However, misfortunes never come singly. Half a month ago, Yan Yan's wallet was stolen, which had more than 400 yuan, that was her living expense for over half a month. Due to long-term malnutrition, Yan Yan has become weak and fragile. She said she feared cold most now, "If it gets colder, I won't have thick clothes to wear." What she hopes most now is that someone can offer her a job to make a living. If you can help Yan Yan, please contact us. The helping hotline is 81739988. After sending out hundreds of resumes, it seemed like throwing mud at the wall - no response. When she received a reply from a company in Weihai, she went there immediately with a classmate, full of joy. Before leaving, Yan Yan told her mother, "I will definitely make something out of myself, earn money to support our family." She was responsible for answering phone calls and booking rooms for guests at the front desk. Because of language barrier, despite Yan Yan's efforts, she often made mistakes and got docked a lot of pay. Eventually, the leader advised Yan Yan to resign, thinking that this job wasn't suitable for her. Thus, Yan Yan bid farewell to her first job, which lasted 40 days and earned her 800 yuan, but also caused her a serious illness. During the probation period, it happened to be the peak season for tourism. Yan Yan had to help carry tables and move beds. "From the 1st floor to the 14th floor, my arms were too tired to lift." Yan Yan said after moving things, she began to tidy up the rooms. Seeing Yan Yan's hard work, the leader assigned her to work at the front desk. She had to stand for 15 hours a day. When there were many guests, she couldn't rest for a whole day and night. Although it was like this, Yan Yan felt much easier. Originally, the company where Yan Yan interviewed was quite well-known, located in a room of a hotel. As soon as she entered, Yan Yan found something was off. There were a few tables scattered around the room, clutter everywhere, two men and one woman with strange eyes carefully looking her and her classmate over. "A man came up and wanted to search our bags, I dodged quickly," Yan Yan said. At that moment, she realized she had been deceived. Yan Yan and her classmate ran out of the hotel hand in hand. "It's all thanks to that female classmate who accompanied me; otherwise, that interview company might have done something rash." Recalling the first interview, Yan Yan was still frightened. In front of a hotel, Yan Yan stopped. "Recruiting front desk staff, waiters and waitresses, providing food and accommodation, monthly salary 1500 yuan plus commission." Without hesitation, Yan Yan walked in. "University students can also be good waiters and waitresses, isn't cleaning rooms just a piece of cake? I want to give it a try." Yan Yan is a stubborn girl who can adapt flexibly. On September 1st, she officially became a "little teacher", each student bringing her a 40-yuan commission. The salary was satisfactory, but the so-called "providing food and accommodation" turned out to be far from what was promised. Yan Yan told the reporter that "providing accommodation" meant that after the children returned home from their tutoring, the study desks would be put together for the "teachers" to sleep on. "Providing food" actually meant eating only one meal a day, all leftovers from the students. The boss's expression often made it hard for Yan Yan to swallow. To eat enough, she had to eat outside, but could only afford noodles and boxed meals, nothing else. ■ Income From June 21st to present, Yan Yan has been wandering outside for a total of 156 days. She has interviewed with seven companies and worked at two, earning a total of 2800 yuan. After deducting travel and living expenses, there was almost nothing left. Continuing interviews "Thanks to the female classmate who stayed by my side, that interview company didn't dare to act rashly." Talking about her first interview experience, Yan Yan was still terrified. Relying on eyesight for work, decided to give up Yan Yan's classmate was arranged by her family to work at an enterprise in Qingdao. Without her classmate's company, Yan Yan considered leaving Weihai. "Both food and accommodation require money, if I can't find a job soon, I won't even have money for the trip home." Yan Yan said. Thinking of her parents who lived far away in Yushu, Changchun, making a living through farming, and her young and ambitious brother who had just lost his job, Yan Yan sighed deeply. "Shouldn't the university students that my parents worked so hard to raise deserve better?" Yan Yan said, she would not give up. Tutor facing strange expressions, escaped from the hotel "Providing food and accommodation, tutoring students, 40-yuan commission per student." Introduced by her boyfriend's classmate, Yan Yan left Weihai and came to Dalian to work. After being severely hit, she wanted to start anew in Dalian. "Working hard and diligently is definitely right." Yan Yan was introduced to work as a tutor at an after-school tutoring center. However, she arrived at an inconvenient time when the family was renovating. To get along well with the "boss", Yan Yan helped them with various tasks. Holding the hard-earned 800 yuan, Yan Yan was reluctant to spend a single penny. She continued to look for jobs. Apparently, as a graduate of "Sociology", she couldn't compete with graduates from "Chinese Literature" or "Secretarial Studies". At the Weihai Talent Market, she saw a joint venture factory recruiting workers. She helplessly smiled and decided to give it a try because she was running out of money. She didn't expect to become part of the "vulnerable group" Yan Yan recalled, from the reprimands of the team leader at the Weihai hotel to the disdainful looks from the current boss, the repeatedly frustrated her almost forgot her original ideals. Talking about these, she burst into tears, filled with bitterness. In July in Weihai, under the blazing sun, Yan Yan aimlessly wandered on the street. Teaching in the evening, Yan Yan had free time during the day, so she continued to look for jobs. To save one yuan for transportation, she tried to walk to the talent market. To avoid spending money and staying warm, she hid in the library to read books. "The boss generally feels we take up space at home during the day." After a long journey, Yan Yan looked exhausted. Yan Yan then interviewed with several other companies, "At the agency, without five insurances and one fund, selling ten houses is required to get a commission." Being new to Dalian, Yan Yan was unfamiliar with the place and couldn't handle the job. She then went to another company, narrowly escaping being lured into a pyramid scheme. After several interviews, she was completely exhausted. "The assembly line mainly relies on eyesight for work." Yan Yan said, that was a processing plant, very exhausting for the eyes. "After working there for two years, your eyes will be nearly blind." Hearing the gatekeeper's words, Yan Yan, who already had 500-degree myopia, decided to give up. Receptionist Yan Yan clearly remembered that it was raining heavily in Weihai on the day of the interview. She braved the rain to that factory, the buzzing sound of the assembly line machines resounding. She took a deep breath and entered the office. "There were cameras everywhere, people passing by wearing uniforms, only revealing their eyes." Yan Yan felt scared. She noticed that no one there ever smiled, and she felt like a monster among them. The interviewer told Yan Yan that she would need to work 14 hours a day on the assembly line. Starting salary was 1500 yuan per month, with regular overtime on rest days. Like all graduates, Yan Yan has dreams. Despite her poor family background, she still hoped to improve her parents' and younger brother's lives through her own efforts. To earn more money, Yan Yan took on 15 students, which amounted to 900 yuan per month. Every day, she tutored students from after school (16:30) until 21:00. She went to bed without even having dinner.
