Maternity homes
Tuan took his old bicycle out of the cramped room to follow the workers who were rushing to the factories to start a new working day. For them, they are people who have lived and worked in this city, and Tuan has not been able to find a suitable job for three days now. The reason is simple because he is a student. As a student, you can't work in companies doing administrative work or shift work because during that time you have to go to the lecture hall and immerse yourself in the dry presentations of the respected old professor.
Also talking about student jobs, of course Tuan once tried for a job at a coffee shop named X. Carrying things in general is quite easy, but it seems that people do not choose to do something that is painful. On the first day, he broke five glasses, and on the second day, while running the table, Tuan spilled twice as many glasses as the previous day. The manager saw that and quickly signed the paper for him and invited him home. What they mean is straight dismissal without pay.
Speaking of this morning, Tuan took advantage of the time he was on holiday, determined to get a new job in an industrial park about a kilometer away from his place of residence. That said, from the moment he left the room, he probably went to more than a dozen companies to submit documents, but all of them let Tuan fall right out of the protection zone.
Saddened, Tuan took the documents and threw them away, but thinking about his parents having to save every penny to send to their son to pay for his student life, he couldn't bear it. After all, the two of them are old and their family is one of the poorest in the village. Not to mention the fact that down below, Tuan also has a younger brother named Tu who just entered tenth grade this year so he still needs financial help from him and his parents. Well, the two brothers both study well and have excellent achievements, so it doesn't make those two parents worry too much.
There were also a few times when the Tuan brothers expressed their desire to drop out of school and find a job to help the family. But they were all almost beaten to death by Mr. Hung, whose words are still a guideline for Tuan.
_ Leave your father, study... you have to study to become a son. If you want to change your life, you must have knowledge. No one is stupid enough to make a career.
If you want to be rich, you must have solid foundational knowledge. That saying followed Tuan throughout his high school years. Until now, it is still something that reminds him to strive harder as a freshman. But in this world, there is still a saying that: "Only the truth can sustain the religion." If you're hungry, you can't break it open with knowledge or sleep.
What can I eat but the money I earned from the bamboo baskets he woven at home? Tuan really feels unbearable. He told himself that in the near future, his family would not be able to send money for his living expenses. After thinking about it, Tuan put the other stack of papers in the cart and continued pedaling. The old man used to say "God does not disappoint people" as he started to turn the car back to his room, when suddenly Tuan saw a notice on the pillar where people often posted recruitment notices. I'm looking for one people.
_ Looks like it's the last chance.
Tuan whispered when he saw there was a newsletter recruiting warehouse security guards, the recruitment unit for company X was located at the end of this industrial park. So he just went straight to company X and gave the documents to the old guard guarding the gate there. This person looked at him once and said:
_ Are you a new student from your hometown?
_ Yes, I just went to university in province Z.
Tuan replied, the security guard approached him and patted his shoulder and said:
_ Going to college and looking for a part-time job, this guy is quite attentive. Let me tell you again later, if possible, you can choose to work day shifts to go to school. But you'll have to take turns working the night shift every month, can you do it?
The guard said, then looked at Tuan with his eyes as if he were hiding something.
_ Please help me, I can do the night shift. In my hometown, I stay up and watch shrimp all the time.
_ Yes, that's fine. What's your name, Phong?
_ My name is Tuan.
Tuan bowed slightly to politely answer, the two exchanged a few more words and then went inside the office. Tiep Tuan is a girl probably seven or eight years older than him. The content of the interview is simply asking a few routine questions about your resume and the regulations that need to be followed in the company. The clause that Tuan must memorize is fire and explosion prevention because in this factory the only product produced is synthetic fabric. The material is very flammable, so the employee wearing a tight office suit kept repeating the sentence:
_ You should remember that smoking is not allowed here.
Until Tuan took the car out and left, those words were still ringing in his ears, but that wasn't as important as the fact that he could come to work right away tomorrow. The salary for the first month of probation was only over three million VND, not much, but it seemed enough for him to cover a part of his student life. As soon as he returned to his room, Tuan immediately called home to inform him that he had found a part-time job to help make some money for his family. Lying for a while reading a book on the human mind of a certain sage online, he suddenly remembered the two guys he had just met when he entered school. It's true that when I first arrived in the city, they helped me a lot. Now that I've found a new job, I more or less have to call them to tell them the good news. Thinking about it, he took out his phone and dialed Minh's number.
_ Hello newbie, have you found a job yet?
