Why don't young people want to learn how to make snacks?

Zhejiang Online, August 31, 28-Tongxin Building and Rongluchun, centuries-old stores affiliated to  Catering Service Company, have a good reputation in Shaoxing. Because of their low price and good quality, people who go to Tongxin Building and Rongluchun to buy fried buns and small cages have to queue up every day. At present, they all encounter a serious problem: they can't recruit young workers, and both old brands are facing the dilemma of lack of successors.

"At present, several time-honored stores under the Beverage Company are in a state of talent shortage, such as Tongxin Building Branch in the south of the city, which originally had six posts, but now there are only three on-the-job employees. Tongxin Lou's old shop also lacks five dim sum chefs. " The relevant person in charge of the city catering service company told the reporter, "We have always posted job advertisements at the door of the store, but there are not many people who come to apply, and most of them are people in their 4 s and 5 s."

"Whether making raw-fried steamed buns or steamed buns, there are certain technical requirements. Personnel should be trained after they are recruited. Older people, who have just been trained, will retire in a few years, which is quite a loss for the company. So the company really wants to recruit some young people. " There are more than 3 employees in the company, with an average age of over 45. "We want to add some fresh blood and not give people the feeling that the old brand is' old'."

The reporter learned that the catering company offers good treatment to the pastry chef. The company provides food and shelter, with an average monthly salary of about 3, yuan and various benefits every holiday. Such conditions still fail to attract young people.

The time-honored brand offered a monthly salary of 3, yuan, but failed to recruit the right person. Tongxin department store clothing store, which is about to open next to Guoshang Building, has a monthly salary of less than 2, yuan. Less than a week after the advertisement was posted, more than 3 young people signed up, far exceeding the 2 places required by the clothing store.

why are it difficult to attract young people to join the two time-honored brands that are very popular in Shaoxing? The person in charge of the city drinking service company believes that it is mainly because the dim sum production is relatively hard. "To ensure that the raw fried buns, big buns and small cages are delicious, not only the raw materials are fresh, but also they should be made on the same day. Therefore, the pastry chef must go to work before 4 o'clock every morning, and the labor intensity is relatively high, which makes it difficult to attract young people."

Tongxin Building and Rong Lu Spring are in a critical period of development and expansion. Because it is difficult to recruit new workers, the production capacity is greatly restricted.

if no young people are willing to take over, the inheritance of time-honored brands will become a problem. The company hopes that more young people who are willing to endure hardships will join in. "Even if the applicant doesn't have any experience in dim sum making, as long as he likes this job, we are willing to focus on training. Because only young people can inherit and carry forward these two old brands with rich historical and cultural connotations. " The leader of the city drinking service company said.
