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 .
