198 Don’t Listen To The Boss’s Grand Plans, Eat And Drink What You Should Eat!
Little Ci found a familiar company and sat at the same table as them.
A big brother who was not interested in the annual party hugged his stomach and lay on the table with a pained expression. The employee beside him saw that he was not in a good state and asked with concern, “Big Brother, what’s wrong?”
“I ate too much for lunch…”
“Huh? Did you eat something wrong with your stomach? Do you want to go to the hospital?”
“It’s not that my stomach feels uncomfortable. It’s just that I feel uncomfortable…” Big Brother smiled bitterly.
The employee thought that he had encountered something uncomfortable and was about to ask about it when he heard his big brother say, “If I had known that I would come to such a high-end hotel, I would have eaten less!”
He said it very sincerely.
This big brother had a bad impression of the annual meeting because the previous boss was very stingy. He thought that he would sit here for more than two hours and listen to the usual chicken soup for the soul, so he ate more to avoid starving.
Who knew that this place was so high-end? If he had known that his boss was so easy going, he wouldn’t have even eaten lunch. He would have saved his stomach for more.
Now, this Big Brother only had one word in his heart— Regret!
“Aren’t you not interested in the annual meeting?”
The big brother glanced at him as if he knew the answer. “Am I annoyed by the annual meeting? I’m annoyed at stingy bosses who hold lousy annual meetings!”
This honest big brother’s name was Gong Nian. He was personally interviewed by Song Anrong and had been in the company for half a year. He had experienced the busiest months of the milk tea shop’s expansion. Compared to Little Ci, he could indeed be considered a veteran employee of the company.
After saying his frustration, he saw Little Ci covering her mouth and snickering.
“What are you laughing at? Do you think I’m wrong?” Gong Nian asked.
“Big Brother Gong said a lot… a lot…” Little Ci felt that she had been caught red-handed and looked elsewhere in embarrassment.
Gong Nian sat up straight and said to Little Ci, “Big Brother will teach you some experience. No matter what, what enters your stomach is yours. You have to be like this everywhere.”
Little Ci blinked and looked at the snacks on the table. She picked up some and ate them as if she understood.
“Aiya, that’s not what I meant… Let me tell you about my previous company,” Gong Nian said.
“Sure, sure.”
Not only Little Ci, but the other young employees also surrounded them.
Gong Nian looked up, as if recalling a sad past. “When I first went to the company, I was like you. I didn’t know anything and was filled with all kinds of beautiful fantasies about my job. I felt that as long as I worked hard, produced results, and treated the company as my own, I would definitely be able to be promoted and get a raise.”
“Yes, yes!” The employees were very supportive.
Little Ci’s current thoughts were indeed like that. She really felt that Ting Feng’s company was not bad. The leader, Song Anrong, was also very kind, and the atmosphere in the company was very good.
Even though he had not seen the Boss, this did not stop him from receiving his salary immediately.
Little Ci had only officially worked for a few months, but her salary was higher than most of her classmates. She was very satisfied with the current situation and was grateful to work every day.
“I’ve worked in that company for three to four years. I work myself to death every day. It’s normal for me to work through the night to make plans. I only became a small team leader… This doesn’t make me the angriest!”
“What else?”
“The thing that angered me the most was that not long after, an intern I nurtured was promoted to become my supervisor! He was not very capable and did not pay attention to learning things. At that time, I felt that it was strange. Later, I asked around and found out that he was my boss’s relative.” Gong Nian sighed. “During that period of time, I was overdrawn. I kept taking leave to go to the hospital and almost died at my desk.”
“Ah? Is it that bad?” The employees revealed sympathetic expressions.
“Later on, I understood the truth. All that chicken soup about how we can stand out if we work hard are all the bosses’ lies. When I took leave to see a doctor, he couldn’t wait to find someone to replace me immediately! Therefore, even if you are working, you must not believe what the boss says in totality. Who knows how long a company can last? The body is the eternal capital. Eat and drink when you need to. You can’t be vague. Do you understand?”
“Yes!” The young employees nodded seriously.
Little Ci knew that Gong Nian was not exaggerating. He could be said to be confiding in them.
“That’s right. What’s yours is what you can eat!” Gong Nian glanced at the door. “I wonder when the dishes will be served.”
While the employees were taking their seats and waiting to eat, Song Anrong looked at the mostly empty dining table and knew that they had to wait a little longer before they could start.
At this moment, the hotel manager suddenly ran over and said anxiously, “Where’s your boss?”
Song Anrong was in charge of maintaining order at the venue, so she came early. Thinking about it now, she had yet to see Luo Feng in the banquet hall, so she said, “Our boss isn’t here yet. What’s the matter?”
“What is it?” The hotel manager said unhappily. “Who did your company hire at the annual meeting?”
“Who?” Song Anrong did not know what he was talking about.
“Come with me!”
The hotel manager led Song Anrong to the entrance of the hotel. There were at least a hundred delivery men standing on the sidewalk at the entrance. The green Helmet looked a little spectacular.
Song Anrong knew that Luo Feng was a major shareholder of Gather Sift Takeaway. Ting Feng Corporation and Gather Sift Takeaway were considered brother companies. She just did not expect Luo Feng to invite so many delivery men over.
The delivery men of Gather Sift Takeaway had already covered the main city area. There were at least one to two thousand people. It was definitely unrealistic to invite all of them, so they invited representatives. The number of people still exceeded Song Anrong’s imagination.
“They’re all employees of our company. Is there a problem?” Song Anrong said coldly.
It was obvious that the hotel manager had neglected the company’s employees.
“What problem?” The hotel manager looked ridiculous. “With the level of our hotel, it might not be appropriate for them to enter…”
Song Anrong did not understand what to ask.
If Luo Feng stood here, he would understand what it meant. Even in the future where Luo Feng lived, people in takeaway uniforms were not allowed to enter many high-end residential areas and hotels, let alone in the recent years when takeaways were popular.
Firstly, they felt that it was not easy to manage. Secondly, they felt that it would lower their status.
Song Anrong looked at the helpless deliverymen standing at the door. Their expressions were not very good.
Many people were unhappy to be called over for an annual meeting but rejected.
“Why don’t we leave?”
“Let’s go… It’s boring…”
“They don’t even let us in. It’s fine if we don’t participate in this annual meeting!”
They accurately felt the hotel manager’s contempt. They had no choice. If they didn’t leave, would they stay here and suffer? Who could stand it!
Song Anrong knew that it definitely wouldn’t do seeing that the delivery men were about to leave.
She walked into the crowd and stopped the few people who were about to leave. “Please wait a few more minutes. The boss will be here soon. Since he invited everyone, he definitely doesn’t want everyone to leave just like that!”
