[Workplace] [Women's Growth] [Quitting Without Notice and Fighting Back] [Urban Life] No golden finger, no domineering CEO to back me up. At forty, I was cast aside once I was no longer useful, but I turned a losing hand into a royal flush.
Xia Wanqing, a forty-year-old sales assistant, had put in eighteen years at CCHH Company. She never earned respect. Instead, she was targeted with age discrimination, had her bonuses maliciously cut, and was cast aside once she was no longer useful. She wouldn't put up with her vicious boss. She quit on the spot and stood her ground!
Age barriers shut every door in her job search. A seasoned workplace veteran, she was reduced to pretending she still had a job. When she returned to the workplace, she drew on eighteen years of sales connections to resolve a crisis caused by excessive inventory left by her predecessor, and quickly established herself. Just as her career was taking off, her mother suddenly became seriously ill. To care for her family, she resolutely quit.
Then she caught her husband secretly driving for Didi to help make ends meet. The burdens of life left her no way out. She taught herself to make short videos, but barely anyone watched. On her first livestream, she was at a loss. She had no golden finger, no domineering CEO to support her, and no luck to go viral overnight. All she had was the determination to try again and again.
When a former coworker deliberately disrupted her livestream, she seized on their weakness and hit back hard. When Youjin offered her another chance, she flatly refused, standing tall and proud!
People say a middle-aged woman's life has nowhere to go but downhill, but Xia Wanqing is determined to be the exception! So what if she's forty and quits without notice? So what if she's unemployed? The workplace injustices and hardships of life that couldn't defeat her will eventually become light, making her shine on camera.
Close to life, not mindless, come on
