Woman gets job after putting 'self up for sale'

SHANGHAI: A woman who lost her job because of the financial crisis has found a new one by putting "herself up for sale" on an online auction site.

The 23-year-old woman got a job for a monthly pay of 3,000 yuan ($436). She used the false name of tony615_2007 to "post herself" on Taobao.com's website on Nov 18, she told China Daily during an online chat yesterday.

A dozen of companies contacted her and one of them is expected to sign a contract with her today, she said.
