The chassis of urban governance is at the grassroots level, with more than 14,000 community workers living in more than 1,400 villages in Pudong, which has become a solid gear to promote the orderly operation of urban governance. And in this team, more and more young forces shine in grassroots posts. In the residential area of Changdao Road, Puxing Road Street, Wu Yan, a post-80s college graduate, is one of them.
"Gather floral enthusiast volunteers in our community to promote the construction of beautiful gardens on Liangdao. To carry out the work of creating a model urban area of national civilization, it is also necessary to involve volunteers and young people from all corridors..." As a social worker in the Changdao Road residential area of Puxing Road Street, Wu Yan gradually has a clear idea of the work being promoted. Just a few months ago, he was a temporary anti-epidemic volunteer in the Zhengwangyuan community on Puxing Road Street.
When the epidemic broke out in the first half of the year, Wu Yan signed up to join the volunteer team on the day his community was closed. Delivering food, moving goods, assisting in nucleic acid and antigen testing... Every day is busy, and often he falls asleep without thinking about eating or eating. His efforts not only warmed the hearts of the residents, but also made him gain a special insight. "Whenever the situation of the aunts and uncles and aunts is solved, seeing the down-to-earth and happy smiles on their faces, this sense of happiness and happiness is common. I want to continue this sense of happiness. ”
Therefore, after seeing the recruitment announcement of community workers in Puxing Street, Pudong New Area, Wu Yan applied without hesitation, and then was assigned to the Changdao Road residential area, becoming a new disciple of Li Xiuqin, a Shanghai model worker, an outstanding Communist Party member of Shanghai, and secretary of the general party branch of the residential area.
In the eyes of colleagues, Wu Yan is good at combining strip work with "high-caliber students", whether it is promoting anti-fraud APP or assisting in shooting small videos, he always does his work in good order. In the eyes of residents, Wu Yan is an enthusiastic "little young", and Qiao Laihong, director of the Industry Committee of Changdao Road Residential Area on Puxing Road Street, praised him: "No matter what problems we encounter, he is very enthusiastic and can help us, and all aspects of work are well coordinated, which is obvious to our residents." ”
Wu Yan, who studied international shipping at university, has been working as a sports media person before. It may seem like an unrelated experience, but in his opinion, what he gained in college was not just professional knowledge, but also a large part of the ability to learn, creativity, understanding and decision-making, which helped him to deepen his work faster. "More importantly, the philosophy of community work 'helping others as a duty' is very much in line with my optimistic personality." Wu Yan said that in his work, he will turn this responsibility into a habit and into a kind of spontaneous consciousness. "The work is active, the process is vivid, and the results will be moving."
Since arriving at the post, Wu Yan has felt the many things involved in working in grassroots residential areas, but the atmosphere here also makes him feel "comfortable". Sometimes this comfort comes from the assistance and cooperation of residents, "During the epidemic, we and residents are comrades-in-arms, shouldering the epidemic, guarding health, and forming friendships." Now this friendship has added the meaning of partnership, a good partner to create a happy home and a beautiful community together. "Sometimes, this comfort also comes from the leaders and colleagues around me," their careful explanations and teachings make me feel very warm. ”
As a "newbie" in the community, Wu Yan admits that a lot of work still needs time and energy to run in and learn. But he clearly realizes that "the residents' affairs are not trivial, they are all big things", so "if I can help them solve any problem, I will feel very happy for myself." ”
