《English Translation》

黄刚: 小花, have you noticed that the domestic service industry today is very different from what we used to imagine? Many young people and even highly educated individuals are now working in domestic services.
陈花: Yes, I saw the news too. Jobs like pet caretakers and child companions sound very professional. This shows that the domestic service industry is becoming more specialized.
黄刚: Exactly. For example, there’s a pet caretaker who studied animal husbandry and veterinary medicine and even interned at a pet hospital, which makes them highly trusted by clients. This kind of service is not something a traditional 'nanny' could offer.
陈花: These young people are quite innovative, combining their interests with work, earning money, and achieving personal value. But I’ve also seen people say that it’s a 'waste of talent' for highly educated individuals to work in domestic services.
黄刚: That’s actually an outdated mindset. The domestic service industry has shifted from being labor-intensive to knowledge-intensive. For instance, professional organizers need to understand space design and have knowledge of psychology to help clients solve their lifestyle problems.
陈花: That makes a lot of sense. In fact, any industry that can be professionalized can bring social value. The fact that the domestic service industry is becoming younger and more highly skilled makes more people willing to use these services.
黄刚: Exactly. This shows that there’s no hierarchy among professions; it’s all about how we perceive them. As long as you work with dedication, you can change people’s perceptions of an industry and contribute to societal progress.
陈花: Well said! The fact that the domestic service industry is becoming a new option for young people shows that our society is becoming more diverse. I hope these emerging professions continue to grow!
