My name is Li Shihong,
1997 was laid off in July, and at the same time, her husband who worked in a state-owned enterprise was laid off. Facing the dilemma of cooking without rice, facing the infant child and facing the elderly mother-in-law, I realized how important work is to a person. We looked through the newspaper for job advertisements and asked our relatives and friends about job hunting, and we were at a loss.
Later, I worked as a salesman in a shopping mall and an insurance company. I always work a few hours longer than others. In order to make more money, I also help people cook supper and process sauce. Later, I learned from my neighbors that in my case, I can receive unemployment benefits from the street. I found Zhongshan Road Sub-district Office with the mentality of giving it a try. Comrades from the Street Labor and Social Security Service Center warmly received me and asked me about my life and what difficulties I had. In the face of warm concern, I was particularly moved and poured out what I had hidden in my heart. They listened carefully and encouraged me to say, you are so young and have personality, why can't you change your mind and turn "important positions" into "creating jobs"? This not only solves the personal employment problem, but also serves the society, and the government will fully support you.
When I got home, I thought about it over and over again. What's my specialty? Which major can help me succeed in my career? I want to run a restaurant, and when I discussed it with my husband, he also praised it. We turned to find a place, and finally took a fancy to a place in Haibo Food Street, but asked someone, and the annual rent was 37,000. For our small family, which is not rich, this is undoubtedly an astronomical figure, which is equivalent to pouring cold water on my feverish mind. At this time, the street office extended a helping hand to us and gave us the first venture capital of 2000 yuan. Although the money is not much, it is of great significance and has once again ignited our passion for starting a business. The sentence "If you have difficulty finding your mother's family, you are welcome to come home often" made me almost cry. In the next few days, my husband and I ran around to borrow money from relatives and friends, and finally got enough 30 thousand yuan. It was only over a month before the Chinese New Year, and it took a day before the other party agreed to rent the house to us.
In this way, my husband and I both became bosses and partners in our new jobs. No matter how many people there are, make sure to open the door every day; No matter whether the food is expensive or cheap, we must ensure the quality first. I was busy until New Year's Eve, and I took a few sauced chickens back to my mother-in-law's house. Because we have no time or money to buy new year's goods, let alone buy some new clothes. My mother-in-law understood our affairs very well, and the family was happy, but the pressure in our hearts was already great enough at that time. Whether the hotel can run well is not only related to our work, but also to the credibility of debt repayment and the expectation of the government.
I believe sincerity will eventually be rewarded. Soon, the business of our hotel began to flourish, and the withdrawal of funds also accelerated. My husband and I discussed that we should seize business opportunities and expand the scale. Later, we took a fancy to a newly-built store on Hexing Road, so we rushed to Weihai Road Industrial and Commercial Office to consult about the business license. I didn't know until I asked. Running a hotel involves many departments' approval, and I don't know what to do at the moment. The staff of the industrial and commercial office were very sympathetic when they learned that we were laid-off workers and borrowed money to run a hotel. They personally led us to the relevant departments that need pre-approval of the business license, and helped us to introduce the situation and go through the relevant procedures, so that we could name this home-cooked restaurant after my daughter: Yu Cong. This means that we should take care of this hotel as carefully as our own daughter. With the business getting better and better, I first thought of the laid-off and unemployed sisters who had the same experience as me. I hired a dozen laid-off workers to do catering and cleaning.
But not long after, an elder sister offered to resign. I know her family life is very difficult, so there must be a reason for not doing it. I learned from the heart-to-heart conversation that she was mainly afraid of losing face. I was angry and sympathetic, and finally I changed her job in order to keep her. Once, an employee had an accident at work, so I quickly went to the hospital to pay the medical expenses. Later, I drove him home to recuperate. When his illness was a little better, I bought fruit to thank me. I said, you have poor economic conditions. How can you eat what you bought? You should take the time to recuperate and come back to work after your injury!
Sincere to employees, let this group be United and friendly like a family, and everyone's work enthusiasm is high. "Yu Cong will always be sincere and serve every day with enthusiasm" has become the consensus of everyone. The word-of-mouth brand was launched, which also brought booming business to the store. Now I have grown to three chain stores, with more than 0/00 employees, including laid-off workers.
My road to entrepreneurship has been strongly supported by the party and the government, and various preferential policies for laid-off workers have also been fully implemented here. The only thing I can repay is to run the enterprise well, strive to expand the scale, create more jobs and solve problems for the party and the government.
