Chapter 7
Grandma Jenny just sold the energy box she picked up last night to a second-hand store. After she got the credit point, she went to the small shop opened by the Smith family next door and bought some synthetic apples. She planned to make some apple pie and send it to her scavenging companions last night. Grandma Jenny is a very wise old man. She is so old that her physical quality can't insist on scavenging for a long time, Usually can get harvest, but also safe and retreat, all rely on the care of the partners who pick up waste together. Therefore, grandma Jenny is very grateful.
Although all the scavenging partners rejected her last night, grandma Jenny won't forget about it. She plans to send it directly to her friends after she finishes the apple pie.
Ji grapefruit didn't know grandma Jenny's thoughts. She suddenly caught a glimpse of a big, red apple in the basket in grandma Jenny's hand, and a trace of saliva came out of her mouth.
This is an apple!
Jiyou hasn't eaten an apple since it crossed!
Although this is a synthetic apple with the appearance of an apple, it is actually synthesized by various nutrients. The taste is a little hard to say, but this is also a fruit!
Take a bite, full of fruit!
Xu is aware of Ji Grapefruit's dim vision. Grandma Jenny smiled, picked a red apple from the basket, stuffed it to Ji grapefruit and said, "take it to eat."
"No, no, no..." Ji pomelo quickly refused.
Although the apple is synthetic, it is also very expensive for Ji grapefruit. It looks like the one in grandma Jenny's hand. Ji grapefruit is estimated to have at least 5 credit points.
Five credit points. Ji pomelo has to work hard for almost three hours to afford one!
How can she accept it so expensive?
Besides, there are only three apples in grandma Jenny's basket. Would it be decent for her to take one?
Ji grapefruit is about the same age as grandma Jenny's granddaughter Leah, and even one year younger than Leah. The child's parents died early and there are no relatives to take care of her. It's not easy to feed herself alone for so many years. Thinking of this, grandma Jenny couldn't help feeling pity and said with a smile: "take it! I make apple pie. These two are enough."
In any case, Ji grapefruit couldn't close it. From the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse that the floating bus had come. She put the apple in grandma Jenny's basket and ran up the bus.
Grandma Jenny looked at her running figure and felt helpless and funny.
After getting on the bus, Ji grapefruit swallowed her uncontrollable saliva and told herself not to be a pity. As long as she can succeed in the interview, she will reward herself with a synthetic apple, no! How can one be enough?
Buy two!
It's such a happy decision.
The suspension bus passes through stations quickly, and the stay time at each station will not exceed 2 minutes. Ji pomelo's interview time is set at 2:30 p.m. according to the speed of the suspension bus, she can arrive at the interview place before 2 o'clock.
Every time she takes the suspension bus, Ji grapefruit will sigh from her heart about the scientific and technological level of the interstellar era. As for the distance between zone 10 and zone 6, taking the earth as a reference, Ji pomelo estimated that the distance between the two may be as far from the north of the earth to the south. However, the suspension bus can arrive in less than an hour.
Sitting on the suspended bus, it is flat and stable. You can't feel a trace of fluctuation at all. The experience feeling can be said to be very good.
I don't know, airships, spaceships, star ships... How do you feel when you sit up? Ji grapefruit has a little expectation in her heart. She secretly tells herself to work hard and make money, and strive for a star trek in the future!
With some expectation and some anxiety, Ji grapefruit finally arrived at the interview place of the mall. When she arrived, she found that nearly 500 people had gathered in the underground Hall of the mall, all of them interviewers. However, the total number of people recruited for different positions of different sizes in the mall was less than 50.
Seeing this, Ji pomelo's heart sank: no doubt, the probability of being selected is less than one percent.
Although it is already the interstellar era, the form of recruitment still follows the ancient tradition. Fill in the form, that is, your resume, and then receive the number plate. Enter the site one by one according to the number plate.
Ji grapefruit received the number plate of 366. It took her turn to take some time. She sat in the interview hall and practiced in her heart the questions that the interviewer might ask later.
For example:
Introduce yourself?
What do you know about our mall?
Why do you want to work in the mall?
....
Like this, Ji pomelo simulated it all, and then figured out how to answer it.
Sink into the thinking, unconsciously, I heard the robot number, and it was already the turn of Ji pomelo on the 366. Ji grapefruit stood up quickly, sorted out her clothes and makeup a little, and hurried to knock on the door.
Ji grapefruit imagined many questions, prepared many answers for herself and prepared for the worst. However, as soon as she stepped into the interview room and saw the three interviewers sitting on the chairs before she was nervous, she listened to a middle-aged man across the street ask, "what's your mental level?"
Ji grapefruit was surprised and said calmly, "Hello, I'm interviewing for the position of warehouse keeper -" I heard that this position doesn't pay much attention to spiritual power and physique. That's why she plans to come to have a try.
The man said impatiently, "tell me your mental strength."
Ji grapefruit knew it would be worse, but it couldn't be fake. She honestly replied, "grade F. but I work hard -"
The other party interrupted her and continued to ask, "what is the level of physique?"
Ji pomelo smiled bitterly at the corner of her mouth and said, "grade E. I have great strength..."
However——
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three people opposite were not very good-looking. The middle-aged man who asked questions maintained basic etiquette and said, "sorry, Miss Ji, you don't meet the requirements of our mall. Please leave."
Ji grapefruit tightly pursed her lips and tried to control her from showing a sad expression.
Obviously——
She made another miscalculation. Her numerous interview failures have told Ji you that in the interstellar era, even a sweeper has requirements for physical and mental strength. With such a waste material constitution, no company will admit her.
Ji grapefruit was very lost, but she tried to bear it. She pretended to be strong and pitiful. When one of the female interviewers saw it, she couldn't bear it, so she advised: "Although our store only recruits ordinary clerks, both physical and mental strength need to reach grade D. according to miss Ji's situation, she is not competent for this job. I suggest Miss Ji go to Xingwang to find a job that does not require high physical and mental strength, such as Xingwang coolie, which is a very good choice."
