Small workers and big workers

The construction site is a small society. Everyone has the same purpose - to make money to support their families, but the rewards are completely different.

A big worker can earn three to five hundred a day, while a small worker can earn more than a hundred a day. One day's salary for a big worker is as much as two or three days for a small worker. The pay for small jobs is no less than that for big jobs, but why is the pay and reward not directly proportional, and the gap is still so big?

At first, I thought these questions were about the gap between technical work and physical work, or the gap between experience and knowledge, but I found that I was wrong.

Small workers. The most effort and the least income. They can do it, but they can't do it. At first you will sympathize with them and lament their misfortune. It's not easy to feel unfair for them and think about them, but slowly you will change. In the end, they may even hate them and think that no one else is to blame for their fate.

The income gap between the same small-time workers may not be large. Small workers will do whatever you ask them to do. Not only will they not do more, they will find ways to be lazy. At the end of the day, I will ask you "What time is it?" several times. They don't know how many times they can add and subtract time. Time seems to be a kind of torture to them.

After get off work, they would smoke, drink and brag in groups, but the topic was nothing more than cats or dogs. If you ask "Why do you come out to work?" their answer is basically the same: "To support your family. If you don't have the ability, you can only work hard and can't do anything else."

"Then why not learn a skill?"< /p>

Their answers were basically the same, "I'm old. What can I learn at such an old age? I've been working all my life. If I stop working in a few years, just work blindly. It's all part-time work anyway." ."

When you meet them again a few years later, you will find that nothing has changed about them, except for the gray hair on their heads. If you ask the previous question again, their answer is still the same.

Big workers, with certain skills, can earn several times more than small workers. However, the incomes of the same large workers are also different, and the gap between them is wider than the gap between the same small workers.

There is a welder at our construction site who makes very beautiful welds, like works of art, giving people visual enjoyment. The welding done by other welders can only be considered as passing grade.

One day I asked him, "Your skills are extraordinary. How many years have you been a welder?"

"Thank you! That's an award! I've only been a welder for seven or eight years." Also, I haven’t received any extra money lately.”

“Awesome! You are a boss, so you don’t feel aggrieved.”

“What’s the point? It’s a grievance. Just do your job well. I can’t live up to the high salary.”

“Not only do you have a good job, but your level is also extraordinary.”

"It's not easy, and it's not easy to be the boss. You don't know how difficult it is to be a boss if you're not a boss. No matter what, you have to be worthy of other people's wages and your own conscience."

"Others sometimes Why don’t you take the opportunity to take a break when you go to the bathroom? You should be lazy if you don’t do it. Besides, you won’t work if you don’t take a break.”

“My salary is the highest among welders, so I’m lazy.” I'm sorry for the high salary."

I became curious and continued to ask, "I wonder if it's convenient to reveal it?"

He stretched out his finger to me and said. "As long as you know it, you can't tell others." After saying that, he got busy.

I replied: "It's worth it, it's really worth it! Don't worry, I understand!"

His answer gave me the answer and asked me to confirm again that there is a gap in their income. reason. You may have found the reason.
