Chapter 44: The Lunch Incident
"Master Liu, Master Liu, go and take a look, the new kid, he ate all our boxed lunches by himself!"
Master Liu put down the chainsaw in his hand and walked quickly into the carpentry workshop with a few young men.
This is a small woodworking process in Fangcheng, mainly for the nearby towns to produce some wooden stairs, along with what door and window cover wall panel wood products, because it is not a big brand, the business is bleak. The products are sold nearby, and they have to be supported by life.
A while ago, the factory had just resigned and lost a few generals, and the boss had no choice but to re-recruit troops.
In recent years, all the progress is not satisfactory, the factory staff mobility is too large, satisfied, reliable sales can not be recruited, even the sales manager who has only been in office for two months has resigned because of various personal problems, and now intends to develop the wooden door business in other provinces, although the stairs are still relatively mature, there are many dealers in the city, but the wooden door is still starting, the market brand is too much, the competition is too fierce, the cost can not be reduced, and I don't want to fight the price war with the same stream, hurt others and not benefit myself, and want to do my own wooden door brand. It's too hard!
The boss is busy every day from morning to night, and the new employees recruited in the past two years have done too few things seriously and can do good things, or they will secretly work less on their backs, steal and play tricks, as long as they can't see it, they will start to play with their mobile phones and send text messages, or they will cry and shout that they will not work, and they will either complain or complain all day long.
Master Liu walked in quickly and saw a young man in his 20s in the carpentry workshop, sitting on a stool with his feet on the workbench, wearing headphones, and seven or eight empty fast food lunch boxes piled up horizontally under his feet.
This is Chang Bo, a new employee who was just recruited last week, and he was interviewed by Master Liu, and he was very impressed by this young man's round belly.
"What's going on?" Master Liu asked with an angry face on Chang Bo's face.
Before Chang Bo could speak, the few young men around him who complained about it started talking about me word by word.
"The aunt who cooked for us today asked for leave at home, and the boss said that each person had a set of boxed lunches at noon. ”
"As a result, the lunch box was just delivered, and before we had time to come and get it, we were all eaten by this kid alone. ”
"Master, you look at the ground and it's all eaten by him!"
"That's it, what are we going to eat for lunch?"
Master Liu lowered his head and swept the fast food boxes on the ground, and each box had been eaten cleanly.
"Chang Bo, this is all what you eat?!" Master Liu asked sharply.
Chang Bo took out his headphones and put his legs off the workbench: "Master Liu, to be honest, I really can't eat enough for the food that aunt cooks." ”
"Then you can't eat us. A young man yelled dissatisfied.
"That's right, you kid is too unreasonable, pay for it, you pay for it for us." ”
Chang Bo saw that he had become the target of public criticism, but instead showed the strength of not biting if he had more debts: "I just came here and haven't paid my salary yet, what compensation do I get?"
When the young men who complained saw that Chang Bo was so dead-faced and not afraid of boiling water, they angrily picked up their arms, ready to come up and beat him.
Master Liu stopped everyone: "Forget it, forget it, hurry up and call and order a few more sets of box lunches, I will pay for this money." After Master Liu finished speaking, he glared at Chang Bo and turned to leave.
After less than two minutes, he returned to Chang Bo's side: "Xiao Chang, it's not easy to find a job now, you have just been here for a few days, you have to learn your skills hard, and have a good relationship with everyone, you can't do this again in the future." ”
When Master Liu saw Chang Boman's indifferent appearance, a wave of anger rose to his heart: "Talking to you!
"I heard ......"
Master Liu turned around and walked out again, he regretted it in his heart, how did he recruit such a person? What to eat, what to eat, what to do, what to do, if this kind of thing happens again, let him get out!
Chang Bo helplessly packed up the empty lunch box on the ground, he felt that even if he ate so much, he still didn't seem to be full.
From childhood to adulthood, Chang Bo's meal amount is considered an ordinary meal. I don't know what's going on in the past two years, and the amount of food has been rising. His parents run a small grocery store in a nearby town, which is just enough for the family to eat and drink, Chang Bo's grandparents are old, and they get sick and take medicine for three days, and the family gives a lot of money to paste in, and his parents can see that Chang Bo is not a study material, and after graduating from junior high school, he helped in the small shop for a few years, Chang Bo can't stay any longer, he really can't stand the days of sitting on the old rattan chair behind the counter every day and staring at a broken TV waiting for guests to come.
The family finally agreed to let him go out to find a job on his own, and Chang Bo saw the job advertisement for this carpentry factory and came to be an apprentice.
Although the carpentry factory is full of food and accommodation, but the meal is to hire an hourly worker to cook some simple meals for them, the amount of each meal, for Chang Bo can only eat half full, he just came in the past few days, although he is hungry and embarrassed when everyone sits around a table to eat, put rice or steamed buns into their hands.
This morning he went out to deliver a trip, loading and unloading the truck so toss is even more hungry, he returned to the woodworking factory and heard that it was a lunch box at noon, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! When the little brother who sent the express delivery came, it was Chang Bo who signed the list, and he couldn't take care of so much after accepting the box lunch......
The world is hot and cold! Life is full of variety! Why don't you just eat a few of your boxed lunches? Look at your virtues one by one, Chang Bo thought angrily.
"The lunch box has arrived. ”
The second batch of boxed lunches was delivered, and Chang Bo looked at the young men waiting at the door, and really wanted to grab a few more boxed lunches from them. The boxed lunches he ate just now were eighty percent full for him.
At least it must be very full, Chang Bo thought aggrievedly. Chang Bo's eyes were fixed on the young men, who squatted on the ground and opened the lid, and ate them with taste.
This situation was a painful torture for him, and when he was about to leave the room, he wanted to open his mouth and ask who couldn't eat the boxed lunch, and give himself a little more evenness, but the account just now had not been settled, and this could not be ......
Chang Bo held back. He couldn't bear it now, but what about the future? When the hourly aunt who cooks comes back, will he still have to face hunger every day? Will he still have to stuff a bag of crisp noodles under his pillow for supper?
I have to wait for the salary, and after the first month's salary is paid, I will definitely go to eat first!
But he thought about it, it was still early before the salary was paid, he didn't want to wait any longer, he couldn't bear it anymore, and it was better to live than die if he continued like this! If people can't even eat enough, then what kind of life is there to live? Fuck, I'm quitting Chang Bo!
Chang Bo walked quickly to Master Liu.
"Master Liu, I'm quitting!"
Master Liu took off his reading glasses and did not look up. In recent years, there has been a large turnover of people in the factory, and young people cannot be retained, so the factory has always refused to come and go. If the earth is less, anyone can turn.
"The boss is in the office, you go talk to him first. ”
Master Liu didn't look up, put on reading glasses again, and he looked at Chang Bo's back, as if he was looking at an unemployed vagrant.
