"I almost died just now?"
Chen Ming was shocked. He was only in his early twenties.
It was the time when the young man was at his healthiest.
In the past, he was the track and field champion in the school sports meet in high school.
He was also a frequent visitor to the basketball court in university. He was good at fighting and running, and his physical fitness was amazing.
However, ever since he entered Penguin.
Sports? Don't mention it.
Training? How could he have the time?
He was like a donkey grinding around a millstone, unable to stop at all.
Other than working overtime, he was editing documents. He did not stick to his daily routine or diet at all. He could clearly feel that his physical condition was getting worse.
The most intuitive feeling was that the abdominal muscles that he had maintained for a few years were now replaced by fat.
Tonight, this had happened, and he had almost sent her away.
If this continued, he might not have enough money to buy a house before he collapsed.
Inexplicably, the thought of quitting arose in his heart.
Penguin was indeed a big internet company in the eyes of many workers.
He knew how many people envied his position.
However, he was afraid that he would not be able to spend his money.
Moreover, his salary was not high. Compared to the salary of a programmer, which was 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, his position was only slightly more than 10,000 yuan.
Excluding his daily expenses and high rent, he could only save a few thousand yuan a month.
For this little bit of money, he kept working overtime and making his body worse and worse. What was he after?
Facing the elevator door, Chen Ming fell into deep thought.
Dreams?
When he first applied for the position of game copywriter, it was also because of his passion.
Ever since he was young, he had been exposed to games of all sizes, from two-person puzzle games on small websites to triple-A masterpieces.
He was willing to spend the rest of his life making his own game.
As a newcomer, the closest thing to this dream was undoubtedly joining a big factory.
He was from a famous university and had made a game guide online when he was in university.
Just like that, he was hired by Penguin during the on-campus job fair and became the envy of everyone.
After the internship, he successfully became a full-time employee.
He had thought that he would be able to show off his skills and create an epoch-making game with his colleagues.
However, reality was often harsh.
The edges and corners that came out of the ivory tower and the love for games were gradually worn away by the hard work day after day.
Thinking of this, he took out his phone.
She clicked on the main planner's chat box at the top of WeChat. At this moment, she was still stuck on his message: " Chief planner, the second version of the document has been sent to the email. Please check it."
He typed in the words,"Chief planner, I want to resign."
If she resigned, everything would be set free…
However, just as his thumb stopped at the send button.
Chen Ming suddenly came back to his senses and found that his thoughts had already been typed into the input box, turning into clear black words on the white screen.
Moreover, he was only one step away from sending it.
He calmed down and examined his heart.
If he resigned, how would his family, classmates, and friends view him?
Would they think that their brains were fried?
To resign from such a good job, all those years of hard work, exams, interviews…were all in vain?
Besides, what would he do after he resigned? Could he find a better job than his current one?
For a moment, he could not send this sentence out.
In the end, Chen Ming silently deleted this sentence and watched as the input box slowly turned blank.
Ding dong.
The elevator door opened.
He quickly walked into the elevator and felt the space falling.
This was the helplessness and bitterness of adults. They did not want to be stuck in the status quo, but there was nothing they could do.
……
Walking out of the company's main entrance, in the vast night sky.
Chen Ming hailed a taxi and whispered his address.
The taxi driver was in high spirits. He smiled and teased,"You young people are really hardworking, working overtime until so late.”
Chen Ming laughed at himself and did not reply.
She thought helplessly, Do you think I'm willing? It's all because of life.
Sitting in the car, he allowed the night wind to brush past his brows. Because of the entanglement and frustration in his heart, he did not feel sleepy.
The car drove through the empty streets.
At a traffic light, the taxi slowed down and stopped at an empty intersection.
The green numbers on the sidewalk gradually became smaller.
Chen Ming subconsciously looked out the window.
Beside the road, there was a banner that was illuminated by red light." Go to the place where the people need while you are young!”
It was currently the conscription season.
This was the banner hung on the building of the local armed forces department in Peng City.
Chen Ming's eyes lit up when he saw the banner.
On this cold night, the depression and confusion that she had felt earlier were swept away, and she felt a warmth in her heart.
"Yeah, I can join the army!”
Speaking of which, Chen Ming had wanted to become a soldier when he was young.
Holding a steel spear and protecting the country, he was handsome and had a sense of justice.
However, his academic performance was too good. He got into Fudan University directly after the college entrance examination. Naturally, he could not join the army.
Even if he went, his family would not agree.
After all, in the eyes of many people, being a soldier was a way out for many children who could not get into a good university.
You have a bright future ahead of you, why do you want to join the army?
But now, he was already tired of the workplace that was full of internal strife and internal friction.
Going to the military camp was undoubtedly the best choice for now.
Get rid of the inner workings of overtime, stay away from the ways of the world, and cheat each other.
As long as one was sincere, it was the purest place.
Moreover, he didn't need to eat takeout every day. He could also exercise and get back what he had lost.
Most importantly, he could save money!
There wasn't much to spend in the army, so the allowance could be saved.
After retirement, there would be a retirement fee. With this money and the 100,000 yuan he had saved this year, wouldn't it be great to open a small shop?
The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible.
In his mind, he had already changed into a military uniform and was training. His heart instantly lit up with longing for the military camp.
Thinking of this, he quickly checked the recruitment conditions on his phone.
He didn't know if there were any changes to the conscription policy now.
The first thing to look at was the hard targets.
The age requirement for enlistment was usually 18 to 20 years old, but for undergraduate students, it could be relaxed to 24 years old.
He had only been working for a year and was only 23 this year. He met the requirements.
In addition, he was from a famous university. Now that the army would prioritize hiring college students with high academic qualifications, his hopes were even greater.
Moreover, his family background was clean, so there would definitely be no problem with the political review.
On the other hand, Chen Ming did not have any diseases or tattoos, whether it was his family history or his personal life. He looked down and found that he met all the conditions.
Chen Ming was secretly glad that he was not short-sighted. If he worked for another year or so, he might have to go for a vision correction surgery.
But now, he had passed perfectly.
This might be the best arrangement.
At that moment, Chen Ming made up his mind to join the army.
