In the 1970s and 1980s, which occupations were called golden rice bowl jobs?

The golden rice bowl job, euphemistically called, refers to a high-paying job that can make you worry about food and clothing for life, retire with a pension, and enjoy various benefits during normal vacations. Maybe everyone will say that this kind of golden rice bowl is rare, but in fact there are still many modern ones.

The golden rice bowl job has been sought after by countless people, both at home and abroad. Some people even disregard dignity and pay a lot of money to get a job with a golden rice bowl. The golden rice bowl works very hard. When a person gets a golden rice bowl, basically the whole family doesn't have to go hungry, so now many women will consider the golden rice bowl job as the first goal of finding a partner.

In ancient times, taking exams in Beijing was regarded as the threshold to get a golden rice bowl. As long as you take exams and explore flowers, not only one person has money, but the whole family hardly needs to go hungry. In modern times, with the continuous rise of modern financial industry in China, new ideas from abroad have been introduced, and foreign securities teachers and other professions have gradually entered the ranks of golden rice bowls, especially in government departments.

In the 1970s and 1980s, China just experienced reform and opening up, and all walks of life were in a state of great waste. The market is gradually blooming like a spring flower, the trend of thought in coastal cities is gradually prevailing, and commercial adventures at sea are gradually allowed. The so-called golden rice bowl job is not as simple and diverse as it used to be. After the country established the banking system and the securities system one after another, the golden rice bowl work increased.

In the 1970s and 1980s, the national college entrance examination was just resumed, and the young people who went to the countryside were gradually assigned jobs, so at that time, the golden rice bowls were mainly educated youth and students who could be admitted to universities. So what golden rice bowl jobs were there at that time?

At that time, one of the hottest jobs recognized by many scholars in the industry and sought after by countless people was the staff of supply and marketing cooperatives. As we all know, in the 1970s and 1980s, our country was just reforming and opening up, and its resources were limited. In order to distribute resources according to work, the state establishes cooperatives to sell daily necessities and food for the people, and the people exchange bills for these needed things.

For example, at that time, food stamps were one of the bills, and food stamps and other bills had to be inspected by the sales staff of the cooperative before they could be exchanged. To put it more vividly, the salespeople at that time were equivalent to mastering the food and clothing of ordinary people.

Since it is about their own food and clothing, ordinary people must have a good relationship with sales staff, so the staff position of supply and marketing cooperatives has become a golden rice bowl. At that time, as long as anyone had such a person, people from all over the country would come to curry favor with him without worrying about finding a wife.

Another popular job is driving. At that time, there were not many cars in China, so few people could drive. As the saying goes, things are scarce, and people who can drive must be talents needed by government agencies. Not only that, many ethnic entrepreneurs are also in urgent need of car drivers. At that time, a driver could get hundreds of dollars in salary. However, it was not easy to learn to drive at that time. The tuition alone cost several thousand yuan, and the mentoring system was implemented at that time.

The third golden rice bowl works as an announcer, especially the one sitting in the country radio room. At that time, it was very sacred to broadcast for the people of the whole country as an announcer, and it was even more difficult to appear in front of black and white TV screens. But after entering the late 1980s, this profession was no longer regarded as a golden rice bowl. After all, in the early 1990s, the professional threshold of announcers became much lower.

The fourth sought-after occupation is film projectionist. In 1970s and 1980s, film was a new thing, and there were few places where it could be reflected. As long as movies are shown anywhere, this place is still relatively rich.

Therefore, it is not easy for anyone who can show movies. It is not easy to introduce a movie casually in China. Therefore, people who show movies can get in touch with movies for the first time, and everyone will want to curry favor, so they can master certain social contacts and resources.

The fifth occupation is doorman. Generally speaking, doormen belong to national public officials. They can be doormen, educated youth or scholars. They can meet many people and have a wide range of interpersonal relationships.

The above occupations were very popular in the 1970s and 1980s, but with the evolution of the times, these occupations have almost been eliminated at present, and only a few occupations still exist. However, these occupations are the lowest and most unpopular at present. Who heard that you were a salesman, a film projectionist and an announcer before, and you were almost trampled by the matchmaker, but now how many people would rather start their own businesses than engage in these occupations?
