the minimum wage of a day & the fee to use the bathroom
Actually I don’t know I am a dog person or cat person. If the cat and dog can combine together, it will make a perfect pet having the dog’s
loyalty and cat’s self-care. Maybe I want too much. In our city keeping dogs should have licenses, but cats shouldn’t. So there is no limitation on the keeping cats. It seems everywhere has many stray cats, doesn’t it?
Once my friend told me, it cost 10 Yuan to use the toilet in Venice when he traveled there. It is just the minimum wage per day in our city. That means a worker in our city works a day can only afford use the bathroom once in Venice.
So it is not surprised why some people immigrated to other countries and did some underemployed jobs. I knew a guy who graduated from a famous Chinese university worked as pizza deliverer in Canada. Later he came back to China and became a famous educator. Some of my friends also have harsh time when they went to other countries. A woman who used to be a professor in a college worked as a baby-sister in the US.
Anyway works can not be distinguished as honorable and mean. If the works are honest, they are valuable. Hopefully underemployed people will soon find some suitable jobs.

today's your blog take me back to an expreince.when i came to UK first time my husband and i went to the harrods department store in London and i paid one pound for using a toilet. i felt the fee is quite expensive. i'm very surprised your conutry's minimum wage.i've met or seen many chiness students in college and i understand more why they are too tight and try really hard to get a part time job. i totally agree with you that being honest as workers are very important and priceless. have a wonderful day!!!
Speechless.I really donn't want to talk about the chinese stereotype.
