January 19, 1999? Tuesday

The superior business agency called and the personnel for re-inspection of compliance with standards will come to the factory tomorrow afternoon, which is earlier than the original schedule. Within two days, the whole factory became a mess and started cleaning. It is also stipulated that if the cleaning is not completed, you cannot go home, and therefore the departure time of the shuttle bus is postponed. The first bus was postponed to 10 pm, and I had to go to work an hour earlier the next morning, so I had to take the bus at 6 o'clock.

When I went to the toilet in the afternoon, I happened to meet the secretary, so I squatted in the toilet and talked for a while. When talking about the development of the company, the secretary was full of emotions, talking about the joint venture, the purchase and sale of state-owned warehouses, and the installation of Unit 4. They all follow the orders of their superiors. At that time, the No. 4 machine was installed, and during a meeting in June, the deputy mayor requested that construction begin in August. At that time, there was resistance in the factory, so the deputy mayor reprimanded: "If you can't complete the task, write a resignation report." As a result, Unit 4 was launched in a hurry. Later, the higher-level electric power department restricted the development of small thermal power, but at this time, the No. 4 unit was already in trouble.

In addition, regarding the sale of a state-owned warehouse merged by the company, the factory director also talked about it before. In order not to sell the warehouse, the secretary and the factory director went to the higher-level prefecture-level city to sell the warehouse. I went to the then Municipal Party Committee Secretary, but he refused to meet me. I reluctantly met, reading the newspaper and listening to the report, absent-mindedly. After the report, he said coldly: "It's over?"

"It's over."

"It's over, go back!"

In the end, it was still against the will of the company. The warehouse was sold to a self-employed individual for a low price of several million. The final result was that it was idle for several years. Later, the bank could not collect the loan, and the self-employed person paid off the bank loan at a much higher price than the original purchase price.

Who did you trick by going around? State-owned enterprises have been cheated, and the national bank has been cheated.

Yesterday I heard from Qiu that the phone bill this month was as high as 107 yuan, which made the already tight "family economy" even worse.

I paid my phone bill today and found out of thin air that I had more than 60 yuan in Internet phone charges. The so-called "Internet call charges" refer to the cost of calls from this city to other counties and cities and mobile phone calls. Our family has never done this business. Even if we do it occasionally, it will never reach more than 60 yuan. There may be two reasons: one is that someone made a fraudulent call, and the other is that the post office made a billing error.

Call at night and ask someone from the post office to take a look at the line and phone number.

January 22, 1999? Friday

In the morning, someone from the post office called me in the office to ask what was wrong with the phone.

When I mentioned that I wanted to change the line from the junction box to my house and no longer go to other people’s bungalows, the other party was quite dissatisfied and asked me when to prepare the line. When will I notify him again?

If there is a problem with the line, why do you need to prepare the line personally?

On duty in the factory today. Because Qiu had to go to work and there was no one to take care of the children, Yang Lin got up at 6:30 in the morning, and then took the shuttle bus to the factory with me. Apart from writing a report, there is nothing else to do, and the children are very well behaved. But today the two of us ate five packs of instant noodles, three eggs, one pack of vacuum-packed beef, one piece of chocolate, one pack of biscuits, one pack of peanuts, and some boiled water.
