In a workshop at the BYD branch, night had fallen, and the hands of the clock pointed to 8 o'clock in the evening. At the end of a busy day's work, workers have taken off their work clothes and changed into casual clothes. Exhaustion was written on their faces, but there was a glint of anticipation in their eyes. The anticipation of returning to their home, seeing their dear family and enjoying a delicious dinner eased their tiredness in an instant.
The mood of the workers is like the lights in the night, although they are tired, but the warmth of going home is enough to comfort the hard work of the day. They sorted out their belongings, said goodbye to each other, and hurried towards home. However, at this moment, the figure of the workshop leader appeared at the exit, and his face carried an unmistakable seriousness.
Please wait a minute, we have an urgent meeting to meet. The leader's tone was firm and clearly irrefutable.
The faces of the workers showed bewilderment and dissatisfaction, and their eyes revealed helplessness. They understand that this "little meeting" can mean more time being taken up and that reunions with their families will be postponed. However, despite the complaints in their hearts, most chose to obey, and they silently found a place to sit and wait for the meeting to begin.
In the midst of everyone's helpless or silent expressions, a young employee broke the silence. There was a sparkle of determination in his eyes, and he clenched his phone in his hand, as if it was his ** challenging injustice. He did not choose to retreat, but took a step forward, confronted the leader, and raised the question in his heart.
It's already past 8 o'clock, we all have to get off work, do we still have a meeting now? His voice was not loud, but it was clear in the quiet of the workshop.
The leader looked at the young employee with some surprise, obviously not expecting anyone to question it publicly. Other employees also looked at the brave colleague with a mixture of surprise and admiration in their eyes.
The young employee didn't stop there, he continued to ask: "If we are late for work, we will be deducted wages, so should we also be compensated for the time we occupy after work?" His question hit the nail on the head and made everyone in the room start thinking about the meaning of work and their own rights.
The leader was a little caught off guard by the young employees' doubts, but quickly regained his composure. A disapproving smile appeared on his face, as if the young employee's concerns seemed to him to be a trivial matter.
Meetings are our work needs and are for everyone's good. There was an unmistakable confidence in the leader's tone, as if his decisions were all for the good of the team.
The dissatisfaction and persistence of the younger employees did not upset the leader, who went on to explain: "I know everyone is working hard, but there are some things that need to be discussed outside of work. Please understand that this is also for our common goal. ”
The leader's response did not quell the dissatisfaction of the younger employees, but only made the atmosphere more tense. Other employees also began to whisper, feeling the contradiction in the leader's words, and their worries about work-life balance were awakened by the bravery of the young employee.
The young employee was not swayed by the leader's response, and there was a determination in his eyes that he knew he had to speak up for his rights. He took a deep breath and continued to stand his ground.
Understanding is mutual, leadership. His voice was firm and powerful, and his eyes were straight at the leader, "We have given our best during working hours, and now is our time to rest, it is time for us to reunite with our families." If we can't get our work done during working hours, then shouldn't we rethink our work arrangements instead of usurping on our personal time? ”
His words echoed through the shop floor and resonated with some employees. They began to whisper, some nodding in support, others looking at the outspoken colleague with admiration. The words of the young employees were like a pebble thrown into the calm lake, stirring up layers of ripples.
I'm not against a meeting, but I think it should be done at the right time. The young employee continued, "Our time is precious and we deserve to be respected. ”
His persistence put pressure on leaders and made other employees realize that they should also stand up for their rights. The courage of this young employee inspired them to think about how to balance work and life and how to protect their rights.
This incident quickly sparked a heated discussion on the Internet, and netizens expressed their opinions one after another. On social media, in the news comment section, and on the forum, there are discussions about the brave behavior of this young employee.
A netizen in Tianjin commented: "If you are two minutes late and deduct money, will it take two minutes to send money after work?" This is disrespectful to employee time. His words revealed his dissatisfaction with the damage to the rights and interests of employees.
Netizens in Liaoning bluntly said: "China needs such employees!" The courage to stand up and speak up for their rights and interests is an example for every employee. ”
Netizens in Hubei expressed their admiration for young employees: "Never laugh at the person who fights for the light, the light he strives for will eventually shine on you." This employee's behavior is worth learning from. ”
