In 08, a financial storm swept the world, and I was forced to return home unemployed and idle at home for two months, spending all day with a group of friends, playing games in Internet cafes, shopping and eating supper, and soon spent all that poor savings; Just graduated from high school and was employed for less than half a year, I encountered such a special period; The savings were spent, and he had no choice but to become a gnawing old man;

My parents were local farmers, and at that time they came from the countryside and worked on a construction site in the county seat, and when they saw that it was not a problem for me to be idle all day, they asked me to go to work on the construction site with them; I did a small job on the construction site for two days, my back hurts, my whole body hurts, and I don't want to move when I lie on the bed on the third day. So I asked the children to inquire about other work;

The county where we are located is located in the central Hunan region, which is a small county town that is not big, the market is so big, there are so many jobs, and there are many unemployed people at that time, so there is almost no other way to invest; How can this be good, it is difficult to keep working on the construction site; I, a young man of eighteen or nineteen, could bear that suffering; When my parents saw that I didn't want to do it, they didn't say anything, just shook their heads and went to work. Looking at their gloomy backs, I can't help it, so I can grit my teeth and continue to do it! Just as I was thinking so, my phone rang; When I opened it, I saw that it was my little fat who worked at the funeral parlor who called;

"Fanzi, have you been looking for something to do lately?"

"Yes!"

"How do you find it?"

"Hey, it's not good, one by one it's like running for president, it's difficult, I've been working on my parents' construction site for two days, it's not good, I'm so tired" I replied;

"Oh, we have a position here, do you want to come and have a look"

"Where!"

"Our unit!"

"Funeral home!" I was a little surprised to react;

"Yes! Don't look at this or that, it's also a public institution, if it weren't for the buddy's family, then I wouldn't be able to get in if I wanted to."

"Well, let me think" I hesitated, it was a funeral home after all, and it was more or less taboo;

"What do you think, don't think too much, the funeral home is a bit of a fantasy, but it's all false, those things, it's all about scaring yourself, if you really come into contact with you, you'll feel that that's it" Chubby began to persuade me;

"But!" I'm still a little hesitant;

"But what, our small county town is so big, there are so many businesses all year round, it's idle when it's okay, and the salary is okay, there are five insurances and one housing fund, pay social security for you, and your family can still be meaningful, there are endless good cigarettes, wow, it's definitely much stronger than you on the construction site, you can still have a little chance with the relationship between buddies now, and it may not be possible to be late, and now there are more people competing for this position" Xiaopang is a little anxious;

"Uh, okay, okay, I'll take a look later" As soon as I heard that the competitiveness was quite large, I didn't have time to worry about that, I measured it in my heart, thinking that what to do is not to do it, how is it better than doing small work on the construction site;

"What will you do later, now, right now, where are you! I'll drive over to pick you up now" Xiaopang heard that I agreed, and his tone vaguely revealed an irrepressible excitement, I don't know what's going on, maybe because we have the opportunity to become colleagues in the future and can advance and retreat together, so excited! I was a little happy when I thought about it; But I heard him say that there are a lot of people competing for that position, so it's not necessarily whether you can become a colleague, hey, driving? When did this young man buy a car, I couldn't help but wonder;

I waited a little downstairs on the side of the road, and then I saw a black gold-cup bread coming from the other side of the road, and then stopped in front of me; The van is very long, somewhat similar to a hospital ambulance; is that the body is pitch black, which looks uncomfortable; As I was looking at the car, the driver's window rolled down, and a Chinese face poked its head out; "Hey, get in the car, get in the car" turned out to be Chubby's goods;

"Hey, the young man is mixing well, when is this car ready" went to the car and sat in the co-pilot, I couldn't help but ask Chubby;

"Hey, guess," Chubby smiled mysteriously at me, his big white teeth glaring;

"Guess a diao, honestly" I couldn't help but ask, while looking at the front and back of the car, and then found that it was unusual, this car should be nine-seater, but in addition to the main and co-pilot, there is a row of seats behind the car, and then the back is separated by iron sheets, and the space in the car is actually tight;

"Brother, you don't know the situation, do you think this car can be mine" Xiaopang said that as soon as the handbrake was released, the accelerator was stepped on, and the car drove forward;

"And what is this car?"

"Our unit!"

"I'll go, this, this, this can't be a corpse truck!" I woke up;

"Correct, hehe!"

"I...."

......

Our county funeral parlor is located in the southern suburbs of the city, located at the foot of a barren mountain, you can see the white flags fluttering on the mountain at a glance, and the tombstones all over the mountain make people who pass by here can't help but feel worried; As soon as I came to the funeral home, I saw that there were many people in the lobby, a transparent coffin was placed in the center of the mourning hall, and a group of people were kneeling and singing in the lobby in an orderly manner.

"Come on, come on, Xiao Zeng, right, I'm Wang Zhenhua, you can call me Director Wang in the future, what about your situation Xiao Hao has already told me, I think you are very suitable to come to our unit, don't say anything, welcome to join our big family, this is the contract, you just need to sign on it, tomorrow, oh no, you can come to work today, we have been a little busy recently; You just follow Xiaohao to give him a hand or something, and adapt to this environment first" I just went to the director's office with Xiaopang, and I didn't say anything! The rich middle-aged director handed me a contract directly; I was stunned, this, this!

"That, Wang Suo, I want to think about it again...."I was a little overwhelmed when I pinched the contract in my hand; I thought to myself, why didn't I say this, but I was directly admitted? Are you sure it's very competitive, I looked at Chubby's face with suspicion, and I saw Chubby scratching his head, his eyes fluttering up and down just not looking at me, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. I thought, good guy, when did this little fat fool people so well.

"Consider, what else to consider, if you are not satisfied, you can mention it, if you are not satisfied with this basic salary, let's add more; Although our establishment is limited, you can only sign a contract for the time being, but you can mention the preparation in the future, it will be different if you mention the preparation, wow, social security, five insurances and one housing fund are called to you, and you can also send a year-end bonus at the end of the year. I finally know how Chubby learns to fool people.

"This, this, I'll take a look at this contract first" The more enthusiastic Director Wang is, the more unsteady, there must be something hidden from me in this thing, let's not talk about that, I'll take a closer look at the contract first; I carefully read the contract word by word, but I didn't find any unreasonable things such as overlord clauses or language traps, so it seems that there is no problem with the contract; Then why is this director Wang so impatient? And Chubby, with what I know about him, if there is really anything bad for me, he won't push me into the fire pit.

"What, Wang Suo, can I talk to Zeng Hao (Xiaopang)?"

"Yes, Xiao Hao, introduce us here to Xiao Zeng!"

Then I pulled Xiaopang to the staircase and questioned him, only then did I know that it was the funeral home that was a little far away from the county seat, and the traffic was inconvenient to go back and forth, and some strange things happened from time to time, resulting in several temporary workers who had been recruited before leaving, and now the whole funeral home is up and down plus the director, including 7 people, transporting corpses, building graves, arranging the mourning hall, making up, cremating and burial, this whole set down, 7 people are not enough at all; And in those days, there were several businesses in a row, and they were also busy, and they had to leave people on duty in turn this night, so the funeral home was a little short of people; The director is in a hurry, and he has not been able to recruit anyone; I was afraid that others would have the intention of leaving, so as soon as Director Wang heard that I was applying for a job, he asked me to join the company and sign the contract without saying a word;

"Hey, Xiaofan, you don't know! I've been on the night shift for a week, and I have to pull the business (pull the corpse) alone during the day, so I can't be busy at all, if you don't help me, I guess I really have to leave my job! "Chubby complained to me;

Alas, okay, okay, who let the buddies do the righteous, anyway, it's a job that looks pretty good, and it's better than doing a small job on the construction site, so in the end I stayed;
