C40 Resignations
I laughed, clinked glasses with Da Yong, and drank a glass of beer. It had been a long time since he had such a hearty drink. Eating barbecue and drinking beer felt extremely comfortable.
Da Yong stroked a string of meat in his mouth and asked while chewing, "What do you think next?"
I asked, "What do you mean?"
He said, "Do you want to take a break or do you want to find another job right away?"
I said, "I'm not sure yet, but I'll take a look online. If it's suitable, I'll go to work. I can't just continue to idle around like a jobless person. I have to mess around and eat. There are both old and young people at home."
"Small?" Where did the smaller ones come from? It's your little brother, right? " Da Yong joked, and then called for a passing waiter to add another beer, continuing: "With your talent, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat."
Da Yong and I drank until 2 in the morning at Little Yang Barbecue. We finished two beers, one hundred and twenty kebabs of roast lamb and fifteen chicken wings, and after eating our fill, we were in a much better mood.
When he got home around three o'clock, he took a hot bath and slept soundly.
When I woke up, the sunlight shone through the window. The weather was still very good, and my mood had recovered a bit due to last night's wine. However, I would still inadvertently think of the Sister Li.
That's right, I know the home of the Sister Li, I know where her company is, so why don't I look for her for a bit? Even though she avoided seeing me and didn't want to talk to me, I wanted to sit in front of her and talk to her face to face. I wanted to hear her say those words in front of me.
I tidied myself up in front of the mirror, shaved my beard, changed my clothes, and prepared to go to Sister Li to look for her. He called her when he was about to leave, but her phone was still turned off.
I took a taxi to Sister Li's home in Crooked River. Arriving at Qujiang Residence, it was very quiet there. I followed the familiar road to Sister Li's house.
I didn't see Sister Li's car at the door. The door to the garage was locked, so I thought maybe the car was in the garage. After hesitating for a moment, he walked forward and pressed the doorbell. After waiting for a moment, no one opened the door, so he pressed it again and again. The result was the same.
The Sister Li is probably in the company, I think. When I turned around and walked out, I saw that there was still some snow left on the lawn in front of us. I remembered that it should be the snow that the and I had piled up together.
Here, two months ago, Sister Li and I had once joyously played and played in the snow. I turned my head to look at the three-storey villa that was quietly standing there, and I could vaguely make out a man and a woman laughing heartily under the falling snow on the lawn.
Then I went to Sister Li's company, located in Gao Xin Electronic Road, Glaya (International) Cosmetics Xi'an Branch. Sister Li's company has been open for a few months, the company's signboard is very eye-catching on the outside of the building, there are a few cars parked at the entrance, I saw Sister Li's gorgeous red BMW with a glance.
From time to time, there were people entering and exiting through the glass door. It could be seen that the company had now completely turned over to normal operations, so it should be doing pretty well.
I quickened my pace, pushed open the glass door and entered the company. An unfamiliar girl walked up to me and asked with a smile, "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
I asked her, "May I ask if Sister Li is here?"
The girl was stunned and asked me, "What is the person you are looking for doing in our company?"
I explained to her, "Chen Li, is your boss in?"
It was only then that the girl suddenly realized what had happened. She smiled embarrassedly and said: "Oh, are you looking for our Director Li?"
I nodded. She asked me: "Excuse me, have you made an appointment with our Director Li?"
I started and shook my head.
The girl said, "Sir, please take a seat here first." She took me to a lounge in the lobby and poured me a glass of water.
I sat on the sofa and admired the layout of the company. This was a work that had cost me a lot of effort, and now it was fully formed. Various ideas and ideas were vividly displayed in detail, making me admire my talent and feel a little proud of myself.
I think if I look for more design work, this success story will be my stepping stone.
As expected of a cosmetics company, most of the people walking in and out of the hall were beautiful women. However, most of them were beautiful women that could not jump out of the aesthetic range.
I waited for a while in the resting area but her assistant Li Na didn't come to Sister Li.
Li Na walked over to me with a smile and greeted me: "How do you have the time to come to our company today?" She sat down opposite me.
I smiled at her and asked, "Where is the Sister Li?"
Li Na said apologetically: "You really did not come at the right time. Sister Li came to visit the company early in the morning and went to the airport, she is returning to Hangzhou to host the company's annual development planning meeting for 2006."
I didn't quite believe Li Na's words, and asked doubtfully: "But I saw Sister Li's car parked at the entrance?"
Li Na said: "I drove back just now, so I sent Sister Li to the airport early in the morning, if you had come by 9 o'clock then you would have been able to see her."
I stared at Li Na, but she didn't look like she was lying, so I asked her: "When does Sister Li come back here?"
Li Na said: "About a week. The meeting's agenda is about five days."
I understand, I nodded, then stood up and said: "Then Li Na, can you help me, I'll go back first, wait till Sister Li comes back, then I'll come to find her."
Li Na got up and said, "Okay, when she comes back, I will tell her that you have come to find her."
Li Na sent me to the entrance of the company. He said that she still had some matters to attend to and decided not to send me off. I waved to her, walked to the side of the road, lit a cigarette a few times to smoke, and threw it away.
In the car, my phone rang. I was pleasantly surprised, thinking that the Sister Li was calling me. I took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
After a moment's hesitation, I picked up the phone. It was a man who asked me if I was Wang Lin, and said that they were from a design company in Xi'an. They had seen my resume online, so if I had any interest in going to their company for development, I would bring my work and resume to interview them on Thursday.
I didn't think that there would be a company that would call me for an interview so soon. Although I didn't manage to find the Sister Li, I was still spirited when I received this call. Because he had lost his job in the past two days, he had been rather bored. Firstly, he had nothing to do, and secondly, he had no money to earn.
I am a traditional person, I don't have the courage like Sister Li to resign and start a business. Furthermore, I don't have the capital, and all I wish in my life, is for me to have a stable and decent job, to marry a hardworking, kind and noble beautiful woman like Sister Li. When I return to work everyday, I would have a hot meal, and my clothes would be washed when they were dirty. That's all I want. I long for this kind of bland but warm life.
Sister Li has been holding a meeting in Hangzhou for the past week. As the CEO of a large company, I know that kind of meeting is also very large. She must be very busy, so I didn't call her or send her any messages.
These past two days, I had organized some of the successful projects and personal resumes I had done in the past two years at the Miro Institute of Design. I put them in a file bag and prepared to go to the design company called Sampo J. Before I went, I also looked up some information about the company on the Internet. It was called Fashion and Classic Design Co., a small company, but it had good results in the past two years. It had a lot of personal development space.
On Thursday, I purposely dressed decently, took out a folder, and took a taxi to the Sampson Company in hi-tech zone for an interview. At the door, I called the person who had contacted me. He asked me to come up to the human resources office on the second floor for an interview.
I collected my thoughts at the entrance to the company, memorized the introduction I was about to make, and went up to the second floor to knock on the Human Resources Office.
Inside the office were three interviewers, who were the CEO of the company's HR office, the director of the company, and the general manager. I sat down and briefly introduced myself.
After the three of them looked at my work and personal work, a kind smile surfaced on the director's face. "You have been in the Miro for two years?"
I smiled and nodded.
"Was the Glaya Company's plan planned by you?" he asked me, smiling as he adjusted his glasses.
"Right." I replied.
"At that time, the client in Glaya also consulted with us, Samp.J. Logically speaking, since you were able to do such an outstanding case, you should be regarded as important in Miro, why would you want to go to another company? " The director asked me gently. The president of the company also looked at me seriously, waiting for my answer.
I made up a reason, trying my best to belittle the attitude and work environment of the Miro towards employees. I said that in this business, only a good, relaxed and joyful work environment could produce good ideas and inspiration, so I wanted to leave the Miro. After listening to my explanation, the three of them were quite satisfied. They smiled and nodded to each other. The director then asked about my opinion on the design, a question I had been prepared for, and the answer was clear.
The interview was quickly passed, and he would have to come to work next week for a probation period of one month. He was paid 2,500 yuan, which was 100 times more than when he officially went to work in Miro. Three thousand yuan per month for the probation period, plus a bonus. I am very satisfied with the salary, at least it is much better than when I was in Miro, and the main leaders all look like good people.
