Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home

It was still early in the afternoon, so the personnel from the human resources department asked Luo Cheng to walk around the factory casually.

"Luo Cheng, don't look at it. We only have a few dozen repairmen in the factory, but in fact, less than half of them have formal establishment."

"Ah, this~~."

Luo Cheng was told by Wang Bo from the Human Resources Department who showed him around that he didn't react. The language seemed to be organized a little differently. Luo Cheng thought he was saying that despite the small number of people, they were actually organized. This is more like a cross talk joke. Although we make less money, we work hard. If it means that work is easy, then this is a normal statement.

Sure enough, they are doing human affairs, and the way of saying things is different.

However, Luo Cheng was also curious as to why there were so few formal employees. According to the personnel department, at least half of the people in the maintenance department were formal.

The people in the human resources department of the repair shop are also boring. Units like the repair shop don't recruit many workers, but they have various departments, so even if there are only two people in the human resources department, they are relatively idle. It was not easy for a new person to arrive, and he took the initiative to receive him. When he heard that Luo Cheng wanted to know about the workers in the factory, he naturally told him everything he knew.

In fact, when the Ngee Ann car repair shop was first established, there were only a dozen people in total. That's not much to do. There are only a few dozen cars in Ngee Ann City, no matter how big or small they are. Even if the cars these days have poor performance and break down easily, they are not enough to keep a dozen people busy. Many cars have problems and most of them are minor.

But a city cannot do without a car repairman. If the car breaks down, it cannot be taken to another city to be repaired, or it can be hired from other places.

So at the beginning, the auto repair shop was not very busy. Later, tractors, sidecars and other vehicles were repaired. In addition, many cars could not start and needed to be repaired at home. This was a waste of time on the road, so we hired some more. staff.

The employees recruited are basically recruited as apprentices. There is no formal work establishment. The salary is more than 30 yuan a month, which is not bad.

This also means that when Luo Cheng comes, even if he is only an official third-level repairman, his status is more than half of the people. In the future, as long as he recognizes people clearly, as Luo Cheng is a formal worker, if he needs to repair cars in the future, he can directly call those 'apprentices' to do some unskilled and laborious tasks. For example, when changing tires or disassembling things, if you are not afraid of being imitated by others, you can even just talk without using your hands.

Hearing this, Luo Cheng felt happy in his heart. He had just seen that the operating space in the factory was not small, but most of it was operated by manpower. To remove a screw, people had to slowly tighten it with a wrench, not like the later generations. Impact drill specially designed for loading and unloading screws.

There are no lifts, pistol drills, spray painting, and even some areas that were deformed due to impact were manually knocked flat after disassembly, and sewn and mended. The traces of repairs are very obvious.

In later generations, car repair has been operated through various equipment and has become a technical job that does not require much effort. As for the car repairmen of this era, it is not enough if they have skills. It is still a labor of strength, and it is not enough if they are weak.

It's good if someone listens to the command. I don't have to worry about others stealing my skills in repairing cars.

We walked around the workshop, and then took him to the finance department and logistics department to identify people. After the salary was paid, he asked the finance department. If he needed anything, he asked the logistics department. As for the factory director, unfortunately, the factory director went to repair cars, and as a sixth-level repairman, the factory director also had to work.

The finance department received three cents of money (it was six cents in the 1980s) to pay for living in a guest house. This money was originally regarded as reception expenses. In fact, even if it was an advance, it was not Luo Cheng who paid it in advance. How could there be any report that he had just come to work? Just advance the money yourself to stay in the guest house.

When traveling these days, the main places to stay are guest houses and hotels. They are all state-run, but guest houses are cheaper. However, you need a certificate to stay in a guest house, and they do not accept ordinary people.

People from rural areas need a certificate from the village to go to the city for business, but this proves that they cannot stay in a guest house, but can stay in a hotel. Hotels are more expensive and messy.

As for a guest house, which is used for reception purposes, it must have a certificate issued by the work unit, or if you have a grade and a work permit, you do not need a certificate issued by the work unit. The certificate is usually issued for business trips or receptions, and Luo Cheng is the one who is being received.

Without this certificate, it means that you are on business and just want to stay in a guest house. Ordinary workers cannot do it even if they have a work permit. This provision was not gradually liberalized until around the 1980s.

After eating in the factory cafeteria, Luo Cheng declined the comrades in the personnel department who wanted to send him to the guest house. People in this era are really enthusiastic, but they are all off work. They also know the location of the guest house very clearly. It is not far from the car repair shop. There are still a few places in Ngee Ann City that serve as reception functions.

The food in the cafeteria tastes average, but Luo Cheng thinks it is delicious. This is a logically contradictory and wrong thought, but it happened.

After the sudden change in the world, Luo Cheng actually never had a meal that was oily or even salty. According to the taste of later generations, the food in the repair shop canteen is very ordinary, there is no seasoning, and the fried food is relatively bland.

Roast potatoes, Chinese cabbage, radishes and the like. There were no meat dishes, but Luo Cheng was unlucky. In fact, the canteen occasionally had meat dishes. This is also a car repair shop. If it were some other factories, it would be normal not to see meat and fish once in a month or two in the past two years.

Although it is a vegetarian dish, it is stir-fried and requires a lot of oil and salt. This made Luo Cheng eat the food. He thought it tasted ordinary, but his body sent out a 'delicious' signal. Including the day he was discharged from the army, Luo Cheng had lived in this era for four days, but it was only four days, and Luo Cheng was already craving for meat.

It's getting dark quickly now, and the tasks in the factory are not heavy, so there is no need to work overtime. The workers packed up their things and left work one after another. Luo Cheng also followed them out of the factory and went to the guest house.

During this time, Luo Cheng also witnessed the trend of getting off work in this era. When I came to the repair shop to report, I didn’t see many people on the road, but now it’s really crowded.

Occasionally someone would pass by on a bicycle. Even if he looked like a middle-aged uncle, Luo Cheng would feel so handsome. Everyone walks on two legs, but you ride a bicycle. Not to mention other people of this era, Luo Cheng, who came from later generations, had a strong desire for bicycles after experiencing a few days when he had to rely on his legs to go anywhere.

If you really want a bicycle, it's not just to show off, but simply because you think it can be used for transportation.

Many workers are wearing various similar styles of work clothes. It is difficult to distinguish the corresponding unit and factory just from the work clothes. The color of work clothes these days is mostly gray, and the leaders usually wear dark blue or Chinese tunic suits.

Although life is difficult, the spiritual satisfaction of people in this generation is no less than that of people in later generations. Most of them walk together, talk and laugh.

After watching for a long time, Luo Cheng accepted the fact that they were all wearing work clothes and the styles were old-fashioned. It was difficult to stand out from the crowd by relying on their backs, body shapes, etc., to see a beautiful woman that stood out to everyone. Everything in the TV series is indeed a lie. If you want to be beautiful these days, you really have to be naturally beautiful.

Originally, we were going to count the rewards and monthly tickets at 12 o'clock in the evening to arrange additional updates, but we didn't explain it at the beginning. I want everyone to give a reward of 100 per person, which is only 1 yuan, and we can make some achievements together. If you give a reward of 1,000, you can get a monthly pass. I don’t expect my brother to give me a reward of 5,000.

I have received a lot now, and I will give you separate statistics when the time comes. I will not underreport, and I will do what I promised, but I have to average it out, otherwise I will have a lot of fun on the first day. Originally there were two chapters per week, which is fourteen chapters. I gave up the new book list that was missing a week, and changed it to three updates a day, or even more occasionally, based on rewards and monthly tickets. But I can't do it all in one day. If my grades go up, I have to stay for a few days.

Because I have received more than 16,000 rewards, more than three chapters have to be added. After today’s chapter, I have to add two more chapters.

For the time being, we will only count the number of 3 days. You can schedule it as long as you want. Please be restrained and just participate for a little fun. Each person will receive a reward of 100. Just participate. Stop doing big things.

In the afternoon and into the evening, I will be busy coding.
