Soon, Chen Xu had no time to think about other things, and he found himself in trouble.
In reality, although it was only one night, this night, he had been in the dream for half a year. After such a long time, if he is suddenly asked to do half of the work that he did on a certain day half a year ago, he will probably be confused.
Now, sitting in front of the computer, he didn't know where to start.
"By the way, the briefcase."
He opened the briefcase, turned out the contents, found a piece of information, picked it up and read it carefully, and finally got some clues.
Then he stuffed it back into his briefcase. Picking up the mouse and opening a certain file, he vaguely remembered that he was used to storing all the work materials here.
Throughout the morning, he was struggling to familiarize himself with these materials, slowly getting back to work. I dare not ask others, that would be too suspicious.
Finally made it to the noon break. Old Tang asked him to have dinner with him.
They went to the restaurant they used to go to, two streets away from the company.
When Chen Xu arrived at the store, he had the impression that the food here tastes good and the price is affordable. They used to come here quite often for lunch.
Both Old Tang and he didn't like ordering takeout, mainly because they didn't want to stay in the company all day. Taking advantage of the meal time, come out to get some air.
"Is something wrong?"
After sitting down, Old Tang asked suddenly, "I think you've been a little abnormal these two days."
Chen Xu knew that he was abnormal in the morning, but he couldn't hide it from his colleagues who worked together every day, so he said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little annoyed."
As he said that, he suddenly thought about changing jobs, so he could ask Old Tang to give him some advice.
"Actually, I want to change jobs."
"Why so suddenly?" Old Tang was surprised.
Chen Xu said helplessly, "You know my situation in the company. I've been here for almost two years, and I'm still at the same level. I don't think I can go on like this, so I might as well change jobs. Maybe there will be better development. .”
Old Tang looked at him, thinking of his situation in the company, he couldn't say anything to persuade him, and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
"Ok."
"Have a goal?"
"Not yet, let's submit your resume first. I don't have any other requirements, as long as the salary is higher than now."
While talking, the food was served, and the two chatted while eating.
After all, Old Tang had been working for a long time, so he gave him many useful suggestions.
After dinner, the two returned to the company and did not mention this matter again. It is not appropriate for other colleagues to know about resignation.
As soon as he returned to the company, he happened to meet the courier boy who came to pick up the package. Chen Xu hurriedly handed the Apple X to the courier brother. His deskmate in high school is in the next city, and he should be able to receive the phone tomorrow.
Once the money for selling the mobile phone is in hand, it will greatly relieve his financial pressure.
As soon as the courier brother left, Chen Xu picked up the cup and prepared to make a cup of tea to refresh himself.
In front of the drinking fountain, several female colleagues were chatting and gossiping, when Chen Xu suddenly heard them mention Luo Xiyun, that's when he realized that she was actually on a business trip.
He was a few levels behind Luo Xiyun, so naturally he didn't know her whereabouts. It was a relief to hear that she was on a business trip. At least, I won't meet her these days.
After receiving the water, he returned to his seat, leaning back against the chair, writing and drawing on paper while thinking.
He was recalling what happened in the dream, looking for other opportunities to make money.
He didn't think of anything useful until the end of the break. He tore off the scribbled paper casually, crumpled it up, and threw it into the wastebasket in the corner.
The ball of paper flew right into the wastebasket.
He clapped his hands, turned the chair around, took a sip of tea, cheered himself up, and continued to wrestle with the data in the computer.
...
Afterwards, Chen Xu returned to his ordinary life in the past, and only his high school deskmate received a phone call and called him 9,000 yuan, which was considered a surprise.
There is no news about the few resumes he sent out.
a week later.
As usual, he came to the company on time, and after a week of adaptation, he finally returned to his working state half a year ago.
After arriving at the company, he found that his colleagues were uncharacteristically talking together.
He turned his head and asked Old Tang, "What's the matter? Did something important happen to the company?"
"I just arrived too." Old Tang shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either.
"You haven't heard of it yet." At this time, Cai Hao, a colleague next to Chen Xu, came over and said worriedly, "Now there is news that the company is going to set up a marketing department. Canceled. Now, Lao Wang has gone to inquire about the news, and he doesn’t know what’s going on.”
Old Tang looked surprised, "Why so suddenly? There was no news at all yesterday."
Chen Xu is also aware of what this news means. Their company does not make products. The newly established marketing department obviously overlaps with the advertising department.
At that time, the new department will definitely be deprived of a lot of power, and more seriously, it will be abolished directly. No matter what the result is, it is not a good thing for them, members of the advertising department.
Of course, it had no effect on him who was ready to resign.
Speaking of which, the company he works for is not a small company. There are nearly ten large supermarket chains under it, all of which are located in the commercial center.
Counting the employees of those large supermarkets below, the company has more than 2,000 employees, which is quite a large enterprise.
As the advertising department of the headquarters, in name, it is in charge of the promotion of all stores.
However, in fact, each store is very independent. Every time there is any promotional activity, it will do it on its own. At most, it will make a report to notify it, and the advertising department can't intervene at all.
As for the reason, it's very simple. The manager of each store is a big official. In name, they are on an equal footing with the head of the marketing department, but in fact, they are more capable than you, earn more than you, and have a deeper background than you, so they don't care about your advertising department at all.
Chen Xu has been working here for almost two years, basically doing some work of summarizing data. In the peak season, I have to be transferred to the store to help run errands, which is really hard work.
This is also one of the reasons why he plans to resign. In such a relatively traditional industry, there is no backstage and the promotion channel is too narrow.
As for why the company established a marketing department at this time, he couldn't figure it out. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him.
One morning, the entire advertising department was a little panicked, and no one was in the mood to work.
Finally, the supervisor, Lao Wang, came back with news, promising that the advertising department would not be dismissed, nor would it cut staff. The newly established marketing department is responsible for online sales, and its functions do not overlap with the advertising department.
In this way, the employees below were finally appeased.
"Chen Xu, come to my office." Lao Wang stopped Chen Xu after announcing the news.
No way
Chen Xu was a little depressed. Every time Lao Wang called him to the office, nothing good happened. "Could it be that he wants to beat himself up because of his poor performance recently?"
