How did you all get through the worst and poorest times?

Everyone will have the poorest and hardest time. I am a lucky person. Because I was assigned a job after graduation at 200 1. Such an experience has become a small probability today. But after I worked, I didn't get paid for a year or so, and the food expenses were borrowed from the school temporarily. In this case, the salary card and reissued salary will not be handed over until June of the following year. So, how to get through such a difficult time?

First, learn to live. When I first started working, because I didn't get paid for more than a year, I often felt that I was short of money, not only financially but also mentally. It took me nearly a month to write an IOU from 200 yuan.

At that time, 200 yuan was already a good number. A bowl of noodles in 2.5 yuan on the market, if you eat three bowls of noodles every day, it is 7.5 yuan, which costs 225 yuan for 30 days a month. This is not good for us. So, we thought of a better way to eat on the school stove at noon. At that time, the school stove was subsidized, and a barrel of oil was subsidized every month. Everyone is very happy, because eating on the stove costs about 1.2 yuan on average. In this way, you can eat on the stove for nearly 20 days every month and save a lot of money.

However, life is too hard for the growing 18 young people. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Because I am short of money, I can save a lot of money to buy the books I need in order to eat well. We thought of the best way, that is to bring flour from home and cook by ourselves. Cooking by yourself involves mixing flour and buying vegetables, but the cost will be minimized. Sometimes even 100 can't be spent in a month. Now think about it, at that time, how resilient we were! If there are no vegetables, go to the market to buy some, and then go to the school garden to pick fresh wild vegetables and dry them for later use. I have no money to buy meat. Go fishing in Weihe River on weekends, catch shrimps, touch mussels and catch snails ... In short, although life is poor, it is very fulfilling. This history has taught me to live happily without money.

Second, learn to be happy. In those difficult days, because life is very tight. So after work, we seldom go to supermarkets, shopping malls and other places except the necessities of life. Even on weekends, I don't want to go to places where I spend money, such as snack bars. However, we like to go to another place, which is the bookstore to read novels. At that time, we were short of material life, but rich in spirit. Occasionally, people rent movies to relax. Our favorite movie is the Stephen Chow series, especially the story that the lower working people finally succeeded through hard work. Everyone laughs every time they watch it! We felt that the days at that time were really happy! Now, the feeling of happiness still lingers in my mind!
