When an old leader of the unit retires, is it necessary to pay him New Year greetings?

It has been more than four years since our old leader retired. In these years, I still have to go to worship New Year as I did in the past.

It is usually on the morning of New Year’s Eve to pay New Year greetings to old leaders. New Year's gifts are the same every year, wrapped in a black plastic bag with a bottle of wine.

His community is not far from his work, across the road. In the past, there was a guard in the community. I put the wine in the guard's room, then called him and asked him to go downstairs to pick it up. Later, the community used access cards, so I had to sneak into the community with others, and then take the elevator to his house.

Every time, he would send me to the elevator with wine in his arms, complaining that I should not spend money. What they said the most was: "I have been retired for so long, and I can't help you with anything." He also repeatedly told me, "Don't come back next time!"

The old leader has a great deal of respect for me. kindness. Ten or twenty years ago, he personally worked and transferred me from Shangougou to the provincial capital city to work under him.

Although the salary in the unit is not high, there are welfare benefits and housing allocation. Not long after I was transferred, I was assigned an old house, 60 square meters, and it only cost 33,000 yuan.

Later, the old house was replaced with an old one, next to a key and prestigious school. Don't look at 60 square meters, it sells for more than 20,000 square meters. Tell me, is this equivalent to the old leader giving me a bonus of more than one million yuan?

In addition to paying New Year greetings, there is also a solar term, and I also want to send some gifts to the old leaders.

My home is in southern Shaanxi. Tea is produced in southern Shaanxi. Every year around Qingming Festival, I buy some tea and give it to the old leaders who love tea. He always refused and repeatedly said: "Don't spend money randomly!" He never forgot to remind me: Don't come here next time!

Of course, you don’t have to go to pay New Year greetings. However, I always feel unbearable. I know that retired people are more sensitive than working people, they understand the warmth and warmth of human relationships better, and they care more about whether the tea is cold after leaving.

Tell me, could it be that because I didn’t go, the old leader might not have had a good time during that New Year’s Day? But seeing that I choose to gradually forget him, what will he think and what will he think of me? If we meet in the future, how will we say hello?

Not going to pay New Year greetings means breaking up the relationship. When I think about the embarrassment, I feel that it is really unnecessary.

To be honest, the old leader is much richer than me. The son of the old leader is more promising, with an annual salary of one million. Therefore, the old leader’s family lacked nothing, and he did not care about a bottle of wine or a few kilograms of tea.

Over the years, in order to repay the favor, the old leader often found the best restaurants, booked a table of delicious food, brought his good cigarettes, wine and tea, and called together his direct relatives from the past to say: Talking, reminiscing about old times, having fun.

I know that he does not care about material things. What he cares about is the preservation of a relationship and the continuation of a friendship.

So, as long as he is still alive, I must pay homage to him this year. Wish you rain or shine. Worship the human heart of the world.
