[Post] A monthly account for migrant workers (see tears)

 

There are many migrant workers living in the city. Most of them come to the city from the edge of the city, in order to earn money to support their families. they have made great contributions to the prosperity of the city, and they are also the most easily overlooked. for a long time, they have been discriminated against by most people in the city. Of course, some people care about them, but most of them are in form or to some extent. no one really cares about their civil rights, and no one cares about their lives. Maybe everyone forgets that they are farmers and are groups that account for 80% of the country's population, it is the foundation of the founding of the country and the pillar stone of the country.

There are about 2 million workers in my city, and they are responsible for more than 90% of the physical labor in this city. there is a kind of tool that migrant workers call "sticks" locally. The tool for earning a living is a pole and two ropes. The way to make a living is to help people in cities like me with heavy lifting. the same is true for companies where employees are not willing to move heavy items. for convenience, the eldest sister of the company's administration department fixed a migrant worker with a pager, which was about 35 or 6 years old. Every time she saw this office call and called him, she immediately arrived. If she couldn't catch up too far, just make a call. when we get to know each other, we get familiar with each other. because reimbursement is too troublesome, most of them are white-handed help. In his words, it means no cost at all. in the eyes of the Administrative elder sister, she gave us more money every week when checking out the bills, and often counted us. Even the hard work of others had to be deducted.

At noon yesterday, he moved things in our company and squatted at the door of the company to remember things. I think he was very laborious in writing and told him to sit down and write in my office position. inadvertently, I found that he was accounting, which aroused a lot of interest in me (I was absolutely not interested in his privacy, it was purely curious), so I took it and looked at it, his account-keeping is the kind of sequential account (in fact, it is a sum of money). I will perform a rough calculation and sort it out. You can take a look and have some explanations at the same time, I wrote it down after asking him.

The account is the total revenue for March: about 770 yuan (roughly, but not more than 800)

Rent: 50 RMB (4 people share a room)

Management Fee: 20 RMB (the temporary residence fee charged by the street, including 10 RMB)

Meal fee; 140 yuan (1 for breakfast, 4 for lunch)

Buy food; 27 RMB (4 people buy food in turn every day and cook together)

Buy rice; 15 yuan (originally owned rice, but back-trip fare is more expensive than buy rice)

Daily use; 30 RMB (including oil, salt, paper, etc)

Buy cigarettes; 20 yuan (two yuan a pack, three days smoke a pack)

Communication fee; 17 RMB (including phone calls and email writing)

Transportation fee; 3 RMB (basic daily traffic)

Living expenses for the son; 200 yuan (the son is in high school in the county)

Buy a dress for his wife; $20 (it is estimated that it was bought on the stall. "I didn't buy her new clothes for half a year." He said this with embarrassment)

Send home; 150 RMB (save it to your son)

Sent to the mother for medical treatment; 50 yuan (the mother's drug fee is shared by three siblings)

Unexpected expenses: 60 yuan (a 10 yuan penalty was imposed to seize the live across the road, a pick and touch a young man, was blackmailed 50 laundry fees)

I looked at his expenses, and he was very sad. He said that our company's people are very good. He often gave him money-selling items (that is, waste newspapers, empty packing boxes, there is also an expired publicity product). A girl once gave him a dress (an advertisement shirt for publicity), and the elder sister of the Administration Department also asked him to call home long distances using our office phone, he just felt embarrassed. He also had water and drinks every time he worked on us. Sometimes there was smoke (I was speechless, we told him to do something, and sometimes gave him smoke)
He is most afraid of illness, even a cold and fever. The most important thing he wants is that his son can go to college and his mother can get well. The least thing he wants to do is to go to his house as a village cadre, if I go there, I want to ask for money (there are many taxes and more vendors)

He came out to work at six o'clock every day and went back at. The happiest time was to eat and go to the shop to watch TV. I asked him why he didn't contract fish ponds or orchards in his hometown. He smiled and said, it wasn't what they could contract. The good places all let the relevant work go, he does not know what civil rights are. He has never seen a vote for such a long time. he knows about the WTO and often talks about it in the news, but he doesn't understand politics or economics. He just wants to earn 10 more yuan a day, in this way, you can have more money each month to buy better medicines for your mother, send more living expenses to your son, and buy more nice clothes for your wife. he was afraid of death because he had to fight for the family. His mother, wife, and son wanted him to support the family. his biggest wish is to save some money for small business and make his own economy more plentiful.

This is a monthly account book and self-owned by ordinary migrant workers. There are 0.7 billion of them in China. He is a medium member of this group. They have no lofty ideals. They live at the bottom of this country, they are the cornerstone of this country. They have not received any funding from this country and have not enjoyed any welfare from this country. At key times, they are also the most easily forgotten and bullied groups, we do not even want to regard them as part of our civilization with thousands of years of history.

We seem to think too little about them. everyone can ask themselves whether you have paid attention to them. When you think about them, when a common migrant worker stands beside you, the sweat on his body passes into your nostrils, will you hide your nose. I used to, but I don't know if I will. I think I am very patriotic, but now I think I used to shout slogans. I can't help them. What I can do is to donate a few small dollars to the "Love 1 help 1" activity, helping out-of-school children, I think, they don't need such help. What they need is the progress of the whole society and the progress of the entire class, I suddenly admire the volunteers who went to the countryside (including the foreigners who came to my country far away to help those villagers). They brought the things they needed most, but I couldn't do it, in fact, I don't want to do it at all. I am a villain, a theoretical patriot. I learned the world, and learned to float. It is suitable for parasites in warm environments.
