In this busy Spring Festival season, I stumbled upon an eye-catching story about a woman who chose to become a bricklayer after graduating from her bachelor's degree, earning 20,000 yuan a month. This unusual choice made me think deeply about my career and life. How did she come up with this decision? What kind of persistence and challenges are hidden in this?
At the beginning of the article, the woman became one of the migrant workers carrying large bags and small bags, and was nicknamed "female bricklayer". The word is like a sharp knife, revealing an unusual career choice. Reading carefully, I found that this was not her dream at the beginning, but a practical and socially acceptable choice made under various pressures and livelihood considerations.
The woman admitted in the article that she and her father belong to those who are running for life, which is a state of trying to survive. The mother kept nagging in her ear to "see how well other people's children are learning", and she persuaded her mother with "look at how much other people's children are making". This family pressure made her choose this seemingly unseemly job when she couldn't find a better way out.
Bricklayer work may seem like a lot of money, but behind it comes the price of pain in the lower back and physical discomfort. She described how the bricklayer spent only a few minutes in a day of work to straighten his back, and soon became sick from exhaustion. This made me feel that career choices are not only about income, but also about physical and mental contributions.
In the comments section of the article, some people questioned why women did not choose other, more decent occupations, while others believed that bricklayers had high incomes but also had the problem of unstable job pick-up. This debate echoes society's plurality of perspectives on career choices, with everyone making different trade-offs for their livelihoods and futures.
There are also readers in the article who share their own opinions, some mention that it is better to deliver food, and some pay attention to the hard work of bricklayers and the potential room for improvement. These perspectives made me think that everyone's career choices have their own unique backstory, and society should be more understanding and respectful of these choices.
From the perspective of bricklayer's work, a foreman shared the hardships of the industry, but also pointed out that there is a lot of room for improvement in this industry. He said that the foreman was recognized 20 years ago in decoration, and the industry has become an old man, and all kinds of bricklayers, carpenters, plumbers and electricians have a broad space for development in this industry. This made me think that different career choices may have different career prospects, and that real progress requires hard work and time.
At the end of the article, some readers shared their thoughts on the work of a bricklayer, and some said that the industry pays well, but it may not be able to get a job for most of the year. This gave me a deeper understanding of what it is like to work as a bricklayer, and it also means that choosing a career is not only about income, but also about career stability and future sustainability.
Overall, this story made me deeply reflect on the complexity of career choices. Everyone makes different trade-offs when faced with livelihoods and future considerations. It's also a reminder that we shouldn't just look at careers through the traditional lens, but rather understand and respect the stories behind each person. Perhaps, the story of the bricklayer is just the tip of the iceberg of many career choices, each of which deserves our deep thought and respect.
