527. Feeling Meaningless (Chapter 1)(1/2)
July 28, 2009.
The imperial capital
Bomi Building.
"Jia Jia, a light in the conference room 410 on the 4th floor is broken. You can give feedback to the property owner later and ask them to find someone to repair it. Don't drag it through today. There are still people in the conference room to use it at night."
"Okay Sister Ying." Jia Jiajia agreed.
Jia Jiajia, 21 years old this year, just joined the company in July this year, and is now in the engine department of Bomi Company's 4th floor
Administrative Assistant.
The name sounds pretty good, but colleagues on this floor call her little secretary more.
To be precise, the main responsibility of this position is to provide colleagues in the company with convenience beyond their work so that they can focus more on their own work.
Although they are both young secretaries, there is a huge difference between this secretary and the boss's secretary's job function.
In one sentence, it is
Jia Jiajia is the nanny in this floor, the engine department.
My colleagues don’t have to pick up the papers to ask her for collection. If you encounter any difficulties in life, you can also ask them for help. This life difficulty is the situation that Sister Ying told her just now.
The lights in the conference room are broken and need to find someone to repair them.
Or if the snacks in the tea room are gone, they need to go out to purchase and replenish them in time.
The coffee bag is gone, the trash can is broken, and the chair is a little problem. Can you apply for more snack benefits next month?
I'm tired of eating this snack. Can I change my taste?
I don’t want to eat potato chips, and I’m prone to gain weight. Do I have any sugar-free dark chocolate?
That, does the company have any gifts such as toys, figures, or something? Can I apply for one to receive for my child?
If a colleague from the company does not want to eat in the cafeteria and needs to order food in the evening, after they order in the company's ordering system, the secretary will be responsible for collecting the corresponding lunch box and then notifying everyone at the time to receive the meal.
Such things.
Jia Jiajia found a book to record what Sister Ying just explained.
"Jia Jia. Today, there are 7 birthday stars in the engine department about to celebrate their birthdays. You will remember to order two big cakes later and then pull people into the group to inform them.
Oh, by the way, there are also birthday cards from the company to them.”
"Okay Sister Ying."
Jia Jiajia agreed.
Bomi Company's benefits are very good. When all employees join the company, they will enter relevant personal information into the company's talent database, which naturally includes the employees' birthday information.
On the day of employees' birthdays, the system will automatically remind the administrators and tell them that they should prepare gifts and birthday cakes for these birthday stars.
It feels very ritual and very family-like.
When she came to work on the first day, Jia Jiajia found it very interesting and excited because she had worked in administrative work in several other companies before, but none of them had such benefits. So when she first saw Bomi celebrate her employees' birthday, she was extremely moved and shocked.
Being able to provide services for them, and seeing the smiles on these people's faces, you will feel inexplicably satisfied.
However, after a long time, when Bomi has enough employees, you will find that there will be someone celebrating his birthday every day.
It wasn't very new afterwards.
"Wow! It's amazing!" At this moment, on the other side, the colleagues in the engine team burst into cheers.
Jia Jiajia couldn't help but turn her head and look over.
I saw a bunch of people gathered at a work station, staring at the computer screen, not knowing what they were looking at.
"Wow! That's great, can you finally do this?"
"Burning, it's burning!"
"A small step for mankind, a big step for history!"
"Wait...why...ah, no, no!"
"Why is this happening?"
"It seems that something went wrong with the code in some places."
"Wang Ming, please check if there is any problem with the material code on your side."
"good."
"I'll go and check out my interface, there should be no reason."
"Yes, hurry up and get it done. The boss will have a meeting with us later."
...
Jia Jiajia didn't understand what these people were high, and didn't understand what they were saying. She always felt that everything around her had nothing to do with her.
Some time ago, she saw a male programmer who could wear a hoodie with a leather windbreaker on the outside because she could wear a dress in the game. It looked very simple and normal. This person was as happy as winning the Nobel Prize.
Also, looking at a bunch of graphics that she couldn't understand at all, and didn't know what she was tinkering with. The last frame overlapped with the other frame, and was so excited that she shouted because of this kind of thing.
It made her think this person was going crazy or what.
But now she has become accustomed to it, because this kind of thing is really common.
It's very common in this place.
You will never understand the work and life of a technical mate.
Sometimes, you always feel that you are from two worlds with them, and you always seem so out of place.
When Jia Jiajia was in college, she didn’t feel this way at all. The men and women around her were normal, and boys often came to ask her out for dinner, shopping, and movies...
After coming to this place, Jia Jiajia felt so strong for the first time. It turned out that there were such a group of strange people in this world.
Among the strange piles, you will have an illusion that you are the strange one.
"Jia Jia, the iron box containing the toilet paper in the men's bathroom was broken. Just now, when an employee of the company wiped his hands, the lid of the iron box suddenly fell off and wiped his hand."
"ha?"
Jia Jiajia came back to her senses from her thoughts and looked at Sister Ying in confusion.
"This...what can I do?"
I can't go to the bathroom to solve the problem for him, I'm a girl.
If you say that his trash can is broken, the table is broken, the office chair is broken, or I can help you contact and solve it.
"You... hey, I've been working for almost a month, why are you still so stupid?" Sister Ying looked so angry, "First, look for a property or a cleaning aunt, telling them that the cardboard box in the men's bathroom was broken and asked to repair it or replace it.
Then go to the infirmary below to find emergency band-aids to send to the boys.
Oh, by the way, he is the one who comes to you often, Xiao Meng from the engine group."
"Meng Zhiyu?"
Jia Jiajia looked disgusted.
Speaking of which, Jia Jiajia can be regarded as the most beautiful among administrative assistants, even on this floor, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a layer of flowers.
Most of the engine departments are boys, and there are only a few female programmers.
After Jia Jiajia entered the company, many boys always came to chat with her if they had something to do. At a glance, you could tell what these men with glasses were thinking in their hearts.
Meng Zhiyu is just one of her many suitors.
He may still think he has not exposed his thoughts, but Jia Jiajia and the people around him know that he is just interested in others.
"Yes, Xiao Meng is so nice to you. She wants to help you bring breakfast in the morning. Any delicious snacks you have are given priority." Sister Ying smiled all over her face.
"Uh...Don't do this, Sister Ying, I have a boyfriend." Jia Jiajia said with her head down.
"What is your boyfriend? How much does it cost per month? How much does Xiao Meng cost per month?
What is your boyfriend’s education?
What is Xiao Meng’s education?
Of course, the employees working in this building do not include us. None of them are all top students. Even if they are not graduates from prestigious universities, they are all top players in the industry and will be millionaires in the future.
If I want to be as beautiful as you, I will definitely live a good life." Sister Ying said.
"Um……"
Jia Jiajia shook her head and didn't say anything.
"By the way, at 2:30 a.m., there will be an important meeting in the 402 conference room, and the boss will also come. Then you remember to make a cup of coffee for the boss, add a spoonful of sugar, and don't put milk."
"Okay Sister Ying."
After Sister Ying left, Jia Jiajia sat on the chair and stared blankly.
She covered her face and felt so depressed.
I don't know what the meaning of this kind of work is.
