Choose a career you love, even if it's "not good" in the eyes of ordinary people in the service industry, and can also do it among the best. People are amazed. Not to the immediate environment and change their original intention, such a person no matter what line can do a good job, such as the girl. China's most "expensive" waiter Yao Bi: 3 times for the state banquet service, famous by the international hotel competition.
University graduate waitress
Yao Bi, a Changsha girl born in 1995, grew up under her parents' tutelage. Growing up under the education of her parents, she was a well-read, well-behaved and lovely girl.
But this Yao Bi is very own opinion, since childhood, her academic performance is very good, if not unexpected, after graduation from college life plan is like many of his peers, choose a large enterprise, do the appearance of the bright white-collar work.
But Yao Bi did not, from the beginning of the choice of college majors, she has a clear plan for their future life. She chose to specialize in hotel management during her college years.
The parents were not sure about their daughter's choice; after all, when it came to choosing a job, many people chose to work in a field other than the one they had studied in college. They assumed Yao Bi would do the same.
But they were wrong. After graduating from college, Yao Bi chose to work at a five-star hotel in Changsha. It was only at this moment that they realized that Yao Bi really liked the hotel service industry.
When you work in a hotel, especially a star hotel, it doesn't matter how good you were in college. As long as you are a new employee who just entered the hotel, you have to start from the most basic waiter.
Yao Bi is no exception, in Changsha after entering the star hotel, Yao Bi from the most basic catering department waiter.
In addition to her daily work, Yao Bi received a variety of vocational training. She had to practice countless times a day, from standing to putting a spoon on the table.
In fact, this kind of training is very boring, but for Yao Bi is different, she feels very fulfilled every day, every day has learned different knowledge.
A minute on the stage and ten years of work under the stage, this sentence is to the previous people singing on the stage. But now it reflects a professional spirit.
After returning home, Yao Bi still does not forget to train hard, as long as she has time, she will look in the mirror and repeatedly practice her stance, the speed of speech and all kinds of subtle movements between hands and feet.
If you don't really like the hotel service industry, many people can't stick with it. Because it involves too many trivial details, it is a job that requires a great deal of patience and tenacity to persevere.
Hotel service industry staff, especially the most basic waiter, in my opinion is like a piece of art that is constantly being polished and sculpted.
The etiquette training alone involves a variety of subtle parts of the line, walking, sitting, standing, for expression control is also quite strict. That is to say, for a person's knitted brows, a smile, a hand and a throw between, like a clear scale ruler to measure, a little over the line to start again.
Obviously Yao Bi is really like this job, not half a year, her efforts to be seen by the leadership, from the original an ordinary waiter quickly promoted to the hotel management.
At the age of 25, she has already experienced three state banquet services
It's the gold that always shines, and that's what Yao Bi is like. Yao Bi has grown up quickly, practicing and polishing herself over and over again.
Likewise, many opportunities come to those who are prepared, and in 2016, InterContinental North Star hosted the G20 Summit in Hangzhou, where a group of waiters with outstanding personal qualities were selected to serve at one of the state banquets.
At the time, Yao Bi, who was 21 years old, was chosen.
The threshold for becoming a state banquet waiter is almost as high as that for a pilot.
The state banquet not only has strict uniform standards for the waiter's appearance, height and body type, but also has hard rules for the voice. Too hoarse or too sharp voice can not become a state banquet waiter.
From this point of view, Yao Bi is lucky, because her external conditions fully meet these requirements.
But this is only the first threshold to enter the state banquet, with the external conditions, but also need to be lined up inside. The state banquet for the waiter's education, English level also have strict and detailed requirements, so only the outside is not enough.
But Yao Bi's efforts have not been in vain, from high school on the future career path of her can be said to have done years of preparation for these. In addition to her daily vocational training, Yao Bi, a college graduate, also practiced foreign languages. Because she knows that when you work in a star hotel, you're dealing with guests from all over the world," she said.
It can be said that the young Yao Bi can be selected to become a state banquet waiter that is reasonable, but also her efforts due to the inevitable results.
Unsurprisingly, Yao Bi did an excellent job of serving at the G20 summit.
The following year, Yao Bi was again invited to serve at the BRICS Summit in Xiamen, and in 2018, she was invited to serve at the Qingdao Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, but this time as a manager with a team of 100 people.
Before that, Yao Bi led the team through more than 10 hours of etiquette training every day, as well as training them on how to serve the food in a short period of time.
The state banquet service, Yao Bi, as in the previous two times, was well received.
It's already a big deal for a hotel waitress to be a state banquet waitress once, not to mention Yao Bi's outstanding performance in three state banquet services, which makes her really the most "expensive" waitress in China.
This resume is impeccable for any high-star hotel in the industry. And after serving at three state banquets, Yao Bi was indeed in demand from many international hotels.
But Yao Bi has not been swayed by the high salaries and benefits offered by those hotels, and she is still working at her original hotel.
Yao Bi said her next goal is to take part in the fourth state banquet service and become the commander-in-chief of the service.
Non-people follow the trend out of their own way
Yao Bi all the way can be described as smooth sailing, full of green lights. But behind this seemingly high step, but she is day and night non-stop hard training and high standards for their own strict requirements.
She doesn't distinguish between high and low professions, she just pursues what she loves and is willing to put in all kinds of hard work. This kind of perseverance, this kind of spirit is hard to be equated with a post-95 girl.
Post-95, this year is only 25 years old, the same age as the flower, the mind is active, frequent job-hopping this is a relatively normal thing. But these are not in Yao Bi's body, she knew what she wanted a long time ago, and does not care about the views of others and say, adhere to their own views, adhere to the original intention.
Summary:
Following the crowd is a common phenomenon in every era, how others do what they do, what others choose to specialize in what they choose to specialize in. This kind of embracing method of doing things seems to give people a safe, reliable feeling, however, are not from the heart like.
Over time, what you really like in your heart is gradually forgotten in such an atmosphere of following the crowd, and then you start to complain about why your life is as boring and dull as the walking dead.
But has it ever occurred to you that the culprit for all this is your own personality that goes with the flow?
Yao Bi is obviously not the group of people who follow the crowd, she used her own years of hard work out of their own way, this era is just Yao Bi such a lack of young people, non-people, the courage to pursue their own love. Has been unpopular hotel service industry also in Yao Bi's feet, because of her love, out of the brilliant pace.
