Chapter 207: Trouble Brewing



Sekani walked out of the rented car with Wilfred. The noise quickly died down as people saw the man himself walking toward their direction. They saw a familiar face but they couldn\'t exactly pin where they\'d seen him before.

He had cleaned up nicely. Living in the lower district, he didn\'t care much about his appearance. Now he\'d not only shaved and put himself in a suit, he\'d also gained weight from his previous gaunt look.

Philip quickly showed them their way in. Sekani slightly bowed to the people as he walked by, a greeting that surprised them. Usually people like him, didn\'t acknowledge people like them.

"I don\'t think they recognise you." Philip chuckled.

"I\'m sure they do, they probably think I\'ve changed to a menacing rich person or something of that degree." Sekani complained.

They entered a big hall where the interviews would be held. They\'d take 10 candidates at a time. So that they could walk faster.

They intended to hire most if not all these people. They had plants in the lower and middle district after all, a plant would need all sorts of workers not just those who will be building the pods.

The office will also need people who\'ve done the business side at school. All in all, they were here to check their skills and designate them accordingly.

Wilfred was in charge of calling out candidates outside and ushering them inside the building. They were grouped by the same set of skills they studied.

10 minutes after they\'d entered the hall, Wilfred called out for the first 10 to enter. Just like that, the interviews begun.

The first batch were a bunch of youngsters, who looked like they\'d just graduated from an academy. This was for office workers. Some offered coding, some finance, some marketing and the like.

"So, where did you attend your academy." The question was directed to the redhead who was first in line.

She cleared her throat, "Ytrw Academy." She answered nervously thinking her chances of being hired here went up in smokes.

Sekani nodded.

"I know the reputation it has, but I promise, I can deliver on whatever I\'m tasked to do." She spoke up for herself, hating that the reputation of where she studied may ruin her chances of a good job.

"I went to Ytrw academy as well, so it\'s really fine." Sekani said trying to calm her down.

That seemed to make matters worse, she hyperventilated. She couldn\'t fathom how someone from a sh*tty academy was able to climb and claw out of the lower district.

"Wilfred, please bring her water."

They moved on to the next candidate, as the girl was still in a shocked state. Still trying to understand the situation. The rest were also caught in the same dilemma as she was. But they did a better job at hiding it.

These interviews dragged on for seventy two hours. All 3 of them looked like zombies by the end of them. They\'d underestimated the large number of people that were unemployed and looking for work.

Sekani had built an automated phone call message software. Which called them all at the same time, to announce the good news that they were expected to come for training the next day.

The news brought a joyous mood in the lower district. Celebrations were in the air. Though some were dejected that they would have to work in the middle district. Getting up very early so that they don\'t miss the train, knocking off late and having to travel a good distance were concerns amongst many.

Sekani was ahead of them though, he\'d hired a train for his company that would act as transportation for employees working far from home. He was also not a cruel boss, he wouldn\'t let them slave away and make them unable to spend much time with their families.

He had experienced it first hand and vowed to do better. So work would start at 9 am until 4 pm. It wasn\'t exactly a bad deal.

When they read these conditions on their contracts, they were elated. Plus the wages were well way above the living wage. They\'d be paid starting at 5k every 2 weeks, depending on their jobs.

"Before signing, please read them carefully, don\'t just get excited over the wages. Who knows, maybe I\'m a big bad wolf in sheep\'s clothing. Always read these carefully, you know how serious the law takes such contracts." Sekani advised them.

He saw the excitement they had, even though he meant them no harm, they shouldn\'t readily sign anything without reading. They could be selling themselves as slaves for all they know.

His only goal now was to elevate the standard of living in the lower district. Once the government catches wind of this, they will have no choice but to take care of the lower district as they do the other two.

"This guy looks like he will be a good boss." The employees were chatting amongst themselves.

"If I\'m honest, I don\'t trust rich people. But we will see how well he takes care of us."

Trust between districts was nonexistent. Sekani understood that too, he wouldn\'t force them to like him, or anything like that. He\'d just let his actions speak for himself and with time, hopefully, the broken trust can be mended.

Training would take 3 weeks at most and after that they\'ll finally be able to start business. The training was held by the 3 of them. They didn\'t have anyone else, but they felt better doing it by themselves.

Wilfred trained those who would be working in offices, cleaning and the like.

While Philip and Sekani showed them how to create the pods and how to install the software into them.

"Mr. Waynworth, there\'s a phone call here for you. Claims to be the Blakeson Tech lawyer, they want to talk to the owner of Waynworth Enterprise." Wilfred told him, holding the phone in his hands.
