The next day, Yuan Chun took the procedures for transferring her household registration to the personnel department and registered her household under the steel factory's name, then went to the cafeteria to report.
Yuan Chun's job was simple—just washing and chopping vegetables.
The steel factory had three cafeterias, each serving thousands of people, requiring a terrifying amount of food, with hundreds of pounds of potatoes alone.
On her first day of work, Yuan Chun washed and sliced potato chips all morning.
Luckily, people in this era didn't peel potatoes, or just this one dish would have overwhelmed the cafeteria staff.
In the afternoon, Yuan Chun spent the whole time washing and chopping chili slices. Her hands touched so many chilies for the first time, making all ten fingers feel prickly and uncomfortable.
