Summer work experience (1) Wenzhou

In the summer vacation of June 2012, a major exam in my life (the college entrance examination) ended. I believe that everyone who has experienced the college entrance examination knows this very well. After the college entrance examination, the period of waiting for results and notifications is the most difficult. Every day seems like a year. Therefore, my boyfriend and I, as well as a group of high school friends, planned to go out to work during the summer after the college entrance examination. This was also to relax ourselves and earn some pocket money, because we really didn’t want to listen to the nagging of our relatives and friends when we stayed at home. Although some of them really care about themselves, and some want to see their own jokes, they always hear in their ears: How did you do in the exam? How many points can I get? Which university can I get into? etc.

Under the introduction of an acquaintance, we set our sights on Wenzhou. In June in Guizhou, the weather is not hot, it is refreshing and comfortable, and you still need to wear a coat. My parents didn’t support going out. After all, as a girl, I was afraid that someone would abduct me, and I was also afraid that I would end up in a black factory. I packed my luggage quietly, borrowed a few hundred yuan from a friend, and went there privately. I feel sorry for my parents here. , which made them sad. Departing from Wenzhou, we took the shuttle bus from home to Weining for more than three hours, and then bought a train ticket from Weining. The train ticket was from Caohai to Wenzhou, and it seemed to be 236 yuan for a hard seat (it was too long, so I don’t remember clearly) . Along the way, although we talked, laughed, and played cards for entertainment, we were filled with mixed feelings. On the way to the train, we learned about the college entrance examination results. My cultural score was 372, my boyfriend’s was 346, and my art score was 372. It was 192 points, my boyfriend’s was 205 points, and the second line of fine arts was 180 points. We all passed. The next step was to look at the cultural scores. We finally arrived in Wenzhou.

It was morning when we arrived at the station. As soon as we got out of the train station, oh my God! Is this a fire cage? So hot. Fortunately, I brought a set of skirts with me, found a bathroom, and changed my clothes first. After changing my clothes, I took a bus to a friend’s place in Wenzhou (He Bin, he has been working for several years and is now the supervisor of the factory). Fortunately, there is air conditioning on the bus, which makes me feel much more comfortable. When we arrived at the destination, the China Jukang Shoe Factory in Shuangyu, we were not in tears when we met the fellow villagers. Brother He invited us to dinner first, and he did not want us to pay for it, especially Touched and well fed, he took us to find a place to live, bought daily necessities, settled in, and went to the factory to find something to do in the afternoon. Because I was a girl, he arranged for me to go to the front-end workshop to do line marking work. Almost all of them were girls here, which was not too hard. The other male students went to the back-end workshop, on the assembly line, which was a little harder. After completing the factory entry procedures, we started working.

Because the mobile phone was a feature phone at that time, it could only make calls and send messages, but could not take photos. I didn’t take any photos. The following are the only photos of the factory that I found on my friends’ space. How familiar they are. Morning meeting and morning exercises, red factory uniform.

When it rained, there was a lot of water at the entrance of the company

The company had a year-end dinner, and all employees in the factory participated, and the scene was shocking.

There is no air conditioning in the factory, but a large fan blows hot air. The brand we make is Kekafu, which is piece-rate. The more you do, the more you get, but the less you do, the less you get. We people from Guizhou were not used to the sultry weather at first, and we almost always sweated while working. We have to take a shower in the morning and evening and change clothes at least once every day. We just went there and we had no money. Fortunately, a fellow villager borrowed 500 yuan. In the evening, we went to the night market and bought some sets of very cheap skirts and two pairs of sandals to wear. Living a tight life.

I really don’t know how hard it is to make money if I haven’t done it yet. Although my parents told me to study wherever I go for the exam, and if I can’t pass the exam, stop studying. They don’t allow tutoring. I I know that they had good intentions and didn't let me squander my mission of studying. Later, when they saw me going out to work, they thought I would stop studying. They called me in the middle and said, let me go back. Even if I can't get into the second university, let me go. Tuition in the county (the high school I attended was in the town, Caishen Middle School in Caishen Town). This time I secretly made up my mind to study hard, because high school is really not that hard. I get up at six o'clock every morning and go to bed at twelve o'clock in the evening. Life is as close as two o'clock to the school residence. I can be considered a hard-working student. In terms of hard work, some students in the class got up at three or four o'clock. They are the ones who work hard. The weather is hot and I still have to work. I swear in my heart that I will never go out to work in this life. I will go to college and find a job that suits me after graduation.

The next day, I took a chance to take a break and called my high school teacher (Teacher Fu Mingwang) and told him my and my boyfriend’s college entrance examination scores. He said that my boyfriend was very lucky and educated. With a score of 346, it just happened to be online. With a high art score, it was easier to choose a school than me. He helped us select schools based on our situation. Anshun College’s art major recruited 120 people. He felt that the opportunity was particularly great, so the two of us chose the first place. All applications were made to Anshun College.

Around the end of July, when I was at work, I received two exciting text messages on my mobile phone. ① Congratulations to Liu Guangcui for being admitted to the Fine Arts Department of the Art Department of Anshun College. Please log in to the XX website for relevant details. ②Congratulations to Zhang Jiaoji for being admitted to the fine arts major of the Art Department of Anshun College. Please log in to the XX website for relevant details.

Because the contact information filled in for the college entrance examination was all on my mobile phone, I received the message on my mobile phone. My boyfriend didn't know about it. As soon as I took a break, I couldn't wait to go to the computer to confirm the authenticity of the text message. It turned out to be true. At night , I gave my boyfriend a hard time, and it took me a while to tell him the good news. The two of us were excited for a while, and we could finally study together in the same school, the same university, and later we were even in the same class. So I couldn't wait to tell my parents the news, saying that we were admitted to the same university together. My parents were also very happy, because in our town, there are very few students who have been admitted to two or more universities. So it can be considered an honorable thing.

In Wenzhou, in addition to work, I still work. Unfortunately, I didn’t go to Wenzhou’s good scenic spots, so I didn’t leave a good impression on Wenzhou. I lived a life like being grilled in a steamer every day. , it was still steaming even if it rained. Especially since I am very afraid of heat, I cried twice during the process. Fortunately, my boyfriend encouraged me to finish my summer job. I swear, I will never do it again in this life. Went to Wenzhou.

In early August, my family received the university admission notice. Our high school also knew about it and notified us that we would attend the school’s commendation meeting on August 24. We need to be accompanied by one of our father or mother, because we will receive a cash reward of 10,000 yuan, so our parents will be safe. So we went through the resignation procedures at the factory on the 20th, and we couldn't wait to leave this hot place. I bought a train ticket on the 21st, rushed to the county seat on the evening of the 23rd, went to school on the morning of the 24th, and attended the commendation meeting on time. The pixels of mobile phones at that time were not good, and Baidu could only find one commendation photo.

Thanks to this experience, I learned how to look at a good pair of shoes and not to be fooled when buying shoes. It also made me mature a lot. I no longer waste my parents’ money and plan my own shoes reasonably. Thank you for this summer job experience. Students after the college entrance examination should really be allowed to go out to work during the summer vacation and exercise, so that they can realize how happy they are to study. If they stop squandering this opportunity to study, they can realize how hard-earned their parents' money is and how hard they can do it. Let yourself mature as soon as possible, work harder, and study hard.
