82 – 82. Overflowing (4)
“Kim Yun-seon, I am your assistant manager.”
Kim Yun-seon, who answered the phone, felt something awkward about her even though she spoke with her own mouth.
A substitute. She
Not only did she not get used to the sudden employment, but she also couldn’t get used to the change in her title from assistant to assistant manager.
If people around her constantly call me Darry and say she is Darry a lot, she might get used to it, but she wasn’t like that at all.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon was assigned a small office by herself.
She had no special work under the guise of conducting research on Mexico; all she did was classify and organize Mexico’s current social issues and analyze the consumption tendencies and needs of the Mexican people.
‘What is that?’
To put it in a good way, it means granting autonomy, but in a bad way, it means not deciding what to do.
The work instructions were so disorganized that it made me wonder if I had joined Seohwa Group, a huge corporation that runs the Republic of Korea.
I thought it was because it was an order given by conglomerate Seo Woo-jin, but when I thought about it, I also thought it was a job fraud.
That is, until I wrote the employment contract on Monday afternoon.
‘What is this??’
Kim Yun-seon did not blink when she saw the employment contract.
How much is the basic salary?
Is this salary worth receiving?
A reasonable amount of money.
Of course, I know very well that this is a large company.
However, Kim Yun-seon had seniors, classmates, and juniors who got jobs at large companies while working as a teaching assistant, but they had never heard of such salaries.
Kim Yun-seon asked the personnel department staff several times if it was really okay for her to sign the employment contract.
On the contrary, the HR staff was embarrassed.
In the end, the HR staff member told General Manager Seo Woo-jin what he had heard.
– Director Seo Woo-jin was instructed to pay special attention to Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon because he is a valuable talent of our Seohwa Group.
‘Ears, precious?’
Kim Yun-seon’s cheeks turned red in an instant.
So much so that the human resources employee who made eye contact with her misunderstood that her cheeks were red when she saw her face.
Of course, those red cheeks were not directed at the squid-like human resources staff, but at General Manager Seo Woo-jin.
‘Did you think of me like that?’
When I first met him, I didn’t think much of it.
Just saying this is what chaebols look like?
Having people like bodyguards around him made him look even more like a chaebol.
That was it.
There were no other emotions at all.
But on the day they met, something unbelievable happened to her.
Professor Kim In-tae,
Him, the powerful man of Yeonkwang University,
To a teaching assistant like Kim Yun-seon, he is like a god.
I sent it away in an instant.
What did you say?
Did you say that you incinerated waste for ESG management?
Is it okay for a chaebol to make such crazy drips?
And after talking,
It was so pleasant and comfortable that I wondered what kind of conglomerate there really was.
So when he asked me to work with him, I said yes.
At least I didn’t look like someone who would do bad things.
On the contrary, he seemed like a good person, or rather a good man…
Also, did you say you would provide financial treatment?
Usually, such things are said before getting a job, and I knew that if I actually wrote an employment contract, it would be a realistic contract.
‘But it really is like financial therapy.’
By signing an employment contract, Yun-seon Kim gave up her job as a university assistant and became an assistant manager at a large company.
The calm feeling of trust was gradually becoming stronger.
‘I really need to work hard.’
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon made up his mind like that.
Although he received only rough work instructions, he decided to somehow organize and document the knowledge and know-how he had accumulated while working as a teaching assistant at Yeonkwang University.
There was nothing lacking while working.
Han Dong-soo, who I thought was a bodyguard, was a man working in the Seohwa Group’s secretariat, and if there was anything I needed, he would come and provide it and leave.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon was also moved by that.
This was proof that Director Seo Woo-jin cared about Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon.
So she worked even harder.
She did not have anyone give her instructions, intervene, or supervise her, but she worked hard to compile all her knowledge on her own.
And when she had accumulated some of her data, she went to Director Seo Woo-jin to report.
Actually, I thought he would call or visit me at least once during that time, but there was no sign of that happening at all, so I didn’t visit him at all.
At that time, he put on his makeup thoroughly, which he usually did not do well, and sprayed plenty of collagen mist.
But there we faced a huge wall.
‘What is this woman?’
Secretary Kim Chae-yoon.
She was the woman who answered the phone when Director Seo Woo-jin called her to make sure she was there.
I was surprised by the sweet voice on the phone, but I was even more surprised when I saw her in person.
Isn’t she an actress?
A beauty so great that it makes you think.
A mask so pretty that even a woman’s eyes would look big.
A body with a cool, tall body full of volume.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon was a woman with such perfect appearance that her own appearance seemed shabby.
‘I, I! I’m here to report! ‘There’s no other intention!’
Then, I regretted not spraying more of her collagen mist.
And then we met Director Seo Woo-jin.
She trembled strangely.
It makes me wonder why I am like this.
But it must not be revealed.
I came here to work, and to meet with Director Seo Woo-jin to make a report.
I never came because I wanted to see the face of Director Seo Woo-jin.
As she thought about it, she found herself drinking gyeolmyeongja tea.
Because of Secretary Kim Chae-yoon’s amazing appearance, I asked for her coffee instead of the coffee I usually drink.
And in the subsequent conversation with Director Seo Woo-jin, he made a strange noise.
– I like a man like Director Seo Woo-jin!
‘Mi, are you crazy?’
Kim Yun-seon immediately lowered her head.
She couldn’t bring herself to look at Director Seo Woo-jin’s face as she said those words.
She had to report on the current state of Mexico, which she had been organizing, which was the reason she came to the office.
– Bang, forget what I just said, forget it. Then I will report, report, report…
‘Is that my voice?’
The voice is so shriveled that it makes you want to hear it.
I barely said what I wanted to say and left.
I couldn’t remember exactly what Director Seo Woo-jin said at the end.
What I remember is that I quickly got out of the office?
Did you say hello and leave?
I think that was probably the case.
However, there was no feedback on the Mexico status report at all after that.
‘I’m screwed.’
You must have been disappointed.
He gave up Professor Kim In-tae, an authority in Mexico, and brought him with him, but he made strange noises and couldn’t do anything properly.
I thought maybe that was the reason why no feedback was given.
What does Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon do?
When I brought it here, it wasn’t that big of a deal, right?
You know about Mexico, right?
Please come up with an alternative quickly!
I wondered if they were having meetings with the HR staff every day on this topic.
‘Will my contract be terminated?’
I thought it was cheap.
It is true that I got a job under good conditions, but I had no intention of paying Lupine.
Assistant Manager Kim Yoon-seon recognized that having a high salary means having to make a greater contribution to Seohwa Group.
But look at yourself now?
Is this what a high-income salary person looks like?
No.
Not at all.
At that time when I was wasting my time like that,
There was a phone call.
– Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon. This is Chae-yoon Kim.
A sweet voice comes from the phone.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon also thinks he has a good voice, but Secretary Kim Chae-yoon has a different quality and a good voice.
“Ah. Yes, Secretary Kim. “What’s going on?”
– Director Seo Woo-jin asks you to come up now. Can you come right away?
Ah..
Has it finally come?
“It was Director Seo Woo-jin who called me to Seohwa Group, and when I sent him there, Director Seo…”
– Yes?
Are you pretending not to know?
No.
You may not know.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon answered with a determined voice.
“I’ll go up right now.”
After hanging up the phone, Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon took a deep breath.
Although it was short, it felt like a very long time at the company.
It would be a shame to give up good conditions, but Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon was not a fool.
Rather, I felt sorry.
Just the fact that he had disappointed Director Seo Woo-jin, who recognized him, made him feel unbearable.
‘Yes. Rather, it worked out well. This is not my place. However, Director Seo Woo-jin… I’m really disappointed…’
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon shook her head.
He is a chaebol.
He was a person who could not fit in with his ordinary self.
He knew it in his head, but in a corner of his mind, he was wondering, ‘Perhaps?’
So, I didn’t know that he was working hard to document the current situation in Mexico in order to be recognized for his work.
Now, it has completely gone to waste.
‘What on earth were you thinking? There is a woman right in front of me who looks like secretary Kim Chae-yoon. ‘They won’t even look after a woman like me.’
This is the end.
All you have to do is hear the words ‘quit’ from Director Seo Woo-jin.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon visited Director Seo Woo-jin with such thoughts.
I entered the office of Director Seo, guided by Secretary Kim Chae-yoon, who still looked good for a woman.
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon bowed politely with a stern expression on her face.
“Hello. “Director Seo.”
“Huh? Assistant Manager Kim. “You came quickly?”
“I came up right away after receiving the call. “I need to hear these things quickly because it puts my mind at ease.”
Director Seo Woo-jin’s face changed strangely.
“Are you listening? “Shouldn’t I listen?”
“??”
“I’m talking about reporting.”
“Yes?”
Director Seo Woo-jin, who realized that they were thinking about something different, quickly spoke up.
“Report on the current situation in Mexico at that time. “Try again now.”
Ah.
I’m not getting fired.
Only then did Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seon’s face relax.
