Why did the migrant workers pack their bags and go home early before a year passed?

For migrant workers, 2020 is a special year. After the Spring Festival in Gengzi, the sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic caught everyone off guard. In order to prevent and control the epidemic, most migrant workers choose to postpone the timetable for going out to work. From now on, there are still 50 days from next year, that is, the Lunar New Year. However, many migrant workers have returned home in advance and set foot on the rules. Why? Migrant workers said: we have our own sufferings!

Now is the solar term from the winter solstice, and cold has become the "main color" and "main melody" that cannot be avoided all over the country. Even if this is purely astronomical, the winter solstice solar terms have already started the winter in our northern hemisphere. What's more, from the perspective of the twenty-four solar terms, the winter solstice solar term has already belonged to the fourth solar term in winter. At this time, the northern region is even more frozen. Many outdoor construction and decoration projects are forced to stop work at this time of year because of the influence of low temperature weather, and can only be restarted after the warm spring next year. However, there are many older migrant workers, in addition to choosing construction enterprises, but also subject to age restrictions. At this time, they can't find a corresponding job, but they can only return to China in advance and set foot on the rules.

On the other hand, the epidemic broke out suddenly at the beginning of the year, and the foreign trade orders of many domestic enterprises were affected to some extent. Especially when the domestic epidemic was under control, the epidemic spread abroad, and some foreign enterprises cancelled the processing orders originally sent to some domestic enterprises. As a result, the foreign trade processing orders of some domestic enterprises have been greatly reduced compared with those before the epidemic. Under pressure, many private entrepreneurs consider starting their own businesses, and also adopt flexible employment methods, such as recruiting people by order and laying off employees after processing. This also makes it difficult for some migrant workers to adapt. After all, there is no stable job and no guarantee of stable income. With the approach of the Spring Festival in China, some new and not-so-good symptoms are emerging in some foreign countries, which may further reduce the domestic processing orders, thus making the space for migrant workers to choose to deal with it narrower. Some migrant workers feel that instead of taking a break from time to time and not saving much net income, it is better to go home early and find some odd jobs in the local area. Even if you can't find a suitable odd job at home for the time being, you can save some money than working outside.

On the other hand, all migrant workers who choose to go out to work have personally felt Spring Festival travel rush's eagerness to grab tickets to catch the bus when he returned home in the past year. Choosing in advance is also a kind of self-consideration based on reality. At the same time, some migrant workers are ignorant of the real situation of the domestic epidemic and have doubts, fearing that it is not good to consider returning to China near the Spring Festival. Therefore, I made up my mind early and went home to reunite with my family. But even in this case, migrant workers feel very bitter.
