Construction





This is the site I saw today going into work. Its a very common sight in Shanghai, the Chinese using bamboo scaffolds to hold up construction workers on sight. While an American worker would never go near them the Chinese see construction as one for the best ways to move up and with sky-rocketing growth China is experiencing expect more and more Chinese from the countryside to come into the city and work under these conditions. Here's an article to give you some perspective http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4994478.stm

hey buddy - glad to see that everything is falling into place for you over there. I'm sure China is not much different from the US, minus a couple billion people and the knock-off clothes (boy i love the free world... but that's another story). Keep up the blogging, I'm interested in hearing what life is like across the pond and just how everything is going in general. Stay safe, and rock on!
