Reprint: Engineer = Sweeper × 2

Thread Content

Reposting "Engineers are nothing" from "chinamachinist's personal space" for everyone to enjoy! solemn statement: The following opinions do not represent my own opinions! ! ! 　Engineer = Sweeper × 2. 　　This equal sign sounds heavy. 　　Most of the brothers and sisters who often come to browse the Internet are young people younger than me. Normally, I shouldn't write this article, and I didn't want to spoil my fun by writing this article, but I ended up writing this article anyway. Why? I’m depressed, I’m not happy if I don’t vomit, it’s a lesson learned from the past. 　　Articles express thoughts and will have an impact on the people who read them, and sometimes even have an impact on people's lives. 　　I graduated from East China University of Science and Technology on July 19, 1987. I have been working in the company for 19 years. I have already become the backbone of the production. This is an indisputable fact and there is no need to be hypocritically modest. 　　Our company is a typical manufacturing industry, with continuous mass production. It was once famous in the same industry. It was originally a state-owned enterprise and is now "restructured". 　　The workshop where I work was established in the autumn of 1991. I was one of the seven original founders and have been responsible for all technical work to this day. We are not the first to carry out this business in this industry in the country, but we are almost the same. Our products account for more than half of the same industry in the country, and at most we have reached 80%. I can say that many or even most people have seen or used the products from our workshop, which I am still proud of. 　　When working in a workshop, especially a continuous production workshop, it doesn't matter if there is a problem in any link. As soon as the machine stops, semi-finished products will pile up on the assembly line. Machine repairs and model changes can happen at any time, every 24 hours, 365 days a year. Weekends, holidays, Golden Week, leisure, travel... those are all other people's business and have nothing to do with me. I haven't taken family leave in nine years. I'm busy in the workshop. 　　I got married in 1992 and lived in a rented house. The house could only accommodate a double bed and a TV. From 1993 to 1999, we lived in the "room opposite". Some people may not know what a "house across the street" is. A "house across the street" is a house for two families. You can really hear your farts. You can imagine how awkward it is. There is nothing you can do. The house that belongs to us has an area of ​​10.3 square meters and has a balcony for cooking. In this situation, it is common for the two companies to fight and fight, and it is not uncommon for the company to fight the union. However, our two neighbors are very conscious and get along very well. It was really difficult to say goodbye before parting. This can be regarded as a model among those who live in the "house opposite"! I am not humble anymore. 　　At the end of 1998, the company needed to buy some housing. This was not a house allocation. It had to pay 42,000 yuan. It was only about 40,000 yuan. Rich people took it out of their pockets, but I had to scrape 30,000 yuan from my parents to get it done. My mother is unemployed, and my father is a teacher. His salary was the entire family's source of livelihood, allowing my brother and I to finish college. The teachers at that time were not the teachers today. A salary of only a few hundred yuan was not paid for half a year. You can imagine how the 30,000 yuan was saved! 　　The house is a rough house and needs to be renovated, otherwise it will be uninhabitable. If you don’t have money, you have to do what you can, and if you don’t have time, you can only take time off work. Anyone who has decorated a house, especially those who don’t have much money, knows what it’s like. My house decoration has finally become a “cross-century project.” 　　Maybe someone has questions: Why are you so poor? Could it be that you took advantage of everything by eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and smoking? 　　To tell you the truth, I don’t touch any of the five poisons. I don’t smoke, drink, play poker, or wear clothes (not naked, but I mean I never dress up, as long as my clothes can cover my body and keep warm. This is why I got the glorious nickname "Old Eighth Route". When I was looking for a partner on July 5, 1992, I was wearing the same nylon-like "Hong Kong shirt" that my mother bought me before I left for college in 1983! Not to mention, they just foolishly followed me! And the relationship between husband and wife is very deep, hee hee). 　　I went to school in Shanghai for four years. During this period, I never ate out once in a restaurant or watched a movie outside the school. I only wore a pair of Shanghai Buyun brand sneakers and a pair of sandals. You may not believe it, but I swear I am not telling lies. There is no need for me to lie here, right? You can swear by anything. Those sandals had foam soles, and the soles were 4 centimeters thick when I first bought them (I really liked this at the time, hehe! ), the thinnest part at the toes when I left school was 4 mm, I really couldn’t bear to throw it away. 　　I should at least be somewhat qualified in this company, and my income should be considerable and enviable. Let me tell you, my salary has increased significantly after the "restructuring" last year. Now my monthly salary is 16,380 cents. I occasionally get a bonus of 20,000 cents, but that's it. The company also gave me 10,000 cents as an extra during the Chinese New Year last year. This is because I became the deputy director of the workshop last year and was given such a number. If I were just an engineer, huh. 　　Some brothers and sisters may want to ask again.: “How much has it increased? I can also tell you that it has nearly doubled! In other words, I, a dignified graduate of a key university and an engineer for more than ten years, earns a three-digit salary! (Note: (in RMB)) When I first started working, my monthly salary was 50 yuan, and I received double-digit wages for several years. Now in yuan terms, it’s four figures. 　　Temporary workers and cleaners who pull cars in the company can earn up to 700 to 800 yuan a month. They are also paid by employees who are not officials. None of the people who drive cars work in the workshop. 　　I had a late awakening, about ten years later than the average person. I only figured it out when I was older.: What is an engineer? Engineers work for businessmen. Although engineers are no longer called "stinky old nine" in China, they are still just stinky workers. Note that they are "stinky" workers! He is a man who works harder when he is able, and who works hard all his life and is poor all his life! He is a person who has been busy all his life and can only have enough food and clothing! It's a banquet * The person who never dares to say "I bought this item" after leaving! Maybe I am someone who sits under a well * * , but every one of the engineers around me has this virtue! Not as advertised! I'm still better than them! 　　After three days of separation, we saw each other with admiration. The classmates I studied with back then are now doing everything, and there are already many millionaires and multi-millionaires. October 26, 2002 was the 50th anniversary of my alma mater. My old squad leader in Shanghai organized a class reunion. My classmates called me countless times to come. I was really tempted. I really missed them. I have returned to my alma mater countless times in my dreams. Can I not want to see them? But, I still didn’t go in the end, why? Many of my classmates drove there, but what about me? At that time, I had never even touched a mobile phone! You are dwarfed by others, you are ashamed of yourself, you are embarrassed, what are you going to do? ! 　　China's manufacturing industry has always made progress compared with before, but it is still the same as that of developed countries. * * They are not on the same level at all and cannot make high-end things. Don’t tell me anything about Shenwu Shenli. It is indeed high-tech and not simple, but can you say that it is not a tribute? Ten thousand parts are made, and a qualified one is selected for use. Give it a try in mass production! Let’s see what percentage of people can go up to heaven and come back down again? “Concentrate your efforts to do big things”—the superiority of the socialist system is reflected in this. 　　“If you are poor, you will want to change." This is the truth. Why can't China make high-end things? You will know this after spending some time in a factory. Just think about it, who makes the products in the factory? Who else but engineers and skilled workers? Could it be that the boss did it? Could it be that the managers did it? If every engineer is in poverty and every industrial worker is in precarious situation, they are all "thinking about change" and their hearts are restless, who will devote all their energy to their work wholeheartedly? What will the factory look like? What high-end products can be produced? 　　Unfortunately, this is common. 　　The mentality of the bosses is: If I can give you one less point, I will give you one less point. If I can give you one less point, I will leave one more point. It would be great if I could just work for free! It’s best to have money to buy work! What what? Did you hear it wrong? You heard it right! Haven't you heard of it? Even worse than me! 　　This is completely understandable why some people have calculated that the average life span of private enterprises in our country is only about six years. 　　Therefore, I would like to shamelessly warn young engineers or brothers and sisters who are about to become engineers.: If you are not willing to settle down in poverty, if you are not sure of becoming a high-level official, don’t enter the factory until you die. Once you enter the factory, don’t leave the workshop until you die. If unfortunately you end up in the workshop, I have two more words for you.: Tough luck! 　　There are many engineers who receive high salaries, but I would say that they are rare, right? In a factory, a small boss usually earns more than an engineer. I am a typical example. The reason why I get such a "high salary" now is because I am a small boss, not because I am a "technical master" as the boss has repeatedly called me face to face. 　　Knowledge and technology have not been valuable in China since ancient times, and this is still the case today. Nowadays, those who insist on valuing knowledge, technology, and talents are just talking nonsense. It is over when money is actually used to reflect value. If you want to make money, you still have to find ways to become an official. If you can become * * As a civil servant, it would be even better to be a public servant of the people! “Three years to clear the magistrate's office, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver!" Ah! 　　Although we are no longer in the era of 'the more knowledge, the more reactionary' we have, but it is indeed the era of 'the more knowledge, the more we suffer'! 　　Because income is seriously disproportionate to ability and contribution. People with greater ability and contribution can earn slightly more in absolute terms than people with lesser abilities. It seems that your salary is indeed higher than his, but it is not proportional. The salary of an engineer with my qualifications is equivalent to that of two temporary workers or cleaners pulling trucks. Is it proportional? In any enterprise, is the contribution of one engineer only equivalent to that of two workers pulling carts or sweeping floors? If I were a temporary worker pulling a cart or a cleaner, I wouldn't have so many complaints if I was given such a high salary. Some people say why do you always talk about cart pullers and floor sweepers? I’m not looking down on cart pullers and floor sweepers. The carts must be pulled by someone, and the floor must be swept. Pulling carts and sweeping floors are also work, and cart pullers and floor sweepers also rely on their own labor to earn a living, which is also glorious. Laborers, I talk about these two types of work because in all enterprises, pulling carts and sweeping floors are the simplest jobs, and they are paid the lowest wages. This kind of work can be done by an individual as long as the limbs are complete and the mind is not very stupid. Is this job only half as complex as that of an engineer? 　　I want to warn bosses: When you desperately lower wages, you are also lowering your profits and shortening the life of your company! Of course, I say it in vain. Bosses generally don’t read my articles. 　　The brother said, haven't you heard in the news that the salary of engineers or technical workers in a certain company is higher than that of the boss? I want to ask: What is news? It's not news that a dog bites a man, but it is news that a man bites a dog, right? Why did this make the news? It’s rare and few, not to mention how much hype there is in it! 　　In Chinese society, technology is not valuable, and engineers are not valuable. They do not have much value, or strictly speaking, they cannot realize their value. 　　What? Value cannot be measured in money? How long have you been using this to deceive people? The value of this sentence is about the same as fart. If you don’t use money to measure it, what should you use to measure it? I'm too lazy to raise the issue! 　　The income of an engineer really cannot keep up with that of a beggar! 　　Look at the society, how many old engineers and senior engineers who started working in the 1960s and have been working for more than 40 years are honest, diligent, conscientious, and have worked hard all their lives. How many of them are struggling to survive with a pension of 500 to 600 yuan a month and have a miserable life! Retirees with the same qualifications in government agencies and public institutions receive a monthly pension of several thousand yuan. Senior workers are no longer as good as sweepers when they get old! 　　Fortunately, we have been shouting about respecting knowledge, respecting talents, and improving the treatment of intellectuals for so many years that we respect them so much and have improved them to this level. Otherwise, I am afraid that engineers will end up living on the streets and begging on the streets when they get old! How sad! ! ! 　　I would like to warn brothers and sisters who want to become engineers.: One engineer equals two sweepers. Being an engineer can only make a living! It’s good if you’re not hungry! If you want your parents, wife, and children to have a less tight life, live a respectable life among relatives and friends in society, you have to think of other ways, otherwise you may not be able to afford your children's education in the future! There is no future, so let’s learn from the past and think twice! 　　Sad, really sad! This is not only a tragedy for engineers; * * The sorrow! Without a stable team of engineers, how can we talk about a developed manufacturing industry? Without a developed manufacturing industry, what is there to talk about? * * The rise of? Where is the foundation? What kind of science and technology power is there to dream about? 　　Engineer was once a sacred word in my mind, and it should indeed be a sacred word, a career that is desirable and enviable. However, after being an engineer for so many years, I thought, "That's a relief!" ”
