Deteriorating economic downturn makes job-seeker lower expectation


As the economic situation get worse and worse all over the world, almost every industry received a big blow, for instance, insurance, real estate ,foreign trade, logistics, etc. Job-hunting is no exception. we can easily witness the bad situation which caused by the worldwide financial crisis.
The number of graduates from university and colleage growing fastly, but job market shrinking fastly recently, which form the contradiction. Layoffs and a shrinking job market have forced fresh graduates to lower their expectations of finding good jobs,they try to find a job even with low salary.


The main reason are as following:
The collapse of many small- and medium-sized enterprises because of the financial crisis has made graduates' job of finding employment more difficult, which cause the job vacancy become little and little.
The other factor making the job market more competitive is the return (and likely return) of a large number of students studying abroad because of the global financial crisis
It is really terrible.

Nov 11th (11.11)

Today, I learned a piece of news from internet, it says a chinese young gal auction her time of Nov 11th for male, and the reserve price is RMB10,000. The winner will have an opportunity to dine with this gal in the evening as so called" romantic candle dinner". Suprisely, many males are eager to win the bid, which is really a amazing also interesting news.

Why her Nov 11th is so costly, I think you may have some idea about that, simply because we take nov 11 as a day which is for single male and female, so which is also funny called "GuangGunJie" in china means "single day". Both male and female maybe wanna end the single life and live a completely new life.

Needless to say, most people are very sensitive about Nov 11th (11.11), particularly for thoese who are single for the time being. I dont know how is the day derived from, maybe it is just for fun. In my memory, I got this concept in my campus life. During the single day, classmates and friends will send instant message to each other(single only), or say "happy single day" face to face. When time stroke Nov 11th 11:11, dormitory will become the sea full with joy. They begin to celebrate the day and express their feeling via strike washbasin, bowl, cup and anything eles near by. sometimes they will light fireworks for the moment. And sometimes you may hear the voice as:" *** I love you", this might be the climax points for the day to some extent.

As 2008. 11.11 drawing near and near, here may all the single have a happy day. Hope you enjoy a totally different life style soon.
