afraid of poverty

Do you know, how much is the salary of the temporary workers in Dongguan Mobile Phone Industry Chain Hardware Factory? 15 yuan / hour. Note that this is a zero-hour work, and the labor service company has to take 2 yuan or 3 yuan away, and the actual salary is about 13 yuan. If you work ten hours a day, it costs 130 yuan per day.

The personnel department of the factory is saying that no one can be found. A few years ago, the people who came from Henan first came, then came from the mountainous areas on the edge of the Sichuan Basin, and from places like Xiangxi, Hunan, and then came from the Yi people in Daliangshan, with long hair and no Chinese, and then they returned There are black workers from Vietnam.

But some factories can recruit people, such as Lingyizhi, they give 23 yuan per hour. The bosses in the Huangjiang area complained that all the people were hired away by these factories that offered affordable prices. They had no choice but to pay 18 yuan per hour from the hardware factory bosses in the Sima area of ​​Changping. But the loss of personnel is still huge.

I remember that when I came to Guangdong in 1997, the wages of workers in the electronics factory were 8 yuan/8 hours, and then the overtime pay was 1.5 yuan/hour. I was working as an electronic engineer in the factory at the time, and I was considered a white-collar worker in the office. The overtime salary was 4 yuan/hour. The average worker can receive more than 300 yuan for overtime a month. I could get 1500 yuan/month at that time. But I was teaching in my hometown at the time, and my monthly salary was 256 yuan, and I couldn't cash it, so I had to borrow money from the school's financial office. When I arrived in Guangdong, I could earn almost half a year in my hometown a month. Why did I go back to teach?

At that time, everyone was very poor. If we didn't work overtime, we would be very unhappy because we were so hungry for wealth. I still owe money for college, so what should I do if I don’t work hard? Behind the families of ordinary workers, it is estimated that there are sisters and brothers going to school, elderly people are sick, and children who are waiting to be fed need to eat milk powder, so militarized management is nothing, as long as you give me money, you can ask me to do anything.

Many people praise the Chinese people for their hard work. We seem to have this gene that is not afraid of hardship and fatigue. I think people are all the same, flesh and blood. It's just that we are poor. It just so happened that at that time, Dongguan established a factory, which gave us the opportunity to make money.

As for the feelings, go to him, we just want ourselves and our family to be safe and healthy, and the children to grow up smoothly. Americans should be the same.

Where is the problem? It used to be generally $29/hour. Fuyao paid less than $13/hour. Americans with fat bodies, they can't say they were ever rich, or at least not that poor. I could only eat meat once a month when I was a kid, and I'm sure they didn't have that experience. Therefore, they cannot accept militarized management. They are more concerned about the health and safety of the work environment. It's very easy to understand. Well, in a market economy, there is bound to be a price to pay for violating the laws of the market.

Therefore, Mr. Cao Dewang, in a place where he should pay 29 dollars and only pay half his salary to run a factory, must have an accident. Patriotic cards, team building, I don't believe how powerful it is. The enthusiasm for at most three minutes, once the heat has passed, it has to be implemented into the income treatment.
