She, 47 years old this year, was disgusted by the team leader for being slow when she worked in the factory because of her age. In an era of the law of the jungle, personal value determines the right to speak.
I have a colleague who is a 47-year-old aunt who has been working in the factory for many years. But for the past two years, she has been disliked by her colleagues and team leader. Individual colleagues in the factory are not very friendly, especially the attitude and tone of the team leader towards her, the team leader always complains in front of others that she is old and slow to do things and not flexible enough.
For the group leader, being old and doing things slowly has become a reason for her to dislike her. Even though she has worked in this factory for many years and has some experience, her work ability and speed are not good, and her speed of work is indeed slower than others.
The unfriendliness of the team leader's attitude made her feel bored with her work and a sense of distance from the team leader. When I first met her, I thought she was a very serious colleague, but then I worked here for a long time and got to know her slowly, and I realized that this was not the case. I also found that she likes to be lazy, and sometimes she is really more snail than a snail, and I can't stand it. When others have finished their work, she is still grinding and chirping, as if she has to wait for others to help her to finish it.
The reason why she likes to be lazy is actually because the team leader looks down on her and her colleagues ridicule her. She felt that no matter how hard she tried, she would not get the recognition she deserved, so she gradually chose to relax herself. She began to be a little casual about her working hours, sometimes not following the arrangement of the team leader, and doing it first when she saw that it was easy to do.
She has been working in this factory for 8 years, and she knows everyone's personality traits well. No matter how disliked she is, she will not give up this job and insist on retiring in this factory. She knows her abilities and experience, and understands that if she quits at this age, it will be difficult to find a job when she goes out.
Although she is not good at doing things, she can still be a person. When I first arrived, I went to the cafeteria with her to eat in and out of work. In life, when others are in difficulty, she will take the initiative to help others. Sometimes she also taught me not to be so diligent, to rest when it is time to rest, anyway, I have to finish work every day, and the salary will not be much. But I can't do it, I see a lot of things that have not been done, and I am anxious and want to finish it quickly, because everyone's position is different, and sooner or later my own things are piled up there and will be done by myself.
Now, she is getting closer and closer to retirement. Although she has experienced a lot of unhappiness, she is very reluctant to leave here. It has become her second home, and she has been here for so many years and has made so many friends. She didn't want to let go of this experience and memories easily, and she didn't want to leave like that. She firmly believes that she can continue to do it, and even if she retires, she does not want to be limited by her age.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest. Sometimes it feels like the factory is like a palace, and the people in the factory are like the concubines in the harem, full of struggle and intrigues. Between different departments and different positions, it seems to be friendly on the surface, but in fact, there is hidden competition behind the scenes. Competing among employees for benefits and promotions is a common sight in factories.
