get 5,000 yuan as a certified public accountant, which is less than me, it's not worth it. Director Sun said with emotion.

"Hey, it's a time and a moment. I said gratefully, "Thank you for the reminder, I'll take note." ”

A month passed quickly, and I finally understood the hardships of life.

For the first three weeks, I volunteered to work overtime out of curiosity about new things. While quickly learning the operation of ERP, while learning excel by himself, coupled with a deep theoretical foundation, and more than a year of experience in the more complex large-scale machinery manufacturing industry, so he quickly became handy.

As time passed, by the beginning of the fourth week, I was able to fully complete my work tasks before I left work.

A few children from the finance department were also surprised by my rapid progress, because the manager told them that my level was very average, and it was estimated that if I didn't do anything during the 3-month probationary period, I would have to get out.

However, I also found a very strange scene: after work, no one left, and they all worked overtime in their respective positions.

Someone who has nothing to do, looking around, pretending to be busy on the computer, if you sneak up behind him, you will find that he is typing all nonsense like "I am a man (woman)", like there is a lyric that sings "Daddy is Daddy Lai Niang is Niang".

The manager leaves work at 9 o'clock every night, but he asks me to lead the rest of the finance department to leave work at 11 o'clock. For the sake of my distant relative, RMB, for the first month, I endured it.

But human energy is limited, and working 14 hours a day, six days a week, made me groggy every day from the second month.

The worst thing is: the manager's spoken English is not good, every time I meet the phone call of the nut country headquarters, I am asked to answer, and I am also a second knife, after many times "I beg your pardon (please say it again)", we are tired, just send an email.

That's my forte, and it's all right for me!
