The number of cadres in civil service units who choose to resign is less than 2% of the total number, which means that the vast majority still stay. Everyone is insisting on it even though they know that the benefits and income are average, and there is no obvious improvement in the salary at present. Why?

Why do grassroots civil servants keep complaining about low wages, but why do they still choose to stay? , maybe 100 people will have 100 different answers, which may be roughly divided into the following categories:

Reason 1: The saddest thing is the relationship between parents

In 2011, that is, the year of childhood After Ou had been working for five years, he had the idea of ????resigning. At that time, publicly funded medical care had been cancelled, and there were frequent rumors that civil servants wanted to raise their salaries, but there was no follow-up to the rumors every time. Moreover, after the "festival expenses" paid by civil servants during the four major holidays every year were also removed, his personal finances were tight, and the rent accounted for half of his salary. The income gap among classmates and friends made Xiaoou feel a little disoriented, so he mentioned resigning to his father. Before he could finish his words, the father on the other end of the phone became angry and said with a slap in the face: "You young people nowadays, when you stand on one mountain, you feel that another mountain is higher. What a stinky problem! You don't have to say it if you are far away, I just say you." Uncle, I have been teaching in the valley for decades. I have been working hard all my life and have never thought about resigning..." Xiaoou couldn't listen anymore and asked his father to calm down on the phone, saying that he was just thinking about it at the moment.

“I can’t even think about it!” Xiaoou’s father put down the phone angrily.

The little gull was silent. As a result, the next day, his mother called again: "I have been studying for you for so many years, and now you have become more capable! If you dare to resign, please be careful!" Xiaoou silently put away his desire to resign. He was not afraid. Despite his mother's threats, he knew that after he was admitted to the civil service, resigning would no longer be his responsibility.

Reason 2: You won’t let go after hard work

You will cherish things that are hard to come by. This is a common problem among people, just like buying a car through lottery. As mentioned earlier, I was able to get into the civil service examination by accident. However, many of my colleagues became civil servants by accident. Especially as the difficulty of the civil service examination increases, passing the civil service exam becomes increasingly less likely. Xiaolin and I started working in the same year and worked in units in different districts and counties. I was an undergraduate and she was a graduate student. According to the relevant regulations on civil servant management, master's degree graduates should be transferred to deputy chief clerk after the expiration of their internship period. This kind of treatment is relatively easy to achieve in units at the ministerial and department levels, but it is difficult to achieve in units at the division level and below. Nearly three years after she graduated, she still had not been promoted to deputy chief clerk, so she wanted to leave or take the civil service exam again at the ministry. But two years later, she was still busy in her position. When I was on the phone, I said teasingly: "What's the matter? You're too fat to fly away?" She said that I deserved a beating, and explained at the same time; "Several of my classmates still want to take the civil service exam. Think about it. It was not easy for me to pass the exam, so it felt a pity to leave like this." She also took the national exam later, but the ministry threshold was too high and she failed to pass.

I know that the key to her ability to stay is the hukou issue. She often said that living in Beijing, people without a household registration are like a leaf of duckweed. After all, civil servants are unambiguous in solving household registration issues.

Reason 3: It becomes a habit day and night all year round

Tagore once said: "The snare is tough, but my heart aches when it is about to be torn." There once was a security guard in our unit. He was in his twenties and graduated from high school. When I met him, he had been working as a security guard for several years. I asked him: "For a young man like you, why don't you learn technology? It's better than earning more than 1,000 a month. Even digging earth at a construction site can make more than this?" He smiled shyly. He laughed and said, "The educational level is low and it is difficult to find a job. I also know that security guards earn little, but being a security guard does not require you to be too tired, and secondly, you do not have to worry too much. Just salute and register guests when you go to work. It is quite worry-free." "At that time, I laughed at him for being too unmotivated and thinking about how life should be. Later, when I thought about it, we were actually similar to him.

Many of my colleagues have complained about low wages, but if they really want to quit, they will definitely be reluctant to leave. I know an elder sister who said that everyone hopes to make more money, but she does not envy those who are good at making money. To earn more, you have to pay more. This is an iron rule. She said that over the years, she has been accustomed to the regular life of "9 to 5", the management system that is not completely linked to income, and the energy to cook and take care of her husband and children after finishing work every day. family. So even if she is given a high-paying new job, she will definitely not be able to stand the regular overtime work, irregular work and rest hours, and performance appraisals that are closely linked to income, let alone being unable to take care of her family.

For me, what I am accustomed to is not only the work itself, but also the city of Beijing. Even though it was crowded, polluted, and stressful, I was very uncomfortable with it when I returned to the countryside. I'm used to being a civil servant in Beijing.

Reason 4: Which industry can you enter after jumping out?

People who are capable always jump around. Many of my friends often change jobs, and every time they change their jobs, their salaries increase, which is very enviable. When working in a company, if you identify an industry and stick to it, you will definitely find a position that suits you even if you are not in the company in the future. However, this is not the case in government agencies.

Some jobs have been done for many years, only to find that they are useless: they are almost useless without this job. Raising a family in Beijing requires better treatment, but if they jump out of government agencies, many people's professional abilities are simply impossible to compare with other students who graduated at the same time, and they will not have a competitive advantage in the market. I have many friends who work in administrative jobs. After working for a few years, they have basically said goodbye to their jobs. Even if they are exposed to market-oriented human resources competition, it is difficult to have a high income.

Reason 5: Even the low salary is decent

Many people do not like civil servants from the beginning, especially those majoring in science, engineering and economics. Once they embark on this path , leaving your job is not just your own business. Almost all parents are proud to have a child who is a civil servant, and classmates and friends also think that being a civil servant in Beijing is very remarkable. Some rural areas even mistake being a civil servant in Beijing for being a senior official, which often makes a lot of ridiculous jokes. My hometown is in a very remote rural area. When I returned to my hometown for the first time as a civil servant, an old neighbor asked me: "Do you live in front of Tiananmen Square? Do you see the President every day..." I almost Didn't faint. It took me a long time to explain, but he was doubtful and then asked me, "Are you making a lot of money now?" I hurriedly said, "Actually, it's almost the same as the civil servants back home." The old man smiled slyly and muttered: " I’m not spending your money, and I’m not telling the truth.” I stopped explaining.

Like many parents, my parents feel honored because I am a civil servant. And from the perspective of income in my hometown’s rural area, they don’t think I earn less. Therefore, although the job of a civil servant is low-paying, it is respectable after all. Many parents, including in Beijing, hope that their children can be admitted to the civil service. This is an indisputable fact. In particular, many families like to find civil servants as wives or sons-in-law. When I was unmarried, many people helped me introduce partners, and it is not an exaggeration to say that women who are civil servants have no worries about getting married.

Reason 6: Always look forward to the future

As a Western proverb says, Rome was not built in a day. Therefore, our treatment may not get better all of a sudden. However, in a big city like the capital, it is not always necessary to talk about improved salary, but the heavy pressure of life is unbearable. Many colleagues, like me, firmly believe from the bottom of their hearts that tomorrow will be better. This is an unchanging expectation. The day before yesterday, my colleague Xiao Jia said to me mysteriously: "The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China said that the 'basic' role of the market should be raised to a 'decisive' role. Do you know what it means?" I said: "No. I know." Xiao Jia continued: "The market plays a decisive role, which means that we must act in accordance with the laws of the market. Do you understand what it means to act in accordance with the laws of the market?" I added, "I don't know." Xiao Jia said helplessly, "That's right. We need to keep the remuneration level of our civil servants in sync with social development!" I said, "Oh my god, I dare to go in such a big circle, just to talk about a salary increase!" In fact, it's not just Xiao Jia and I, many colleagues are looking forward to it. And I firmly believe that the treatment will get better and better. It is this expectation that inspires everyone to hold their ground.

Why do we still stay in the civil service even though our income is not high? The above is a simple introduction, and it certainly cannot explain everyone’s difficulties. Take me for example, maybe I have some of the above six reasons. My wife made it clear that even if I were given a high-paying job, she would not want me to leave my job. She felt that marrying a civil servant would make her feel secure. As for myself, as a civil servant, I still have many ideas that I want to realize. Of course, what one family says may not stand up to scrutiny everywhere. For me, why I did not leave the civil service is not the point. The point is: since you are not leaving, you must work hard and do well. This is not about getting promoted and making money. What's more is: to show one's own value at work, to assume individual responsibilities at home, and to make life fulfilling, upward and full of fun.
