I felt depressed
|
Every week, i made calls home and kept contact with my parent. Today, i made a call to my father and mother as usual. After talked with my mother, i was depressed and felt a little sad.
Not until my mother asked me about my salary and sighed, did i realize that how low an income i got. I graduated last year, it seemed i still was a green hand since i changed my job, so no big increase in my salary. Mum said to me that i needed to talk with my boss about raising my salary, besides, my elementary school classmates who didn't go to college could gain a twice salary as much as i earn. My heart was painful now.
Fortunately, i'm a open-minded person, i do not care about it much, cause i think i'm continuing studying now, i can do better later and it needs time, i can't be anxious about it.
Frankly speaking, most of the boss do not care about your education background, they only care about what value and what profit you can bring to him or her. They care about the results most. All the boss hope you can make the biggest benefits for them. As for me, a new comer working not less than one month, to talk with my boss about my salary, it is really a dangerous and awful thing, too risky and not feasible. Nowadays college student are no longer like before. The society competition has become so fierce and cruel, even some undergraduates cannot find a job, not to speak of how hard for us college students to find jobs. And the most important thing is, you should have true skill and genuine knowledge to do your work.
If you are not qualified, you need to study further, like me, continue to study, to improve myself.
All in all, i can support myself, since i graduated, i asked no money from my parent, though i haven't give them money as well. I do hope this year, i can earn a little and buy more presents for them this time.
My dear mum, please do not push me hard and bring me more pressure, i'm trying, i will do better in the future, trust me.

- Loly dear. You would live a miserable life if you listen to all those nonsense. Who would believe that a person who did not go to college can earn twice as much as you? There must be some hanky panky going on there. You need to tell your mother that she really does not know much about the job market. Your job may not be desireable but if you resign, plenty of people would be happy to take your job. Your mother does not know that there are hundreds of thousands graduates each year looking for jobs but the jobs vacancies have not increased. There are so many people seeking good jobs. Is it really so easy to get a well paid job? Do you have the right powerful connections? Are you exceptionally beautiful that they can keep you as a flower vase with high pay? Are you so fortunate that you can come across a boss who particularly likes you? Just don't listen to all those agitating rumors and nonsense. Now is not the time to fight for high pay, otherwise you would likely be rebuked. Just gain valuable work experience. Your chance would come when you are a truly capable employee and your boss would be scared to lose you. Hope you have a good time ahead.

- my boss is also a meany one,but he care more about one's education background,who have a higher education,then he can get a higher paid,because my boss like to save his face at all cost,he often said to his business partner:most of my employees are having high education diploma....those who do so many work but with low diploma will get lower income,so many people hate him.

- Morning sunnyv, your words are always reasonable. It's not the right time to compare the salary, but the best time for us to acquire knowledge and working experience. Whenever knowledge is power, only we master it can we take it as weapons and help to conquer the difficults. Just come on!
