Chapter 012: I'm Just a Nanny (12)
"Auntie, have you ever been a babysitter?"
The little girl who was in charge of the reception of the housekeeping company politely asked Zhao Yumin.
Zhao Yumin: "...... No, but I've been a housewife for more than 20 years. β
She was afraid that she would not be admitted because she had no work experience, and although the voice in her head kept encouraging her, she was still weak in her heart.
Hearing that the little girl really asked her if she had ever been a nanny, she shook her head with confidence, and then explained desperately: "Really, just like those jobs at home, washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, these are all used to me." β
The little girl's smile remained unchanged, obviously seeing a lot of people looking for jobs like this, and she patiently explained, "No, Auntie, I mean, do you have the relevant professional training?"
Zhao Yumin was stunned and shook her head, in her subconscious, isn't doing housework just such a trivial matter, why does it rise to a "professional" perspective?
The little girl saw the puzzlement in Zhao Yumin's eyes, and said with a smile: "For example, have you ever taken a relevant course for dietitians?"
"Or, have you received training in childcare, nursing, etc.?"
The little girl was quite polite, and did not directly ask Zhao Yumin if she had any relevant qualifications.
But her questions still stumped Zhao Yumin.
Zhao Yumin was just frightened back by the courage it mustered, and by the little girl's series of questions - she knew that a person like her who could only do housework would really not find a job once she went outside.
Nanny, "it" just said, this kind of work has the lowest threshold, that is, the kind of work that semi-literate middle-aged women can do, but she, she-
Seeing that Zhao Yumin was depressed, the little girl seemed to have the intention of retreating, and hurriedly said, "Auntie, there is no problem if you have not received these trainings. Our housekeeping company has relevant training, you just need to sign up for learning! After the training, you get the relevant certificate, and you can take the job. β
"Then, do you still have to take an exam?"
Zhao Yumin has been hit by her husband and mother-in-law for more than 20 years, and she has extremely low self-esteem.
There are some things, some times, she doesn't even dare to try, she directly denies herself.
Like exams or something, in her subconscious, it is similar to the high difficulty of her son's college entrance examination and graduation exam.
My son had a lot of difficulties for the exam back then.
And she is not as smart as her son at all, and she has been away from campus for more than 20 years, and those knowledge have long been exhausted in the daily firewood, rice, oil and salt, and she, she can't pass the test at all!
Zhao Yumin's worries, the little girl was also accustomed to it, and hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Auntie, don't worry, our exam is not particularly difficult, as long as you listen carefully to the class and work hard, you can basically pass!"
Zhao Yumin is not so optimistic.
Basically, you can pass, that is, there are still people who don't pass.
Zhao Yumin felt that a useless waste like her might be a very small number of people who couldn't get through.
After hesitating, Zhao Yumin still asked, "Girl, there is no kind of job that doesn't require exams?"
The little girl is not very old, but she has a lot of experience, and she didn't react too much surprise when she saw Zhao Yumin like this.
She thought for a moment, with a slightly tentative tone, "Auntie, I have a job on hand, and the customer doesn't ask for any qualifications from the working aunt, but this job is very hard-"
Without waiting for the little girl to finish speaking, Zhao Yumin asked excitedly, "What kind of work?"
Although in the eyes of her husband and son, she is "blessed" to be a housewife at home, but only she understands how hard she has lived in the past 20 years.
After all, no matter how hard you work, you still have time to rest.
As for her, she is definitely on duty 24 hours a day.
When her husband entertained until the middle of the night, she had to wait until the middle of the night, and when her husband came back, he fed him sobering soup and served him to wash.
Often her husband falls asleep comfortably, and she has to squat in the toilet to wash her clothes and go back to the kitchen to clean up the mess.
I slept for less than two hours, and I had to get up early to make breakfast.
Not to mention that in the years when her in-laws were sick, Zhao Yumin lost more than a dozen pounds of weight.
"It's just that there is a paralyzed old man who needs to find a live-in nanny for 24 hours. It's hard work, but the pay is not low......"
The little girl said with some hesitation, because taking care of the elderly who can't take care of themselves like this is the most unpopular with nannies.
Some nannies, when they heard that it was such a job, were not even happy to go to the client's house to try the job, and directly refused.
Zhao Yumin perked up, she didn't listen to what the little girl said, and hurriedly nodded, "No problem, I can do it!"
When the little girl saw her eagerness, she knew that she was in a hurry to find a job, and as soon as she heard that there was a job, she hurried to get it, but she did not necessarily understand the hardships of serving a paralyzed old man.
In order to avoid trouble in the future, the little girl still kindly reminded: "Auntie, that old man has been paralyzed for a year, and five nannies have been changed during this periodββ"
Among these five people, there are those who can't stand not doing themselves, and there are also those who are complained by their families for not doing their work well.
Anyway, this job is really hard to do.
The little girl was worried that this aunt was inexperienced, and now she relied on an impulse to take over the job, but she didn't have to work for a few days before she got into trouble, whether it was other customers or their housekeeping company.
Therefore, in some cases, it is better to explain it clearly in advance. In this way, even if there is a problem in the future, it has nothing to do with her.
"Girl, don't say it, I understand!"
If it is said that taking care of other patients, Zhao Yumin may not be so confident.
But the paralyzed old man?
Zhao Yumin's waist has never been able to straighten upright, but at this moment she heard it straight, "I won't tell you, my mother-in-law had a stroke because of a cerebral infarction, and she has been lying in bed for eight years, all relying on me to serve alone." β
Eight years?!
Hearing this number, the little girl and the customers who came to consult were stunned.
There is no filial son in front of the bed of a long illness!
It is difficult for one's own flesh and blood to take care of their seriously ill elderly people for several years, but the aunt in front of her has been serving for eight years!
