The moon sets, the sun rises, the stars change day
This morning seemed to be as normal as usual. During the lunch break, Jack took a bottle of red wine and walked on the way to find the workshop supervisor.
And just when he saw the workshop supervisor from a distance, a continuous vibrating sound suddenly came from the bracelet.
It was a call from my wife Aisha.
Jack stopped for a moment and looked at the workshop supervisor who was chatting with several workers in the distance. At this moment, those workers were already saying goodbye to the workshop supervisor and were about to leave.
If you want to go up and talk to the workshop supervisor, this is the best time.
Jack touched the wine in his arms. This bottle of wine was a fine red wine that he bought for more than 600 federal dollars. The workshop supervisor loved wine very much. As long as he accepted this bottle of wine, things would probably work out.
The bracelet was still vibrating. Jack glanced at the workshop supervisor and finally raised his hand to answer the phone.
"Jack, please read the email sent by Mr. Wei An, chairman of the board of directors, to all employees!"
Elsa's excited tone came from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong?"
Jack was a little confused, but he still clicked on his mailbox and saw an email sent to all employees in the name of 'Vian, Chairman of the Board of Directors'.
The sending time was 9:30 in the morning, which was the busiest time at work in the morning, so Jack did not see the reminder on the bracelet.
The content of the email is very simple, all in plain English, with only two core summary points:
First: All school-age children from the families of employees who work for the Nolanka Group can receive up to 35% tuition fee reduction, 40% living expense reduction, and 25% custody fee reduction when they go to the group's kindergartens, primary schools, and middle schools.
To apply for these exemptions, you only need to fill in the corresponding forms on the group intranet and attach the corresponding supporting documents. After passing the review, employees can use this review document to go to the official website of the school they are about to enroll to apply for tuition exemption procedures.
Second: All employees working in the Nolanka Group can enjoy the rental discount for the group's apartments. The discount range is between 15% and 30%. The same is done by submitting the review form on the intranet. After passing the review, you can
Take the relevant review documents directly to the apartment manager to apply for rent reduction or exemption.
At the end of the email, two files of welfare-related review rules were attached.
Jack downloaded the file and took a look at it, and found that couples like him, who were both working, and new immigrants to Kaya City without any accumulation, could apply for very high discounts.
"Have you finished it? Have you finished it?"
My wife's excited voice came from the phone.
She has repeated this several times.
"After reading it," Jack said in a slow voice, much calmer than his wife, "These benefits look good, but they all need to be reviewed. How will they be reviewed at that time? It's not just the sentence above, it won't fall to us ordinary employees.
On the head."
"This time is different," my wife said in a low voice, her voice suddenly lowered a lot,
“I heard from my colleagues that this time it was our new chairman of the board of directors, Mr. Wei An, who personally promoted it.
He drove away the original chairman of the board of directors, whose name was Philip. That Philip embezzled a lot of public funds from the group, and has now been caught. The current chairman, Mr. Wei An, is a good man. He gave the part of the public funds that Philip embezzled to
Employees receive benefits.
He seems to have had a falling out with the board of directors over this matter. The board of directors wanted to directly distribute the money as dividends, but he refused to let it go because he was the major shareholder and enforced this welfare policy. It is said that no matter who is this time, as long as he is an employee,
If you apply, you will receive benefits.
My colleague said that she heard this from a sister of hers who is a supervisor. It was inside information and asked me not to tell anyone."
"Why does this story sound so bizarre?"
Jack was a little skeptical.
"I told you it was an insider tip," Aisha whispered on the other end of the phone, "It doesn't cost any money anyway, so we won't lose if we apply. It says that the results will be available by twenty-four at the latest, but we really can't do it by then.
Think of other ways."
Jack hesitated for a moment, shook the red wine in his arms, and nodded gently, "I'll send you the materials, and we can apply."
As my wife said, it doesn’t cost any money and it won’t hurt to give it a try.
······
At the end of the lunch break, Jack returned to the workshop.
He put the wine in his arms into the locker.
"Are you bringing alcohol to work?"
Jack's coworker was a middle-aged man with red curly hair, a big beard, and a big beer belly. He came over and asked with a smile, "How about a drink after get off work?"
"I bought the wrong one a few days ago, so I'm going to take it back today to return it."
Jack smiled and locked the wine in the cupboard. As a newcomer, he was not very familiar with his coworkers, and he felt distant when talking to her. "My wife was waiting for me to come home for dinner at night, so I didn't go."
"Good man, good man."
The bearded worker smiled and sighed, but he was not angry at being rejected.
At this time, several more workers came over, waving their bracelets and saying, "Did you read the email sent by the board of directors? What do those gentlemen mean? It's 35% and 25%. We can't understand it.
?Is this thing reliable? Have those guys come up with some way to make money and fool us?"
Everyone started talking for a while, and Jack was coerced into joining the discussion.
As he talked, he slowly said, "I have inside information that I heard from the supervisor of my wife's colleague. Don't tell others..."
——
He Ao leaned on the chair at his desk, the projection screen in front of him showing the ever-changing number of applicants.
Lina, with two huge dark circles under her eyes, sat next to He Ao, pouring cup after cup of coffee into her mouth.
"How's the effect?"
She stuck her head out and looked at the numbers on the monitor.
The review is not completely manual. Eve will first screen all the applications, roughly classify them into a level, and then pass these to the administrative department personnel who were summoned urgently in the morning for review.
The review opinions of these personnel will eventually be fed back to Eve's database for her to perform machine learning, allowing her to make more accurate judgments.
Among all reviewers, excluding those who are obviously unqualified, such as those who have no children to apply for school subsidies, all others will be allocated a preferential quota as long as they apply.
It's just that for high-income groups such as group executives, the discount they receive will be very small, no more than 5%, and there is a deduction limit. It is basically just a formality.
The lower the workers are, the ones with lower incomes and poor economic conditions, the higher the preferential treatment they will receive.
The reason for making such a balanced decision is to establish the credibility of the group's top management.
