A woman has to do what a woman has to do: take care of her family. This woman has a very interesting job. She takes orders from people of how much bread they want and waits in line in front of subsidized bakeries until they release the new batch of bread. People who can afford it, don't waist their time, but others who can't afford expensive bread have no other choice, but to stand in line for hours to get their share. Then there are those who are in between, and here is where our woman's story fits. With no one to take care of her little daughter and for few extra dimes, she sacrifices her time and stands in line. She fills up the order of bread and resells it for a small commission.
This photograph was taken of her either walking away from the bakery or as she was delivering the bread to her customers. After what she had gone through she still had a smile on her face.
My sincere respect to her and her likes for what they go through to support their families.
