"Son, you know what? Today I got my first college teacher's payslip. The father told his son excitedly.
"Wow, congratulations Dad, and what about your salary?" asked the son, curious.
"The salary was okay, but after receiving the payslip, I suddenly had some doubts about my identity. The father said a little helplessly.
"Why?" the son asked, puzzled.
My father explained with a wry smile, "Because in this university, I found that my salary was much lower than that of other colleagues, even less than some of the younger teaching assistants. ”
"What can I do?" the son asked with concern.
The father sighed, "I don't know either, maybe I should talk to the school." ”
After this conversation, the father is caught up in thinking and struggling with his identity. He began to feel that his status and treatment in the university were not as noble as he had imagined.
Whenever my father walked into the classroom and saw a group of young teaching assistants teaching energetically, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed about his work. He began to wonder how he could face this challenge as a senior teacher.
At a faculty meeting, my father raised his concerns. "I found that my salary was significantly lower than that of other colleagues, does that mean that my position in the school is not valued?" he candidly expressed his concerns to the school authorities.
After listening to my father's speech, the school representative expressed his understanding and promised to look at the issue carefully. They said that the school has always been committed to treating every faculty member and staff member fairly, and will never treat them unfairly because of age or other factors.
After a period of communication and negotiation, the school finally adjusted the father's salary and optimized and improved the salary system to a certain extent. My father also gradually regained his awareness and confidence in his identity.
Through this experience, my father deeply realized that self-awareness and challenges are inevitable in the workplace. It is important to face problems bravely, maintain good communication with the organization, and solve difficulties together in order to continue to grow and develop in your career.
