Chapter 111: Scarce Value is Growth!
Rain, pouring rain fell, Sue was not wet, she hid in the car early, and drove into the taxi at the airport. She knew she might not be able to wait for Shenghu to come to her, or that she wouldn't have the courage to wait for him. Only work is what you need. After all, she has only been on leave for two days, and there are many calls and messages that exude demand and value for her.
Especially when he heard that Xiao Su also wanted to leave his job, Su had to raise his spirit to deal with it. She is her first right-hand man in the company, and she is also the most understanding and supportive of her work. The reason is also very simple, Xiao Su feels that human resources may not be her favorite major.
"When a lot of people are looking for a job, they always say that they want to match their interests, that is, they like it. But the problem is that what many people are really interested in is the aura of the work itself. For example, you said before that you like human resources, because you think you can manage others, and then wear fashion in and out of the office all day long, for example, some people want to be a star, but they just think that being a star can make them famous and make a lot of money; I want to be a designer, but I just think the job is cool and glamorous; I want to be a freelance writer, but I just feel that this job is very free. ”
Xiao Su nodded undeniably and did not speak.
"Xiao Su, in fact, you are in this mood, I have had it before, if you really leave your job, you will find that your interests are sometimes completely different from your professional positions, every hard work is very hard, and then your interests are very relaxed? No, the one you're interested in is only the aura, not what you really do. ”
"Mr. Su, I seem to understand. Thank you. Xiao Su smiled gracefully, "Fortunately, I sent you a message first, and I didn't go to OA to apply for resignation, otherwise I would be laughed at." ”
"Maybe you're not here these days, and your workload has increased, so you're a little tired, right?"
"I'm not afraid of you training me, it may be true, usually with you, I feel that I am not afraid of anything, anyway, I can't deal with it, there is a person behind you who will give guidance, but you are not there, I feel very bottomless, as if people who usually don't look for my business have suddenly come to me to trouble. It's a little annoying. ”
"Haha, okay, I'm not back yet, just enough to exercise your coping skills."
"Take your time, take your time. Ha ha. Xiao Su made tea for Su is and handed it over, "I still have questions." ”
"Seeing that you made tea, I knew that this tea was not so delicious." Su smiled and pulled her to sit down across the sofa to talk.
"Sister Su, I'm more than happy to call you that, do you think our work is physical or mental work? Seriously, people think we're brains when we sit in the office, but I found out that we're actually doing manual work. ”
"In fact, it doesn't matter if it's physical or mental work, the key is that we can't do repetitive labor."
"Repeat laborers?"
"Yes, don't distinguish between mental and physical strength, even some high-intensity mental work is still repetitive work. For example, when our recruitment rate is extremely high, we still recruit people according to these channels, and everyone thinks that the sales are less repetitive, but in fact, after a long time, we will also follow a fixed routine and complete the sales process as a routine. Day after day, repetitive work, the work is becoming more and more proficient, but the growth is getting slower and slower. ”
"Work is getting more and more proficient, and growth is getting slower?" Xiao Su thought for a while, "The first time I heard this kind of summary, I thought that becoming more and more proficient was experience. ”
"For example, if I ask you, if you ask an old farmer to plant a piece of farmland in the fastest time and ensure the quality, do you want to ask an old farmer, or buy a book on rice planting and read it yourself at home?
"Isn't it more convenient to consult experienced farmers directly?"
"No, the correct answer is: borrow a rice transplanter."
"Ahh Machine? ”
In the face of "repetitive work", is it useful to improve one's own efficiency? No. Because no matter how much you improve, you will only go from a novice rice planter to an experienced old farmer, and it will take decades. Even so, the speed of your rice transplanting is not at all in the same order of magnitude as the rice transplanter. Just like we have some data statistics and analysis, the machine only takes three minutes to complete the work in two days. This is one of the things that is often overlooked by "repetitive work": your abilities can actually be "instrumentalized". ”
"Will human resources also be mechanized? When you say this, it's not a question of whether I'm interested in this position, but whether I will have a sense of crisis in the future? ”
"The ultimate goal of a person's advancement in the workplace is to rely on tools to liberate their time, learn to call resources outside the system, expand the extension of value, and finally "resource" their own value. It is what you call whether you are interested or not, at that time, you are no longer selling time that cannot be replicated, but all kinds of resources attached to you. Anytime you want to change jobs or go it alone, you can get olive branches thrown around. There is no longer "duplication of work", only "scarce value". ”
"I understand, I shouldn't repeat the work and lose interest in this position, in fact, I have to create my own scarce value in any position."
"Whether you are born in the 70s, 80s, 90s, or even 00s in the future, only by no longer indulging in the ease and security brought by "repetitive labor" can you truly avoid workplace crises and win the competition in your career. And any effort without direction and strategy will inevitably create a warm water frog, which will eventually sit back and wait to die. ”
"Listening to Su Yixi's words is better than reading a book for ten years."
"Haha, it's better than leaving your job several times. Remember what is hidden behind our seemingly wonderful lives? "Well, that's poignant." ”
"But when do you know that your value is over? Can't get promoted? Or when should you consider changing jobs? ”
"Where are the boundaries of one's abilities? It's that I throw one thing at you first, and you do it well, and then I throw you a bigger thing, and then I throw it again. Until you run, you know, oh, the border is here. I'd be surprised to find that there are people who don't break down no matter how much you try to increase the difficulty exponentially. And with a provocative look, come on, come on. It's also a gift. ”
"It seems that I don't have this kind of talent anymore, right, as soon as there is a problem, I want to escape."
"That's not either, I'm sure you'll face the problem and solve the problem next."
"In fact, I chose this position because I wanted to come and learn, like most young people, haven't we all come here to learn and accumulate experience over the years? But last time you said in the training of students, let them not keep talking about learning and learning, the company is not for learning. ”
"Because no one in the workplace cares about what you input, only what you output. You said that we used to be at IPSNU, maybe you memorized 30 words a day, went to the gym every night, finally breathed in swimming, improved in painting, occasionally went to tai chi, did handicrafts, read 1000 books, went to countless concerts; Your music app is full of great songs that no one has discovered, you've learned all sorts of skills like bartending, dancing, singing, and musical instruments, and you're in a human resources management position. These are not your workplace skills, your workplace capabilities are the skills that human resource management should have. ”
"It seems to be the same."
"The workplace is not as cold as we imagined, but it is not as pure as we imagined. Putting in knowledge and skills is good personal growth, which is all about enriching your horizons and knowledge, and there is nothing wrong with it, but your boss is more concerned about: what value do you bring to the department? What kind of value can you create? It's your own business that you input so much, but what you output is the company's business. Those students think "what can I learn from this job", and the workplace cares about "what you can bring to the job". ”
"Thanks, I seem to understand."
"Then work hard, and by the way, analyze the manpower report for the past two days and give it to me."
"Ah, do you want a manpower report again? All right! Xiao Su grimaced and walked out.
Su is still sitting on the sofa, she is not in a hurry to look at the to-do list on the computer as before, and she doesn't even want to look at her phone, she is a little tired, so tired that she doesn't want to think about it anymore.
Before she could take a sip of tea, the footsteps outside the office door were getting closer and closer, and she knew that it should be time to get off work. Without looking at her watch, she put the teacup on the table again and glanced at her phone. Two missed calls were found. They were all called from Shenghu Lake in Jiangcheng.
Su hadn't decided whether to call back, or how to call back. There was no message from him on the phone, which made her heart feel cold, at least in the usual interactions, if she didn't answer the phone, he would definitely send a few messages to tell her why he was looking for her and worried about her. Or maybe this time he had an accident at home, and he was too busy!
Thinking of Chen Qiu's words and Huang Yan's expression, Su was busy pressing the number he had just called again.
The manager of the administration department reminded her that the company's dormitory had been arranged and asked her when she would move in? Su felt that this was a good time, so he took the key casually, signed it, and walked to the dormitory apartment. According to the manager of the administration department, this apartment is still where Mr. Pan lived before, and it just so happened that he went abroad, so he could clean it out for her immediately.
The mobile phone rang again, Su was not in a hurry to pick it up, but looked around at this management apartment, compared to the previous company's dormitory, this set is really an apartment, a bit like a standard room in a hotel, with all the facilities.
The mobile phone in the bag was still ringing, Su pushed open the window of the room, took out the mobile phone again, and found that the caller was not Shenghu, but Chengfeng.
"Where are you? Why don't you answer the phone all the time? ”
"I'm in the company dormitory, is there something wrong?"
"You send me the specific address, and I'll come to you."
"It's all off work now, so let's talk about something directly on the phone."
"I just knew that you got off work, so I came to look for you, don't talk nonsense, I know your company address, and it's already downstairs in your company, I didn't expect you to get off work so punctually, and you fell short."
"When did you come to Eastside? Still downstairs in my company? Su is also helpless, "Okay, I'll go over to find you." “
