Mikael_Shim:
hehe, the 2 tigers running fast, one without tail and one without ears and how strange that is?

If im not mistaken thats an old song often used in learning non natives to speak Chinese.

I have a question for some of the members that have much more experience and understanding about Chinese women.  Does the family really take it bad when another family loses a very good job?  I don't understand all of the circumstances yet but I am thinking gee this really isn't such a big deal but Peggy really thinks it is.  I have no clew about their tradition or culture in this area.

maxx:
It's usually a huge deal.The more prestigious your job the more face you have.The better the job the more influence you have.For a example I will list some jobs.The worst jobs first.

# 1 panhandler
#2 trash man street sweeper,
#3 domestic servant
# 4  factory worker/ restaurant worker.
# 5 store clerk
#6 teacher
#7 Office manager
# 8 government worker lower management
# 9 doctors lawyers
# 10 business owner
# 11 cop
# 12 company owner
# 13 bigwig in government. City leader,Distric leader,Province leader,

The farmer's are about a half step higher in the social ladder.Above the trash man.The people who supply food to the restaurants.Are in the same place as the farmer.The social order can also be broken down by where the person comes from.By city,or province.If you had a job as say a cop.And you got fired.And took a job as a store clerk.You have lost all your face.Your family will be really mad at you.
