The Spring Festival customs of Nanxin City are different from those of Wenlan's hometown, Da Lei Mountain, which begins to slowly enter the New Year from the eighth day of the lunar month, and does not end the New Year until the fifteenth day of the first month of the next year, and it takes more than a month to complete a complete year. The New Year in Nanxin City starts from the 24th of the lunar month to the end of the eighth day of the first lunar month, divided into two stages, with Chinese New Year's Eve as the boundary, the period before Chinese New Year's Eve is mainly to do New Year's goods, hygiene, and thanksgiving, to be precise, it is not the New Year, it is to prepare for the New Year, and the first to eighth of the new year is the real New Year, and the main task during this time is to eat, drink and have fun. After the eighth day of the new year, all the normal work has been resumed, so the people of Nanxin City also take the eighth day of the new year more seriously, and even the name can reflect the grand atmosphere, called "Shangba", or called "Shangba", and called the eighth day of the first month "Shangba".

Today is the day of the "upper eight" in Nanxin City, and it is also the last day for my father to look at the gate at the consignment station, so I asked Lan to go to the consignment station early in the morning to explain some things to my father, because I will not be free to pick up my father tomorrow.

"Dad, tomorrow I told my colleagues to go to the labor market to see if I could find a job as soon as possible. The job in the hotel is about to expire, I want to prepare the next job as soon as possible, and before the people who work have not come back just after the Spring Festival, it may be easier to find a job, and you will go home alone tomorrow. ”

"Good. ”

"Do you know the way?"

Shi Wanyang frowned and said, "Your father only has three abilities in his life, one is strong, one is able to make pastries, and the other is to recognize the way." ”

This point is also agreed, Dad's sense of direction is particularly strong, no matter how you turn will be accurate to confirm the south, south, north, south, north, and south, once with Uncle Agen and they bet, Uncle Agen blindfolded his father with a black cloth, turned in place and turned many times irregularly, and then still blindfolded and asked Dad to point out the direction, Dad pointed to half a point. No matter how winding the road is, as long as you walk it once, even if you just look at it once, Dad will recognize the road. Wen Lan just couldn't let go of it, so she came to tell a few words.

Wen Lan said to Shi Wan, "Dad, we have found a place to live next." ”

"Good. Shi Wan was very relieved of his daughter, so he was not surprised to hear that she had found the next place to live so easily, and he didn't need to ask where it was, just go and live when the time came.

"But it's a bit far away, on the outskirts of town. The house is a whole two-story building, and it will be more spacious to live in, with a monthly rent of 300 yuan, which is much cheaper than in the city. It is the old house of Aunt Wang's house of the hotel. Because I don't want to go to the agent to find it, the agent's house may be expensive and I have to pay the agent fee. That day, I asked Aunt Wang about renting a house, and she said that she had three empty old houses on the outskirts of the city, so I rented one of them. ”

"Good. Shi Wan nodded.

"Then I'll go, I'm going to help Aunt Wang wash the vegetables in the afternoon, because she won't come after the "upper eight" today, I started washing the vegetables after getting off work at noon, and I don't have time to come. After asking Lan to finish, he left.

After getting off work at noon, Wen Lan went directly to the vegetable washing room and met Mr. Wang, who said, "Wen Lan, why do you still run here after work?"

Wenlan said: "Aunt Wang has something to do in the afternoon, I don't have anything to do anyway, so I came over to wash the vegetables, and after 4 o'clock, I didn't have time to wash when I went to work at the catering side, and now I'm idle and idle, so I'll come over to wash it." ”

Mr. Wang was very grateful and said: "Wenlan, I thank you so much, if all the employees can be like you, the hotel will not worry about manpower shortage." ”

Wenlan sat down and began to wash the vegetables, and said, "It's not like that, everyone is busier than me, I'm an outsider, my life is simpler, and I have more time." ”

Mr. Wang also sat down to wash up the dishes and said, "The hotel is really busy during this time, and the manpower is too tight, so I have mobilized the whole family." ”

"Yes, I've also heard that a boss like you, Mr. Wang, also washes vegetables, serves dishes, and does everything. ”

"Alas, who can understand the difficulty of being a boss, it is not easy to make money, we make hard money. ”

Wen Lan became interested in Mr. Wang's words, originally thought that he was the boss with a beautiful scenery, and people respected him very much when they saw him, he wanted money and money, a car and a car, and a status and status, but he didn't expect to have such a hardship. She seemed to think that she should know something, and said, "Listening to Mr. Wang, you say this, it is difficult to be the boss?"

"It's really difficult, I don't know about other industries, I know too much about the hotel industry, I have opened a hotel for decades, I know it very well, don't look at me as a decent boss, people call me Mr. Wang, in fact, I am nothing. ”

"Oh?"

"All the guests who come, all my God, as long as you enter this door, I have to nod to everyone, at this time I am not the boss, and people are the boss, I want to say good things to them with laughter and cigarettes, and sometimes I have to accompany the wine and accompany the no. Just like what you met that time, it was obvious that the other party was not, and I still had to smile at them, saying that I was wrong, but in fact, where was there anything wrong with me? Those who do our business must be able to withstand grievances, withstand blows, and be able to pretend to be grandchildren. It's really not easy to make this money. ”

"Oh, so much more truth. ”

"When I can't recruit workers, who knows how anxious I am. By the way, Q Lan, the one-month construction period is almost up, what are your plans?"

"Go find a job, a part-time worker, what else can you plan? ”

Mr. Wang's mobile phone rang, and he said, "Wenlan, thank you for your hard work, I have something to do when I go out." After that, he got up and walked away while answering the phone.

Wen Lan didn't expect that there were so many hardships to be the boss, and today I can hear a big boss say so many things to herself in person, and it's not bad to think about it, as if he was teaching himself a lesson.

The next day, Wenlan and Xiaosun came to the labor market early, because it was the first day of the new year, and the time was early, there were very few people looking for jobs, and there were more people recruiting than looking for jobs. They just wanted to find out if there was a suitable position, because the hotel would work at half past nine, and they couldn't delay here for too long.

They walked to a hotel booth where they were enthusiastically introduced. This hotel is called Xinmin Hotel, located in the suburbs of Nanxin City, is a newly opened medium-sized hotel, integrating catering, accommodation and entertainment. It turned out to be an unfinished building, and Li Cheng, who had been doing business in Nanxin City for many years, decided to operate across borders and rent this building to open a hotel. The hotel is ready to start trial operation on March 1, and signed a batch of employment contracts a year ago, but it is far from enough.

"Do you want to come to Xinmin for development, if you are interested in me to take you to the interview, work experience is preferred. Xiao Liang said with a smile.

"Okay. Asked Lan to agree, she thought that this point in time happened to be over Wang Lin's side, and she still had some experience, and this position was suitable for her.

"Then you fill out the form, and I'll take you to the interview. When the door was opened, Xiao Liang looked very excited, "Oh, in Wang Lin's, I have work experience, which is very good." By the way, fill in the contact number as well. ”

"I don't have a phone. Wen Lan said softly.

"Fill in mine. Xiao Sun said and wrote down his phone number.

"Thank you, little grandson. Wen Lan was a little grateful.

"Okay, I'll take you to the interview. Xiao Liang said to Wen Lan.

"No, just tell me where to go, I'll go by myself, you still have something to do here. Wen Lan said.

"Interview passed! Congratulations, colleague Zhao Wenlan. Xiao Liang said and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Wen Lan.

"Huh?" both Lan and Xiao Sun were taken aback.

"That's right, I'm Xiao Liang, the manager of the personnel department of Xinmin Hotel, and I am also the chief examiner of today's recruitment. Our interviews are open-ended, perhaps to answer a question, or to observe a body language, all inadvertently, which increases efficiency and allows for a person's instinctive reactions. Your answer is the best of the standard answers we designed. ”

"Oh my God, so that's the case?!" Xiao Sun relieved himself from his surprise.

"What about you, beauty?" Xiao Liang asked Xiao Sun's opinion.

"Can I sign a letter of intent first, and then I can quit my job and come over." Xiao Sun said.

"Okay. Xiao Liang said with a smile.

Q Lan was still unsatisfied with the interview just now, and said, "The two of us are together, won't your interview method have an impact on the next one?"

"Absolutely not, we have prepared a lot of topics and a lot of plans, all of which are carried out inadvertently, which is absolutely unexpected. Not to mention the two of you, we can handle it even a little more. Of course, I'm not here alone, we don't think there will be many people when we just opened today, so I'll come here alone. Xiao Liang said very confidently, "Zhao Wenlan, don't forget to report to the hotel before 9 o'clock in the morning on February 28, the meeting will start at 9 o'clock, there are some things to explain before the trial operation, and other positions will have to report a few days earlier." ”

"No, it was written in the contract just now, I remember. Wen Lan also said confidently.

The two of them left the labor market, and Xiao Sun asked Lan: "Why did you sign so quickly?"

"Because I don't have a choice, let alone a hotel, I have a little experience. You're different, you have a lot of options, and there's still a long time to consider. Wen Lan said.

Xiao Sun told Wenlan his true thoughts, mainly because of its low salary, the contract said that the probation period was only 2,000 yuan for one month, and after the official hiring, excluding pension insurance and serious illness insurance, it was only 3,000 yuan. Now in Wang Lin, it is more than 5,000 yuan a month, although there is no insurance. She'll have to think about it again, talk to her when the time comes, and go if it's appropriate. Anyway, they won't be able to recruit people for a while.

Ask Lan to admire Xiao Sun's calculations.

After the "upper eight", the hotel business was not as good as yesterday, and Wenlan returned home at less than 10 o'clock in the evening.

Ahh
