Have you ever encountered a very shocking reverse thinking?

I was born in a peasant family. In the 1990s, I came to work in other places with my friends from the same village.

Since we are not highly educated, we can only find jobs in factories or restaurants. But I didn't want to go into the factory, so I was thinking about finding a restaurant.

That day I was walking alone outside the Third Ring Road in Beijing and saw the word "Job Recruitment" posted on the glass of a restaurant, so I mustered up the courage to open the glass door.

At this time, a chubby young man was about to walk out. He saw that I was stunned for a long time without saying anything. I thought, Damn, I have never seen such a beautiful beauty!

So I took the initiative to ask him, "Are you hiring workers?"

"Hiring, hiring." He said hurriedly. "We are short of waiters in the front hall."

"I don't want to be a waiter. I want to learn how to prepare dishes in the kitchen. Do you want to?" I asked. I don't like to be seen in crowded places.

He looked at me carefully again, "Yes, yes, we just want to hire a side dish person."

I looked at him and saw that besides being slightly fat, his facial features were also He's very pretty, about the same age as me, but he doesn't look like he's working part-time in his clothes.

"No, do you have the final say? I want to see your boss here." I said.

He suddenly laughed, "Don't I look like the boss?"

"Are you the boss?" I didn't believe it.

I curled my lips and said, Damn, the gap between people is too big. He is about the same age as me and he is the boss, but I am still looking for a job everywhere.

I started learning side dishes from a young man named Zheng in the kitchen, but within half a month, he asked me to pass on the dishes every day.

After just a few days of delivering the dishes, one day the boss said, "Xiao Li, there are several tables of customers outside and we are too busy. Why don't you go see what they are eating?"

I had to take the menu and pen and go over to order the dishes for the guests. From then on, he asked me to write the menu whenever a customer came. Isn’t it enough to have so many waiters in the front room? I felt indignant. But he is the boss.

Later, whenever I went into the kitchen, he would ask me to do this or that in the front hall. Slowly, I don’t know when, I became the waiter in the front hall, writing orders, delivering food, and clearing tables. It seems that he only wanted me to stay when he agreed to let me come to the kitchen.

Later, there was a guest named Jia who went to our place to eat every day, either with a few friends or by himself. Every time he went, he asked me to order for him.

He also left me a business card, saying that he had a clothing store in Xidan. If I wanted to, I could go to him. The salary would be higher than working in a restaurant, and it would be easier. I politely accepted his call, but did not call him, nor did I think about changing jobs. After all, I was not familiar with him.

Slowly I got to know him better. He is from Beijing. Since he had no father since he was a child, his mother found him a stepfather. This restaurant was actually opened by his mother and his stepfather. I just let him stare at being the boss here. In fact, he is paid just like us.

And we were born on the same day, same year, same month. The world is really so big, it's such a coincidence, it's incredible. In the vast sea of ??people, I actually met a person who was born the same as myself, and I felt a certain closeness in my heart.

After knowing this, I felt some sympathy for him, and gradually developed a good impression of him. He was born and raised there, so classmates often went to him, but I didn’t know that from then on, he started to Find fault with me every day.

He has a classmate named Sun. Every time I go to see him, he tries to be courteous to me. At first I thought he might be doing it because of the classmate’s reputation and respect for his employees, but then he always This time he started bringing me gifts, either cakes or flowers. I never dared to accept it, and sometimes my colleagues would tease me and take it away. I always remind myself that I am just a migrant worker, so don’t think too much.

Therefore, I was lukewarm to him and told him clearly not to talk nonsense. But from then on my boss changed his attitude towards me.

One day, his classmate went to our place at noon, and I happened to be on duty there. I brought a small pot of garlic and peeled it for cooking. He didn't go to the boss, so he sat next to me and helped me peel garlic. I refused him to peel garlic for me, but he didn't listen, and told me some interesting things, and we started talking and laughing.

Unexpectedly, the boss came soon. He didn’t say hello to his classmates, but he got angry with me for no reason. "Xiao Li, who asked you to peel garlic? Don't you know what you did? Look at your table, it's a mess. Go and put it away."

I stood up aggrievedly. When I brought the garlic to the kitchen, I felt a million horses galloping in my heart. Damn it, I use my free time to work for the restaurant. If you don't praise me, forget it, but you still treat me harshly. It's true that a dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't recognize a good heart.

One afternoon not long after, a colleague told me that there was someone outside looking for me. I went out and saw that it was a fellow countryman we came out with. I asked her to come into our restaurant, but she pulled me away. Go to another restaurant and tell me you have something to say.

I saw that she was mysterious, so I asked the general manager for a while and went to another restaurant.

We sat down and ordered tea. She told me that she worked in a five-star hotel. The working environment was much better than this and the salary was three times higher than this. She asked me to go to work with her. In fact, I have been working in this restaurant for more than a year and my salary has been doubled. But at that time, I never thought about the salary level. I just wanted to work outside.

What kind of rules are these? Is it so serious when meeting a fellow villager? Could it be that if I work here, I will sell it to you? Is it wrong to meet fellow villagers?

Looking at his fierce look, I cried. His mother came over and touched my head and said, "Lizi, don't be angry, he has the temper of a child."

Passion After a few days, I told the general manager that I had something to do at home and wanted to go back to my hometown, so she settled the bill for me. I haven't been there since.

This person looks familiar to me. But he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. He said, "I'm Xiao Zheng. Xiao Zheng, don't you remember me? I came from Jufu to the restaurant." There was a twinkle in his eye.

"Xiao Zheng? So it's you?" I happily punched him.

I didn’t expect that we could still see each other in this huge sea of ??people after so many years. We can also recognize each other. "Where do you work now?" he asked happily.

"I rented a shoe store here to sell shoes! What about you?" I asked.

"I opened a restaurant in the suburbs. Come to my place then." He handed me a business card.

I looked at the title of the general manager and said, "Are you doing well? You are already a manager."

"So-so." He said with a naive smile. "Did you know? After you left quietly that time, the boss had a big fight with his mother. I heard that he stayed at his classmate's house for a month and didn't go to work for a long time?"

"Why? Doesn't he want me to leave? He looks at me every day and finds fault with me everywhere." I am still a little angry when I think about it.

"You are stupid!" Xiao Zheng said. "Everyone can see that the boss likes you, but you don't know it."

"Don't talk nonsense. How could we, a part-time worker, not dare to think that way?" I said.

"Those who are in the game are confused, and those who are watching are clear-eyed. We all see it!" He said seriously.

"Screw you! I don't believe your nonsense?" I said with a smile.

Thinking about it, I still had a good impression of him at that time. When he was not angry, he was considerate of his servants, serious and responsible for his work, courteous and courteous to his guests, and his business was full every day under his management.

Every time it’s time for dinner in the hall, there is no room to sit in the room, so we put the table outside to set up a large area. He is a very capable and responsible person, but it is a pity that we are not from the same place. , destined to have no fate.

After listening to Xiao Zheng’s words that day, I woke up from a dream. It turns out that we can’t just look at the surface of everything. He also has a deeper consciousness. It makes people unable to see his true face and blames the boss wrongly.

Conclusion

Some things cannot just be seen on the surface, but also the consciousness behind them. Just like the boss, he obviously likes me, but he acts like he hates me, and looks for me everywhere. It makes me angry and sad.

Because my fellow villager came to see me, he was afraid that I would leave, so he quarreled with me. Who knew it had the opposite effect? ??Not only did this fail to keep me, but it also accelerated my departure, making me feel that he was an unreasonable person. people.

This incident shows that for some things, we need to think in the opposite direction and find answers, so that there will be less regrets and more sweetness.
