Disappointed, hopeful and confused travelers

Only those who have been a tour guide for more than three years can have a deep understanding of this profession.

I used to be crazy about this industry. Reading thousands of books is better than reading Wan Li Road, and reading Wan Li Road is better than reading countless people. I think the tour guide profession not only makes me want to study, but also makes me want to travel and see countless people. The most important thing is that I earn living expenses.

I don't think there is anything more satisfying than this profession. Therefore, although the journey is hard, it is painful and happy.

I worked hard to improve myself, to become a qualified and excellent tour guide, and also obtained an advanced tour guide certificate.

However, when the epidemic came, we officially declared unemployment, but we failed to recover for two years. Even if there is a little relief, the spark of hope will soon go out.

I've been waiting, and when tourism returns to its peak, we can travel again.

However, waiting and waiting, the flowers faded and opened, and the future remained bleak.

During this period, I did a lot of temporary jobs to support my life. We have no salary, no insurance and no unemployment benefits. Although the tour guide management fee is gone, we still have to pay the membership fee of the tour guide association at the same price, so we can't change the medicine without losing a penny. Not only did the tour guide card not make money, but it also cost money to buy it.

Look at all walks of life have subsidies, but we are scattered in dark corners everywhere, and no one cares. With the introduction of various relief policies in the cultural tourism industry, it seems that only tour guides are omitted. In the past, tour guides were the first to bear the brunt.

What can we do except stand on our own feet? Fortunately, the tour guide can eat anything. I can do almost any job.

Seeing that many of my peers started the live broadcast, I also picked up my mobile phone and wanted to broadcast live, taking tourists on a cloud tour, only to find that the tour guide card could not enter the scenic spot at all! ! ! In almost all scenic spots, tour guides are not allowed to enter without tour groups. No matter who I find to coordinate, tell them that I am promoting the scenic spot for free. I just want to broadcast it live, but it is fruitless.

How does the tour guide have no sense of existence? ! What window of the city, propaganda ambassador, are illusory! !

Tourist guide card, a voucher for entering and leaving the scenic spot, brings hundreds of tourists into this scenic spot every year. How ironic is it that they want to go live and find a way to live, but they can't get in?

What's even more ridiculous is that many people want to take the tour guide card every year, with only one purpose: free travel! ! What on earth made them have such a big misunderstanding? !

There are always high-end people who say that if you want to do a good job in an industry, you must love it and do it as a lifelong career. This has always been my goal. However, the current situation of tour guides really makes people unable to love wholeheartedly, and there is a feeling of "shaving their heads while they are hot". We try our best to fight for life, but it is a joke in the eyes of others. I took the "advanced tour guide card" that I finally got, but I couldn't get in at the gate of the scenic spot, let alone care about subsidies! !

I used to be under pressure when I took a tour. When I'm so tired and sweaty, I want to cry, too. In the face of public opinion prejudice, I am also very wronged. However, I have not lost a little confidence in this industry like these two years! !

What can I do to love you, my tour guide career? !

What will keep me going, my tour guide industry? !

All my enthusiasm has almost burned out, and all my expectations have been dashed, leaving only my attachment and my only hope for the future, but I don't know which day it will burn out! !
