Are you like many people?
Have no intention of working or studying. …

Some people insist on learning to charge,
Some people regard this place as outside the company.
Another office space …
Interviewee: I’m in finance. I came here mainly to study and read my professional books.
Interviewee: Charge yourself, finance.

Liu Jianqiang, a former programmer.
I have been unemployed for a month now.
Keep secrets from your wife every day.
Come to the library to "work" …
"My wife doesn’t know that I am unemployed."
"My wife doesn’t know that I am unemployed. I’ve always said it’s a (normal) commute, but I’m actually just coming to the library. Go out around 9: 00 every morning, usually have lunch at a convenience store near the library, and go home at 7 or 8: 00 in the evening. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are fewer recruitment positions. It should be a bit difficult to find a job now. "
Liu Jianqiang, a 35-year-old native of Qujing, Yunnan, recently left her job as a programmer in a company in Shanghai.
"The five-day task, the superior requires three days to complete, and then go back and often work overtime. When I left, the boss also said that programmers should be able to withstand pressure and not have’ blx’. " His last job overwhelmed him, which was the main reason for his leaving.
"If you are at home, the efficiency is low and the weather is cold. You can rub the air conditioner when you come to the library." On the second day of unemployment, Liu Jianqiang took the subway for more than an hour and came to Xujiahui Academy. Finding a seat, he began to submit his resume, take online classes, and write code … The workday without work was also very busy.
"I am now a sea investment, and I have already voted for fifty or sixty resumes. Most of these recruiters want a copy of your resume, and then there is no news, and some just can’t read it back. " He said that he was ready to find a job for a month or two.
In 2013, Liu Jianqiang graduated from a college in Shanghai. He worked as a printer for ten years before switching to a programmer.
"I used to print milk boxes and do quick graphics and text printing in school. It’s good to do it, but I just feel that there is no goal. I want to find a new direction and break through myself. " Later, he used his time after work to watch video courses and take notes. He taught himself for two years and turned to be a programmer.
Liu Jianqiang told reporters that in 2021, he will have an interview for every 100 resumes he submits. But since last year, he has to submit hundreds of resumes to get an interview.
Now he is applying for a job in naked resignation again. Liu Jianqiang has set the salary target for his new job at 10,000 yuan. If he really can’t find anyone who meets the requirements, he is willing to lower the requirements. In his view, the most important thing is to balance work and life.
"Most of these companies require you to graduate from college for five to ten years. A 35-year-old like me is either a manager or a project manager or an architect. I am very embarrassed when I just changed careers in such a new year. " Liu Jianqiang said.
I have given my wife a "vaccination"
But I still don’t have the courage to confess …
Regarding unemployment, Liu Jianqiang gave his wife a "vaccination". However, after being unemployed for several weeks, he still didn’t have the courage to confess: "The reason why I didn’t tell her was not to hide anything, mainly because it didn’t work. Isn’t it necessary to find a job yourself? She is also under great pressure. "
The reporter asked, what if she saw this program and knew that you haven’t found a job yet? Liu Jianqiang hesitated and said, "It doesn’t matter. If you know, you’ll know. It’s a big deal to be teased by her."
At seven o’clock in the evening, Liu Jianqiang left the library
He will go home from work on time.
When we left the library, Liu Jianqiang invited us to his home. As soon as he entered the door, his wife, Yang Kaiyan, began to share their dull but sweet lives with us: "When he gets off work, he will go shopping and then cook together. Two people, there is nothing to pursue. "
In 2018, his wife, Yang Kaiyan, came to Shanghai from her hometown of Yunnan with Liu Jianqiang, and now she is a telephone customer service staff of a company.
At the beginning of 2023, their daughter was born, and when the child was five months old, Liu Jianqiang’s parents took it back to their hometown to take care of it. Video calling with my daughter at dinner time is the happiest moment for the young couple every day.
"I am happy when I see my daughter!" Yang Kaiyan said, "I also want to accompany my daughter, but now I feel unstable at work. Our company has (personnel) changes, and I don’t know if their company has it. "
Then, Liu Jianqiang decided to sound out his wife. "I told you, I’m going to change my job."
Yang Kaiyan: When did you tell me? What job do you want to change?
Liu Jianqiang: That is, the programmer. I’m looking for it again. This is normal, right?
Happiness in a plain life
The wife didn’t really blame her husband.
Yang Kaiyan didn’t blame her husband, but she was inevitably worried. "I thought you were going to change careers, which scared me to death. Don’t change. In fact, this age is not suitable for too much beating. The expenses of children are relatively large, and all aspects of the family are not like when they first came to Shanghai. It is a family life for two people to live well. "
This year’s Spring Festival, the young couple went back to their hometown in Yunnan for the New Year. They have already prepared a birthday present for their daughter.
"In the new year, we must be happy first, and then hope that our work will be smooth. I just hope he can settle down a little, and I don’t need him to bear the pressure of life unilaterally, because I will accompany him. " Facing the camera, Yang Kaiyan spoke her New Year’s wishes.
It’s not easy for adults
Most of the time, you can only swallow it in your stomach.
Whether it’s Liu Jianqiang
Or his wife Yang Kaiyan.
Their interviews were filled with smiles.
But … the inner pain, the hardships of life.
Maybe only this couple can understand it themselves.
Some netizens said
The wife may always be clear in her heart.
Just "silent"
More netizens expressed their blessings.
I hope year of the loong can be well.
Find a new direction as soon as possible
