When you are young, you fall a few times and overcome, and it is your wealth

Early saturday morning, Yaqin went to work. overtime? No, it is to see Xiao Zhu working overtime, Xiao Zhu has not yet worked overtime!
Yaqin is the head of a small unit, 6 subordinates, all under the age of 30. The one who gives her the most headache is Xiao Zhu, who is not careful about work, is afraid of light and heavy, no matter how busy he is at work, he never works overtime.
In fact, Yaqin also does not approve of total overtime, but occasionally there is an urgent task, which must be completed well. Xiao Zhu's look of "who loves whoever I love, it's none of my business" is really disappointing.
However, in these days, Xiao Zhu's attitude has improved, perhaps hearing the wind, the department implemented the elimination of the last place... On Friday, Xiao Zhu was unusual, did not leave when it was time to leave, and said: "There is a lot of work in my hands, come over on Saturday to work overtime." "What a world-shattering!
On Saturday, Yaqin stayed in the unit for a morning, and Xiao Zhu did not come.

When you are lost, you may look for someone even more lost, looking for answers.
At noon, Yaqin went to the cute seaweed house nearby for dinner. Across the road, I saw an A4 piece of paper posted on the wall, which read "Out of Cash".
The house was bustling with grandchildren eating a bibimbap with grilled pork chops; a skinny young man, ordering curry rice and two seaweed rolls, looked really hungry. There was also a mother and son, the boy was seven or eight years old, they ordered pasta and barbecue bibimbap, mother and son ate next to each other, and discussed something. A sentence from the boy clearly came into Yaqin's ear, "Is it easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain, or is it easy to go down the mountain?" The mother spoke slowly and logically, not hearing very clearly.
The owner and chef of the small shop, Damin, is busy, the blue flame is rising, the chicken and rice are fried in the oil pot here, and the egg fried rice is crackling on the stove over there...
"Is it easy to go up the mountain, or is it easy to go down?" Yaqin thought in his heart, thinking of Damin. Yaqin's former colleagues are his college classmates, and they know each other a little more.
Damin's life is quite dramatic, he once graduated from a prestigious university and studied biology. When he was young, he was keen to make quick money, investing in stocks, futures, foreign exchange, making more than 10 million in his early thirties, and then going abroad, feeling that he was a golden road in front of him, until a financial crisis beat him back to his original form. Nearly forty, he had to find a job to make ends meet, because he didn't have any skills, so he had to "go into the kitchen." In Damin's view, since then, his life has been on a "downward slope". One year during the Spring Festival, he was alone in a foreign country, alone in the restaurant, and he had only one thought in his mind - to go home, just come back...

For the highlight moments of his youth, Damin did not linger, thinking that it was all by luck and was abnormal. Damin believes that when you are young, don't think about making quick money, you should work hard in a down-to-earth manner, and the road ahead will be easy to walk.
This small shop can see the efforts of the big people. There are various flavors of seaweed rolls, rice balls, and mini and large portions; the chicken and rice flowers here are crispy, the fish cake ramen fried rice cake is rich in flavor, and there is a large ball of fragrant seaweed in the egg fried rice... But the business in the store is not very good, perhaps because there are two similar small shops nearby? Damin added sashimi, and the results were not great.
Yaqin finished eating, the guests also left, the two chatted for a while, and Damin said lightly: "This shop is out of cash." ”
"What's the plan?"
"Find a hotel to work."
Yaqin wanted to talk and stopped, listening to his former colleagues say that Damin's body was in trouble and he needed to have an operation first.
"Don't worry, take your time."
"It's good to work honestly and grow up with your children." Damin smiled and said.
Yaqin nodded.
Unconsciously, I have come to the downhill road of life, sink my heart, and take every step with my heart.

In the afternoon, Yaqin worked in the unit for a while, remembering a book she had borrowed at hand, "Ozu Yasujiro's Complete Diary", and casually looked at it. There was a sentence that attracted Yaqin, "On February 20, 1933, I deeply felt that I wanted to be a good craftsman. At this time the author was 30 years old.
When you're young, it's nice to want to be a good craftsman and work in that direction.
Yaqin covered up in contemplation. Remember the first entry into the workplace, working in an economic and trade company, the department of 5 people, and then the company's organizational adjustment, need to transfer one person to the new department, Yaqin self-confidence work ability, did not care, did not expect to be transferred away is her. At that time, Yaqin felt that the sky had fallen. The work of the new department had not yet begun, and Yaqin secretly applied for a job at another company, and at that time, she knew that she was a frog at the bottom of the well and had never seen the world. About half a year later, she was transferred back to the original department. It's just that Yaqin never slackened off, learned English, accounting, computers, and spent his spare time researching, and later successfully jumped to a well-known company.
That experience made Yaqin always have a reverence for work, working hard not for others, only for herself. When you are young, you suffer a little and suffer a little, because you are on the uphill road, to pave the way for later life. That frustrated experience, on the contrary, fulfilled itself.

Look at the clock, it is more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Zhu will not come, right? Ya Qin was a little relieved in his heart. Everyone has the freedom to choose their own life. Besides, Maybe Xiao Zhu works at home? Taking a step back, if Xiao Zhu is eliminated at the end, in the long run, it is not necessarily a bad thing, and when you are young, you fall a few times and overcome, which is your wealth.
Thinking about yourself, it is simply "self-inflicted". I want to take care of his self-motivation, I want to cheer him up, I want to tell him that even if it is to set an example for his children, he must work hard!
In the end, your own path can only be walked by yourself. We are all climbers, when we go up the mountain, we have a lot of physical strength, we need to climb hard to reach the top; when we go down the mountain, our physical energy is exhausted, we must be low-key and introverted, we can flex and stretch, and we must not lose our foot and fall down the mountain. Only by going up the mountain and being down-to-earth and going down the mountain with caution and care can you have a panoramic view of the scenery of life.
Is it easy to go up the mountain, or is it easy to go down? In fact, there is an easy way, ah, this point, it is best to know early.
