Chapter 6: A Foolish Life
This is the third month that Li Mingjie has left the campus, and he originally stepped out of the campus with hope, but now he is almost crushed by reality.
.
.
In the past three months, he has been running around all the time from the beginning of looking for a house to finding a job.
He didn't dare to tell his family, and at first he would use 'white words' to deceive his family that he was living a good life, but then he began to run away from his family.
The original family call once a week gradually became once every two weeks and once every three weeks, and finally Li Mingjie didn't dare to take the initiative to call home again, and his family also called him, but every time he hurriedly ended the conversation under the pretext that he was busy with work.
To this day, Li Mingjie still hasn't found the job he wants. He is not very demanding, but on the contrary, the company he interviews with is very demanding.
He interviewed for many planning jobs, but these companies asked him if he knew how to video edit, whether he could PR, PS, programming, and other technical skills.
Isn't that the job of an editor? What is the plan?' Li Mingjie complained in his heart, but he replied with a serious face: "Will"
Every time I look at the interviewer, I look at you with an expression that makes Li Mingjie want to laugh when I think about it.
It's as funny as the salary.
"How much do I get paid?"
"Three Thousand Five"
"Four thousand"
"You are given 2800 during the probation period, and you can have five or six thousand a month if you work hard"
............
The answers of these companies always made Li Mingjie laugh, and he wondered why those companies thought that three or four thousand yuan could find an all-round and willing employee to work overtime. Unless that person is a fool!
Li Mingjie hated and hated this society that would only draw cakes for employees to satisfy their hunger, but he couldn't help it, because he was also a member of this society. He's just an ordinary guy.
.

Li Mingjie ate instant noodles and checked the recruitment information on the Internet, if he didn't find a job this month, he would have no money to pay rent and eat next month.
He no longer had any expectations of becoming an office worker, and he decided to find a job to support himself first.
"Huh? Amusement park staff, salary 3600? Li Mingjie couldn't even take care of instant noodles when he looked at this recruitment information, and hurriedly clicked to sign up.
'Ding-'
'Registration is successful, please arrive at the workplace tomorrow for an interview'
Li Mingjie looked at this message, and his dead heart was rekindled.
.
.
.
An amusement park
"You're here to apply, aren't you?"
"Yes, I'm here to apply"
"Okay, our position is mainly responsible for guiding tourists to use the equipment in the park safely, the salary is 3600, including food and accommodation, and every Monday, can you accept it?"
"Well, that's acceptable"
"Alright then, you go with me to the onboarding procedures"
The person in charge of interviewing Li Mingjie took Li Mingjie to go through the entry procedures, and Li Mingjie followed behind the staff, he didn't expect this job to be so simple.
.
.
.
Li Mingjie, who was standing next to the roller coaster in his work clothes, was full of enthusiasm, he warmly received everyone who entered the facility, he treated everyone with a smile, and people were also infected by his enthusiasm and smiled at him back.
In this way, Li Mingjie spent the first day of this work in what he thought was happiness.
Early the next morning, Li Mingjie was dressed neatly, he looked at himself in the mirror, and he went out to work with his chest puffed up.
Today, Li Mingjie spent the same day as yesterday.
Day 3....
Day 4....
A month passed like this.....
Li Mingjie looked at the deposit notification displayed on his mobile phone, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart for the first time. He clicked on the address book and clicked on the phone number he often dialed.
"Toot-"
"Hey"
"Hey, Mom, it's me"
"Oops, it's Applejack, old man, Applejack called"
Li Mingjie heard the excitement and excitement from his mother on the other side of the phone, and he suddenly realized that tears flowed down his cheeks.
'Alas, why am I in tears?' Li Mingjie asked himself.
Tears are like a collapsed dam, Li Mingjie can only wipe them with his right hand, but no matter how he wipes his tears, he can't stop it.
"Hey, Applejack, how are you doing?" said her father's voice on her phone.
"Hmm—" Applejack was silent.
"Applejack? Feed? Feed? Is there something wrong with your phone? I told you to sell a new phone," came his father's voice on the phone.
"Alas, how do I know if this phone is broken at this time" was the mother's voice.
Li Mingjie listened to the conversation between his parents, he took a deep breath and said, "Dad, Mom, I miss you"
After saying this, the phone also fell silent. After a while, Li Mingjie's mother's voice came from the mobile phone, only to hear the mother choke up and say: "Child, your father and I miss you too"
Mother's words made Li Mingjie completely collapsed.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Li Mingjie cried like when he was a child, and his snot and tears dripped on the ground together.
"Silly boy, what are you sorry for, you didn't do anything wrong," the father began.
"This family doesn't need you to pay anything now, you just need to take good care of yourself, you know!" The father said Li Mingjie in a stern tone.
"Well, I see," Li Mingjie said as if assured.
Li Mingjie adjusted his mood and continued: "Dad, Mom, I have found a job, I am working in a company, this month's salary has been paid, I will pay you living expenses later."
"You kid, the family doesn't need your help now, you keep the money and use it when you need it in the future," Li's mother, who had stabilized her mood, said bitterly.
"No, I.." Li Mingjie wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Li's father at this time: "You kid don't want your mother-in-law, just listen to your mother's words, you know?"
When Li Mingjie heard his father say this, he could only change the topic and said: "By the way, how are you doing lately, do you have any ......?"
.
.
.
.
In the blink of an eye, Li Mingjie has been in this position for three months, during which he has met all kinds of people, but he has solved all the problems with his enthusiastic heart.
Of course, he also reverted to the habit of calling home every week.
"Welcome..."Li Mingjie was stunned in the middle of his words.
"Ah, aren't you Mingjie, why do you work here" The person who said this was a thin boy, and there were two people around him.
Li Mingjie recognized them, they were his classmates in college.
"Mingjie, why did you come here to be a waiter, shouldn't you be here to experience life?" I saw another fat boy say in a weird voice.
"Ah, no, I'm just here to work part-time" Hearing their words, Li Mingjie somehow didn't want to admit that he was an employee here.
"Part-time job, you academic bully don't go to be a tutor to come here to work part-time, and sure enough, it's stupid to read, hahaha" The words of the yin and yang boy caused the other two people next to him to laugh too.
Li Mingjie didn't want to pay attention to them, and replied perfunctorily: "Well, you guys go in quickly, and the tourists in the back should also go in."
"We're old classmates, that's how you treat us?" The fat man listened to Li Mingjie's perfunctory tone, he was very unhappy, no, it should be said that he was unhappy when he was in school, he just couldn't get used to Li Mingjie's style of a scholar.
"I'm stuck here, what can you do with me" The fat man looked at Li Mingjie arrogantly.
Mingjie looked at the guy in front of him who looked at people with his nostrils, and he couldn't understand what this person had to do with him.
"Hey, the one up ahead, get out of the way"
"The people in front of them are moving forward."
"You're in charge of the staff."
Li Mingjie looked at the dissatisfaction from the customers behind him, and said directly to the person in front of him: "Please don't block the guests behind, otherwise I will invite the security personnel to come."
The two people next to the fat man watched the matter get bigger and bigger, and hurriedly persuaded the fat man: "Fat man, we are out to be happy, why bother, let's go"
The fat man listened to the two people around him, and he could only do this first, and the three of them walked into the fence. Li Mingjie looked at the three people who walked in and exhaled.
At this moment, the fat man suddenly said loudly: "What kind of scholar, Sima is just a thing"
Li Mingjie's face sank, he took off his uniform and rushed into the fence, and flew up at the fat man is kick, the fat man was directly kicked to the ground by this kick, and the two people around him did not react.
I saw Li Mingjie step forward and turn the fat man over, punching him in the face, the other two hurriedly stepped forward to tear Li Mingjie away, Li Mingjie was like a crazy lion who beat the fat man to the point of wailing again and again.
.
.
.
"How can you beat up a guest!"
"Because of him.."
"What is he, the customer is God, you hit people is wrong, you are fired, go to the personnel to receive your salary this month and leave here quickly" The manager reprimanded Li Mingjie, turned around and left angrily.
Li Mingjie helplessly raised his hands and rubbed his face, he looked tired, he.... Just over three months, he.... It's the same self again.
