Chapter 42 My Junior Brother
Perhaps Yue Hai did not fully understand Xu Cang's level of work. After helping the female colleague carry water, Xu Cang went straight back to the dispatch office. Not only he help clean the office, he also waited for several dispatchers to finish the breakfast he brought and then took away the garbage. After that, Xu Cang also took on the responsibility of helping with printing, serving tea and water to the dispatchers, and helping with the work of other departments.
Because the dispatch room was mostly full of men, whenever other departments needed physical work and were short of manpower, they would come to the dispatch room to find someone. As a result, all these annoying things were usually done by Xu Cang. Even during the morning voluntary labor, Xu Cang also played a guest role in the dispatch work several times.
Nearing noon, the company was busy with many crews operating overtime or at risk of operating overtime due to a large number of emergency landings last night. The dispatchers were so busy that they had no time to go to the cafeteria to eat until noon.
However, Xu Cang didn't even need to tell the dispatchers, and he paid for lunch for all the dispatchers on duty in the cafeteria. Xu Cang couldn't interfere with such matters of re-allocating the crew plans, so he got a rare peaceful time and found an empty seat in the dispatch room to sit and eat.
While Xu Cang was eating quietly, the dispatchers also put down their work temporarily and gathered together to eat. However, when the dispatchers were eating, their eyes would occasionally fall on Xu Cang who was in the corner in front.
"Are all the students nowadays so hardworking? It seems that the student team hasn't notified us that any students will come to help." A fat dispatcher said in a low voice.
Usually, from the time a trainee enters the company to the time he leaves the fleet, he will be arranged to attend administrative classes. To put it nicely, it is to familiarize himself with the company's operations in advance, but in reality, it is to take advantage of the trainee's insignificant status to exploit some cheap labor.
However, most people would not be servile. For this kind of work that does not belong to them, few people would really do it, and they all just want to get by. But Xu Cang's performance today was not a standard slacking posture at all.
"Yes, she swept the floor more carefully than the cleaning lady just now. Wow." Another dispatcher with shiny hair agreed: "Are all the flight trainees nowadays at this level? They are too professional."
Yue Hai next to him rolled his eyes and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? He is not in the administrative class. He came here on his own initiative. He called me yesterday and said that there were too few flights. He asked me if there was any way to add more flights. Then he came here without saying a word. I wonder what he wants to do?"
"Don't you understand?" The fat colleague yawned, put his lunch box aside, picked his ears, and said casually: "Young people nowadays have worse tempers than each other. This is the first time I have seen such a proactive young person. It's rare, rare."
Yue Hai took a sip of the soup and said casually: "So...what do you want to do?"
"What do you mean I want to do something?" The fat colleague pushed Yue Hai with his shoulder and said, "After all, you have eaten two meals with him. It's time for you to return the gift."
Yue Hai put down his chopsticks: "What can I, a dispatcher, do? In the end, he has to rely on himself."
Xu Cang finished his lunch quietly in the empty seat in the corner, and glanced at the clock in the office. It was already one o'clock. There was a first-level co-pilot transfer test at two o'clock, so he couldn't delay it.
Wiping his mouth casually, Xu Cang glanced back at the dispatchers to see if they had finished eating so he could help take the garbage away. However, at a glance, he found that the dispatchers were no longer eating, but gathered together to discuss something.
Xu Cang glanced at another table and saw that the food was almost finished, which meant that the dispatchers had already finished eating. But what were these people thinking about when they got together?
Xu Cang didn't want to wait in vain, he had to go to the examination room early. After waiting for a while, he found that the dispatchers showed no signs of stopping, so he could only whisper: "Have you finished eating? Then I'll take everything away."
Seeing that the dispatchers did not respond, Xu Cang went to clean up the food waste on his own. However, he had not been cleaning up for long when someone patted his shoulder.
Xu Cang was startled, and when he turned around, he found Yue Hai standing behind him. He immediately apologized, "Brother Hai, I have to take an exam in a while. I'll come over after I finish it."
Yue Hai was overwhelmed when he heard that Xu Cang was coming over. He waved his hand and said, "Don't come. You are a pilot, not a cleaner. Also, this is for you."
Yue Hai took out a piece of paper with a lot of names written on it. Yue Hai explained, "These are the second mates who skipped the most shifts in our impression. You can contact them to see if they don't want to fly any shifts."
No matter which industry you go into, there are always passive people, and the aviation industry is no exception. Some pilots are not very enthusiastic about flying, so they will pick and choose which flights they like to fly, and try to assign flights they don't like to fly to others. And any shift change must be handled by the dispatcher, and over time, the dispatchers will roughly know which pilots like to skip shifts.
"The current environment of the company is like this, so don't blame us for not helping you." Yue Hai stuffed the note into Xu Cang's hand: "If you find someone who can take over, call us and we will make a plan for you."
Xu Cang felt warm in his heart. He must have come to help this time hoping that the dispatchers would point out a way out for him because of his hard work. But there are too many people in this world who take others' help for granted. In their eyes, it is their duty to help others, and they don't have any gratitude at all.
If the dispatcher is this kind of person, then even if Xu Cang works until the end of time, it will not make any difference. Fortunately, the result this time is good, and Xu Cang can't help but sigh that there are still more good people in the world.
Although they didn't add more flights for him directly, the dispatcher has done the best they can to this extent.
Xu Cang clutched the note tightly, grateful: "Brother Hai, I will come to help you when I am not flying. If you have any chores, just let me know."
Having said that, Xu Cang did not give Yue Hai a chance to refuse. He collected the food garbage and ran out.
Looking at Xu Cang's receding back, Yue Hai didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This kid..."
The fat colleague came up to me and said, "If he really comes again later, I think this kid has a bright future."
To get the corresponding help, you take the initiative to help for a long time, which is at most a little clever. But if you can remain consistent after getting the help, it means you have great perseverance.
"The best in the history of the Flight Academy." Yue Hai gradually withdrew his gaze from the door and murmured softly, "My little junior brother, how far can you go?"
