Honesty is supposed to be a virtue of life. But when used incorrectly, it can cause irreparable regrets. Of course, some things are God's will, and they should not be yours, so they cannot be forced.
In the early 1980s, I got an opportunity that could completely change my life. However, I not only consciously gave up this opportunity, but also obediently led others to complete the path they should go. (Damn it, I still hate myself when I think about it: Why are you so stupid?)
Leadership agencies need to recruit several so-called "cultivation" objects, because I was a little famous in the county town at that time in painting and calligraphy, so I was recommended to be shortlisted. I called and asked me to fill out a form at the Organization Department and then take a symbolic exam. Even if I am done, I can wait for the notification to go to work.
I went to fill out the form as promised.
However, after I read the instructions on the form, I hesitated a little. In addition to the age requirements for the participants taking the exam, the
description also clearly requires that they must graduate from high school. Not only did I not graduate from high school, I didn’t even graduate from elementary school; as for the junior high school I usually scattered, I was afraid that others would laugh at me for not going to school, and I forced myself to add it to myself. But I can’t talk nonsense at this time, I am in the Organization Department! Telling lies here, am I cheating on the organization? Although I am not in the organization, I am in awe of the word "organization".
The pen in my hand did not fall, but asked the staff very seriously: "Didn't it be that I graduated from high school but failed?"
The staff seemed to be very surprised by my Xiang asked. She looked at her colleague in the room and said helplessly: "It's the case as required, but..."
Before she could finish her words, I consciously and seriously showed my "honestness": "I am not graduated from high school and I am unqualified!" After that, I pushed the form and left.
Walking on the street, I am still proud of my "honestness": People, you must never lie to the organization! I didn't realize that this time the honesty made me lose a chance to change my life.
was walking when I suddenly heard someone calling me. After a stop, I saw that I was a friend who worked as a temporary worker in a collectively owned factory in the county town. Because of his common hobbies, he often played together. At this moment, he saw me coming out of the government compound alone and thinking about it, so he called me.
At this moment, my eyes suddenly lit up: "Didn't you graduate from high school?"
"Yes! What's wrong?"
"Go! Come with me!" I pulled my unknown friend back to the agency, pushed him to the form I had not filled in, and extended his pen to him.
For some reason, no one stopped us from doing everything. We watched our friend fill out the form, but I took him away to drink. I believe everyone can imagine what happened after
, so I won’t go into details.
Several years later, I should have made an appointment to go to a place for an interview and happened to meet an old friend of that year. And he is already a leader here.
The interview ended. At the routine banquet, I joked with my old friend who was already the leader: "Budd, if it weren't for me back then..."
"Go and bluff, don't do anything back then..." Seeing that no one paid attention, he crawled into my ear and said, "You are just too honest. You just say you are... What do you ask someone to say? I heard that the post is specially given to you. When you left, I took me away. My employer and I were just going to do it..."
I go...
