An experience of taking the wrong bus

People will always encounter some strange things in their lives. If I say that someone will take the wrong bus, it will be considered a fable and a big joke. Don't believe it, haha, I will meet it. Yes, I took the wrong train one year. Some experiences in life are uninvited and unpredictable in the wrong way. Among them, some personal job hunting experiences are more complicated and confusing, which makes people sigh. I can't help but sigh that fate is impermanent.

Back in 2003, I was engaged in sales in a pharmaceutical group in Kunming, Yunnan. After work, you should leave your hometown, parents, wife and children to travel abroad. I remember that just after New Year's Eve, it was the peak of Spring Festival travel rush. The railway station is crowded with people dragging big bags and small bags everywhere. At three o'clock in the afternoon, only the station announcer announced: "Ladies and gentlemen, the k875 train from Nanchang to Kunming is about to enter the station. Please start check-in. " I carried my backpack and pulled my suitcase, and I successfully checked in and got on the bus surrounded by the crowd. I thought it was very difficult to travel for two days and one night because I didn't buy a sleeper. I wanted to cheer up and fell asleep on the small table next to me as soon as I got on the bus and put my luggage away.

At six or seven o'clock in the evening, I woke up from the dull clang of the train and asked the passengers around me softly, "Comrade, where are we now?" "Just arrived in Shaowu", "What? Shao Wu? " I suddenly panicked. "Isn't this the train to Kunming?" "No, this is for Xiamen." The other person's voice is calm and firm. I secretly complain in my heart. At that time, the station broadcast clearly told Kunming passengers to check in and get on the bus. I also chatted with the people waiting in line next to me. I also went to Kunming. How did I get on the train to Xiamen? I'm a little annoyed. I just blame too many people and people at first, and I didn't have time to look at the signs on the car body carefully. Probably, there was a train to Xiamen at that time, and it stopped at the ticket gate. The conductor came to inquire about the situation and gave two suggestions: get off at the first stop, because there is no direct train to Kunming, you must go back the same way. Two direct tickets to Xiamen.

Originally, I was going to Kunming in the southwest, but sitting on the train from the southeast to Xiamen, I really left south. Considering that I don't know if I can buy a new ticket when I go back by car, I may lose my job when I get to Kunming. I decided to go directly to Xiamen, and I will be safe when I come. Isn't it a job? Where food doesn't support people, go to Xiamen and look for it again. I comforted myself.

I decided to go to Xiamen for another reason. My wife's two uncles and cousins have worked in Xiamen for many years. In case I have no money, I have a place to take refuge. As soon as I got out of the railway station, my brother-in-law Watson took me to his rented place. At that time, he also resigned and was ready to jump ship. In addition to eating and sleeping together every day, he took pains to accompany me to Xiamen talent market to find a job. This stay lasted for several days, during which my uncle, my wife and my sister Meizhen also asked me to have dinner together. When people come to my hometown for the first time, relatives will invite me to dinner and get together, which is not only their courtesy, but also their concern for family ties. Actually, it's not easy for them. I declined for the time being on the grounds that I would wait until I settled down.

I went to the talent market every day, but I didn't find a suitable job for several days in a row. Kunming Company also called to ask when it would arrive. I had to prevaricate that there were still things to do at home for a few days, and my heart was inevitably a little anxious. Finally, one day I saw a position that I felt quite satisfied with. Xiamen Yinlu Group recruited a business manager. With my own work experience and experience, I am determined to win this job and full of confidence. I am in a good mood after submitting my resume. At this time, my wife and sister Mei Zhen asked me to have dinner several times, but they were all shirked and went directly to the talent market to find me. The talent market is crowded with people. Meizhen found a recruiting unit and finally found it. It makes no sense to refuse again, so I went to her house for dinner with my brother-in-law, Watson, and didn't talk much about finding a job during the period, leaving some regrets for later. But today, it is still very warm to think of my wife and sister's move to find us in the talent market, and it is also very touching that she values her family so much.

After coming back from dinner, I excitedly told my brother-in-law that this job is very suitable for me today, and I am sure to get this position. If the situation is good, I will get an answer within three days. My brother-in-law is also very happy. However, three days later, my cell phone didn't ring. My work experience and experience are fully qualified for this position. It can be said that I lowered my salary requirements appropriately, why didn't I impress the recruiters? I am puzzled and puzzled. Brother-in-law said it's not urgent, wait a few days and see, if not, I'll look again. I said, "No, I'll leave for Kunming after two days of no news."

Two days have passed and there is still no news. Although my brother-in-law kept me, I packed my luggage and set foot on the train to Kunming. After two days and a night of turbulence, I walked out of Kunming Railway Station in a daze. At this moment, the familiar mobile phone bell rang and I picked it up. "Hello, Mr. Wei, we are from the personnel department of Xiamen Yinlu Group. This phone call is specifically to inform you to come for an interview ... "The beauty on the phone has a sweet voice, but I almost fainted. The phone is still feeding, so I hung up silently. What makes people vomit blood even more is that it took me many years to know that my wife and sister Meizhen's boyfriend, now her brother-in-law, Xiao Yang, is in charge of recruitment in the personnel department of Yinlu Group. He doesn't know that I submitted my resume to their company. In this way, I took the wrong train from Xiamen and went back to work in Kunming.

A few years later, I left Kunming and moved to Jiangxi, Shanghai and Jiangsu, constantly looking for a place to live for my uninhibited personality and a poetic place to live in my dreams. However, I have never missed the train again.

In the past ten years, we have witnessed the rapid development of the national railway network. High-speed rail and bullet trains have covered more than half of China, providing great convenience for people to travel. I hope that no one will take the wrong bus again, and I hope that with the development of economy, every soul who has been lonely and wandering can be treated gently by life and no longer suffer from the long journey away from home. May you walk for half your life and the teenager return!
