Q: What do Chinese do with all the facial tissue they don't use?

So I get that blowing one's nose openly in China without using a tissue or hankerchief is acceptable practice. whether because it is far too expensive a hobby or because that's just what you do, just like the custom of shaking hands. 

 

So what happens to all the facial tissue Chinese don't use? Even you eschew the gratuitous action of consuming a product that is useful for only one second, Chinese will receive these little packets of tissue paper as gifts and subtle hints. 

 

What happens to them? And they bequeathed to the next generation? A hope chest, as it were?

It's used for toilets (mostly women) or to clean something (ie. wiping dust or water from the surface of something).

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
