Q: Should I move to another job?

I like my job,but this is like a sales job,basic salary plus commision,but still I can't get any orders.So the only I can get is the basic slary,not low,but not good enough to have some luxury shoppings.If I move to another job in some foreign company in Shanghai,I can get more salary,but wont get commisions,do you think if I should move?PS,the company where I am working now is on east nanjiang road,Shanghai,that is my favorate area.But I need to do shopping,if I stay at this job,I can't do some  luxury shoppings.
And also renting fees in the downtown of shanghai  is more expensive,but I like staying in the downtown.

Any body can give me some good advices?

I don't mean to be rude, but the purpose of this website isn't to give advice about your personal affairs....

 

And no one wants to hear yet another girl go on about "luxury shopping," the emphasis people put on it here makes most of us

Girl...if you are posting this on this site while looking for a western man I got news for you.

The biggest turnoff is a girl complaining about lack of money for "luxury shopping".

You need to prioritize...if you are looking for a rich cheating narcissist insecure Chinese man then this is the wrong site.

Victoria1987:

I told that many times,am Iook like a material chinese girl?I like fashional good dresses,the price mostlynot cheap,but did I ask  man to pay them for me?I never asked money from any men in my history.I use my own money to do these luxury shopping,am I wrong,narrow man.Do you think every girl in this world cares this fucking money from man?Be careful of your words,just a narrow stupid man.

I am a young lady,sure,If I can afford to do these shopping,why not?Stylist Dress makes me look better.Should I shame on this,I use my own money.Why should I care?I never gonna date a stupid foreign man even I like foreign man,he must be wise and polite.

Do what you want to do, but I think if you didn't live in the downtown area, and got a better job, you'd earn more money while also saving more money. It's common sense. Only buy what you can afford. What is the point of luxury shopping anyway? Money doesn't buy you class or style.

Victoria1987:

Generally more expensive price will get better quality and better design style,but not 100%,I am saying generally,I can afford rto do that if I change my job for another,but the point is I like city life in downtown,which is so hard to get,normally downtown has lower salary,everything is not that perfect.

Yup,I am not saying every inexpensive things don't have good quality,not rarely,it tkes a lot of time to look for them.That is why I try to get better slary to get better good quality and good style.

Jnusb416:

It's not that you can't buy nice things, that's not why people think you're materialistic. It's that you're considering changing your job only because​ you want those nicer things, not because it would be better for you, or because you like it more. To us, it sounds like you're spending all your money on clothing, which is materialistic. However, if you're saving some of your money, then they'll have a better opinion of you. It's not like I can't afford expensive clothing, I could buy it if I want. I'm at an age where I should be saving my money. It would be so easy to just spend it all, since I'm unattached and basically carefree. But in a few years, when I want to settle down, maybe after I've met the right guy, life will get a lot more expensive. A house, a car, a kid...they're not cheap, and if you want to afford that stuff without a man, you better be saving a lot of money now. A few more years working in Asia, and I could buy a cheap house, or make a decent down payment on a decent house, especially if I would marry a guy that was also saving his money. I'm not rich, and I don't live like I am.

Tapwater:

I agree with your advice Jnusb, but I think money DOES buy class and style. In fact, I think that 'style' is just a way of advertising what social class you're in, and social class is determined by weath.

You know I did sales and marketing back home and although it is tough it can be rewarding....there were people in my company that made over 25 thousand dollars a week with extra bonuses. The CEO's were getting 100 thousand dollar paychecks that they could go to the bank and cash!! I myself was only selling a few here and there considering the town that I was in. I moved on cause I thought there was something else for me although I can always go back. If you don't think it is working out like you like it move on and try something else if all else fails you can always go back. Well at least I can but you still will have the skills to go back if need be.

Victoria1987:

I wanna stay,but they even dont give good benifit,least they should give me some bonus,but not.Even I like this job,come on,I am in china's newyork,renting fee is expensive,I have to pay renting fee,expensive food.I cant just go to work and hve something to eat,then no moeny for doing shopping.I just dont like bad quality dress.

I am gonna stay here for more time to see if I can get anorder,or I am gonna move to another company.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
