Google Job Search Description is missing the breakline character

While using the Google Job SearchAPI the job description property sometimes returns a single line string, and other times a string with breakline chars

Hi Darwin Jimenez The
description
field is completely dependent on the listing of the job based on the HTML element. If the listing is one long string that is what we scrape, if there are breakline chars, we scrape that. We do not manipulate the data.
