Everything will pass.

The brother just sat down and didn’t even have time to eat the hot pot. Just tell me:

“I finally decided to leave Beijing to work in my hometown and never come back.”

My brother and I met at a Shandong fellowship five years ago. I still vaguely remember the brothers at that time, how arrogant the future is.

Dongge has reason to be full of pride. He graduated from a TOP2 university in Beijing. He was introduced as the key talent in the best state-owned enterprise in the field. He just got a monthly salary of 20,000 and got a Beijing hukou.

At that time, I was just admiring the one, and I was very admired by Dong Ge. I thought secretly that the salary of the household registration was still so high. If I could find such a job, it would be fine.

A glass of white wine, the brother took a deep breath:

“At that time, I was quite optimistic. I always felt that with my academic qualifications and ability, I could definitely raise my salary for a few years. After five years of money, even if I bought an old and small house in Beijing, I It’s just practical.”

The brother is a bit lonely, with a chopsticks fat cow.

“Who knows how to work hard for 5 years, not only did not get promoted, even the salary did not rise much.”

The real reason for him to leave Beijing is not only the unsatisfactory career, but also because he lost his expectation for the future.

“I returned to my hometown in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. I suddenly found out that I used to call out to drink and brag. I can’t call it out. They are not accompanying women, they are watching children, or they are accompanying their parents.”

“I have several small children, and the second child of the family has to be kindergarten. I am 33, and I don’t even have a girlfriend. The matchmaker introduced several girls. When people listen to my boss, there is no room, guess. When my family’s conditions were not good, and the academic qualifications were high but the salary was not high, they all retired.”

“I want to go and think, even if I have been working together for ten or eight years, I still can’t afford to buy a house. I have been working for six years, and I still share with people now, my parents are getting older, think about me. What is this day for?”

When he first joined the company, Dongge signed an employment agreement. After taking the Beijing Hukou, he must have to work for five years before leaving, otherwise he will have to pay 300,000 yuan. Now that Dongge has been working for five years, he decided to leave Beijing and return to his hometown.

Dong brother met with me, he said:

“This time, when you come out, you want to talk to you individually. My brother can’t hold back. I have a few hundred thousand, I want to go home to buy a house, stay with my parents, if I meetWhen you like someone, you will become a family. If it is not necessary, I will definitely not come to Beijing again in the future.

It was a bit sad that night. The two of us were on the hot pot and drank two pounds of two pots. I remember that Dong Ge has been chanting,

“When people are in middle age, how do you feel that everything is different from what you thought?”

Yes, when we first entered the society, we often had ambitions and steadfastly believed in ourselves and thought that we would definitely find a world in the future.

But for three or five years, many truths will be presented to us in an unusually cruel way, and many people’s ideas will change.

There is a lot of truth about life, and I know that it is much better than knowing it later.

Poor fortune-telling and rich incense,Life success depends on direction

There is a saying that is good, “the poor fortune tells the rich and burns, the success of life depends on the direction.”

The meaning of this sentence is that the poor prefer fortune telling and want to know how to become rich; and because the rich have everything, they are more inclined to burn incense and worship Buddha, and ask God to bless everything they have.

Everyone has their own needs, and only when they are looking for the direction of their struggle, can they live a happy life.

In the present society, there is a neglected truth: except for a handful of wizards who are suitable for changing the world and building a world of greatness, the work of the vast majority of people is nothing but a means of earning a living.

It’s not that you should lose your dreams and feelings, but that your work will ultimately serve your life. If you can’t even meet the basic needs of life, then what do you pursue in the so-called high-status, stable, and affectionate work? What is the meaning?

“The work of most people is just a means of earning a living.”

The vast majority of people, especially the children of the cold, need money precisely.

A lot of people don’t realize this reality. They choose their career path by abandoning their real needs. When they choose their work, they will be confused by chicken soup and local customs. Choose a road that does not meet their own needs and embark on the road of the south. .

Of course, I also understood this after I stepped on the pit.

It may be a common problem for children in Shandong. When I was looking for a job, I thought the same thing as Dong Ge: I entered a system unit, took a Beijing account, and then climbed up to the first level.

In the beginning, we were a bit ignorant of career choices. Under the persuasion of our family, we had to sharpen our heads and enter the system. The reason is nothing but the future social status, stable work, and bright future.

Under this kind of paralysis, we all subconsciously ignore the potential problem of “low wages”, thinking that with our education, the future will certainly get better and better.
