»This summer I am going to get an unlimited contract, as I work at an international company. Everybody is affected by the crisis, I have just been lucky to have found this job in good time. Many of my friends cannot travel anymore or make any further plans. I feel that people have become more supportive of each other, as well as more creative, e.g. they now exchange guitar lessons for language lessons etc.
I perceive the crisis within a global context as something happening due to the banking system and politics. I have some friends in Germany, earning more money for a similar job to mine, but I would rather stay near my family. What I am really lacking is being acknowledged and respected for my work.«
