labor war

It was written a long time ago, when the old dean just left, leaving behind a son who can only see a doctor and an old doctor's wife who has half Alzheimer's disease... Pathfinder is the first release, I remember that the founder Abrachen came to leave a message to me, "Why? Is there such a thing?" A year later, the Pathfinder he founded closed down, and I also wanted to leave a message with him, "How could such a thing happen?"...

Author Little Sun's Star and Heart


A few years ago, when the old dean had just left, the old sweeper Tanaka (pseudonym) seemed to be called, and followed him.


On May Day, there is always a long May holiday here, which is called Golden Week in Japan.


During the leisurely Golden Week, when I was dozing off at home watching TV, I received a call from the old doctor's wife.


"Sugiyama! It's not good! Tanaka (Old Sweeper) is dead!"


Clam? ! I screamed really loudly, Tanaka was still dangling in the hospital before the holiday.


"How is that possible?" I couldn't hide my surprise.


The old doctor's voice was also trembling,

"Tanaka came to the hospital in the morning and said he wanted to fry tempura. He just told me to go downstairs to eat tempura. I talked to her, but she didn't respond. I quickly called Hirohito down, (the new director, son of the old doctor's wife), Hirohito She has been given first aid to no avail, and then the ambulance came, her son said in the hospital to give up the first aid..., and then Hirohito and I..."


I kept talking and kept talking, and I had no room to interrupt. I think the old doctor was frightened to some extent.


I tried to sort out her words, what she meant was that the old cleaning Tanaka, during the holiday, went to the hospital by himself, fried tempura, and then ate the tempura that he fried, and choked to death in the hospital.

……………….


Oh! My god! !


My expression really becomes like that "Munk's Cry".

"Tanaka's son came from Tokyo. He also came with the police just now. Then his son said he wanted to see Tanaka's things and said that I took her mother's money..."


The old doctor's mother was incoherent and didn't know what she was talking about.


I'll restore it.


That afternoon, Tanaka's son, accompanied by the police, showed up at the hospital. After listening to Director Hirohito's instructions, he wanted to take his mother's belongings.


His mother Tanaka has been in the hospital for 45 years, and the kitchen is her territory, and the kitchen is full of his mother's things.


Tanaka used to tell us about his son. She always said that, unlike the countryside like us, her son managed a restaurant in a great place in Tokyo. He made a lot of money and was very proud every time.


Shinjuku is Shinjuku, what's so amazing about it? However, for Old Sweeping Tanaka, Tokyo is the cloud, and she may never have been to Tokyo in her life.


Now this son, who has only lived in the mouth of the old sweeper Tanaka, is examining his mother's relics in front of the police, the old doctor's wife and the dean. There are many sundries in a drawer, even banknotes, and a This passbook.


He picked it up, turned it over, and said, "My mother went to the bank yesterday to get 50,000 yuan, and now there is only 40,000 yuan in the drawer. She should only come to the hospital today..."


The old doctor lady doesn't know anything about ten thousand yuan.


The old doctor's wife complained very much afterwards.


"Tanaka brought her son to the hospital a few times when she was a child, and it was so cute back then! Ah, why is it like this now? I don't even recognize it because she looks like her. Tanaka's son means that I took her mother. money? What kind of person am I, I take the money of the sweeper?!”


Maybe it was because of the shock of the 10,000 yuan incident that she felt chilled, and the old doctor's wife avoided seeing each other later, pretending to be sad and unable to speak, and never came out to face Tanaka's son and family directly.


Later, the police confirmed that it was not a homicide and that there was no criminal matter.


The old doctor's wife refused to come forward, and Dean Hirohito looked like I had already explained everything to the police, and the rest didn't do my shit.


"Sugiyama! Contact the labor service and figure it out for yourself!"


I have a very headstrong new dean.


Since I died on the job, I immediately contacted a labor attorney, and all the information about the insurance, various annuities, and bereaved family annuities that the company could handle was properly prepared.



I called Tanaka's son who has a big business in Tokyo.


I said, all the application materials about your mother are ready. Of course, there will be no shortage of personnel help for the funeral, company flower baskets, and generous gifts. After all, your mother has worked in the hospital for a long time, and she is close to the old doctor. It is already a good friend relationship, we must prepare for you with the best specifications.


Tanaka's son asked me, "What about labor disasters and civil compensation?"


I said, "According to the labor agent's investigation, your mother's situation does not apply to labor disasters."


The other party was suddenly furious, "You are now representing the management! Of course you would say that!"


Then hung up my phone with a snap.


It turned out that Tanaka's son didn't want rich favors and a grand funeral, he wanted something with an M symbol.


X! Hang up my phone!


I went to the old doctor and asked her to come to Tanaka's house with me. After all, she was born in Dongda University. It seems that an old man with a lot of weight is much better than a little girl like me, I think.


But the old doctor refused me. She probably heard that Tanaka's son was a difficult character. She said that Hirohito should go with his mother.


The problem is, Hirohito is very self-willed and doesn't do anything. His mother refuses to come forward when he is sick!


These people only choose to do what they like to do. Ugh….


It was the old director who took in the Tanaka family back then. He heard that they owed money and had no jobs, so Tanaka was asked to clean the hospital. However, it was obvious that her son did not appreciate it.


Just as I was sitting in the personnel and accounting room, biting the pen and unable to do anything, I thought that if the old dean was still there, the old dean came out and shouted, and no one dared to speak.


Although the soul of the old dean did not appear, he sent a savior to me.


I called the serviceman and he said yes.


(The old Mr. laborer has cancer, I have been hesitating whether to ask him to come forward)


When I saw the old Mr. Rolex, whose head had fallen out due to chemotherapy, appeared in front of me wearing a fur hat and carrying a heavy briefcase, I felt that his back was shining like a bodhisattva.


Mr. Rolex is my hero!


At Tanaka's house, the old laborer took out the legal provisions and materials he had prepared and spread out on the table. Explain to Tanaka's son.


"According to the provisions of national laws, ... (many are very long), and your mother's situation, one, the day was a holiday, the hospital was not open, and no one was present. And she didn't clock in. Two, your mother worked more than 45 In 2018, going to and from the hospital was like coming from a home. She came to the kitchen to fry tempura that day. This was not her job. She had an accident when she ate the tempura she had fried. This situation is not within the scope of work-related accident benefits. ”


"Of course the hospital has a moral responsibility for the long-term old employees, so there are pensions and salaries..."


The old man of labor was talking incessantly.


Tanaka's son is obviously not interested in the legal provisions,

"You keep saying that my mother went to the hospital by herself, is it because she bullied the dead and can't speak? It must be the stinky old lady who asked her to go! (The stinky old lady in his mouth refers to the old doctor's wife)

Even the holidays have to call my mother, you look so bad! Do you think you are the only one who understands the law? Think I'm afraid to take the legal route? "

Tanaka's son kept scolding and scolding, and said he would sue.


I couldn't hold it any longer, I suddenly felt like an apologist, and I didn't even know I could say so much.


"Your mother has been in the hospital for more than 40 years, and when she goes in and out of the hospital, no one knows when and where she is, and often even the old doctor's wife is looking for her.

The nature of her work is different from ours. We come to work in the morning, cooperate with the consultation time, and after the diagnosis and treatment, we also finish get off work.

But your mother is different. She comes to sweep the floor in the morning and is free time. She runs to tow, to the next door to go to the field department, to buy her own vegetables... Everyone can see it.


Then she came in at noon to clean, and the afternoon was free time again. At night, she came in when she wanted to, and she went out when she wanted to go out. She and the old doctor's wife had been in friendship for more than 40 years. It was an old friend relationship rather than a master and a servant. Never cared about her.


To be honest, I also really want to know why your mother came to the hospital during the holidays. Maybe it’s because she lives alone and she has nowhere else to go. Running to the hospital all day long is the purpose of her life. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the hospital staff. People, everyone's answers must be the same as mine, and they are all facts! "


The old Mr. Rolex glanced at me and went on to say,

"There are many witnesses in the hospital, who can testify to the circumstances, time and content of your mother's usual work in the hospital."


Tanaka's son suddenly lost his momentum.

"Hey, I also have such old employees in my workplace, I can understand. However, my mother was already in poor health later, and she was not good enough for her work. Your employers continue to hire her and tell her to sweep the floor. Is it abusing employees? Isn't the management responsible for mismanagement?"


I said, "Yes! You are right! We should have asked her to leave a long time ago! Your mother was really in poor health at the last stage, her feet were so bad that she could press her nerves, and she was wearing diapers afterward, you know? Several times. The next time we asked her to go back to the elderly because of her health problems, but she refused. She told the old doctor,

Because you want to buy a house, because you need money. She must not lose this job, nor can she quit to work as a part-time job, because the money is not enough. The old doctor's wife saw that it was because of her 40-year friendship that she continued to hire her. "


"Besides, your mother can't clean, we outsourced the cleaning a year ago."


I think he knew because his mother had a pack of diapers in it.

The matter was like this, and Tanaka's son didn't say anything after that.


After the old worker came out of Tanaka's house, he said to me, "Sugiyama-san, you just did a good job! If it wasn't for you, he wouldn't back down."


I said no, I was just telling the truth. I hope I didn't destroy the image of his mother in his heart. In fact, I have really said it very implicitly. In the later stage, I just sat and cleaned and didn't move at all.


And just like that, this thorny incident came to an end.


Not long after, after the old cleaning house, I found that the house where she lived alone for a long time had been demolished by his son and built into a rental suite.


I really want to say something about the big truths of life, but I think the right and wrong are in the heart of the heart.


This is an event in which both employers and employees are at fault.


I thank my hero on a white horse, Mr. laborer, and pray for him to live in peace with the disease and live a long life.
