Different industries: factories, shopping malls, schools, rural areas, governments...

Different jobs: worker, salesperson, teacher, farmer, civil servant...

I have contacted people from all walks of life, and I hear various complaints from time to time: heavy work, boring, lack of sense of accomplishment, waste of life, etc. All in all, they are dissatisfied with the existing work. Every time I hear something like this, I can’t help persuading me, because I don’t think there is a job in this world that “wasted time”. In fact, every job can teach us a lot.

There was a middle school classmate who graduated from a teacher's college and was assigned to teach in a middle school in the town. He mainly taught high school English and also served as a class teacher. The work in the school was trivial and monotonous. The distance of more than ten miles requires riding a motorcycle to and from work every day, especially in the Northwest. In winter, the wind is biting, and the cold can be imagined. However, he insists on arriving at school early every day. Delicious noodles and stir-fried dishes cooked by my wife, accompanied by elderly parents, the family enjoys themselves happily. Every year, outstanding students in his class are admitted to first-class colleges, and his two children are also admitted to Beihang University and Jiaotong University respectively. Every winter and summer vacation, students come to visit the teacher. Career, family, and filial piety all win! All because he has love in his heart, loves school, loves children, loves family.

This is the value of work. It's not that being a teacher is so good, but as long as he can work hard, his career will naturally be rewarded, not to mention his family life has also been ideally taken care of. Grateful students visit their teachers every holiday. A sense of accomplishment comes naturally. For the students who are particularly grateful to their teachers, one of the people I know is Ding Yanhui, the chairman of Absen Optoelectronics, who took a middle school teacher to Shenzhen shortly after he started his business in Shenzhen, and arranged him to be a consultant in his company, which is really valuable. , People who have love in their hearts are happy.

I remember that ten years ago, I met a brother—the number one student in the college entrance examination, the top student of Peking University, and the master student of Tsinghua University. Maybe it was because of too much aura. People who just met all cast envious eyes on him. As far as I know, he married his wife soon after he came to Shenzhen, and the mother-in-law took care of the child, which is also very happy in my eyes. But he just doesn't have a stable job. He is proud of his talents and always complains about his new company, his boss, and his mother-in-law's daily chores.... I persuaded him at the time: be more down-to-earth, be more diligent, and talk less. Hard work creates the future, and development is the last word. He did reflect on himself. He heard that he had been assisting the boss of a textile company in exporting, and his performance had improved year by year. He also bought a car and a house. Fortunately, you wake up early, so when you have nothing in your pocket or nothing in your career, don't blame others, but reflect more on yourself, and benefit early.

When I used to work in a military enterprise, there was a young man in a certain department who was very capable. He introduced equipment and dealt with the department, and he felt that he was good at everything. But they treat the leader as a buddy and speak regardless of the occasion. People who don't know think that the young man is the leader. Of course, the leader treated him indifferently. He changed departments and jobs later, but he never heard of a promotion. In the past few years, I went to Shenzhen to do sales again. It is not easy at a very young age. It is necessary to respect the leader, speak the rules, and be courteous.

Think about it, without setbacks, we would not be what we are today. The arrogance and turmoil of the past have all dissipated in the bumps and bumps. Think about it, it is not terrible to have the sharp part of the character smoothed out, and a round life is the best flatness.

As the years go by, everyone grows up at work. Whether it is the boss or every employee, learn to be practical, hardworking, and patient; learn to be polite and punctual; learn to be in awe of the profession. As for the injuries that have settled in the workplace, once they pass, looking back is just a false alarm. The entanglement and loss in the past are all the price that must be paid for growth. Dear friends, everyone will eventually understand that we should cherish every job, and they will be silently projected in the days to come, benefiting us all our lives, and we will know whether we are warm or not.
