Chapter 8
There were no classes, no part-time jobs, no dates on Saturdays and Sundays, and I didn't want to run to the library with a book like Zhong Ling, so Yan Licorice had to frantically search the computer for good foreign movies. She was originally very patriotic, but because she was abused by those summer movies that only had gimmicks and no content and acting skills during the summer vacation, she was not able to make up for it without foreign love movies. Of course, this is her confidence in movies, and she can only make up for her confidence in Chinese films by binge-brushing classical Chinese dramas and the films of the male god Tony Leung.
Swallow licorice made up its mind for the nth time to stick to the five-day weight loss plan, and when I went to the supermarket to buy daily necessities in the morning, I was smashed by the snacks placed on the shelves next to it, and I comforted myself while sweeping junk food into the shopping basket, which was an vent to my own unemployment grief and avoided leaving any indelible damage to my psychology.
When Ruan Jiaojiao stepped into the bedroom, what she saw was Yan Licorice holding potato chips, sitting without any image, lazily leaning on the ladder of the upper and lower bunks, holding a large bag of potato chips in her hand, staring intently at the computer, and the cup of milk tea next to the computer was still steaming slowly.
She threw the bag in her hand on the table, then took off her high heels and kicked it to the side, walked to the table barefoot and picked up the cup of milk tea and blew it, after determining the temperature, it was like a cow drinking water.
After drinking, she put the cup on the table proudly, burped slightly aesthetically without temperament, picked up the paper towel in front of the licorice table and wiped the corners of her mouth, "It would be better if it was a little colder." ā
Yan Licorice stared at the computer and stretched out her hand to Ruan Jiaojiao, "The milk tea you just drank is worth 10 yuan, please pay." ā
"Why don't you go and rob?" Ruan Jiaojiao slapped her hand, leaned closer to the computer and looked at the time displayed on the lower right, "I remember that you didn't have a class today, why didn't you go?" ā
"I'm unemployed, and I don't want a tutor in that family." She retracted her hand and naturally slipped into the bag of chips.
"Why?"
The parents of that family helped his son sign up for cram school, saying that it was all students from their school, and the effect was quite good, so he ...... "Yan Licorice's family is a medium-sized family on their side, and the family will not lack her living expenses, but it is not very rich." When I was a freshman, I often saw students working part-time in the school cafeteria, so I started to find part-time jobs with Ruan Jiaojiao, and the laptop computer she uses now is earned from her usual part-time job.
At the beginning, I worked part-time as a waiter in a restaurant, although the salary was not very high, but the work was not heavy, and the oon's licorice was very happy and satisfied. Later, I heard that it was more cost-effective to be a tutor, and after inquiring, I learned that this part-time job was in short supply and was generally introduced, and the licorice had no connections to continue to happily her restaurant waiter, but there was a thought in my heart.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked down on the waiters in the restaurant, felt that it was greasy, and it was not good to say it, and some of the customers were too low and hairy. So he made full use of his appearance to often find some part-time jobs for etiquette and reception, although Yan Licorice didn't know how good she said it, but the salary was much higher than her.
When she was a sophomore, there was a senior who wanted to chase Ruan Jiaojiao in order to please her and ask her to help say good things and introduce her to her first part-time tutor. After getting Ruan Jiaojiao's consent, Yan Licorice turned over as a serf to sing, teach English, charged 50 yuan an hour, four hours a week, and did not give up the part-time job in the restaurant. The mother of the swallow licorice will praise her daughter whenever she meets a ripe or unfamiliar one, so that the swallow licorice will be embarrassed to meet some old classmates when she comes home.
"Did you pay for it?"
"Given, I gave 100 more yuan, it's all here." Yan Licorice opened her small cabinet, Ruan Jiaojiao looked at it, except for the "small bread".
"What about the restaurant one?"
"It's gone, the boss has expanded the store, hired full-time, and there is no need for part-time jobs." Yan Licorice picked up the empty cup and shook it, motioning for Ruan Jiaojiao to add water.
"Are you still looking for a part-time job?"
"Look for it, why don't you look for it, if you don't look for me, I'll starve to death." But after saying that, she sighed, "But I looked around on the Internet and found that most of the information on it was a lie, and I actually asked me to pay a deposit first, what if I was a fool?" ā
"Didn't the cafeteria recruit people two days ago?" She remembers going to the cafeteria and seeing job postings on the walls.
"No, that's for freshmen, I'm a senior, and now it's estimated that it's full."
"Otherwise, don't look for it, anyway, in two months, we'll start looking for an internship unit." Ruan Jiaojiao ti yƬ.
"Isn't there no salary during the internship period, and when the time comes, I will definitely have to buy clothes to wear to work or something, and I will have no money." Not to mention that she couldn't think of it, but when she said it, she thought of it, and she was even more worried. In addition to tuition, there is no longer reaching out to her parents to ask for money, if she asks her parents for living expenses, her parents will definitely not say anything, but she can't open her mouth.
"You're stupid, can't you just find a paid internship unit?" Nowadays, many people are looking for a job, don't they do internships first and then become regulars? Why can those interns be paid, but why they can't, the solution is not what people think.
Yan Licorice sat up straight when she heard this, "How can I get paid?" Your ex-ex-boyfriend just didn't have a salary during the internship period, and the seniors I asked also said that there was no salary. ā
"You're asking the wrong person!" Ruan Jiaojiao ignored her ex-ex-boyfriend and took a stool to sit next to her.
"The person you're asking is paid?" She asked a lot of questions, but they were all unpaid.
Ruan Jiaojiao listened to her words, brushed her hair behind her back, then touched her face again, and said arrogantly: "Do you think I need to ask someone like this?" ā
Yan Licorice rolled her eyes at her, and deliberately reached out to mess Ruan Jiaojiao's hair, "Boom! Tell me how you can get paid. ā
"Just find the right internship unit, you have to find it yourself, the internship units assigned by the school are all unpaid, what you ask are all internships in the internship units assigned by the school, right?" Ruan Jiaojiao stopped the childish behavior of Yan Licorice.
"How can I find it myself? Just two months of internship, I don't understand anything, the normal company recruits are all able to stay and do all the time, we have to come back next semester to get the paper, can the normal company agree? The units assigned by the school will not have these problems. "Swallow licorice's popular thinking and forward-looking at this time are very smooth, and it comes out.
"If you have to follow this step, it's definitely not going to work."
"Are there any other steps?" To be honest, she was not mentally prepared to enter the society so early, and she felt that the internship arranged by the school was very good.
"Just find a serious unit for an internship, and then settle down in that unit, so that when you graduate next year, you can avoid the shortage of jobs." Ruan Jiaojiao doesn't have the desire to postpone graduation like Yan Licorice, she just wants to leave school as soon as possible and hone herself in society.
Yan Licorice saw confidence in her face, and she was envious of her beautiful expectations for the future. She doesn't want to continue to study for graduate school like Zhong Ling, maybe she will also study for a doctorate, which is their family's pursuit of knowledge and culture. If she goes to graduate school, it is definitely because she wants to delay graduation, not because she wants to get a higher diploma.
She once dreamed of traveling alone, making a lot of money, and then saving a lot of money so that her parents would never have to work hard. Although she still has such thoughts, but when she met Zhang Changtao and her usual part-time experience, she thought more about how to stabilize herself. So although she resisted graduation, she chose to graduate between studying and graduating.
"What about the dissertation?"
"If the company I'm looking for is good, I'll continue to do it, in that case, I'll start preparing during the Chinese New Year, and I'll communicate with the teacher in advance, so as not to do useless work, you know, we're all old perverts in this major. If the company can't do it, I'll do a short-term internship, but I will start preparing for my graduation thesis during the winter vacation, so that it will be much easier to find a job and prepare for my thesis when I come tomorrow. I can't wait to graduate, then work, become a white-collar worker, a gold-collar worker, and become a strong business woman. There was a burning desire in her eyes, and her whole body showed that she had endless energy waiting for an opportunity to release.
Yan Licorice listened to her words and smiled, but her heart was not very comfortable, she was very happy that her friend had a clear goal and plan, and could always be firm in his ideals, and slowly move towards the direction of his ideals. But looking at herself, her heart is empty, with no goal and no self-confidence. She yearns, but she is also cowardly.
Ruan Jiaojiao saw the reluctant smile on Yan Licorice's face, this person who put so many snacks in the cabinet must be different from her, but now she is full of confidence, she can't clearly understand her loneliness, and can only guess a little.
"I'm me, you're you, you can also ask the other people in your class to see what they're going to do, and the positions in your major are different. The senior students probably all have the same idea as you, I just have what I want to do, and I am smart and invincible, so I naturally think differently. The internship unit recommended by the school will not run away, and you can also find out privately to see what companies you can work for. After finishing speaking, he saw that Yan Licorice's expression did not change much, so he continued: "Why don't you find a part-time job first, you can't always be in the dormitory like this every day, it's easy to think cranky, and the money is spent quickly." ā
Yan Licorice heard Ruan Jiaojiao mention money, her mind was turned away, filling her stomach is currently more important than finding an internship unit, she still has some savings, but it is not a way to sit and eat.
She looked at Ruan Jiaojiao and found that she was putting on makeup, she usually doesn't wear makeup, and only puts on light makeup when she needs work, "Will you go out later?" ā
"Well, there's a liquor company doing an event at night, and I need a hostess, so I'll put on my makeup first, so as not to crowd with other people."
"How much?"
"8 o'clock to 12 o'clock at night, 200 yuan." Ruan Jiaojiao put down the blush she was playing and looked at the licorice on the side, "I heard that there is still a shortage of people, why don't you try it with me?" Just stand there and giggle and show people the way, if you still sell a few bottles out and get a commission, the salary is paid. ā
Yan Licorice was a little tempted when she heard it, 200 yuan, enough for her to spend for several days, "Can I do it, haven't you done it?" ā
"I think it's okay, you don't need any work experience for this, you just need to be able to laugh. The appearance requirements are not very high, you are not ugly, you are not short, wear high heels, put on makeup, it should be about the same. Those who were also admitted to the interview with me except for the waist thin, I didn't see anything good, they all had a flour face. ā
"Really?" Yan Licorice raised her buttocks, dragged the stool in her hand and moved to Ruan Jiaojiao's side, "Then you can melt me and I will try it with you." ā
