Hiring robots

Greetings,

My friend in China asked me to send you this, these words. They were carved on stone with her tears. This means it took years of tears. Stone and water.

She attends a private business university in Fujian. She is home now for the summer and, like millions of other students, looking for work. She needs work experience so she can get a real job in the all-too-real future. It's really tough because most employers don't want to hire part-time educated and motivated people.

They want long term exploitable cheap labor provided by the uneducated masses.
They want robots.
They want factory drones.

Her future is uncertain. This is one thing she knows and she didn't learn it in a class tomb.

Peace.
