Lisco's American Life

440. The Embarrassment of Les

Les also noticed that everyone's eyes were not so friendly, but before he had time to think about why, the governor above him had already begun to speed up.

"Okay, our Representative Les's proposal has been explained. Now everyone starts to vote for their opinions."

After saying that, Les started to raise his hand. He was still very confident at this time. According to his opinion, his suggestion was beneficial to the people and helpful to the state capital, and it also took into account the opinions of environmental protection enthusiasts.

Reducing commercial land means stopping the damage to the environment, which is a mutually beneficial thing.

After the governor finished speaking, the entire venue was silent, and everyone seemed to be immersed in an atmosphere of silence. Les first looked at the elephant party on his left. No one could see any emotion on their faces, but their hands were placed calmly.

There was no intention of raising it on my own table.

Les's pupils widened, and then he looked at Donkey Dang, who turned his eyes to the side with an incredulous expression.

It's the same situation here. Brayden, who was close to Leslie at the beginning, now looks like he doesn't know him. He turned his face in another direction and moved his butt in the direction of the same party.

He moved to get further away from Les and put aside his relationship with Les.

Les was a little stunned. His cheeks were red. No matter how he thought about it, he would never have thought that his first proposal would be like this. He now felt that the eyes of the entire venue were laughing and looking at him with contempt.

, if there was a crack in the ground now, he would really get into it without hesitation.

Fortunately, the governor above didn't want this farce to continue for any longer, so he spoke directly.

"Okay, now the situation is clear. This proposal is on hold for now and will be discussed later. Now for the next proposal, I would like to invite Representative Braden."

At this time, Les seemed to be escaping and sat back down in his seat. He gritted his teeth and lowered his head so that no one could see his eyes, but his eyes were full of resentment.

Braden stood up and started his proposal. Throughout the whole process, Les remained in the same posture and said nothing until the meeting was over.

After everyone's proposals were voted on and the meeting came to an end, the governor first repeated the successfully voted proposals, then arranged the work of each department and asked everyone to cooperate and handle these matters harmoniously before ending the meeting.

Les packed up his things, then looked up and observed the expressions of the others. When he first entered the venue, Les could still receive smiles and greetings from most people. Now after listening to his suggestion, everyone

People would intentionally pass their eyes over Les.

Les could even see the people in front of him whispering to each other with smiles, and the voices even reached his ears.

"It's really overestimating one's own capabilities. Sure enough, young people just lack experience. I really don't know who is behind him and pushed such a fool."

Les snorted coldly, passed by the crowd, and returned directly to his office.

After the office door was closed, he took off his disguise, yelled, threw the carefully crafted proposal in his hand against the wall, and loosened his somewhat tight tie.

“fuckfuckfuck!”

He cursed and then gasped. In his opinion, he was ostracized by both parties because he did not join a political party. Until now, he still does not know the real reason why his proposal was treated indifferently.

"Bah, bah, bah."

The door of Les's office rang. He quickly picked up the fallen documents on the floor, then arranged his clothes, and then cleared his voice.

"Come in."

Although the meeting just now caused him to lose all face, Leis knew that he could not let his weaknesses be seen in front of his subordinates, and he wanted to show his strong and tough face to his subordinates.

Most people are just looking down on others. If they see a weakness in their superiors, they will spread the word without hesitation. Les has already fallen behind in the battle with members of the same level, and if he is reported like this again

According to rumors, it would almost be a direct defeat.

Competition is everywhere, and the struggle in the political arena is even more intense. Les quickly collected his emotions and spirit, preparing to face his subordinates with an energetic attitude.

The door was pushed open, and in came the assistant who had chosen to stay in the campaign team. A bright smile immediately appeared on Les's face.

He knew that his abilities were limited, and he was just an ordinary rancher before. The only thing worthy of praise was his status as the president of the Livestock Association.

And in this political world as deep as the sea, the help of these proud men is indispensable.

"What happened?"

The subordinate was hesitant to speak, hesitated for a moment, and handed over the document in his hand.

"Mr. Congressman, this is the future arrangement for your work that the governor ordered to be forwarded through the staff."

Les took the document and looked at the text marked in black font above.

"Department of Veterans Affairs? Fuck!"

Les still couldn't resist swearing in front of his subordinates. In the American state government, there are many departments in charge. Almost every congressman can be assigned some specific tasks. There are good fire departments, police departments, and health departments.

, Commerce Department, Interior Department, etc. The Department of Veterans Affairs is undoubtedly the Qingshui Department here, equivalent to China's Archives Bureau. There is almost nothing to do all day long, and most of them have no achievements or prospects in the political arena.

People are assigned here, and their job is to drink tea and read newspapers.

For people who are just dawdling, this is undoubtedly a paradise, but for someone like Les who is determined to make a successful career in politics, it is like being relegated to the sidelines.

Les is still very clear about the performance of these departments, and he also clearly understands that his political career during this period will be temporarily shelved just like his own proposals.

But what he couldn't figure out was that the governor's attitude towards him was still very kind yesterday, why was he immediately treated coldly today? He could vaguely guess that it was a problem with his proposal, but the proposal was carefully prepared by himself.

Yes, no problem found?

The subordinate looked at Les and waited for him to consume a little more information before continuing to speak.

"Mr. Congressman, there is one more thing. This is my resignation. I may not be able to continue working for you. There are other colleagues. This is our resignation."

Les took it and flipped through it, and found that they were all the elites that his campaign team chose to keep at the beginning. Within a few days of choosing to work for him, they all resigned.
