Chapter 35 Misconceptions about programmers
"It's okay to paint, but 500 yuan is too expensive, why don't you price 300 yuan for a painting?"
I thought about it for a long time and finally bowed to life.
Three hundred dollars is already a lot, and any more I really have a troubled conscience.
The cute girl was slightly disappointed when she heard the three hundred yuan, but she thought that the money was taken for nothing, and if she didn't take it for nothing, she finally agreed.
"Then, contact us on WeChat when the time comes." The girl said something, and then left the Internet café.
I just remembered that I seemed to have added her WeChat last time, but I haven't talked about it.
Continuing to fight, I continued to take on a few more tasks and painted until late at night, when I finally saved up enough for a hundred dollars.
Excluding the Internet fee, I earned nearly 90 yuan from my work this night, which is a very good part-time job.
It's just that this kind of high-intensity creation can't be done often, otherwise my body will definitely not be able to survive.
After withdrawing 100 yuan on the website, I got off the plane and went back to sleep.
Early the next morning, I got up after a few hours of sleep.
I came to Zhiyu Games and sat at the workstation for more than ten minutes before other employees came to the company one after another.
Yesterday, I just went through the onboarding, went through the procedure, and then I asked for leave directly.
It's my first day on the job, so I don't dare to be late.
"Morning, great god." A young man greeted me.
I recognized that this young man was the one sitting next to me during my assessment yesterday.
Yesterday he praised me for being a master, and later I learned that he was a programmer named Luo Jin.
I raised my hand to say hello to him.
In fact, Luo Jin has a little less knowledge, after all, I have a blank period of a few years, even if I was one of the best people in school at the beginning, but after a few years.
Many things have long been wrong.
The Internet industry is an ever-changing industry, and sometimes it can change from advanced to backward overnight, not to mention being blank for several years.
So even though my basic drawing skills are still competitive, there are still a lot of things I don't understand.
Fortunately, I was given a period of time, and I could quickly make up for what I didn't understand, but if the basic painting skills were not good, it would be difficult to improve.
The employees of the design department are working on their own, and the office area is full of keyboard "popping" sounds.
Recently, Zhiyu has received a lot of big orders, so everyone is very busy.
Even I, a new employee on the first day of work, received a very thick step of information, and was asked by the department manager to finish the drawing today before leaving work.
I woke up and was ready to do a big job.
A cute and familiar voice suddenly came from the side: "Uncle, why are you here?" ”
I turned my head to see that it was the high school girl I met at the Internet café last night, what a coincidence.
But seeing that she is completely a high school face, why is she here?
I said as a matter of course: "I work here, what about you, why are you here?" ”
"Me?" The girl slyly rolled her big Kazlan eyes, and then pointed at Luo Jin next to me.
"I'm here to find Brother Luo to fix the computer."
As I spoke, I realized that she had a laptop in her hand.
She put the notebook computer on Luo Jin's desktop: "Brother Luo, help me take a look, my computer seems to have a problem again." ”
Looking for a programmer to fix a computer? Major, it seems, a little out of place.
When I was complaining in my heart, I saw Luo Jin skillfully open the notebook, insert the USB drive, reinstall the system, and a series of operations, all in one go.
In less than ten minutes, Luo Jin returned the computer to the cute girl: "It's repaired." ”
The girl said sweetly, "Thank you, Brother Luo".
Then he left me a sentence of "Uncle, I will come to you to learn to draw when I have time in the future", and then ran away.
Hell, Luo Jin doesn't look two years younger than me, why do you call him Brother Luo, call me uncle?
After the cute girl left, I asked Luo Jin, "Who is that little girl?" How can I come and go freely in the company? ”
Luo Jin didn't raise his head: "You said Wang Shiyu, she is Director Wang's niece." ”
Wang Ping's niece? Well, no wonder.
After thinking about it, I asked again, "Aren't you a programmer?" Why did she tell you to fix the computer? ”
Speaking of this, Luo Jin looked resentful: "How do I know, maybe she has some misunderstanding about the profession of programmer." ”
"Ever since she knew I was a programmer, she often asked me to fix my computer, and her computer always had some weird little problems, so I simply reinstalled her."
Programmers are considered to repair computers, and this kind of meme actually happens from time to time in life, and ordinary programmers will go crazy when they are considered to repair computers.
Just kidding, isn't this an insult to their profession?
But this little girl is Director Wang's niece, so Luo Jin ......
I patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "She's still a kid. ”
The work of programmers and designers is quite boring, and Luo Jin will talk to me from time to time.
I suddenly felt a sense of being watched, and when I looked up, I saw a Mediterranean man just taking his eyes off me and scanning back and forth over the rest of the design department.
This Mediterranean is none other than Zhang Dongyang, the manager of the personnel department.
Strange, the manager of the HR department, why is he patrolling the design department here, is the tube so wide?
With this question, I asked Luo Jin.
Luo Jin looked at Zhang Dongyang, and only whispered after making sure that the latter had left the design department.
"That grandson in the personnel department always strictly grasps the company's regulations, can't eat snacks during work, can't be lazy, can't chat on personal calls, as long as he is caught once, his salary will be deducted, and he won't talk about it at all!"
So Zhang Dongyang stared at me just now and wanted to grab my little tail? I couldn't stop crying or laughing.
This Zhang Dongyang is quite old, but the pattern is so small.
But forget it, I'm too lazy to care about him in general, anyway, I'm here to work to make money, and I definitely won't violate the company's rules.
If he likes to stare, let him stare at it.
There are a lot of tasks assigned from above, and Rao is fast enough, and I still work overtime until nearly eight o'clock in the evening to finish the work.
Everyone else was still working hard, and many of them roared with envy when they saw that I was off work.
However, what they don't know, after I get off work, I have to go to the Internet café to work overtime to make money.
Even for dinner, I just stuffed a few buns casually.
This was the case for several days, and Wang Shiyu really found a few classmates to help me draw.
By the 30th, I had enough money to scrape together more than 1,000 dollars.
Now I finally got the rent together.
When I returned to the rental house after work in the evening, the landlord came and knocked on the door on time.
I took the money in my hand and opened the door.
The landlord was an old man in his sixties, and he didn't have any politeness, and he stretched out his hand directly to me: "The rent will increase by 500 yuan next month." ”
I was stunned and a little displeased: "Landlord, when I moved in before, we had a good conversation, how can you say that the price will be increased?" ”
The landlord said with a straight face: "Everyone has increased the price, if you love to live, you can live, and if you don't live, you can move!" ”
"But—" I have something to say.
The landlord repeated: "If you love to live, you can live, if you don't live, you can move!" ”
This old man's attitude made me very unhappy, but the price of the nearby house is not much cheaper, and it is impossible for me to find a new house to move out for a while.
"Landlord, I've been short of money for the past two days, and I can't get so much money, can you give me a few days?" I swallowed.
The old man still had a straight face: "No! ”
"Five days! No, three days! Give me three days to get the money together! ”
"No way!"
I haven't dealt with this old landlord in a few years, and I didn't expect him to have such a bad temper and be so hard.
Thinking that Zhang Wen was negotiating with this stinky old man before, he suddenly felt angry and desolate in his heart.
I said, "Landlord, I just got divorced a few days ago, and I really don't have any money on me, so can't I be accommodating for a few days?" In just three days, I'll scrape together enough money for you..."
Hearing that I was selling badly, the landlord's expression finally changed, and there seemed to be a glint in his eyes.
"You're divorced?"
I nodded for a moment.
The old man's eyes flickered a few times, and finally said, "Okay, then I'll ask you for rent in a few days, and you have to prepare in advance." ”
I said, "Thank you, Host!" ”
When the old man was gone, I closed the door and exhaled heavily.
This matter is solved, I didn't expect the landlord to temporarily decide to raise the rent, with my current rate of making money, in three days, if I sleep a little less, I should be able to earn enough 500 yuan.
