In the cold winter of layoffs in 2022, Su Mu, who was far away in Hangzhou, unfortunately received the company's layoff notice on his birthday.

After three years of wandering in Hangzhou, how many days and nights of overtime in the dark, Su Mu still maintained the habit of being the first to arrive at the company every day, and tried his best to clean the workstations of his colleagues around him in front of the image of a good man.

But even so, at this moment, he still received a cold layoff call, extinguishing the last trace of obsession to stay in Hangzhou. In this way, Su Mu lay alone on the cold wooden bed and waited for the resignation of the next day.

The next day, Su Mu got up early to take a shower and put on the old shirt he wore when he first came to Hangzhou, got up and rushed to the company to prepare for resignation.

In the elevator, Su Mu pretended to be calm and wanted to finish the last journey with dignity, but as soon as he arrived at the door, the noise of his colleagues asking for compensation sounded.

"Isn't the standard all dismissals to make up at least one month's salary? Why can you only take half a month here? Anyway, we have been doing our best in the company for so many years, and we can't be like this. ”

The bald old Liu on the side was so anxious that he burst into tears.

"I can only compensate for half a month, I am also a part-time worker, each has its own difficulties, and if you are not satisfied, you can sue the company, as long as you can afford it!"

The big-bellied Li Fat man in the crowd shouted with a loud voice holding up the contracts of the compensation list.

Before Fat Li's voice disappeared, the finance on the side knocked on the table and shouted:

"Be quiet! Now agree and sign the resignation contract, find me, Zhang Tao can transfer money on the spot. ”

When he spoke, he didn't forget to point to the dozen or so mobile phones on the table waiting for the transfer and the number of WeChat balances.

The bald old Liu couldn't hold back the helplessness in his heart anymore with his old tears, and the mortgage and his son's hospitalization fee escorted him to the cash counter tremblingly.

Zhang Tao smiled with satisfaction, shook his hand and said:

"Isn't this right, how simple, it's not in arrears, you sign and I'll scan the code to get the money! The more noisy you are like them, the more you can't get the money! ”

After signing his name, the bald old Liu sighed and left in disappointment.

Su Mu looked at the back of the bald old Liu with sad eyes, turned around and sighed shallowly:

"Forget it, instead of arguing endlessly, it's better to leave decently and quietly! Farewell, Hangzhou!"

After speaking, he accelerated his pace, signed the resignation contract, and left the place of right and wrong after receiving the compensation.

Before leaving, Su Mu specially bought a gift to say goodbye to the landlord Grandma Li, who had taken good care of him in the past three years, and then gave away the last trace of concern for the city.

Su Mu on the high-speed train sat straight on the window seat without saying a word, looking at the speeding scenery, and silently thought in his heart to go home early.

The impression of Su Mu was also born in a poor family, when he was a child, he studied hard while taking care of farm work, and stumbled through high school but still failed in the college entrance examination.

Su Mu looked at the high tuition fees and repetition fees, so he dispelled the idea of repeating, said goodbye to his parents, and took the shuttle bus to work in the factory for free in other provinces.

Su Mu, who had been working in the dark in a small workshop auto parts factory for two months, came to Hangzhou with two resigned workers with meager compensation and wages due to a work-related injury.

In the following days, Su Mu was tired of the dark and oppressive working environment, so he rejected the two workers' request to continue the work of the next auto parts factory, and opened the recruitment website to find an apprentice job while surfing the Internet.

After looking for a few days, I finally found a job as an IT trainee online.

Su Mu found the company's address according to the navigation, and as soon as he came in, he was moved by the enthusiasm of the beautiful woman at the front desk, and led him into a small single room full of snacks.

On the leather chair, a charming and sexy beauty in a short skirt warmly beckoned Su Mu to sit down, the beauty covered her mouth and let out a silver bell-like laugh to ask Su Mu about the basic situation, and did not forget to hand Su Mu various snacks to show her care when talking.

After a few gentle temptations from red fans, Su Mu soon fell, followed by a series of loan operations, and in this way, Su Mu became a front-end trainee by mistake.

In the days of being a trainee, Su Mu saw for the first time the atmosphere that young people should have, and everyone is supporting each other to make progress.

Until the day before graduation, the teacher gathered all the students in the class to discuss the upcoming employment problems.

After some old-fashioned cheering, the teacher suggested that we first look for interview opportunities based on our abilities, and finally we couldn't find a job and then the teacher introduced us to the company that the organization cooperates with.

Obviously, the treatment and remuneration of the companies that the training institutions cooperate with are very unsatisfactory.

So in the following days, everyone was busy looking for a job, only Su Mu was reviewing the knowledge he had learned in the past over and over again, brushing all kinds of interview questions.

Because he knows that only by preparing well for interviews can he improve his chances of a successful job.

Three days later, when other students' interviews were fruitless, Su Mu also started frequent interviews. About seven days later, Su Mu, who was the latest to be interviewed, was the first to get a job offer from the company.

That night, in the humble ten-yuan cafeteria downstairs, Su Mu invited several close classmates to a banquet.

Su Mu picked up his glass and took the first sip of beer in his life.

"In the future, we must contact us often!"

In the sound of everyone's clinking glasses, Su Mu ended this last joy.

In this way, Su Mu stayed in this company for three years. Looking back on the past, Su Mu felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

But after thinking about it, after all, I have no regrets that a young man with no education, no relationship, and no looks can stay in the city of Hangzhou for three years. In the sound of the start of the high-speed train, Su Mu soothed his fatigue and fell asleep with his head tilted slightly.

Life is very long, and it looks like a young man in front of him can return to his hometown and choose a different way of life to ignite hope.
