"You see, here's a record of your leave requests after coming to the supermarket – eleven verbal and written requests for leave, four early departures, four skipping shifts – the longest of which was five hours! This is recorded by the Huang of personnel, I can't help it! ”

"Understand, understand, understand."

"I really don't want to be this bad guy, but we have to respect other people's systems, right?" At twelve o'clock at noon, Manager Zhou held the documents and spread out his hands with a helpless expression.

"I'll be honest with you, everyone else was going to catch you up last weekend! I begged for another week to observe and see. Sister Zhou really begged others to give you a chance, who would have thought that you would be more serious and warped this week! Your daughter is vaccinated, your wife is hospitalized, and your son's school calls her parents...... You see, I didn't make up the piles. There have always been a lot of things in your family, and Liu Lao complained to me, obviously it was two jobs, and in the end he did it all alone, and the guys weren't happy, right! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

In the cold and low office, on a wooden table, Manager Zhou and He Zhiyuan sat face to face.

"We live in the same district, and I'm not afraid of your jokes, and I'll talk to you about me. Sister Zhou, I used to work in the postal service, almost 20 years, I divorced my ex-husband that year, and my daughter skipped class, smoked, and was expelled from school for this, I remember it vividly! During that time, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to eat, and I had to cry when I went to the bathroom. So, Sister Zhou understands very well the difficulties of your age. Later, when you come to work in this supermarket and make money to support your family, then you have to put your work in an important position! Even if it is such an ordinary place in the supermarket and such a low-level job, then I do it honestly, at first 4,000 yuan a month, and now I am more than 7,000 a month, to be honest, to Sister Zhou's age, I am very satisfied! As long as you work hard, there is a way out! Right? ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" He Zhiyuan looked at the table and nodded distractedly.

"He, I'm really out of trouble with your situation! If I can do it for you, the supermarket won't dare to keep you anymore. Coming, I won you half a salary for every week this week, originally you didn't say a word and left to count absenteeism, absenteeism is not paid! You know that, right? Manager Zhou patted the table for a while, spread his hands for a while, and his unhappiness condensed into folds on his face.

"I know, thank you Sister Zhou for your understanding." What else can He Zhiyuan do?

"What about our supermarket, we pay wages on the 10th day of the beginning of each month, and your salary for most of the month in October, after deducting leave and absenteeism, there is not much. But Sister Zhou promised you that it should belong to you, and it will be sent to you on the 10th of next month. The curly-haired woman grinned and nodded in promise.

"Okay, thank you, Sister Zhou."

"I recruited you, and now I've fired you again, I can't bear it! Please be considerate and considerate of me, don't hold a grudge! To be honest, I've never recruited you like this for a supermarket...... Hey, don't mention it, don't mention it, you also have a hard time, right? This is a clear word, give it to you. ”

"Okay." Zhiyuan took the A4 paper full of words.

"You are a graduate student of a prestigious university and a teacher for many years, I don't think this is suitable for you. You didn't find the right place for you, didn't put your ...... value, to the best. So, Sister Zhou, as a person who has come over, dismissing you is not bad news for you - it doesn't count! You treat this place as a part-time job in this part of your life, don't be unhappy, unhappy, and don't make mistakes, right! ”

"Uh-huh."

"There are a few truckloads of goods over there, and I asked Lao Qin to help Liu. Na He ...... That's it, the supermarket is busy, I'll go first. Sister Zhou finished, nodded and left politely.

"Good, good! Sister Zhou, you're busy. Zhiyuan sent Sister Zhou away and walked out of the narrow and low office by himself.

Holding a dismissal notice, the logistics manager is no longer a logistics manager. After getting out of the dazzling and crowded supermarket, coming to the empty and noisy street, taking a few breaths of cool fresh air, He Zhiyuan carefully folded the notice and put it in his pocket.

The second job in my life, I joined the job on September 13, and I was fired on October 20, just one more week of observation, but I didn't expect others to observe the worst seven of my life - no time to eat, no time to sleep, five did not take a bath, multiple abrasions on the body, and a mess of family relationships...... Suddenly, the big leisure came, and He Zhiyuan didn't know what to do. He sat on the promenade on the side of the road, watching the cars coming and going on the street and the distant places, and his heart was empty.

In the turbulent sea, he finally got on a boat, but was thrown down halfway. Sitting on a lonely desert island and looking at the boundless sea, it is deep and tranquil, but it contains unpredictable. On the top of one of the highest hills on the island, he looked out at the ocean of life—who was he? Where is he? What should he do? The melancholy is boundless, forcing people to be dazed.

Remembering that Gui Ying didn't have porridge to eat at noon, Zhiyuan got up suddenly and went home reflexively.

After ordering fast food in the morning, Lao Ma and Tsai Tsai cooked rice porridge in partnership according to the online method at the moment, Tsai Tsai took a bowl to dry, stirred citrine crystal, fragrant, viscous and not lumpy, red dates and wolfberries chopped and dotted among them, a few rubs of sesame seeds released a unique incense.

"It's so easy to boil porridge!" Tsai Tsai was amazed.

"Yes, I didn't know before. Come, put ice in the basin. Gui Ying was hungry, so Lao Ma put some cold water in a big basin and wanted Gui Ying to eat this bowl of rice porridge as soon as possible.

The two of them were like treasures, talking about a bowl of rice porridge and enjoying the taste of success.

"Come, scoop two more bowls for Yangyang and Xuecheng." The old horse was scooping porridge and instructed the boy

"Drink porridge! After learning, you two come out and drink porridge here! Tsai Tsai carried two halves of rice porridge and put them on the table.

"Ou Yo is amazing, the boy will still cook porridge now, when he grows up, his aunt is impressed!" Bao Xiaoxing, who came to visit Gui Ying after lunch, praised him in the room.

When Zhiyuan opened the door and came back, the two children were drinking porridge in the living room, and after entering the room, Gui Ying was also drinking warm rice porridge.

"Who cooked the porridge?" Zhiyuan smiled faintly, surprised in his heart.

"Why are you back?" The husband and wife spoke together.

"Tsai and boiled."

"Oh! Hyosung is here. After saying hello, Zhiyuan slowly sat down next to Gui Ying, scratching the back of his head: "I...... I quit my job at the supermarket. ”

Gui Ying looked at the rice porridge silently, took two sips, and looked up at Hyosung: "The work of Zhiyuan Supermarket is too hard, I am too busy to take care of the two children, it is better to quit!" After finishing the two eyes, his gaze fell on Zhiyuan's face, the first color of his gaze was warm and joyful, but the background color was cold and empty.

"Do you want to drink some porridge, the old man can cook it okay!" Gui Ying asked Hyosung with porridge.

"No, I'm here for dinner. Jintang'er took the exam, no one took care of Xuecheng, I took him to the clothing store in the morning, and I was hungry at eleven o'clock, hehe......" Hyosung held his hands between his legs, and saw the embarrassment of her husband and wife.

A divorced woman visits another woman who has been devastated in her marriage. There are many words that need not be spoken, especially those that are noisy and empty words of encouragement, and sitting quietly is comfort and support. Friends for many years know each other, and sometimes they have more tacit understanding and trust than between husband and wife, even if they often don't see each other. Precious friendship is a powerful substitute for pale life.

"I'm going to wash the dishes." Zhiyuan, who felt bored, left after saying hello, and stopped when he passed by the balcony and saw his father-in-law.

"Dad, I quit my supermarket job." Zhiyuan, who was heavy in his heart, pretended to be relaxed with joy.

The old horse poked the ash of his cigarette, lowered his head, and ignored it.

The boy who watched all this from a distance around the house felt sad, drank porridge and carried a bowl into the kitchen, and silently helped his father clean it up. Towards the end, Tsai Tsai looked up and said to his father: "Dad, I signed up for a training class with my own money, and I will go out to class on Saturdays and weekends from next week to report to you." ”

"Oh! Good. Zhiyuan squeezed out a smile and nodded kindly, but he was extremely disappointed in his heart. Lost in every step of Tsai Tsai's growth means estrangement and detachment from his father.

"I originally wanted to apply for online, and the online tuition fee for one class is half of the offline one, but I feel that my family is ...... It's too messy...... Anyway...... During this time, it was difficult for me to calm down on the weekend, so I was ruthless. I missed too many classes in October, and it was too late to make up for it. Tsai turned on the dishwasher and took out the pots and spoons that had been washed from the previous wave and put them back in place.

Zhiyuan was ashamed, didn't know what to do, and smiled and nodded at his son.

Bao Xiaoxing, who is next door, works two jobs alone, raising and taking care of children while paying off the bills; The boy in front of him coldly threw out such a big decision, which caught him, the father, off guard. In the past 30 years, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, all kinds of categories, Zhiyuan has boasted that he has read thousands of books in front of Gui Ying and Zai Zai, and he has been worshiped by his family for so many years, and when he is faced with a crisis, his reaction in all aspects is the worst and worst.

He understands everything, but he won't do anything.

In the past, He Zhiyuan firmly believed: it is easy to know the difficulty. First, because "I don't know what I want to do, and I don't dare to lean when I know, and secondly, because it is really difficult to take action in reality to improve cognition, explore ideas, and research majors, so intellectuals like him often feel higher than others."

Now, in reality he refutes the theoretical him.

Bao Xiaoxing yawned frequently when he saw Gui Ying drinking the medicine, and he could see that the adults and children in the family were nervous, so he sat for a while and hurried away with Xuecheng. Zhiwon sent Hyosung away and cleaned up the dining room and living room alone. Anxious people can never stop, only busyness can relieve anxiety. At two o'clock, the two children took a nap, and the old horse lay on the rocking chair and looked at Zhiyuan, his heart heavy.

If Zhiyuan didn't quit his job in the supermarket, Lao Ma felt that he still had a fixed opinion, and let him quit - isn't this brainless? Work is not child's play, even if it is an unorthodox and undecent job, it should be done well, how to quit it. The old horse is contradictory, he criticizes him who opposes him, and he is suspicious when he obeys him.

When she woke up from a nap, she would stick to her father and pester her mother for a while, she was unwilling to write her two-page weekend homework, and Lao Ma was waiting for her to come at the dining table.

"Bao'er, come out and do your homework! Don't interfere with your mother's rest. The old horse walked to the door of Gui Ying's room and hooked his hands.

"It's okay, I'm not going to sleep right now." Gui Ying held her mobile phone in both hands and kept replying to things at work.

"You're not well yet, keep your phone and take care of your illness." Lao Ma was worried that her mind was restless, which in turn disturbed her body.

"Something at work!" Gui Ying frowned on the head of the bed and explained.

"Work to make money and have a baby, what do you care!" The old horse casually came out.

Knowing that Zhiyuan had to resign from his job, Gui Ying was furious when she heard this, knowing that Zhiyuan was busy working in the bathroom in the room, she didn't make a sound back, she held back, twisted her head to the side, and stared at the desk in the room sulking. Seeing that her mother was angry and ignored her, Yangyang reluctantly got out of bed and was pulled to the dining table by her grandfather to do her homework.

"Everyone, pay attention, the exam will end in fifteen minutes, and those who have not painted the answer sheet should do so as soon as possible. Attention, the exam is about to end in fifteen minutes, and those who have not painted the answer sheet should be painted as soon as possible. When the bell rings, please put your exam papers upside down on your desk...... "In the exam room at half past five in the afternoon, the invigilator reminds the examiner of the exam time.

Bao Xiaotang leaned over, his arms lying on the table, and his right hand worked hard to write and wave. Today's last examination is "Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism", and only the last big question is left in the book—"Discussing the Objectives and Main Contents of Contemporary Capitalist Monetary Policy." It's a big question, there are only fifteen minutes left, Xiaotang Nunu mouthed, lay down and began to output her back-to-back answers.

I saw neat black letters on the white paper: "Monetary policy in the narrow sense refers to the general term for the various policies and measures adopted by the central bank to control and regulate the money supply or credit quantity in order to achieve its specific economic goals, including credit policy, interest rate policy, and foreign exchange policy." Monetary policy in a broad sense refers to all monetary regulations and measures taken by governments, central banks and other relevant authorities to affect financial variables. The objectives of monetary policy are as follows: to stabilize prices, promote employment, economic growth, and balance of payments. It is detailed as follows......"

Bao Xiaotang's pen rustled, and the whole person answered the questions hilariously and floated, and the content that he memorized some time ago was afraid that he would not be able to answer it in these fifteen minutes at this moment.

Not long after, the bell rang, Xiaotang finished answering, closed the paper, got up and left. When I got out of the examination room, I was relaxed, as if I was missing twenty pounds of flesh. After more than two months of preparation, it is finally over. I took four exams this time, and I don't know how many I can pass, anyway, Xiaotang is quite confident. On the way back to Fuchun District, she bought a lot of fruits and vegetables, and planned to have a big meal with her sister and Xuecheng in the evening to celebrate.

The old horse stared at Yangyang and kept writing his homework, two lines of writing and writing buttoned up the eraser, drew a duck, and tore up the corner of the book...... The old horse knocked on the table with the base of the hookah, and continued to copy Chinese characters with a pouting mouth: apostrophe, horizontal, horizontal, vertical hook - hand; Apostrophe, horizontal, horizontal, vertical hook - hand; Apostrophe, horizontal, horizontal, vertical hook – hand...... A handwritten word was written while reading strokes, writing two lines, and then writing the word fire.

Gui Ying obviously felt much better in the next half of the year, drinking two and a half bowls of rice porridge at noon, and two and a half bowls in the evening, her appetite was good, her spirit was naturally good, her excretion was unblocked, and her excrement tended to be normal. After dinner, I took a little shower, and now I am lying in bed refreshed. Zhiyuan went out to purchase, the two children were busy with their own work, and Gui Ying, who rarely calmed down, was in a bright mood. The female tiger will be idle, and her mind is full of money.

When Zhiyuan was in the hospital, she had a chance that she would lose her job because of this illness...... This sentence pierced Gui Ying like a thorn, even though she had been quietly wrapping the thorn in a cloth. Ma Guiying was born in December of the solar calendar in 1980, grew up in the 80s of the last century, and was sensible in the 90s of the last century. Now, in the twenties and thirties of the new century, she has no formal junior college, bachelor's degree, and no technology in hand, what kind of good job can she find as a 40-year-old in this solidified era?

She regards a job that should not be called a career as her own career, because she is very sober, and the ordinary, hateful, bad, and humble job is the biggest stage she can build - the business manager of the exhibition department of Ankezhan is her flower board. She is luckier than others, and she should be glad that she has encountered a stage that is more capable than herself. She originally planned to let her performance grow slowly and steadily, but she wanted to face the possibility of a sharp drop in income or even unemployment in the economic environment of Rutz in 2019. Perhaps, the illness suggests that she can no longer continue in the same way as before.

In the business she wants to put down roots and is willing to give, she greedily tries to get all the support and understanding, even appreciation. She wants the support and understanding of her subordinates, not betraying with a grin; She wants to get the friendly cooperation of her colleagues at the same level, not a stumbling block; She wants to get the attention and appreciation of the leaders of various departments, not all kinds of resistance, calculation or ruthless exploitation...... Even if she can't get the support and appreciation of the leader, it doesn't matter, at least she has a pleasant environment and respectful platform, instead of getting a slap in the face of a leader who is many years older than her at her age.

Perhaps, I am incompetent.

Assuming that she is not competent, then do a good job in the last exhibition, it is her attitude to have a beginning and an end. Even if she can't stay this time, she will be in charge of the last exhibition perfectly and as best she can. Gui Ying was secretly cheering up in her heart, and Yang Yang, who had finished her homework, pushed the door in, ran to level her, and played with the few words she had just learned. Children are pistachios, bringing boundless joy to the tormented and desperate middle age.

After playing for thirty or forty minutes, Lao Ma saw that it was almost nine o'clock, and he didn't want the child to affect her mother's rest, so he went into the room to find Yangyang.

"Bao'er, hurry up and brush your teeth and go to sleep!"

"I don't!" Yang Yang rolled coquettishly on the bed.

"Obedient, your mother is sick, don't bother her. Good boy! The old horse took the child and carried it to her house.

Within a few minutes, there was a strange sound in the house, a bit of the funny of the old man in the village coaxing the children, and a bit of the cartoon dubbing artist's tone: "If this person eats the empty grass, he will immediately fly up, running five or six feet high, oh my lord, the whole body can stand in the air, ...... steadily"

Gui Ying was amused by the old man's huge contrasting and cute voice, and covered her mouth and snickered in the room through the wall. The ripples were noisy, and the story began with a person who fell asleep early. Sure enough, it is a next-generation parent, and the love that the old man owes her seems to be all on Yangyang. Gui Ying was blinded by the warmth and warmth of the hot sea, and laughed and cried.

The tears stopped, the laughter was over, and the bottom of my heart was empty. Zhiyuan quit her job, and now she is the only laborer in a family of five. Thinking of this, she took out her mobile phone and had to arrange the next few jobs. She went on a business trip to visit eight or nine key customers outside Guangdong, and keeping old customers has become the top priority of her current work. The woman rubbed her chin and stared at her phone, her mind racing.
