Q: Are people more stressed out this time of year?

The last couple of weeks I seem to have seen an increase in random people yelling at each other in public. Is it a coincidence or is "winter" getting to people, have they started stressing about the upcoming joy of taking the train with 300 million other people for CNY, or are they feeling bad they will not be able to bring back as nice gifts as they would have hoped ?

I don't know about you...but I'm stressed! Final exams, final marks, report cards...next semester's schedule to prepare...teachers leaving, new teachers (hopefully) coming in...

 

Gifts to buy, Hong Baos to prepare, tickets to order,,,

 

Bills on the rise (gas and electricity)...kids tuition to pay...

 

Yelling at people in public? I blew up just yesterday in the office after being asked the same question by the tenth person in a row (B-I-N-G-O! You win an exclusive demonstration of a breakdown by a foreign manager!!!! Your prize? You are lucky to escape with your life...this time!)

 

Meh. Only to be young and single again!

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
