I didn't go to college because I was tired of campus life for a long time because of my poor academic performance. So after graduating from high school, I came to Shenzhen with a passion. I often hear that there are many employment opportunities and ways to get rich in Shenzhen, and I look forward to getting ahead in this bustling big city and making some achievements.
But who ever thought that this big city was not beautiful for me who didn't even have a college degree? After looking for a lot of jobs, I finally found a job as a bottom salesman in a daily necessities company after hitting a wall repeatedly. When I first entered the society, I didn't have any work experience, so I didn't have any performance or promotion at work.
Although I am 23 years old, I haven't saved much so far, let alone bought a house. Even renting a decent house is a luxury. I still live in a four-story building, where many migrant workers live. Toilets and washing places are public, and both men and women are in chaos.
So many times, in order to save time, I will get up early and sit down and wash. Even if you get up early, you still need to queue up every day. Sometimes I am desperate, and I don't know when such days will end.
I really want to change my present life, but my financial strength doesn't allow me to do so, so I can only tell myself day after day that I will bear it again. When I have some savings, I will move out of this depressed and breathless place.
