I am the snail

Let's tell a real story first

My first job was as a sales company in a business company in Hangzhou. When I joined the company, the company had just been established, so three months later I would be ridiculed by the leader as an "old employee". As the business expands, the scale of the company naturally increases. When I was getting bigger, one day the leader told me before I got off work that a few new people would come tomorrow. At that time, you should take one out to run business with you and let him learn from you. I didn’t think much about it at the time. Tomorrow, the task will be done well. As a result, the next day, I thought I could choose one of the newcomers, but the leader appointed one for me. At that time, there were five newcomers, the one assigned to me. But it is the one with the worst quality in my opinion. He is thin and small, his facial features are not correct, and he looks completely lacklustre. According to my judgment, he is the type that will leave after working for three days at most, so I was the same day. So I took him to a long route with no customers. I wanted him to get out of trouble on the first day. It's better not to bother me again. That day, we walked nearly 10 kilometers under the scorching sun of July in Hangzhou. But I didn’t find a valid customer. The next day I thought I would never see him again, so I arrived at the company early and planned to go out early to make up for the loss of the previous day. However, when I arrived, I found that he was changing Arrived early, he saw me come up to greet me happily, saying that he didn’t study business with me well yesterday, so he planned to come to the company earlier today. I didn’t expect that I had the same idea as him, and he was very excited to mention him. Go back to the new route summarized, and look forward to a good harvest today.

Tell me another story in the story.

Said that a person went out and saw a snail at the door. The person picked up the snail and threw it into the backyard. The snail hit a rock, broke its shell, and fell to the grass. The snail was lying dying, but it was not dead. It It started to crawl slowly. One day, it crawled toward the door step by step. In a blink of an eye, a year later, it finally climbed to the door. The owner of the house was going to work and saw this snail again. He glanced at it. Say, you have something wrong, right?

So, the day I met him was my "training day", and I was the snail.
