You look a bit dull today. What's up?
Well, my mum lost her job yesterday.
I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I heard that registered urban unemployment rate reached 4 percent this year, with more than half being women.
The supply outstrips the demand in the job market and women are in a disadvantageous position as a whole.
Yeah, it's true. What is she going to do?
Well, she is thinking of doing some household cleaning or baby sitting in the community.
That's not bad. It could be a short-term alternative. Your mum can look for another one when the market improves. Things will work out eventually.
Thank you. I just hope she won't feel pressed.
