How much sadness did the people drifting in the north experience?

When I first came to Beijing, when I was alone, I often thought that it was 2 1 century now, and there were still people who didn't have enough to eat.

In 1994, 16 went straight to Beijing after graduating from college, holding 1000 yuan for the last month of college life, and determined not to take money from home.

I rented a basement in lishuiqiao 550, and put a single bed, a table and a wardrobe in 5 square meters.

In order to save money, I spent 25 yuan to buy a rice cooker from the supermarket owner. Every night, stir-fry first, then cook porridge and hot steamed bread after brushing the pot. Basically, when I eat, the dishes are cold, one dish, one soup and two steamed buns.

I was confused when I first started looking for a job. I worked part-time in a hot pot restaurant in Beijing during my college years, so I didn't think about what to do or to have a free meal at noon before I went to be the manager of the hot pot restaurant.

Although I was not a good bird when I was at school, I got 297 points in the college entrance examination and failed even in the university, but I always felt that I couldn't integrate into the staff atmosphere of the hot pot restaurant, let alone go together. Maybe it's my own fate (I was inexplicably agitated on the day I left my job, and I felt that I couldn't stay any longer). Worked in a hot pot restaurant 1 1 day, and resolutely left.

There are more than 200 people after leaving the company. At first, I had two meals a day and couldn't get up in the morning. Later, I had a meal a day to save money at noon. Later, one meal a day was steamed bread fermented bean curd and boiled water. One day, I couldn't hold on any longer, so I went to the West Railway Station. At that time, I wanted to go to the place closest to home, and if I gave up, I would go straight home. That night, I wandered around the West Railway Station for one night, walked to Tiananmen Square at five in the morning, waited for more than an hour, and watched more and more people. When the national flag guard set foot on the Royal Bridge, I turned my head against the crowd and walked to the subway. Now think about it, it was really rebellious at that time, even if there were many people, I wouldn't watch it.

I went back to the basement and had a good sleep. I don't want to stay in the room as dark as before falling asleep and after waking up.

Later, due to coincidence, I went to a public relations company to operate new media, and moved to Tuqiao outside the East Sixth Ring Road to rent a self-built apartment in 800 yuan. When I lived in this big bay with windows, I felt that I suddenly lived in a villa with beggars. Although 10 cm outside the window is a fence, a ray of sunshine from the angle between the fence and the window can only last 65438. By the way, the rent was paid by credit card, and the deposit was waived after asking for a long time.

That winter, Beijing strictly investigated the burning of coal in self-built apartments. There was no need to pay the heating fee, but the heating pipe was connected and every household had to pay it. Just after paying the heating fee of 1200 from the credit card, the heating was forcibly stopped by the state. The landlord compensated our family for 400 yuan of electricity, but the temperature outside was too low, and the air conditioning and heating were basically useless. At that time, I wore thermal underwear to work during the day and thermal underwear+down jacket at home at night.

Those days were depressing. Because of the hard living conditions, living alone in a dark room for a long time has made my personality depressed. During my two-month working hours, I talked very little. To what extent? Until I left my job, I didn't talk to anyone except the department head every day.

Later, my immediate supervisor was poached, the department was dissolved, and I had a credit card bill of 3,000 yuan with me. Fortunately, I have two months of working experience in new media. On the second day after leaving my job, I talked about a job on boss, interviewed and went to work normally, met a group of interesting friends, and also gave me a new understanding of the workplace.

But life has not improved. My second job is in Sanyuanqiao. I live in Tuqiao. Although my name is Tuqiao, I commute for more than one and a half hours every day. Sometimes I work overtime. When I returned to Tuqiao, I didn't have a bus. I got off the subway at Tuqiao and walked back to my village for 25 minutes. Because Didi Express is ten yuan, I don't have it. Before that, I used all my savings to buy a second-hand mountain bike, and it was stolen.

/kloc-On the morning of New Year's Eve in 0/6, sitting on the train home, I think it's really hard to graduate for half a year.

In fact, my family is a very traditional and frugal family, and I always felt that I was always spending money indiscriminately. Until my father sent me back to Beijing many years later, seeing my place and daily life style made my eyes red. But his expression of love for me is always scolding me, scolding me for being stupid, sleeping in such a cold place and not knowing to buy an electric mattress? Of course, you can't say that you have no money, you can only say that you have forgotten.

Before I left, my father asked me to move out of that room many times, saying that it was unoccupied.

65438+On March 22nd, 2007, I paid off 7,000 credit cards and moved to Sixth Line with full deposit and full rent. It was a working day when I moved. I started packing after work at night, and even forgot to eat. I like my nest more like home, and there are quite a lot of things. When the delivery girl arrived, I moved back and forth 30 times. I don't want to pay the owner of the delivery girl to help me move. Indeed, he did it. I moved for an hour and he rested in the car for an hour. When I moved to my new home, I became a beggar living in the villa, sweeping the floor, mopping the floor, cleaning the table, making the bed, cooking, washing clothes, and how to set the computer desk ..... After three o'clock in the evening, I took photos and chatted with my friends: My buddy lives in an apartment on the second floor with big windows, good sunshine and heating.

Moving and returning my credit card emptied all my savings, so I had to eat noodles for 64 days and add eggs of 1 1 yuan. This store is in an illegal building next to Sanyuanqiao Times International, and the government added a wall in front to cover it up. I pass by 7 1 1 hungry every morning and want to go in and buy breakfast. Steamed stuffed bun+soybean milk+egg 6.7 yuan. I go once a month.

Well, that's enough complaining. Without personal experience, I don't believe there are such living people in Beijing in the 2 1 century.

Later, life got better and better. After working in Sanyuanqiao for half a year, my salary rose from 4500 to 5500. The first business trip, the first flight, and Ali cooperated to organize activities nationwide. ....

Later, in June of 17, the current company was introduced by my direct leader. It used to be a startup company with more than 60 people, but now it's a company with 500 people, with a C round of 50 million US dollars. Its business covers super-first-tier cities in China, and it is about to enter quasi-first-tier cities, ranking first in the industry.

My position has also changed from supervisor to manager. I am the youngest supervisor and the youngest manager in the company, and my salary is doubled. The greatest luck is that I have not only gained value in this company, but also gained love. I have known each other for 9 months, got married last year, and is expected to give birth to a son in mid-April this year.

My wife is fine, too. I pried her in. Just together, my biggest hobby is throwing clothes. I asked while throwing:

How many years have you been wearing this?

Six years

Then don't throw it away

I threw away all my clothes and spent more than 3,000 yuan on several sets of clothes overnight. Every Taobao activity festival is thousands of clothes and shoes for me. Of course, most of the money spent is my money. It was not until the Spring Festival last year that I finally bought all the clothes for you. You have no new clothes to wear this Spring Festival.

Now I live in Hualikan with one room and one living room. Every morning, my pajamas are folded and kept at hand. In the evening, my bed was made, and there was hot baby. I never have to worry about clothes. Laundry liquid, disinfectant and gold spinning are all arranged clearly. This pregnant woman occasionally pours water for me to wash my face and brush my teeth. I work hard every day, cooking and washing dishes at night and sweeping the floor on Saturday and Sunday. She was pregnant and didn't have a license, so I bought one.

This year, I think I may leave my job to start my own small business, while I am young, and help my parents transform their small business.

Finally, in the suffering of drifting north, what have I not experienced? Anything that can't kill me will make me grow.

Drifting north is not a eighty-one difficulty, but a kind of tempering of mind and life. Looking back, it is a valuable asset.

Finally, I want to give all the North drifters who are still struggling on the hard line a passage I like very much, which is taken from Fu Juan's speech.

Learn to say to the world from time to time: fuck you.

You have every right to say that.

Don't worry, be careful;

Don't be suspicious, be afraid of sadness, and think about finding a shortcut to get rid of it;

Don't struggle to catch, get lost, and catch your ears;

Don't mumble, be clumsy, grumble, grovel and stumble;

Don't be insensitive, complain, gamble for fun and stumble;

Don't underestimate, be chaotic, be opportunistic, and plot evil;

Don't complain, complain sarcastically, and sharpen your knife when you get cold feet;

Don't nitpick, talk nonsense, nitpick;

Don't gossip, waste time, meddle and cheat;

Don't grab people's eyes, blame each other and sneak around;

Don't wait long, hesitate and glare at each other;

Don't use each other, complain, and be a vegetarian at the expense of others;

Stop torturing yourself.

Stop torturing yourself.

Let's stop here.

Do it.
