One day, when I was wandering in the street, I saw a billboard in front of a restaurant that said, "Wash dishes, choose vegetables and make cakes by the hour." When I was a soldier, I worked in a cookhouse squad. I am good at making steamed stuffed buns and jiaozi, so I walked into a restaurant and told my boss that I wanted to apply for a job as a pastry chef. Pastry is a skilled job, with a monthly salary of 1600 yuan. In terms of time, the pressure is not great. 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, not tired from work. It's just right for me and convenient. I also give my boss some reasonable suggestions to improve the quality of food. My steamed stuffed bun tastes different from jiaozi's, and it is very popular with the guests. The number of customers has obviously increased, and it has been praised by the boss. Soon, my monthly salary rose to 2600 yuan.
I think doing part-time jobs is very suitable for the elderly. How much money you earn is secondary. The important thing is to pass the time, exercise muscles, enrich life, exert the residual heat and earn some pocket money. Why not?
Wang Yuchun: I work as a security guard in the community.
I'm still in good health after retirement, so I just want to find something to do. My home is next to the residential property. Once I met the property manager, I told him, "I want to be a security guard at the gate of the community." He saw that I was strong and accepted it gladly. The security work in the community is not too tense. Usually, you only need to be responsible for the registration and guidance of people entering and leaving, or stand or sit, and be free. During work, you can also communicate with different people to pass your leisure time. Close to home, you can go home for three meals a day. Eating delicious food cooked by my wife and living a leisure life.
I am a native of party member. During the epidemic, I took the initiative to undertake tasks such as temperature measurement and inspection, and guided the masses not to travel unless necessary. When traveling, I must do personal protection. Various notices were also posted in prominent positions in the community to vigorously publicize the epidemic prevention and control policies and measures, eliminate residents' panic, remind everyone to identify bad information, do not believe rumors, do not spread rumors, and respond to the epidemic in a scientific and orderly manner.
Being a security guard in the community for five years has not only increased my income, but also enriched my retirement life, so that I can continue to maintain a good state. I feel happy and happy. Don't feel that you can only stay at home all day just because you are retired. You can start a new life at any time if you want. Age will never bind you, you can become better after retirement.
Yang: Choose a familiar and passionate job.
1998, I have two choices after retirement. One is to stay in the original government agencies to help; The second is to go to a private medical unit, and the treatment is equivalent to 10 times of the former. After careful consideration, I chose to help in the original unit on the grounds that I am familiar with people and work, and I am more handy in doing it, which is in line with my hobbies.
I worked as a secretary until I retired, and I was also a correspondent and resident reporter of several newspapers. After my re-employment, the work assigned to me by the unit is generally three: one is to help modify the written materials drafted by others; Two, responsible for the preparation and distribution of "hebei journal of traditional chinese medicine newsletter" manuscript, once a month, each period of 6000 words; Thirdly, he is also a reporter of China Traditional Chinese Medicine News, providing news articles. I am familiar with all these jobs, so I have done them well, and my leaders and colleagues are very satisfied. Especially in news reporting, I can overfulfil the tasks assigned to me by the newspaper every year. He has been rated as an outstanding resident reporter in China for seven consecutive years, and three articles have won awards in the national traditional Chinese medicine news appraisal. I didn't quit the above job until 20 1 1. In the 13 years when I was rehired, although I didn't make much money, I was very happy because I lived a full life.
After retirement, it is a good thing to play the residual heat and continue to do something for the society. But the specific work will vary from person to person, according to their physical conditions, hobbies and professional expertise.
Ma Xiaoyu: Raw is not as good as cooked.
As a medical worker, I am still engaged in medical-related occupations after retirement. I worked as a salesman in a pharmacy, worked in a Chinese medicine hospital and worked as a health consultant. Now I open a clinic in the village. As the saying goes, raw is not as good as cooked. I have been a doctor all my life and accumulated rich practical experience. It's easy to get started in this profession. I also had the opportunity and idea of changing careers. A friend once asked me to invest in a lifestyle supermarket. I thought about it again and again, and I felt that I had no bottom, so I refused. I also applied for the job of magazine editor, but I found that it is far from enough to rely solely on writing skills. I also need a lot of relevant professional knowledge and need to learn from scratch. I have to give up because the gap is too big.
After retirement, you should first choose your familiar field, so that you can quickly enter the working state in your new post and avoid the difficulty of starting from scratch. After all, time waits for no one. When people get old, their energy and physical strength will be discounted. It is not easy to master a brand-new industry.
The re-employment of the elderly has certain benefits, but it does not mean that every elderly person is suitable for re-employment. We should make a choice according to our actual situation.
