Interview between social workers and service objects
[Story 1] Help people plant the "seed" of optimism
Case type: service for the unemployed with difficulties Social worker: Zhang Jie
For various reasons, Mr. Cao, the service object, always felt that the original unit was very unfair to him and excluded him. Not only did he not get a salary increase for two consecutive years, but also he was "merciless" and did not renew his contract when the contract expired. Mr. Cao believes that he is over 50 years old, and it is difficult to find a stable job outside. The original unit should not be so ruthless.
Therefore, Mr. Cao was very angry and thought that the original unit owed him something, so he decided to go to the original unit to ask for an explanation. At the same time, because he has never been married and is still single, and his parents have passed away, he believes that his life has no hope and is very depressed.
Later, I communicated with Mr. Cao many times through professional methods, which not only made Mr. Cao cheerful, but also slowly adjusted his attitude, planting a "seed" of optimism in his life. As this seed "took root", Mr. Cao began to say goodbye to negative energy slowly, and found a job through hard work, which opened a new journey of his life again.
