My name is Chen Tingwen, I graduated from a 211 university more than ten years ago, and when I graduated, a large company happened to come to the school to recruit, and I was lucky enough to become a member of this large company.
Our large enterprise, headquartered in the provincial capital, has countless secondary and tertiary branches, more than 10,000 employees, hundreds of billions of assets, and the company plays a pivotal role in the industry.
In the enterprise, there is an unspoken rule, generally 985 or more schools and graduate graduates can stay in the head office, the rest are to go to the secondary or tertiary branches, of course, there are also individual in the secondary or tertiary branches for a few years to transfer to the company's headquarters.
I'm a person, my professional performance in school has been in the top 15% of the whole department, the basic professional knowledge is relatively solid, while learning professional knowledge, I also like to publish some articles in my spare time, in my sophomore year, I was also elected as the president of the school's literature club, and my writing skills are also passable.
After coming to the branch, first in the production and operation department, while doing a good job in daily work, I also like to summarize the gains and losses in the work, record these gains and losses and process them into articles, and then submit them to the head office, and many reports on the works of our branch are published in the internal journals of the head office.
Gradually, I gained a certain reputation in the branch, every time I went on a business trip to the company's headquarters, there were actually people who knew my name, profession and writing, and I was affirmed by the leadership, and my career began to take off, and I was appointed as the middle-level deputy of the branch.
A few years ago, the new chairman of the branch, half a year after the chairman arrived, began the first personnel adjustment, I was promoted from the middle deputy position of the branch to the director of the company's office, from the middle deputy position of the branch to the middle of the main position, becoming the youngest middle-level leader in the branch department, and at the same time, because of the special position of the office, in the eyes of the company's colleagues, I have a bright future.
The death of a scholar for himself is our traditional culture, and there is more or less such a plot in the reader, and the chairman of the board of directors uses me so much, of course, the only way to repay the chairman with work.
In addition to work, as the director of the office, I will definitely accompany the chairman wherever he goes, and after a long time, I have also established a very close personal relationship between myself and the chairman.
Of course, when serving the chairman well, I also pay attention to handling the relationship with the general manager, but no matter what effort I make, I always feel more than one layer of estrangement between me and the general manager.
The general manager of the company has been in office for several years, after the former chairman was transferred, he was born the chairman of the board of directors at that time had the highest voice, but often backfired, the head office transferred the chairman from outside, and the position of the general manager did not change.
It may be for this reason that the general manager thinks that the arrival of the chairman has blocked his progress, and from the first day of the chairman's arrival, the relationship between the two has gradually become a little tense, so I, the director of the office, will naturally not be accepted by the general manager.
However, as a middle-level cadre of the company, I have no choice, my position is promoted by the new chairman, naturally closer to the chairman, for the general manager's attitude of not accepting, I can only try to do a good job, do not let him find faults.
During my tenure as the director of the office, two new female colleagues were recruited to the office, one of whom graduated from the same school as me and was my junior sister.
This little junior sister has a very lively personality, and soon after coming to the office, she mingled with her office colleagues and was very popular with office colleagues.
The little junior sister is also a good person, when the office colleagues are present, they call me the director very officially, and when only I am with her, it is the elder brother and the younger brother.
After a long time, I found that the little sister looked at me in a different way than other people, just when I was wondering, after an office dinner, a little drunk little sister told me that she was also a lover of literature, and she also joined the literary club when she was in school, and had read many articles from me in the previous journals of the literary club, so she said that she admired me very much.
With a common topic, my relationship with my junior sister is getting better and better, of course, this relationship is limited to friends and colleagues.
Although the little sister is innocent, I still found that she has some very special things, one is in the dress, although not very expensive, but the dress is very decent, the second is in the conversation, there will never be a dirty word, should be a good tutor, the third is to go back to the provincial capital every weekend, when I come back, I will always bring some news of the head office, from these three points I preliminarily concluded that the family conditions of the little sister should be very special, but the little sister does not say, I have never taken the initiative to ask.
During this period, the work of the office was not only approved by the chairman, but also the other deputies of the company also spoke highly of the work of the office, but the general manager never had any evaluation of the office, especially my work.
In the fourth year of serving as the director of the office, the company's personnel adjustment began again, and the chairman of the board of directors transferred a second-level unit to continue to serve as the chairman, and the general manager took over as the chairman.
Before leaving the company, the chairman took the initiative to ask me if I wanted to go with him, and reminded me that if he left, I still stayed in the company, and the prospects would not be very good, of course, from the heart, I was very willing to go to another secondary company with the chairman, but at this time my child was less than a year old, if I was transferred away with the chairman, the family affairs alone would not be busy with my wife, so I declined the chairman's kindness.
After the chairman knew my decision, he expressed his understanding very much, and finally said a serious sentence, life cannot be smooth sailing, sometimes it takes setbacks to grow, maybe his departure is good for my growth.
On the first day of the new chairman's tenure, I went to his office to report on the work arrangement, and found that he was obviously absent-minded in his report to me.
The next development of things was beyond my expectations, whether the new chairman went to the head office for a meeting or went to the following branch for research, he took the deputy director of the office all the way, while I, the director, was left in the office, obviously sitting on a cold bench.
The company is full of people, the wind direction has changed, and other people's attitudes towards me have also changed a lot, for this change, although I expected, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly.
However, the little junior sister seems to be more enthusiastic about me than before, this little junior sister, who used to call me the director in public, at the moment when others deliberately alienated me, she actually called me senior brother directly in the presence of many people, and did not avoid it at all, I even reminded her several times that she could not be called so, nor could she walk in with me who sat on the cold bench, but she still went her own way.
However, for the snub of the chairman, I still insisted on doing my own job and continuing to serve the company well, and did not give up on myself.
But the time is still coming, the second month after the general manager took over as chairman, I was adjusted to the company's most inconspicuous department, this department has always been the best choice for the company's leaders, as long as you go to this department, there is almost no possibility of turning over.
However, although I was hidden, but I still have to be grateful to part of the company's deputy, it is said that when the chairman proposed to adjust the position of my office director, many deputies in the company have said good things for me, suggesting that I be adjusted to a more important middle-level position, rather than adjusting to the current department, but those who are familiar with the workplace know that ten deputy positions are not worth a full position, and in the end, the chairman made a final decision, and I still came to the current department.
I have to say that the department is the least valued in the company, and even the location of the department is located in the innermost part of the floor, next to the bathroom.
was demoted to the company's most unoptimistic department, at the beginning of the mood was very bad, but after a period of time also figured out, as a rural cattle herding baby, to get to today's position, it is not easy, compared with me who is still moving bricks on the construction site, I am lucky.
Although the future is bleak, but did not give up on themselves, after coming to the current department, I began to sort out the original information of the department, and then settled down to study the department's business seriously, and soon became familiar with the work of the department.
I have to say that the marginalized department is really deserted, I have been in this department for two months, and few people from other departments of the company come to visit the department, but the only exception is the little sister, every time she goes to the bathroom, she will come to my office to sit for a while, and there is some grievance for me between the words.
In the blink of an eye, I have been in the new department for nearly half a year, in this half a year, I have experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, and also seen the cruelty of the workplace, at the same time, I have also constantly reflected on my original shortcomings and shortcomings, but from the bottom of my heart, I think that I am a salted fish difficult to turn over.
One day after work, just got home, put the mobile phone on the coffee table, go back to the bedroom to tease my daughter, at this time, the phone rang, I didn't care, since I was demoted, the call and information plummeted, the original day to answer hundreds of calls, now every day except for the wife's phone, no one calls me or send a message, sometimes the phone rings, pick up a look, most of them are selling the house or other phones that have nothing to do with work.
Therefore, the mobile phone rang several times, but I didn't answer it, but as soon as the mobile phone ringtone ended, it rang again, so I had to come to the coffee table, pick up the mobile phone, and see that it was the little sister calling.
On the phone, the little sister told me that she got the news from the office that the chairman of the head office will come to the company tomorrow to investigate, and all the middle-level cadres above the company will participate, and one of the agendas involves the middle-level cadres of the company.
The little sister also told me on the phone that maybe the chairman will draw me tomorrow, so that I can prepare the speech materials at home and answer the chairman's questions after getting acquainted.
Regarding the news provided by the little junior sister, how could I let the chairman ask me on the phone to laugh at me, the middle level of the marginal department.
Seeing that I didn't pay attention, the little sister was obviously a little anxious on the phone, and told me to pay attention to it.
Since the little junior sister has spoken to this extent, that night, I still carefully prepared to sort out the work of the department, summed up a few experiences on the computer, and then familiarized myself with it, and went back to bed.
The next day at work, at ten o'clock in the morning, the office really notified all the middle-level cadres and all the company's leaders at home to attend the meeting, came to the venue, sat down in the corner of the last row, picked up the meeting agenda and glanced at it, and found that there was no chairman to ask this link, and I still blamed the little sister for the wrong news.
The debriefing meeting was about to end, and I didn't ask questions, I was just getting up to go to the toilet, and the chairman who was speaking at this time, on the way to speak, suddenly proposed that in order to understand the middle-level operation of the branch, he wanted to randomly select a few middle-level to answer questions.
The chairman began to name several middle-level people, all of whom were in charge of the company's more important departments, because the incident happened suddenly, everyone did not prepare in advance, and although the questions answered were passable, they obviously did not satisfy the chairman.
Because the people who spoke by name were all important departments of the company, and I was the most marginalized department of the company, I felt that I would not be named by this department at that time.
Just when I was thinking about it, at this time, the chairman suddenly called the name of our department, let me speak, fortunately last night combed through the work of the department, in the process of standing up to speak, my answer made the chairman very satisfied, and there was a smile on his face, after the speech, the chairman of the board of directors in the venue also specially asked me two questions about my graduation school and work experience, of course, I also answered truthfully one by one.
As soon as I walked out of the meeting after the meeting, I noticed that the eyes of the people in the company had changed, and even the eyes of the chairman of the branch who was not waiting to see me had softened, and this sudden change made me a little nervous.
Good things came on the third day of the chairman's return to the provincial capital, the branch received an order from the human resources department of the head office, and I was transferred from the branch to the head office, and the post was in the office of the head office, which was actually the secretary of the chairman.
One day after work after working in the head office for a few months, I came to the chairman's house because of an urgent document that needed to be signed by the chairman, and after changing my slippers and entering the door, I found that the little sister was also at the chairman's house, holding the chairman's hand and calling my uncle coquettishly.
Seeing this scene, I instantly understood all this.
