Woman Forty Is Still Unwilling To Fool Around.

"I am past my 40 birthday.

All say "forty no doubts", but for the first time, I was worried about my age - the 40 year old working woman, looking ahead and looking at it, it's really embarrassing.

She has always been a professional woman.

After graduating from technical school, I stepped into the society and worked in a big company.

20 years later, the innocent young girl has grown up to be the "old man" in the workplace.

Most of my age group are more traditional and single-minded.

When I was in love, I was intent on finding a male mechanic in the same factory. I also pushed off several good dates.

For many years, my husband and I never jumped over the slot, and often discussed work at the table.

Now he has been a senior mechanic, and I have been making progress in the past 20 years. I never want to do anything easy because I am a woman.

On the contrary, I have a kind of struggle in my bones, like to meet challenges and be willing to learn new knowledge.

For example, because of business needs, the factory wants to have a part-time photographer.

A leader knew I had a lot of amateur love and asked me if I could take pictures.

To be honest, I've only played silly cameras and never touched professional equipment, but when the leader trusted me, I accepted the new task with great care.

Originally wanted to teach a good teacher, who expected two weeks, the factory will receive a group of important foreign guests.

I had to work on the "fire line", with a long lens and a short lens, and clicking the shutter in the reception team.

I was very nervous. I must know that this was a reception for foreign affairs. I couldn't get the foreign guests back and make it again.

Fortunately, my photo "debut" is still very impressive. Since then, the leader has handed the work to me.

40 years old, suffering from workplace crisis

At the beginning of this year, just after my 40 birthday, I encountered the biggest problem.

However, when I grew up from a "beginner" to a skilled backbone, the Department is facing adjustment, and several people, including myself, need to be pferred.

I really want to do it in my old post. On the one hand, I feel that this post needs a strong professional foundation, and I am confident that I can be competent; on the other hand, because an old comrade in the Department is going to retire at the end of this year, I think I can just miss this.

So I went to the leader to fight for it, but it disappointed me.

Personnel department said, because I have no corresponding preparation, so can not stay in this post, then they will adjust a new generation of the corresponding, even if the other party has no professional experience is nothing.

I think this rule is not reasonable. Is it important to compile or is business capability more important?

In August, I had to leave my former post and pferred to a post with no technical content. The mood was just like the present weather in Shanghai, always "cloudy and rainy."

My husband loves me and asks me not to take it too seriously, saying that he can afford me.

Friends have comforted me: "the factory is not you alone, why do you want to die"? You are 40 years old, and you can work for ten years.

Since your husband is competent, you might as well be happy to be mixed up at work, go home to do more housework, and care more about children's education.

Looking forward to the future and longing for space

In fact, it is this kind of "mixed up" saying that hurts me and makes me feel uneasy.

The reason why I am not reconciled is precisely because I am 40 years old.

If I just worked and changed jobs, I would take it easy.

Because I have enough time to learn new skills.

If I were forty eight or nine years old this year, I would retire soon. Maybe I am really willing to muddled along.

But the reality is, I only stood at the threshold of 40 years old. I still have ten years to retire! It's ten years instead of ten days!

I have certain knowledge reserves and mastered certain skills, and I can make further contributions in suitable positions. If I spend one day in a day, I will be irresponsible to myself and a waste of human resources.

My job is now up to date. My complaint is not to argue for a specific post, but to feel that there are many 40 year old women like me who love their jobs and love their factories. I hope this society, especially some managers, can respect their dedication and persistence in the workplace and give them room.
