Chapter 449 – Chapter 449. Way to the Park
After the meal, I went out with Seohyun Choi.
“Rewrite this. It’s kf94.”
“Ah, thank you, brother.”
I took out a new mask from the mask box and handed it to Choi Seo-hyun, who was ready to go out.
When eating, she wore a bra and panties, but when she went out, of course, she wore all of her clothes.
As she received the mask from me, she said while looking at the box.
“Wow, why are there so many masks at your brother’s house?”
It’s a mask I got from Song Ji-eun.
She received it in a box and gave it to her parents, but in addition to the mask she gave me, I bought a mask outside and put it away, so the mask in the box did not shrink very well.
“I got a lot of presents.”
I spoke while wearing a mask.
Choi Seo-hyun also received my words while wearing a mask.
“Ho-ho-ho! So many masks? Wasn’t it a gift from a big fan?”
“Ah, I know you before the broadcast.”
“Let’s go! Brother.”
“Um. Yes. Check to make sure you haven’t left anything behind.”
After checking for a while, confirming that there was nothing left to leave, we left the studio we had been immersed in the night before.
– Clap
Although Choi Seo-hyun took half a day, the time wasn’t all that long, and I also had to broadcast, so I didn’t have that much time.
But just having time to go for a walk like this, I thought I was grateful.
Originally, it is almost impossible to do this.
Generally, there are many acquaintances who wake up between 6 and 7 in the morning and go to work during rush hour, and when they go to work, they usually return from 8 to 6 in the evening, or at night if they work overtime.
Then, if you add up the preparation time and the commuting time, you end up spending more than 13 hours a day on company work.
I’ve seen a lot of people work 6 days a week like this.
Even if you don’t work overtime and go to work in the morning and end at 6:00, that’s 13 X 6 = 78 hours.
That’s 78 hours per week.
Of course, from the company’s point of view, commuting time is not counted, starting from 8:00 am and ending at 6:00 pm is 10 hours, but 9 hours without lunch break, and excluding weekends, 9 X 5 = 45 hours. We will publicize it as a beautiful workplace that achieves success.
If you listen to your friends and hyungs, they say that you don’t have time at all because you get hit every day.
Among the people who work for that company, there must be some real people who have a work-life balance.
About the owner’s family.
I was an economics student when I was in college, and I can see numerically how astronomical reserves are piling up in the company.
It’s really unbelievably a lot of money piled up.
It is not uncommon to transact an office building worth more than 300 billion won or build an extension by spending tens of billions of won.
Still, there is plenty of money left over.
Even if they want to hoard all that money, they don’t want to spend it on employees or shareholders.
I think that’s why commoners can only live as commoners all the time.
They devote all their time to being loyal to their master, but the master has no intention of making them live well.
Somehow, at the lowest cost, they try to make the company larger by spending labor costs on their employees, and if there is still money left, hundreds of billions to trillions of money are just piled up.
It is expected that this government will also roll out such things.
Since I don’t know stocks well, I’m not sure how clearly the concept is, but it is said that our country has very small dividends compared to other countries.
So, if companies do not give such insignificant dividends to their shareholders and try to do it alone, they will make a punitive clause against it and entice them to pay dividends above a certain level.
I also think that is correct.
Hmm… That is, of course, there are good capitalists who take good care of workers and shareholders if they benefit from it, but there are many places that do not.
Some selfish capitalists who are not such good capitalists have a strange mindset that my money is my money and your money is also my money.
First of all, when I give my employees a monthly salary, I think it’s my company that I built with my own money, so I think you can get paid as much as a snot, and somehow I try to get the maximum effect with the minimum labor cost.
But when you don’t pay dividends to shareholders, you invest with your own money and have a stake in my company, but since this is my company, you think you don’t have to receive dividends, and you think that shareholders should take care of themselves and see market profits.
This ambivalent mindset doesn’t make much sense to me.
Does the more money you have, the more greed you have?
I’ve never had that kind of money, so I don’t know.
But now, I still pay more money than the market price to the guest who helped me with my broadcast or to the editor who makes some of my videos besides my own.
And in the relationship with the people I met through work, I try to treat them politely, leaving the relationship with the boss.
I think power without respect, and the mindset of trying to take one’s own food, such things should be expelled from this society.
With that thought in mind, I left the studio with Seohyun Choi.
“Wow, is it raining?”
“Okay. It’s over now.”
“I thought there was a typhoon coming.”
Choi Seo-hyun was walking with me and searching for typhoons on her cell phone, and while I was walking I watched her search for her Taepum for a while.
Choi Seo-hyun, who was watching the typhoon story, spoke to me a little later.
“Oh, oppa, the typhoon just passed by the sea.”
Although they were talking while wearing masks and walking, it was possible to communicate sufficiently because they were talking next to each other.
“Okay?”
“This is the typhoon~, the damage is great when it passes through the land while maintaining the structure of the eye that becomes black in the middle, but this typhoon goes up to the sea like this and this way, so it is said that there is not as much damage as expected.”
“That’s right, I just got a disaster text message and that’s it, I’m glad.”
While looking at the photo of the typhoon on his cell phone, Choi Seo-hyun has been talking about this and that.
As a result, it was originally said that the typhoon almost caused very strong damage, but it fell into the sea without compensation, so there was little damage to Korea.
After the typhoon story, we walked down the street talking about various things.
I walked past the three-way crosswalk on the side of the main road coming out of the one-room village and the main road coming out of the one-room village.
“There are still a lot of people.”
“Therefore.”
“Still, it was a bit quiet after here.”
Seohyun Choi is right.
Based on this three-way intersection, the number of people decreases as you walk in the opposite direction.
There are a lot of people in Gosichon on both sides of the main road or inside the alley, but the farther away from that side, the fewer people.
Although there are more super-large or small and medium-sized gosiwons on the outskirts, the inner side of the place that can be called a gosichon is still crowded with far more people.
“That’s right. It’s been like that since the old days.”
“It’s fortunate. I didn’t get a good look like this, but the wind blows a little bit, so it’s a little cool, isn’t it?”
“Hmm.”
The day was cool and nice.
When this typhoon passes, the scorching heat will come again, but it seemed that it would be okay if the weather was this cool.
After crossing the crosswalk, Choi Seo-hyun started talking to me.
“Brother.”
“Hmm?”
“I also buy monthly rent, but aren’t the electricity bills high these days?”
“Oh. That’s right. Is that so? It seems like something has come out more than before.”
I don’t really care, so I don’t know.
In the case of this summer, since I have been in a position to earn billions of units every few months, it can be seen that relatively small amounts of money out of my current spending, such as electricity bills, were just thrown away without even checking the price.
“If you go into the progressive section, they say that the progressive tax is very good.”
“Okay?”
Come to think of it, I also think about before touching such a large amount of money.
At that time, I worked really hard.
It was a time when I worked so hard when I was working with Choi Seo-hyun.
What I think now is that at that time, of course, it was worthwhile.
But I don’t think I want to go back.
Now that I think that the effort and the reward are not proportional, I don’t want to go back to the time when I had a lot of effort and little income.
But there are benefits nonetheless.
There are also aspects where I feel that my curiosity, or something like that, has been satisfied to some extent by experiencing the world that I could not have experienced in the first place while working.
While talking about these things, I arrived at the park with Choi Seo-hyun.
There were few people, and it was perfect for a healing walk.
Maybe there is something like that because of the corona situation, but even if it’s not that, I think a little quiet atmosphere is better for a walk.
“Um~, we’ve all arrived. There are definitely not many people in the park since we come in the morning.”
“Isn’t it Corona?”
“Ah, I come here once in a while, but there are still quite a few people except for the morning. People who would normally be at home feel like they are forcibly locked up because of the corona, so maybe more come out on purpose?”
“Ho-ho-ho! It could be.”
Psychologically, it may be true.
Originally, I was just staying at home, but with the arrival of the corona, I feel like I’m stuck at home for some reason, so there may be people who come out to exercise out of frustration.
“I like it better because there are no people.”
Seohyun Choi smiled and said, so I nodded too.
“Um. Me too.”
“I liked people in the old days, but these days I tend to avoid places with a lot of people.”
“Really? It’s a department store where I work now. But is that so?”
“So maybe that’s it.”
She said her
“I don’t know if it’s because I work in a service job, but when I meet the truth every once in a while, I think I just avoid people more and more. I can’t help it when I’m working.”
“Hmm.”
I told her
“Other things will be the same.”
Other things will be the same.
If you look at the acquaintances around you, they often say that their work is the most difficult, as if they are having a battle to see who is more difficult.
But I think it’s hard because it’s really hard.
And I think it’s more likely to be due to other separate factors such as human stress or not getting paid properly than the difficulty of the job itself.
As we walked, Choi Seohyun agreed to my words that other things would be the same.
“Isn’t that right? Not only what I do, but I think other things have their own characteristics… Ah~, I really don’t want to work.”
Haha, ah, it seems like everyone you meet hears that?”
“Ho-ho-ho! Is that so?”
It seems like everyone really wants to quit their job.
Even so, people say that they have to work hard and live.
Ironic
It’s a bit like military logic and a bit like irony.
He says he shouldn’t go to the army because it will greatly damage his life, but he says strangely that men have to go to the army.
Even though he says that he must get rid of his company work and show creativity to make money, he says strangely that he has to work hard.
In this case, it would be a bit ambiguous about which beat to dance to.
“In a company, like some conscientious companies, if it is a company that gives fair compensation to its employees, high-ranking people do not abuse power, and employees respect each other, then… I would rather not be at home and live in a tent on the roof of the company. I’d like to.”
“That’s right.”
“There’s a lot of competition there, though.”
After arriving at the park, I said to Choi Seo-hyun, pointing to the perimeter of the park.
“Do you want to go around like this?”
“Yes!”
