Drove two beauties from a partner company to the subway station and chatted about overtime.
Whether it is a large factory or other growth company, when the business is expanding rapidly and the manpower is always unable to catch up, overtime is added to the convenience, it is really not to work overtime for the sake of showing yourself, it is really impossible to finish.
More than 10 years ago, a classmate was doing an overseas M&A project at King & Wood Mallesons, and two colleagues who rented a house together came back later than the other. It was one o'clock in the night when he came back, and the two buddies hadn't arrived home yet.
In 2003, the imported equipment from Japan was accepted, and the 24-hour continuous processing test was carried out. Not only did he not close his eyes, but he also played for 1 hour after the test before going to sleep.
Most companies must have overtime time, but the way of continuous overtime work and the use of people as batteries in large factories makes employees depressed and out of breath when they look at it.
So some people can't hold on, and even collapse, and choose to lie down.
In response to that local saying, if life is the best for you, you should change to your comfortable position. Now the most comfortable position is to lie flat.
I'm lying flat, how do I want to drop?
In addition to work, there are many components of life, and the high income brought by working hours will inevitably encroach on other spaces.
As long as you don't get entangled and your body can bear it, just like an assembly line robot, as long as there is electricity, you will keep moving, and no one will lie down.
No one has an enmity with money, money is not omnipotent, but it is difficult to move an inch if there is no one.
But I can't resist it a little psychologically, so I can only settle for the next best thing, and change to another company that is not busy to earn low wages, and if it doesn't work, I can lie flat.
It costs money to lie flat, even if it is 200 per month, 2400 a year, 20,000 in ten years4, if you live a long life, you will get 120,000 if you live for another fifty years.
This is the minimum requirement seen so far, and if it is changed to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, it may need to add at least one zero, and it may be several times more.
It seems that lying flat also has the capital to lie flat.
Let's go back to overtime.
All companies and employees who work overtime every day actually indicate that there is a problem with human resource allocation. In the long run, there can be problems with strategy.
In the factory before, the workshop was running in four shifts and three times, and people stopped non-stop. That is, 24 hours a day, every 8 hours a shift, there is a shift of workers working. In addition to these three shifts, there is also a shift off.
Even in this way, although it is only 8 hours and there is no overtime, the way of reversing day and night is unbearable.
Later, I also saw three shifts and two runs, and one shift for 12 hours. There is also a 16-hour shift.
The longer the time, the higher the salary and the greater the intensity.
No matter how big the factory is, it has not run out of this logic, but the division of labor is different and the operation mode is different.
There really is so much work, and large factories can increase manpower, day and night. People who are willing to stay up late can meet the requirements of the post, and the Chinese population can definitely meet them.
Why not?
The perception of Internet companies, to be honest, is sometimes anti-human.
At first, Didi didn't limit the amount of time drivers could drive, thinking it would be fine to drive 24 hours a day.
Meituan doesn't think riders need to take a break in between, and feels that they are willing to pick up and deliver goods all the time.
ByteDance doesn't think it's problematic to push news to users by analyzing their logic, that's what they want.
The logic of anti-humanity will naturally be the same in the use of people.
On the contrary, the factory will also consider rotating shifts, and three shifts and three operations can also be used, and two shifts are fine. A group is absolutely anti-human, but they have discovered people's greed.
The boss is greedy for cheap, and the fewer people who use it, the less the relative expenditure;
Employees are greedy for income, and the more work they do, the more money they make.
Forgetting the basic logic is the most terrifying.
It's like talking about religion with people who don't have a faith.
Some people have been lying flat and free, and some people are walking on the road of lying flat.
However, there are more people who find out after lying flat: I really don't want to lie down boringly, I want to stand up, and I want a blazing life, **I.
