[Episode 59] President, what are you doing?
Jin Eun-soo, who decided to go to a new job for the first time, wore a suit.
“From today?”
“Yes, honey.”
“Go and take care of Siwoo. Hearing that, he heard that he often forgets his position as CEO?”
“You’re Dowoon’s son. I have no choice but to have similar tendencies to Mr. Dowoon.”
“Because Nuri wasn’t this big in Dowoon’s time. You say that it is growing rapidly within a month of opening the shredder?”
“I don’t know either. You should go and figure it out. I’ll take care of my business, Mister.”
“You are an uncle to your husband.”
“Foot, I know how much you care about Siwoo. I know you are trying to take care of Dowoon instead. But now Siwoo has become a full-fledged representative, hasn’t he?”
Jin Eun-soo smiled faintly at the sight of her husband Shin Woo-cheol, who was nagging in the morning.
He knew how much he wanted to take care of Lee Si-woo.
“How big is Dowoon’s vacancy? I am very proud of Siu.”
“Is it the same? I thought Dowoon would suddenly die and sell Nuri for granted… I never expected it to lead to this level.”
At first, Jin Eun-soo thought that of course he would hand over Nuri to another company.
However, as Si-woo Lee gave up on college, he showed responsibility for the Nuri created by Do-woon Lee.
He had a sense of responsibility as well as talent.
‘The process of working as a junk dealer with Mr. Dowoon since childhood has shown me that it is never meaningless.’
Jin Eun-soo stood in the full-length mirror and looked at her attire.
Probably, when I entered the yard, I was thinking of taking off these clothes and changing into work clothes.
“Anyway, you tell Siwoo a lot.”
“Siwoo knows the junk dealer job better than I do. So, turn off your mind and go to work, uncle.”
“Lee, do you want to keep calling me uncle?”
“All of my daughters are becoming adults, you know what?”
“Then are you an aunty?”
“Isn’t that obvious? I go to work! See you later.”
There was a request from Si-woo Lee to take a seat at Nuri’s headquarters rather than a shredding plant.
Kang Pil-joong and Lee Si-woo went back and forth, inspecting the headquarters and the shredding plant at the same time.
However, as the size of the waste grew, the head office did not pay attention to it.
Jin Eun-soo, who arrived at Nuri’s headquarters through a familiar road, put on her shoes and entered the entrance.
“Are you Director Jin Eun-soo, who is coming today?”
Hearing from Si-woo Lee that Jin Eun-soo is going to work from today, Seok-jun Lee took a seat in the yard earlier than the start time.
“Chief Lee Seok-jun?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Nice to meet you. My name is Eunsoo Jin.”
“My name is Seok-Jun Lee.”
Jin Eun-soo proudly held out her hand.
When Lee Seok-jun politely held her hand, she showed a gentle smile.
“Tell me a lot. I don’t know anything about the junkyard scene.”
“I will do my best, Director Jin.”
While the two were greeting each other, Siwoo Lee entered the yard of the headquarters after a long time.
Si-woo Lee, who arrived wearing casual clothes, found Jin Eun-soo and smiled.
“You came early, aunt.”
“Sir, this is work. Could you please call me by your first name?”
Jin Eun-soo uses a hard tone unlike usual. Seeing that, Siwoo scratched his head.
“I will do that, Director Jin.”
“I think the priority is to understand the work in the field today. I will change into work clothes.”
“Hmm, if Director Jin only takes responsibility for the administrative part… … .”
“Administration is also a part that can be carried out easily if you know how the field works, CEO.”
Lee Si-woo nodded at the seriousness of Jin Eun-soo’s eyes.
“Then do that.”
Jin Eun-soo made a sound of shoes and headed to a place where he could be reconciled.
Si-woo Lee also went to the staff lounge to change into work clothes.
“Chief, what are you doing now?”
“Me? Are you going to change into work clothes?”
“With me, why does the CEO want to work?”
“yes? That’s what I’ve always been doing… … .”
Jin Eun-soo had no intention of messing around with her work.
If Lee Do-woon saw this kind of thing, I thought that he would probably have been scolded.
“There has to be something called the rank of representative. I and Manager Lee, who are below the CEO, are there, so why do you want to work?”
“Even as a representative, you have to do what you have to do.”
“When you see the CEO come out and do his work, it seems that you don’t know how much pressure the employees feel.”
Jin Eun-soo scolding Lee Si-woo made Seok-jun Lee look startled.
“Director Jin, just because you’re the CEO doesn’t mean you have to watch from behind.”
“Like the CEO said, I think it only works when Nuri was a local junk dealer. Isn’t Nuri the level of a local junk dealer?”
I made a conflict of opinion with Si-woo Lee from the first day at work.
Pointing out Lee Si-woo’s mistakes was something I had to do as a subordinate and as a senior.
From the very beginning, from the moment Jin Eun-soo joined Nuri, she thought that she would thoroughly inform her.
“… Director Jin, it’s not good if you make it too tight from the first day.”
“It would be quicker to ask this manager. What do you think when the CEO comes out to work in the yard?”
It was the first time.
In the meantime, Kang Pil-joong and Park Tae-moon never pointed out any faults in Lee Si-woo’s actions.
Because I just let Siwoo do what he wants.
“I have the same thoughts as Director Jin. It’s different now than it used to be, sir.”
“This manager… … .”
Si-woo Lee was crying, but Seok-jun Lee’s expression was firm.
Anyway, it was something I wanted to say to Siwoo Lee at some point.
“Efficiency does not increase just because the CEO comes out and works. Rather, it only increases the burden on the employees below.”
“You really think so?”
“yes. Director Jin is right. If there is something difficult for the two directors to deal with, then the representative can step in. But even if the CEO doesn’t step in, I don’t think he’s involved in things that can be handled enough.”
The mere fact that Si-woo Lee was in the position of CEO was an environment in which the employees could work with confidence.
Even if he didn’t have to go to the field and work, the field rolled over.
“Did you hear that? I’ll come and change clothes, so the representative will go to the office.”
The way he grabbed Lee Si-woo from the first day of work was a fresh look for Lee Seok-jun as well.
During this time, none of the staff pointed out Siwoo Lee’s behavior.
As Si-woo Lee entered the office with his droopy shoulders, Seok-jun Lee bowed his head.
“Please go and comfort the representative. It may be frustrating at first, but it’s something you have to get used to, Manager Lee.”
“yes. I will do that, Director Jin.”
Eunsoo Jin went into the container in the corner to change clothes.
And Lee Seok-jun came into the office and comforted Lee Si-woo as she had asked.
“CEO, are you saddened by my words? … .”
“It’s a little sad, but… Not bad.”
As soon as he sat down in the office, Siwoo Lee, who opened the book, smiled softly.
Because Siwoo Lee grew up watching what Dowoon Lee was doing.
Naturally, even as the representative, he had an obsessive notion that he had to work in the field.
“Since he proudly points out the wrong part to the CEO, Director Jin seems like a great person.”
“Yes. It is impossible to ignore the time I spent 15 years working and living at the same time. But there will be a lot of things you don’t know about the site.”
“I think I have to fill in that part.”
Eunsoo Jin came into the office wearing work clothes.
And Kang Pil-jung was also in the yard.
“Chief Kang Pil-jung?”
“Yes, I am writing.”
“My name is Eunsoo Jin.”
Kang Pil-joong, who came to meet Jin Eun-soo, who will go to work from today, smiled.
Kang Pil-joong, holding her hand, looked at Lee Si-woo, who was sitting in the office with a sullen look.
“CEO, why do you look like that?”
“Director Jin told me not to work.”
“yes?”
Kang Pil-joong looked at Lee Si-woo in embarrassment.
“It’s not that we shouldn’t work, we’re just letting you know that the CEO’s job is different from ours.”
“It was my job to work in the field.”
“CEO!”
Kang Pil-joong looked at Lee Seok-joon with a surprised expression at Lee Si-woo’s blunt response.
Lee Seok-jun, feeling the gaze, shook his head.
“Look at me for a moment, sir?”
Jin Eun-soo always filled the place where her mother was absent.
Jin Eun-soo did not discriminate against her own children and used to scold Lee Si-woo severely.
Recalling that memory, Si-Woo strongly shook his head.
“I was joking for a while to change the mood.”
“This is a company. I and the people here are not incompetent enough to worry about the atmosphere.”
“… I’m sorry.”
“Apologizing is not good either. You just need the representative to manage everything on the spot. If you are busy with work in the field, the representative can work with me, but I was thinking that it is not that I am wearing work clothes even when I am not working.”
Lee Si-woo nodded at Jin Eun-soo’s logical explanation.
“I will accept the words of Director Jin as much as possible.”
“I think you’ll know that you don’t need to look down on me, the person below you.”
“I know. Do not worry.”
Jin Eun-soo was like a mother to Lee Si-woo.
Since she was young, she took care of Lee Si-woo.
The woman who filled the vacancy of her mother.
He was also a person that Siwoo Lee could trust and follow.
“Okay then, boss. Go out.”
“Yes, Director Jin.”
“Oh, and Director Kang, come and change your clothes. You don’t have a lot of schedule today, do you?”
“The CEO told me to cancel all my schedules today, so no schedule has been set.”
Kang Pil-joong walked to the break room to change his work clothes at her words.
The conditions that Jin Eun-soo made to Si-woo Lee before leaving for work were simple.
She requested that she want to match Kang Pil-joong even for just one day.
At her request, today’s schedule was all decided by Siwoo Lee.
“Director Jin, I have a meeting in an hour, so I think we should go.”
“Yes, sir.”
“And thank you for making the decision to take charge of Nuri’s account once again.”
“no. It’s better for me to go out and work than to stay at home.”
“Don’t overdo it. If you just sit on a chair and suddenly move, you might get sick.”
When Lee Si-woo left, Jin Eun-soo looked at Lee Seok-joon blankly.
“Do you have anything you want to say?”
“I’m curious. How do employees rate you?”
This was something I needed to find out.
It was necessary to know the level of trust between the employees and Si-Woo Lee to be able to move accordingly.
“At least in the company Nouri, I am not just a young representative. I completely trust you.”
“How much is that trust?”
“No matter what you ask for, the staff will do it without any complaints. Even if it is too much work, I will trust the CEO and make it unconditionally successful.”
Siwoo Lee had to work hard to build this level of trust within a year.
Do you know that if there was no trust between the employees and the CEO, the company would not be able to operate properly.
“Even if you just look at it, do you think that this is an unconditional loss?”
“yes. I unconditionally trust the CEO.”
“okay.”
“Because, until now, the CEO has never done anything that would cost him.”
Siwoo Lee was such a representative.
A reliable representative who never shakes the employees.
There was a business acumen that never lost money.
The disposal of the DS waste, which he thought would be a loss, was also completed in just two weeks.
The main thing was that Nuri was recognized by the city by handling the work rather than financial gain.
“That is enough.”
“I heard that Director Jin has seen the CEO for a long time.”
“I have seen you since childhood.”
“I want you to erase those memories, at least for the time you are working here. It is good to point out the wrong behavior of the CEO, but it is not good to lower the status of the CEO in front of the employees.”
“… I was wrong. It was something I should have said separately.”
“Nuri’s staff cannot be on the side of Director Jin. We are always on the representative’s side.”
Just because his rank was lower than Jin Eun-soo, he couldn’t follow all the doctors.
The more people below, the more it is necessary to restrain her so that she does not overdo it.
“I will listen to the words of this manager.”
“I’m sorry for pointing this out to Director Jin.”
“no. That’s a good look. It’s better to move in consultation with each other than to choose arbitrarily.”
At first, Lee Seok-jun was wrong.
Jin Eun-soo didn’t want the employees to be on his side.
‘I’m also on Siwoo’s side, but what… … .’
