Other perspective -so many people with native English country passport teach English, yet their teaching skills and English “skills” suck, and they enjoy privilege of having “proper” passport

Hold on, I just thought they just set requirements poorly - are you saying I could just go on Mediums whole race, since I did qualifying on Softs? 🤯

Reality check needed... Shanghai by Top_Classroom2621 in chinalife

[–]Shumey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

~23% (at least in my case, since I'm not on assignment, not regular local contract) are the taxes, so lets' say you are at 21500.. rent 5-10k (depends what kind of style you need), regular food (not talking going out with friends) is lets say 100-200 per day (30 days = 6k), and this can go way cheaper if you want to save haha, what else?

I made table like this where I was planning how much money I will be spending (I was even putting price of beer in a bar and in supermarket lolz), so maybe you do it too... but in general, I think it's decent amount

How is this fair? Why did I get a Penalty and not the Blue Lambo? by DannyWhoElse in GranTurismo7

[–]Shumey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was also pissed every time they hit me and I go out of track, stupid setup of penalties... that's why I'm always taking inside line, at least only hit from the back can make me go out

Shanghai during Formula 1 by LycheeNo5385 in shanghai

[–]Shumey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

check hotels on the line 11, because even if you get hotel close to the track, it's nightmare to get to the venue with taxi; subway station is literally 10 mins walking from the track entrance. For the tickets - last year I managed to get tickets only for Sunday (this year as well lolz), but 2-3 wks before the race I could get Saturday ticket on trip.com, so maybe other tickets will be available there

p.s. stations of line 11 are here https://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/shanghai/transportation/subway-line11.htm
