Chapter 214 Song Lala's Job Hunting Diary 4
Song Xianyin had two interviews in one day.
She thought she was already quite busy, but when she opened her social media app, she found that many people were meeting up with five people a day.
Do these people really have that much energy...?
The subway in City A seems to have very few empty seats. Even though it's not rush hour, it's always full, but thankfully it's not too crowded.
Song Xianyin held onto the pole, feeling nauseous again.
She frowned and squatted down in the corner.
The patrolman kept walking back and forth, and Song Xianyin stared at the green vest with some emotion.
As expected of City A, there are still so many people patrolling the subway.
Song Xianyin suddenly remembered a news story she had seen online some time ago: a man carrying a knife was randomly slashing people on the subway in City A.
I wonder if it's because of this...
Feeling much better after squatting down, Song Xianyin leaned against the wall, and her complexion gradually calmed down.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt like someone not far away was staring at her, and their gaze seemed a little strange.
But they looked more like tourists.
"That guy looks like he's from out of town, he has no manners at all," a woman said.
"Exactly, don't they know you can't squat on the subway?"
The man next to him cleared his throat: "Since these outsiders came, the public order in City A has been in chaos."
"Why come here to work every day? It's so crowded, we locals feel like outsiders." The man rolled his eyes.
Every time I encounter such ill-mannered behavior, it's always done by outsiders.
One of them secretly took a picture of Song Xianyin and posted it online.
[I'm genuinely wondering, why do people from other places like to squat on the subway?]
Song Xianyin was completely unaware of what was happening here.
She was afraid she would miss her stop, so she kept staring at the map on her phone.
Today's interviews left Song Xianyin exhausted.
Besides the subway, the questions asked by the interviewers were also difficult for her to answer.
They felt she was asking for too much, and she felt they were offering too little.
In a city like City A with such a high cost of living, isn't 4k5 looking down on City A's level of development?
After finally getting off the subway, Song Xianyin saw pineapples by the roadside and suddenly felt a bit hungry.
She used to be indifferent to these things, but after a day of suffering, everything smelled delicious to her.
"Boss, I'd like a piece of pineapple." Song Xianyin walked up to the vendor.
The shopkeeper's eyes crinkled into a smile: "Ten yuan."
Song Xianyin's hand trembled slightly as she held the pineapple. She looked at the shopkeeper in disbelief: "I'll just take one piece."
This piece looks to be only one-eighth the size.
The shop owner nodded confidently: "That's right, a piece of pineapple costs ten yuan."
Song Xianyin endured it!
So what if it's ten yuan? She's so tired today, she deserves to eat ten yuan's worth of pineapple.
Before even reaching the hostel, she couldn't resist taking a few bites.
No wonder it's a ten-yuan pineapple; it tastes exactly the same as the one-yuan pineapples from her hometown.
Outside the hostel, people kept leaving with suitcases, and people kept coming in with suitcases.
As soon as Song Xianyin stepped out of the elevator, the boys in the hostel next door started fighting again.
She took a bite of the pineapple and watched the show unfold.
Where there are many men, there is bound to be trouble.
"Hey guys, you can talk this out, why do you have to fight?" The man in the suit blocked their way.
The man looked extremely troubled.
He only earns this little bit a month, and he has to mediate fights every day. This kind of work is inhuman.
"What makes you so great? If you were so great, why would you be staying in a hostel?" the boy with dyed yellow hair said breathlessly.
He was now bruised and swollen, and his clothes were all wrinkled.
The boy opposite calmly asked, "Are you sure you want to let this kind of person continue living here?"
"They're still keeping the lights on at three or four in the morning, either talking on the phone with their girlfriends or playing games. Don't other people get any sleep?"
The butler, seeing that he was reasonable, tried to get to him.
"We must talk to this student properly and make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen again."
The housekeeper said with a pained expression, "Besides, even if something like this happens, you can't just throw other people's things away."
The blond-haired man, smoking a cigarette, cursed, "Where did this pretty boy come from, pretending to be an old student? You think I won't beat you to death?"
The housekeeper quickly advised, "Sir, you can't smoke outside. The property management will come to talk to you later."
The blond-haired man sighed, "What do you suggest we do? I've been a regular customer of yours for a long time, and this is how you treat me?"
The butler was extremely annoyed; he really wanted to get rid of this blond-haired guy.
Although he's a regular customer, he's definitely a troublemaker; who would want someone like that?
Song Xianyin walked into her hostel.
Wow, that's impressive, they started fighting right away.
As soon as Song Xianyin entered the door, she held her breath, then quickly took off her shoes, changed them, and ran into the living room.
But the stench of her feet clung to her like a ghost, lingering around her nose.
What an amazing hostel! If she studied chemistry, she might be able to extract some substance from it and become the world's greatest chemist.
After finishing the pineapple, Song Xianyin went back to her bedroom.
A girl wearing only her underwear is sitting on a stool putting on makeup.
Hearing the sound, she glanced at Song Xianyin, then continued with her own business.
The snoring in the room continued, and Song Xianyin especially envied people with such good sleep quality.
She's already finished two interviews and is back, and her roommate is still sleeping soundly.
As soon as Song Xianyin got into bed, she saw the girl, who had just finished putting on makeup, casually throw the used tissues on the floor.
What about her?
“There are trash cans outside,” Song Xianyin couldn’t help but say.
If this were her home, it would be one thing, but this is a hostel, okay? Song Xianyin is going to stay here too.
She doesn't want to live in a garbage dump!
The girl glanced at her and said, "A cleaning lady will come tomorrow."
Country bumpkin.
Song Xianyin was speechless.
While she was revising her thesis in bed at night, she suddenly saw something dark crawling around out of the corner of her eye.
Song Xianyin frowned. Could it be that?
She looked at the wall and sure enough, she saw a cockroach crawling rapidly.
Song Xianyin: ...
If the cleaning lady comes to sweep the floor every day, why are there still cockroaches here?
She pulled out a few sheets of paper and crushed the cockroach to death.
Song Xianyin's expression turned serious. She couldn't stay here any longer; she had to find another hostel.
The sanitation conditions here are extremely worrying.
However, there is a reception desk and security guard downstairs, and you need to swipe a card to get on the elevator. Also, the hostel's toilets are indeed quite nice.
Most importantly, it only costs 55 yuan a night, and there are no other hostels in City A that offer such good value for money.
This cockroach is light brown and somewhat transparent; it's clearly not very big yet.
Song Xianyin frowned and lifted a corner of the curtain. Next to the bed of the girl who had just finished putting on makeup, there were many express delivery bags and boxes piled up.
It must be her.
She's only been here for a day; surely this cockroach couldn't have flown all the way from her hometown to City A with her?
