For many people, the work in the system is relatively stable and the benefits are good, and under the influence of the promotion mechanism, many people at or above the senior level look rich although the salary is not high.
For counties with less pressure on life, being able to enter the system is still an iron rice bowl.
At the same time, there is also an interesting phenomenon: these people in the county seem to have "disappeared" from everyone's field of vision after retirement, what is going on?
First, the relationship between people is getting weaker and weaker
The norm of work in the system is often like this: the superior assigns the work, and the subordinate staff runs and asks for instructions.
The implicit power advantages brought by these levels have made the personnel at and above the department level invisibly increase the entertainment of a lot of personal contacts.
In the years leading up to retirement, they tend to take a back seat and be forgotten by their colleagues after the handover is completed.
When others are busy at work, they have nothing to do in the unit, and they seem to have become transparent people.
When he lost his real power, the subordinates who nodded before also became nodding friends. The position that used to sit on the podium during the meeting was also replaced.
Not in its place, people go tea cool.
Therefore, after the retirement of these people at and above the level of the county, to a large extent, they did not disappear voluntarily, but were ignored and forgotten by people.
The emotions and relationships between people are often deepened through interaction and communication.
After leaving the post, unlike in the past, small talk in the office, after work to meet for a meal, there are fewer and fewer opportunities to chat, and they naturally gradually disappear into the work circle.
The disappearance of this passivity also reflects the busyness of work within the system and the importance of rights.
After retiring, they saw through the hypocrisy of those who relied on power to maintain themselves, and even took the initiative to avoid the embarrassment caused by personal exchanges.
Second, the social circle is getting smaller and smaller
Competition within the system is fierce, and many cadres suddenly feel empty and difficult to adapt to after retirement. The decline in status and the reduction of wages require timely adjustment of mentality to adapt.
But at the same time, there is no need to worry about making mistakes, no need to look at the eyes of leaders, and no longer worry about formalism.
The shift in identity, to a certain extent, has brought greater freedom.
After retirement, I lost such a big circle of friends as my colleagues, and the circle also completed the transformation from work to life. Not only that, but the need to socialize after retirement is much reduced.
When I was on the job, I was forced to build a network of people in order to seek more resources and space.
After retirement, the need to expand your network is significantly reduced. They understand that the focus in retirement is on life, not work.
After retirement, people focus more on the quality of their friends than on the quantity.
Have a few like-minded friends and develop related hobbies to make your retirement life more exciting.
3. There are more and more hobbies
After retirement, they have more time to devote to the causes they love.
Learn a musical instrument and use music to cultivate sentiment and self-cultivation. Get involved in the community choir and make like-minded friends.
Calm down and practice calligraphy and painting, and those who have a hobby in this area will spend more time at home after retirement.
Temporary posting and painting sometimes take hours or even days in a row.
Visit art museums, art galleries, performances, and art exhibitions. The places they go in and out of retirement are often places they don't have the time and energy to visit while they are working.
There are even retirees who love to write, spend a lot of time reading and writing at home, trying to write the first half of their lives with their brushstrokes and imagine the second half of their lives.
So for the most part, they don't disappear, but spend more time at home, developing their hobbies.
Another part of the reason for fading out of view is the difference in the range of time and the difference in the field. In those leisure places, you can still see the figures who used to work hard.
Fourth, the quality of life is getting higher and higher
After retirement, they spend more time improving their quality of life and satisfying their spiritual needs.
Developing hobbies, participating in appropriate social activities, and learning new skills are all ways for them to adjust to retirement.
After retirement, they pay more attention to their physical health and establish a scientific exercise program.
After retirement, they went into the mountains, watersides, forests, and went to those natural oxygen bars, which not only better enjoyed the retirement life, but also achieved the effect of increasing health and health.
Even after retirement, they lived a life of seclusion.
In the pure and rustic rural environment, planting flowers and vegetables in front of and behind the house, every day is leisurely and natural.
Since ancient times, there have been officials who are old and take the initiative to resign, let the virtuous, return to their hometowns, and return to the countryside. The well-known Tao Yuanming, Lu Lu, and even Liu Yong and others seen in film and television dramas have retired and returned to their hometowns.
After retirement, many cadres in the system followed the example of the ancients and lived a leisurely life of retreating to the countryside and planting flowers and fields.
After leaving the rigid work pressure, the body and mind are completely relaxed in the wilderness.
They don't disappear, but they go to places that are closer to nature, and these places are often places where people who are busy with work rarely have time to set foot in them.
Fifth, it may also be abroad
Due to the special regulations of some public offices, they are not allowed to leave the country during their reign.
Therefore, after retirement, they finally have the opportunity and time to go to more and farther places and measure the world with their feet.
After retirement, many retired cadres are accompanied by several or even dozens of people, and Europe, Australia, and even Africa are their destinations.
Different from the young people's special forces, they are willing to spend more time to experience the customs of different countries, and can finally see the world from a political perspective.
Just like Mr. Xuan Jun, who was a doctor before retirement, he is 87 years old this year, and he has traveled to more than 55 countries and regions since his retirement.
Although he is not the group we are talking about, people in the system will also go to see the world like Mr. Xuanjun.
Mr. Xuanjun's home is full of photos he took all over the world.
When he first retired, he organized a 30-person European tour, which he led and arranged for everyone's accommodation.
Along the way, he was always full of passion, and his friends were very happy.
Later, as he got older, many friends gradually withdrew from this tour group that traveled around the world, and the old man Xuanjun gradually lost the energy to be the head of the group, but he never stopped traveling.
He took his wife to find a tour guide from the first time he arrived at a place, and then got off the plane and directly asked the taxi driver to be a guide, which not only enriched his experience, broadened his vision, and became stronger in communication skills.
After retirement, they not only shut themselves in the house and feel sad, but also continue to love life and expand the depth and breadth of life in their own way.
In various tourist attractions, it is common to see "sunset red" tour groups, they go in groups of three or five, to those places that they once wanted to go but did not have the time and opportunity to go.
After retirement, they have never disappeared, they have gone to more, farther and better destinations, making the life that was originally filled with work more colorful and meaningful.
Sixth, the company of relatives is getting closer and closer
At present, the retirement age in the system is around 60 years old, and most of the children of retirees at that age have already started a family, and they have reached the age of becoming grandparents after retirement.
When I was young, I struggled at my job and worked overtime desperately in order to be promoted and complete tasks.
In the children's composition, they are family members who rarely see each other, and every day the children just wake up, they have already gone to work, and when they come back from overtime, the children have already fallen asleep.
When they reach a certain age, they often talk about children: where do children go to school and how are they doing academically? What are the awards you have won and what are your plans for the future?
When they are young, although they don't have much time to spend with their children, they attach great importance to their children's education.
In the era when work discipline was not so strict, after the title of the children's gold list, they held a big banquet for their children, and they wanted all colleagues to know that their children had the ability.
Working in the system, they are well aware of the development prospects in small counties, and when their children get ahead in big cities, they often expect their children to stay in big cities to develop.
Parents who have spent less time with their children since their early childhood finally have a lot of time to spend with their children after retirement.
A large number of them, after retirement, sell their properties in small counties and go to the cities where their children live with their savings.
Those places are also their longed-for second home.
Retired cadres who disappeared in small counties and towns even shined in big cities, reopened new careers, and made their later life more meaningful.
There are also some cadres in the system who, after retirement, have become full-time "nannies", and grandparents who are over 60 years old have taken on the heavy responsibility of watching their grandchildren after retirement.
In squares, parks, and playgrounds, you can see gray-haired old people everywhere, leading toddlers.
The companionship that was once missing in his children is now more devoted to his grandchildren.
The system is now like a wall, people outside the wall want to get in, and people inside the wall want to retire.
Everyone's pursuit of life is different, in a small county, too many people also have to work steadily, ordinary life, can enter the system after the same work mode, it is easy to wear down people's fighting spirit.
The level and rights that have been exchanged for a lifetime of poverty will disappear at the moment of retirement, and what can really be retained is the inner persistence and yearning for freedom.
Our lives should not be filled with work, and if we are masters of our lives, we will not see retirement as a relief.
In the process of work, we should also learn to cultivate hobbies, make our social circle tend to be pure, go to more and farther places after work, cleanse our souls, and release all kinds of pressure at work. Life is not only about what is in front of you, but also about seeing poetry and distance.
