A dishwasher woman has taken the Internet by storm as she arrives to work at a restaurant located in Sichuan Province, China, in a luxury car.

According to a report by China Times, the woman’s daughter picks her up and drops her off at her workplace in her Bentley car. It is reported that the woman comes from a wealthy family and wants to work to ease her boredom of being cooped up at home.

Despite the laborious nature of her line of work, the woman added that she feels “uncomfortable” if she does goes a day without working at the restaurant.

In a short clip posted on Chinese social media platform, Weibo, the woman, stepping out of the Bentley car wearing her work attire complete with an apron and rubber boots, looks eager to start her shift of washing dishes and cleaning up the restaurant.

Netizens admired the woman’s desire to work and commended her ability to work in a labour intensive line despite having abundant resources to live a comfortable life without working.

“Her mentality towards working hard is really good,” a netizen praised.

“This is how rich people spend their time experiencing life,” a netizen pointed out jokingly.
