Chapter 44 take responsibility before leaving

Two years ago, the boss of a magazine in Shenzhen who had a column for me for two years called me and suggested that I "change the working environment" and the salary was three times that of my original unit.Of course I can't refuse such a good thing, but I asked him to wait for me for three months. The reason why I asked him to wait for three months is because my contract with the original unit has not yet expired.Maybe I shouldn't let people wait that long, because it was only one month before the contract expired, and I set the time to leave after three months because I thought the unit should be given enough time to find someone to replace me.

A month later, the unit really hasn't recruited a suitable successor.It's not that the unit has high requirements, they only want to recruit someone who is similar to me: honest, hardworking, hardworking.These 12 words are also the leaders' evaluation of me. They even asked me to recommend such a person.But I can't find it——I know a lot of people, and there are a lot of people who are more talented than me, but I really don't know someone as honest and hardworking as me, and I can't recommend them a fake one. goods. Although I haven't found a replacement yet, that doesn't mean I can't go.In fact, although the reasonable leaders are reluctant to let me go and give me a high evaluation of my work, they have realized that delaying my "future" is an immoral thing, since they can't give me "benefits" , then they have no right to prevent others from giving me "benefits", so they don't stop me, and even mobilize me to leave early, worrying that if the delay continues, Shenzhen will change their minds.

Frankly speaking, I also want to leave earlier and go to Shenzhen to earn a high salary. I even wish I could fly there right away.But I'm a man of my word, and I can't take my promise as a joke, or it's worthless, and the promise is worthless, and the person who made it is worthless—I don't know Logical or not, but that's what I thought. Another month passed, and the unit finally picked a good guy after countless waves of washing the sand.But I was still in no hurry to leave, because the lad was a novice and I felt it was my responsibility to pass on my "work experience" to him.I didn't go to Shenzhen until the young man was able to stand on his own.

On the first day of my departure, all the staff of the unit hosted a banquet to see me off.It was a touching scene, my eyes turned red countless times, because in the process of clinking glasses frequently, I heard such instructions: "Xiao Tang, if you can't stay in Shenzhen anymore, you can Come back, the door here is always open to you." Those who said these words were not only leaders, but also colleagues.Although I didn't take it seriously, the disappointing tears finally flowed out, which almost made me give up my decision to go to Shenzhen. I stayed in Shenzhen for less than four months, and their "prophecy" really became a reality: due to some reasons that I still don't know, the boss who invited me to join was pushed out, and the new boss has always been the enemy of the old boss. Well, I was invited by the old boss, and naturally I am also his deadly enemy. Since I am a deadly enemy, then naturally I have to get out.

It happened so suddenly that I was not prepared for it at all, and it caught me off guard.After enduring it until late at night, I finally couldn't bear it and called the boss of the original unit.I don't want them to "take me in" again, but I think I should tell them about my situation, because this is also my original promise. I have already thought about it: After making this call, I will pack my luggage and go home.However, unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, the boss said on the other end of the phone: "If you don't think the salary is low, come back and do it."

"But, you have no shortage of people. Can the other leaders agree with me to go back?" "Tomorrow we will have a meeting to study it, you wait for my news." The news I got the next day was: "You are unanimously welcome back." For a long time after that, I didn’t understand why they unanimously welcomed me back, because having me as a “superfluous person” meant that they would pay for one more person, and the unit had been “weaned” long ago. What it means is self-evident.It was only later that I realized that it was my original attitude of "letting go after taking responsibility" that made me the "life-saving straw" for "surviving a dead end".
