When I was in China, my mother had to find my grandmother (her mother) to babysit me when she was doing migrant work in GuangZhou (she did not have a HuKou in GuangZhou, so its basically a second-class citizen). So I’m assuming my grandmother weren’t available for some reason, so my mother took me to her work. It was some sales job that was mostly commission based, the actuall monthly income was low. And also, unlike in the west, the pay was monthly, not bi-weekly or weekly. And forget about unions, they don’t exist.
And not the mention, the fine she had to pay for violating the One Child Policy (I was the second child)

Very tangential, but isn’t the biweekly to weekly pay and american thing? My western country pays monthly too.
