Q: Is breaking a front tooth the same as loosing face ?

Lets say you are bent out of your mind, fall and the ole choppers encounter some of that nice Chinese concrete. Have you lost face ?

Lets say you are completely sober but slip on a pee soaked marble floor in a rest room in a fancy new mall, and the grill gets bashed out as it forcefully scrapes off the top layer of footprints from the ass gasket. Have you then lost face ?

OP, is this post due to the other post about losing teeth ? or mere coincidence ? Did you sit back and ponder the possible relationship/cause and effect/ action-reaction of losing a tooth or teeth and losing face ?

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A: Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
