In Chinese society, for example, when things were busy down on the farm, people went into the fields. And during slack times, they would take odd jobs, weave, raise silkworms, or whatever. When necessary, people have long been able to adapt and change their jobs.
就像中國傳統社會裡，農忙時下田，農閒時就去打打零工、或是編織、養蠶等，工作是可以自我調節而且有變化的。
