After getting off work the next day, Lin Duo waited for Chen Yu at the gate of the company, Chen Yu was busy in the office for a while, and when she had nothing to do, she walked in the grove outside the company. The dreary air of City C is breathless, and there are bursts of car horns on the highway during rush hour. The city never seems to be quiet, the daily wave of cars seems to overturn the road, even the flowers and trees have a messy sound, and the noise is always the characteristic of the city.

At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Lin Duo glanced at it, it was Meng He calling.

"Do'er, are you off work?"

"It's time to get off work, what about you, are you out of school?"

"It's been school for a long time, and you're going to play on the court, and you haven't been in contact with me much lately, are you in a bad mood?"

"No, you don't know me yet, I don't play with my phone much, and I can't often take out my phone to look at it during work hours, and I go home after work and go to bed after dinner. Alas, it's quite tiring, and I miss the carefree life at school. ”

"I see, is everything okay? You are now living a life of two points and one line, although it is harder, but it is still meaningful, that is, you have to pay more attention to your body, pay more attention to rest. ”

Lin Duo felt that this sentence sounded a bit ironic now, because she was about to take on a part-time job at night, so how could she rest.

"What about you, how are you studying and living lately?"

"I'm still like that, after class every day, in addition to playing, I still play, life is quite boring, in fact, I hope to live a busy life like you. ”

"Silly, how good are you now, you don't have to go to work, you can still play, and when you go to work, you'll know, every day except work, there is nothing else to do, no entertainment at all. ”

"That's so good, I live a very fulfilling life every day, my life is so empty every day, and when I graduate, I will also go to City C and fight with you. ”

"You, let's talk about it when you graduate, in short, going to work is not like attending classes at school, there is still pressure, so cherish school life. ”

At this time, the rhythmic sound of the car horn came from not far away, and Lin Duo took a look, Chen Yu's white Cruze was parked on the side of the road, and Chen Yu in the car was waving to her.

"Alright, I'll have something to do, let's talk about it in the evening. ”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Duo walked to the front of the car, opened the door and sat in.

"Are you talking to your boyfriend on the phone?" Chen Yu said.

"Well, I haven't been in touch with him for a few days, and he has an opinion. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu turned on the air conditioner and said: "I asked yesterday, my friend found me a good KTV, the salary is the same as I said, the business is not bad, the main thing is that the environment is good, there are no miscellaneous people." ”

"Miscellaneous people?" Lin Duo was a little puzzled.

"Yes, miscellaneous people, it's called a green KTV. I told my friend that as long as I have a part-time job at Green KTV, people will understand what it means. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo said, "Thank you, Chen Yu." So, do you still work until two o'clock in the morning?"

Chen Yu nodded and said: "Actually, I also asked, my friend said that the front desk can get off work at half past one o'clock, because after one o'clock in the morning, KTV will no longer serve customers, saying that two o'clock to get off work, I think it should be a time interval." ”

"Oh, I see. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu said with some distress: "Sister Lin, don't be too reluctant, working in KTV, generally speaking, there will be a one-week probationary period, if you can't adapt during this period, you can resign at any time." After all, after working all day during the day and going to work at night, the body can't bear it. ”

Lin Duo was already determined to do a part-time job at night, but he still said: "I'll try, if I can't persevere, I will resign." ”

The car turned to the right and came to a two-way four-lane road, which was left and right with bright nightclubs, various bars and KTV entertainment venues, dazzling LED lights flashing, and rows of cars below. Through the glass, you can see the splendid decorations inside the gate of the night show, and the scene of drunk people spitting alcohol outside the door. Fashionably dressed and glamorous women hold the big-bellied man next to them, and there are also strangely dressed young men and women laughing and dancing on the hood, like a punk style picture in the 80s in the United States.

All this made Lin Duo a little scared, she felt that she was incompatible with such an environment, like a deer looking at the lion and tiger beast inside the railing. The life she thinks is to live a normal life, which is the so-called going to and from work, getting married and having children, it's as simple as that. The scene in front of her struck her heart, and this drunken nightlife was simply another world for her, a world that never seemed to belong to her, a distant world.

However, money has connected her to such a world, and little by little, it has been brought closer.

"Here we are, here it is. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo came back to her senses, the car had stopped, she opened the door and walked out, and what caught her eye was a revolving door, and the glowing words on it stood out: Cigarette Rose KTV

Chen Yu walked over, raised his head and looked at the rose red words, and said: "At the beginning, when I heard the name of this KTV, I really didn't believe that this was a green entertainment venue, but I still believed in my friend, according to my relationship with him, he wouldn't lie to me, don't worry." ”

The string hanging in Lin Duo's heart was loosened, she believed in Chen Yu, so she walked in with her.

When the two came to the front desk, a young woman in overalls stood up and said, "Hello. ”

Chen Yu said: "We made an appointment with your manager for an interview. ”

"Oh, what's your name, please?"

"Lin Duo. ”

"Uh-huh, please come here. ”

Chen Yulinduo followed the staff to an office door.

"Manager Ma, the person you said for the interview has arrived. ”

"Oh, let them in then. ”

Chen Yu and Lin Duo walked in.

"You may be seated. Manager Ma said.

The two sat down on the sofa, and Manager Ma walked to the table and took two paper cups, picked up the boiled tea and poured it slowly.

Lin Duo looked at him, he was about 30 years old, with thick hair, a long beard, wearing a blue shirt and black cargo pants, a literary and professional atmosphere.

"It was introduced by Xiao Li, right?" asked Manager Ma.

Chen Yu cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Yes, we contacted Xiao Li yesterday and said that we were looking for a part-time job at night, and Xiao Li recommended us to come here." ”

Manager Ma put the cup of tea in front of the two of them, and the two hurriedly thanked them. Then he sat down and said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Li is reliable, he contacted me this afternoon and said that there is an interview coming over in the evening, I don't know which beauty it is?"

Lin Duo said: "It's me, Manager Ma." ”

Manager Ma looked at Lin Duo for a while and said, "Well, the girl is very handsome and good-looking." Have you done the work at the front desk before?"

"No, no. Lin Duo replied truthfully.

"Well, I haven't done it, it doesn't matter, it's easy to get started, it's nothing more than opening a card, applying for a card, opening a platform, registering, operating on a computer, I learned it in two days, and young people learn things quickly. Manager Ma said.

Chen Yu said: "So, is the salary the same as what Xiao Li said?"

"Four days off a month, a basic salary of 3,500, plus commissions and subsidies, 4,500 yuan per month, to work at any KTV is this price, the salary of the front desk of this line is not much different. Manager Ma said.

"Oh, that's right, it's the same as Xiao Li said. Chen Yu said.

"But there is one thing, now we only recruit night shifts, in other words, there is no shift, and we can't work day shifts. I hope you understand this, you can switch to the day shift once in a while, and if you can accept it, you can go to work tonight. Manager Ma said.

Lin Duo was just about to agree, but Chen Yu kicked her with his foot and said, "It's acceptable, we came to the night shift from the beginning, if we want to transfer to the day shift, then it will be troublesome." Do you think that's okay? We'll go back today and get ready, and we'll come back tomorrow night to get started. ”

Manager Ma thought for a while and said, "It's okay, since it's the person introduced by Xiao Li, I can trust it, you won't leave and won't come back." To tell the truth, there is a shortage of people now, and I don't know what's going on, the front desk has to resign, in fact, the salary is the same for changing places, alas, young people are young after all. ”

Chen Yu said: "Then that's it, we'll come back tomorrow." ”

Manager Ma nodded.

The two came out of the KTV, and Lin Duo asked: "Since the salary is about the same wherever you go to the front desk, why do those front desks resign? I think there is still a difference in salary and treatment, so I will resign." ”

Chen Yu said: "I asked, and the salary of this line is really the same as what Manager Ma said, with less than 100 yuan up and down. ”

Lin Duo was puzzled and asked, "Then why do some people resign? ”

Chen Yu said: "Xiao Li said that those girls found him after resigning, and after his introduction, they went to do other jobs. ”

Lin Duo asked, "What kind of work?"

Chen Yu said: "What kind of job can it be, part-time job, waiter, singer, star dancer, lighting engineer and other literary and artistic jobs." ”。

Lin Duo understood that she couldn't do these jobs, she couldn't dance, and she couldn't sing well.

Chen Yu sent Lin Duo to the gate of the community and went to work in the supermarket. Lin Duo came home and lay on the bed, with an indescribable feeling in her heart, she knew that she was going to work in the KTV tomorrow night, she was not ready at this moment, everything came too suddenly, she didn't even remember the route of the night shift. Now she understands why Chen Yu kicked her just now, it turned out to give her one more day to prepare. But thinking that she can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, she is still a little excited, although she earns all the hard money, but in this society, who earns not hard money? I only hope that my efforts can lead to the life I want, and I only hope that my heart's desires can be satisfied.
