Jiang Qin finished speaking, smiled at the three of them, and left.
Chairman Jiang, always upright and steady, treated everyone equally even knowing he was being targeted, truly a model leader.
Tian Xiang secretly admired this.
After Jiang Qin left, Li Huai cleared his throat and said a few words as well.
The main focus was to arrange everyone’s upcoming work.
The Internal Affairs Departnt originally had two people.
One was an old man, around fifty, wearing black-rimd glasses, nad Feng Rui. Since he used to be a teacher when he was younger, everyone called him Mr. Feng.
The other was a middle-aged woman, about forty, wearing a blue pin-collar jacket, nad Qu Yingchun. Youngsters from several departnts all called her Aunt Qu.
This ti, when hiring, the initial thought was to have the experienced lead the novices, one for each. Now with an extra person, Li Huai thought it over and assigned the two female comrades to Qu Yingchun, and Chen Yong with Feng Rui.
Tian Xiang, in terms of work, followed the arrangent unconditionally.
However, Chen Yong said, "Director Li, mixed-gender teams make work less tiring. Both Mr. Feng and I are n; dealing with so won’s issues can be difficult, how about letting Tian Xiang co over?"
So her na is Tian Xiang!
Wow, what a lovely na.
Tian Xiang, sweet and fragrant, both sweet and fragrant.
Chen Yong spoke with a little shyness mixed in his expectations.
Li Huai chuckled, "By your logic, your group having both n and won is suitable, but then the other side would be left with only won, how do we handle that?"
Li Huai was young once too, he could see Chen Yong’s thoughts at a glance.
Li Huai didn’t want Chen Yong to use work ti to pursue female colleagues and didn’t intend to entertain his unreasonable requests.
Unexpectedly, Tao Huilan also said, "Director, why not follow Chen Yong’s suggestion? We are in a competitive phase now, and I don’t want to use my resources to guide outsiders."
Ah, obviously looking down on her.
Tian Xiang also spoke up, "Director Li, although I very much want to follow the organization’s arrangent, since soone is being regionally discriminatory and questioning my work capabilities, I hope you can allocate to a separate group, lest my contributions get taken by others."
Li Huai only felt a headache coming on.
What’s up with the recruits this ti?
One is a daydrear just thinking about pretty won, one is arrogant about being from the factory.
The only seemingly decent one has quite a temper!
Li Huai rubbed his brow, then said to Tian Xiang, "Since you’re new, unfamiliar with the work, you need soone to guide you. How about following Mr. Feng for a couple of days to get acquainted, then I’ll find a chance to guide you later."
Being the director, Li Huai often needed to attend etings and liaise with the head office, quite busy.
But there’s no other way now.
Sigh, so annoying!
Tian Xiang nodded, went to Chen Yong’s group, just stood a bit afar, obviously not wanting to get too close to Chen Yong.
Chen Yong didn’t mind at all, secretly pleased.
After allocating the three new hires, for fairness, Li Huai also explained the detailed implentation thods and standards for the assessnt to the three of them.
Tian Xiang: "Internal staff voting?"
Li Huai nodded, "After two months, there will be a work summary eting. The decision to stay or leave will be voted by the entire factory union staff.
Therefore, everyone needs to keep good records during these two months’ work, so there are results to showcase during the work summary, striving for more votes."
This sounds fair and doesn’t seem to have any issues.
But Tian Xiang felt this thod was disadvantageous to her.
Voting seems democratic, but it also involves interests and relationships.
If it doesn’t affect one’s interests, whether to vote for a stranger or a familiar person, everyone has a balance in their heart.
Tao Huilan and Chen Yong are both from the factory, an obvious advantage.
Thus, Tian Xiang not only had to do the job well but also needed to manage relationships with colleagues within the two months to ensure fairness isn’t compromised by identity issues.
Tian Xiang secretly made up her mind, she’d have her hands full in the future.
With work arrangents settled, Li Huai dismissed everyone to do their tasks.
The Internal Affairs Departnt spent more ti outside, with little ti for relaxing in the office.
Feng Rui had the two newcors bring their work notebooks, took them through the factory committee and head office areas to et people, then headed to the residential compound to help an elderly retired lady fix her front door.
Both Chen Yong and Tian Xiang were a bit confused, this was their responsibility too?
Feng Rui pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "Internal affairs involve both work and living. A broken door at the lady’s house is part of her life too."
The main reason, of course, was that the elderly lady lived alone, her children and grandchildren not being around, so she had no choice but to ask them.
The task of fixing the door was completed by both Tian Xiang and Chen Yong together.
Following that, Feng Rui got held up by another elderly woman asking if he found a match for her son, glancing at Tian Xiang occasionally during the conversation.
Tian Xiang chuckled, seems like they also have to arrange spouses for people.
Feng Rui explained that solving personal issues for older employees at the factory was also part of their job.
It’s just the lady’s son’s case was unique, and Feng Rui verbally agreed while actually just buffering, without taking it seriously.
Tian Xiang’s interest was piqued, she took out her notebook and asked the lady about her son’s situation in detail, promising to keep an eye out.
The lady thanked Tian Xiang in advance, "New young officer, you must rember this!"
Tian Xiang nodded.
After completing that round, the three went on to address an incident involving a dog theft leading to a dog cooking dispute.
These issues were first coordinated by the community committee. If unresolved, they called for the factory union’s intervention.
After all, the community committee is a mass organization, while the factory union is an official unit.
Today’s organized society holds the factory’s words in high regard.
Throughout the morning, Feng Rui took the two to various places, recording few incidents. The only actual task was helping the elderly lady fix her door.
But even these simple, unproductive tasks had them exhausted, physically and ntally drained.
Tian Xiang began to understand why Mr. Feng, though just fifty, was balding.
At noon, returning to the office, Feng Rui led the two to the cafeteria for lunch.
Of course, mainly for Tian Xiang, as Chen Yong, being a factory child, was familiar with the cafeteria.
In that cafeteria, one had to get to the window to exchange money for ten-cent or five-cent al tickets.
These costs were upfront and compensated in the salary with al allowances afterward.
The factory’s cafeteria is undoubtedly much cheaper than outside restaurants, costing six to eight yuan a month. You could even afford at als twice a week.
Besides the regular big-pot dishes, there was also a restaurant on the second floor to order a la carte, but that required extra paynt.
When leaving ho in the morning, Hu Honglian gave her daughter five yuan, urging her to buy whatever she liked since she was still growing and must not skimp.
Tian Xiang exchanged three yuan worth of tickets in one go, choosing a stir-fried green beans with eggplant for lunch, complented by the boiled egg Hu Honglian provided in the morning.
Just as she got her food ready, she spotted Chen Yong waving at her not far away.
He had reserved a spot for her, just right with two seats.
Tian Xiang had no intention of mingling with this daydrear, scanning the cafeteria that could hold five to six hundred people, and spotted ng Cheng’an.
