Chapter 575: I’ll See Who’s Playing Honor of Kings! (4,000 words, two-in-one)
At a toilet manufacturing company in Yuhang, Chen Sheng was on duty. There was nothing more miserable than working during a holiday. In his old dormitory group chat, all his roommates had gone traveling, but he was stuck at the company, grinding away. Although he received triple pay, Chen Sheng would have much rather been at home playing games than earning those few extra hundred yuan a day. Thinking about this only soured his mood further.
As a college graduate who had entered the workforce just a year ago, Chen Sheng didn't have high salary expectations, but he did hope to get off work on time. However, the overtime culture at this company was brutal. It was 996 every single day. Chen Sheng couldn't wrap his head around it; they weren't an internet company. They were a company that made and sold toilets. Why was the overtime so severe? Would staying late help them sell more toilets? Even if they did sell more, he never saw any significant increase in his bonus. Thinking about his daily 996 life, Chen Sheng constantly thought about just quitting. It wasn't just him; the other employees and even his team leader felt the same way. To put it in a nutshell, the boss was "mentally warped."
