11 Years Of Struggle For Top Domestic Workers

Horsetail, short, dark skin, rough hands and uniforms are too common to be ordinary.

Liu Wenqing, 43, said he was the standard Beijing.

Recently, the home economics company in Huayuan Road, Haidian District began to post rating wage test. Liu Wenqing's sincere friendship Home Economics Company is one of them.

But for her, such a rating Division has already begun since it came to Beijing 11 years ago.

From the initial monthly income of 600 yuan to the current 5100 yuan, with more and more work experience, Liu Wenqing, who had only been able to find hours worked in the streets, has now realized the "three jump" of salary and has become a high-income person in the eyes of his colleagues.

"I don't plan to go back to my hometown this year. I want to review the stars in the year and get the highest.

First arrival in Beijing

In January 1999, Liu Wenqing, 32, worked in Beijing from his hometown in Harbin.

Earning 600 yuan a month became a "moonlight clan".

When she first came to Beijing, she was not familiar with her life. Liu Wenqing could only introduce some odd jobs by the townsman who arrived earlier than her.

Unloading, handling, watching booth...

In just one month, she changed seven or eight jobs.

It is not that she does not want to work long hours. "These jobs are temporary, and they can only work for 35 days at most, and they will be finished if they get the money."

Liu Wenqing said, a month down, the income of 600 yuan.

At that time, Liu Wenqing and 5 townships shared a cottage in Fengtai, with a monthly rent of 100 yuan per person, counting other expenses. After a month, there was no balance. "Not only did they not earn money, instead they became" moonlight clan ".

"Although I didn't say how much money I had to earn in my house, I thought it would be difficult for me to go back to my hometown to see if I had worked so hard in Beijing."

Liu Wenqing did not start to retreat, instead, he tried harder to find job opportunities.

Take the streets and decide to start doing housework.

It was not long before a fellow townsman told her that she would see the Spring Festival. Many people would hire hourly workers to clean the house and work hours to earn a lot of money.

Liu Wenqing felt that he was very good at home work and could not be wrong in doing this.

She ran to the streets of Zhongguancun, holding the brand of "cleaning the home" and collecting "leak" everywhere.

It was February 1999, and Liu Wenqing still remembers that at that time, he worked at least 6 hours a day.

"One day I only slept for 7 hours, and I spent the rest of my time working from home to the house."

She said.

At that time, the wages of hourly workers was 6 yuan / hour. After a whole month's work, Liu Wenqing earned more than 1000 yuan.

"I don't like to talk much, I go to the employer's home to work hard, I can't relax and work hard enough. I feel quite right."

First hop

Housework dare not drink water.

By May 2000, Liu Wenqing earned 1800 yuan -2000 yuan a month by working as a hourly worker.

Two step jump

Enter the home economics company.

In 2005, Liu Wenqing, who had been "guerrilla", was introduced as an employee of a sincere friendship housekeeping company.

This company is not only small, but has four branches, and according to the work experience and level of employees, it can grade, distribute and earn wages.

Due to Liu Wenqing's rich experience and many employers' praise, the company's starting salary is more than 2000 yuan.

In addition to doing hourly work, the company arranged for her to work as a housekeeper.

After several years of fighting in Beijing, Liu Wenqing said, "employers and we all need mutual understanding and support."

In 2007, Liu Wenqing began working as a housekeeper for a retired high school principal in Chaoyang District.

The headmaster is 86 years old, suffering from hypertension and heart disease. Usually his children are busy. The nanny is responsible for a lot of things. Many nanny chose to leave after a month's work.

But Liu Wenqing is different. In addition to routine work such as washing and cooking, taking care of the elderly, she has learned basic medical knowledge, and the elderly have never had any accidents.

It was a year's work at the old headmaster's house.

At the end of that year, before the company selected outstanding staff, the old principal specially wrote a poem to praise her as a recommendation material, so that Liu Wenqing handed in to the company.

According to the company's regulations, the recommended materials should be written for more than 2000 words. The old man's poems do not meet the requirements, but Liu Wenqing did not tell the old man, "I can't judge the excellent employees, but I can't let the old man get tired."

It is also for this reason that in 2008, when the Spring Festival returned to her hometown, the old man would not even let her go.

Liu Wenqing had to find a colleague to help him, and he said to the old man, "if you don't feel right, after you go back to Beijing, you will continue to tell me to do it!"

Three step jump

During this time, she often went to work at her employer's home at 5 in the morning, and then went on to the next house after several hours.

Hard work is hard, but sometimes there are demanding employers.

In the summer of 2003, she worked at her employer's home for 6 hours, sweating heavily, picking up the water bottle he had carried with him, but finding that he had seen the bottom.

I wanted to ask my employer for a drink, but Liu Wenqing still held back. The employer was planning to rent out several rooms, and he was eager to clean up the house. It had been scheduled for Liu Wenqing for 4 hours, but the room was too busy for her to work alone.

The extension of time meant that the employer had to pay more money. Liu Wenqing felt that he was somewhat sorry for his employer and had to go home until evening.

On the second day and 5 o'clock, she struggled to get up in the ringing of the bell.

"I have talked to the other family, and I have to go. I don't want to lose the trust of others."

Liu Wenqing said.

Now, 5100 yuan in the month is still rushing to star.

Now, Liu Wenqing's monthly income is 5100 yuan.

She will divide into four sessions every day, 3 hours per session.

At weekends, she has to go to the gym and other public places to clean up.

"The company is willing to send her to work," she said. "It is because of her honesty and ability that she has won the trust of clients."

He manager introduced that every year, the company should conduct an assessment and a customer return visit to assess employees' abilities.

Now the industry is officially rating the housekeeping staff, from basic to star level, the basic wage level is rising steadily, and the employees of the company are very motivated.

In the eyes of colleagues, Liu Wenqing took 5100 yuan salary, it is reasonable.

As for Liu Wenqing, she has already had the goal of rating in her mind. "I want to continue my efforts to win the first rating of the star housekeeper for the company."

Now, the Liu Wenqing family are in Beijing, the husband drives, the son opens the salon.

Liu Wenqing said that this year will not have to go back to the old home, must be rated star in the year.
