Have you ever been warmed by the words and deeds of strangers?

20 12 just graduated from university. For a fresh graduate, it is difficult to find a job, and it is the first time to come to Shenzhen by train, and I am a stranger.

I am carrying a suitcase with some clothes, a schoolbag and a computer bag. I only have 2000 yuan in cash. Why Shenzhen? Because a classmate in my class has an internship in Shenzhen, everyone will go to Shenzhen first after graduation. Then I took the K90 17 train from Changsha to Shenzhen, and several students came together. Along the way, everyone is full of longing and confusion about the future. After arriving in Luohu, Shenzhen, we contacted our classmates, and then went to Yangmei Community in Bantian, Shenzhen, a village in the city where he lived.

After we arrived, the students rented a house and had a dinner. Then that night, we hurried around the village and started looking for a house. In order to save money, I shared a single room on the sixth floor with a classmate. The rent was 300 yuan and the deposit was 300 yuan. I didn't have much experience at that time, so I paid the money when I saw that the price was still cheap. After we moved in, we found the room too dirty. I haven't cleaned it carefully for at least a few years, especially the toilet is covered with a thick yellow stain, and there is no toilet door. We paid for washing powder and brushes. It's very hot in summer in Shenzhen now, so we clean the room naked.

I was so tired that night that I just spread the bamboo mat on the ground and slept. Because there is no electric fan, we can only use books to fan the wind, and there are many mosquitoes. The next day, we bought the cheapest fan and mosquito-repellent incense, and then took the time to submit our resumes.

We all got together and rented a house for dinner.

At that time, there was Yangmei subway station near Yangmei, with convenient transportation. We rented a house, and there are really many people in this community! For the first time, I feel that Shenzhen is really a world where young people work. In the morning, all the people who get in and out of the subway bus are migrant workers carrying bags. We are new here and don't know what to do. Counterpart work is also a resume, because there is no work experience, and it is all sinking into the sea. Maybe they are all young people, encouraging each other and fighting each other, so they are not so eager and have a slightly better psychological mood. At the weekend, everyone climbed Wutongshan for the first time.

We took the subway and bus, and we were curious about the city for almost two weeks. All kinds of high-rise buildings make us deeply moved, as curious as the children in the mountain village of 18 line came to a modern big city for the first time. Flowers bloom in Shenzhen all year round.

The first time I went to the seaside, it was a weekend. I took the bus for more than 2 hours, and took the bus from Shenzhen North to Dapeng, then changed to the bus halfway and walked. I set off from 9 am to 3 pm and arrived at Dacillon Beach. The first time I saw the sea, I was shocked beyond words! In front of us is the vast sea, with no margin in sight and rough waves. At night, it's all darkness and camping tents.

We didn't have any tents, only a cushion, so we managed to sleep all night. Although I have no money, I am really happy. I have a very cheap camera that can record the situation at that time.

Then we still have to find a job. We are always happy for our classmates whenever they say that there will be an interview in the afternoon. Especially during the interview, everyone should get together for dinner in the evening. Encourage each other. Come on!

Looking for a job for the longest time, I stayed in the rental house for a long time, and 2000 yuan was almost used up, so I began to save money. You can only eat steamed bread every meal, and the happiest thing is to go to Shaxian to eat mixed noodles. Because I didn't buy tableware in the rental house at first, it's not good to go to my classmates' rental house for dinner. So you still have to rely on yourself. Loss and confusion have been hanging over my head like dark clouds.

I have also interviewed several companies, all of which are quite far away, and some of them have been brushed off. Then there will always be a turning point. I believe I just lack an opportunity!

One day I received an interview near Gangxia, Futian District, and the distance was relatively close, so I prepared my resume and set off early. Futian district is really beautiful, with many tall buildings, clean streets and dense banyan trees. Even in hot August, people will feel cool.

I thought it was ok after the interview, but the salary was not high at first. 20 12 the salary of my first job was only 3500 yuan. But I am very happy psychologically and feel that my opportunity has come. I didn't go back to my dormitory immediately in the afternoon, but went to Lianhua Mountain in Shenzhen. I want to go to Lianhua Mountain to have a look and relieve my resentful mood for many days.

I met a big brother while climbing the mountain. It seems that he is about 40 years old. At first, I didn't greet him. He asked me for directions, and I told him that Lotus Hill was very big and he could walk to Lotus Lake near Peking University Hospital. Then I chatted with my eldest brother, who said that he had asked for leave and had just come to climb the mountain, so he seldom came. Although I have worked in Shenzhen for a long time, I rarely climb mountains, and I usually drive on weekdays.

Then I asked my eldest brother that his family must be very happy in Shenzhen after working for so long. Eldest brother knows that I came to Shenzhen just after graduation, so I always remember this sentence he told me, even now it is a bit incomplete. The eldest brother said, "When you just graduated, it must be the most difficult moment in your life. You will be confused and don't know what job you are suitable for. Finding a job in this major in time, the salary is not high, and even the company in this major can't even read the resume, so it is brushed. When I first came to Shenzhen, there were few buses and subways, so I slept in the road park. But you have to believe that any difficulty is only temporary, not lifelong, unless you don't work hard. Most of your difficulties now come from stepping into the society and the workplace from school. So you have to live first, find a job, and live to develop slowly. " Eldest brother continued to add, "nothing is difficult since ancient times. But there is a simple truth, as long as you persist and work hard, you will definitely change. Don't worry, young man, there must be opportunities and laws in everything. "

I silently remembered this sentence, and my eldest brother took a break and said goodbye to me.

Since then, I have started my own working career. I suffered a lot on the road and made many mistakes, but I always remember what my eldest brother said. As long as I live and persist, my efforts will change.

20 12 Ten years have passed by 2023, and I have been in Shenzhen for ten years. Shenzhen is a city full of changes and challenges, and I'm still sticking to it. Big Brother's talk about living and persisting is an open-minded and indomitable spirit, which is the most precious spirit of all our migrant workers. I hope everyone who has just left the society will learn this spirit and create a better tomorrow through their own efforts!
