I hadn't ever checked my status until you mentioned it and just saw that I'm a soldier. Have to admit, was a little excited. So I'm with you on that one bro.

Let me just put my muddy pickaxe right there on the way, take off my shoes and get a nap then.

I am wondering if it's possible that someone makes a big deal out of it? Seriously peasants in China have had miserable lives and while this ranking system might reflect some facts, it also somehow delivers us the information that peasants are the lowest rank in society. They should be respected. The country, the history, the nobles , the city folks and the powerful are unfair to them.

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
