The speaker invested 100,000 RMB in the '积极宝' product, expecting modest but steady returns. However, they discovered that the daily earnings were only 0.6 RMB, which they found extremely disappointing given the amount invested. They compared this to the potential earnings from part-time work, such as helping others with online tasks, which they believe would yield better returns.
The speaker sarcastically interprets the '稳健' (steady) nature of the '积极宝' product as a means to stabilize the investor's mindset rather than providing steady financial returns. They humorously suggest that the product's purpose is to make the investor emotionally stable by accepting minimal earnings, rather than offering robust financial growth.
During the team-building event, the speaker describes an activity where colleagues were made to stand outside in cold weather (around 3 to 10 degrees Celsius) wearing only small vests. They were asked questions about company policies and procedures, and the goal was to see who could endure the longest. This activity led to some colleagues collapsing and experiencing physical discomfort.
The speaker describes their workplace as highly social, with colleagues often spending time together outside of work, such as going for massages or meals. They note that the office environment is very noisy and lacks space for introverted individuals, as everyone tends to be loud and involved in group activities. The speaker also mentions that they and another colleague are seen as more reserved, often excluded from group activities.
The speaker reflects on their career and personal growth, acknowledging that they have not achieved all their aspirations, such as becoming a singer or actor. However, they express a sense of contentment with their current state, despite some regrets and missed opportunities. They emphasize the importance of being honest with oneself and pursuing meaningful work, even if it comes at a high personal or financial cost.
