Q: How does Bertie Wooster compare to your average Chinese tuhao? Who's more benign?

Bertie was pretty harmless wasn't he? He wasn't rude to wait staff and he knew how to queue...

 

Tuhao Chinese on the other hand...

I wonder...... Jeeves of this age would probably be a spin doctor, or a PR consultant

 

Ahhh... I see..... they don't have them here too.  Because under Chinese culture, bosses do not take advice from underlings.

 

Lol, if there was any justice in the world Jeeves would be the boss and not Bertie. Jeeves would have been just the man to lead the revolution.

 

Och, now see what you have started. You mention a fictional character from the British aristocracy, and I am starting to go all red on you, talking about justice, revolutions, and before you know it, about the stupidity of having people sit in the House of Lords who are only there by accident of birth wink

Ah, the house of lords, the real government. The house of commons is an illusion to keep people calm. I noticed Labour said they would disolve the house of lords. We all know that will never happen.

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
