At job interviews nobody asks you what your average grade was, they want to know where you've worked and what experience you've got.
Na razgovoru te nihče ne bo vprašal, kakšno si imel povprečje, ampak kaj si že delal in kakšne izkušnje imaš.
Promising workers get jobs earlier than unpromising ones.
Dober kader dobi prej službo kot pa slab kader.
The state should therefore design a system in which young people could gain more experience and get access to their first employment.
Država mora torej oblikovati sistem, da mladi dobijo čim več izkušenj in da se lažje vključijo v prvo zaposlitev.
In his words, young people do not have enough influence on social changes, particularly because of the fragmented population, and the young organised in the framework of progeny are usually already ‘contaminated' with the ideology of the dominant party:
Mladi imajo po njegovih besedah premajhen vpliv na družbene spremembe predvsem zaradi fragmentiranosti populacije, del, ki pa je organiziran v podmladke, pa je po večini že »kontaminiran« z ideologijo dominantne stranke:
“Throwing stones at the Parliament was a severe violation of the institution of demonstrations, it was abused by the student organisations.
»Kamenjanje parlamenta je bilo grobo kršenje mehanizma demonstracij, izrabljeno s strani študentskih organizacij.
Young people could strengthen their influence… We, the young, must step together - for instance, in connection with the law on mini jobs we should all get together and reach an agreement, and the main motive should be optimisation of action.
Mladi lahko svoj vpliv povečajo… Mladi moramo stopiti skupaj - npr. za zakon o malem delu bi se morali vsi sestati in se dogovoriti, glavni motiv pa bi moral biti optimizacija delovanja.
Young people are most frequently used for (someone else's) promotion.
Mladino se največkrat uporablja za lastno promocijo.
The state should listen more patiently, and young people should get better organised...”
Država bi morala poslušati bolj strpno, mladi pa bi se morali bolje organizirati…
Can you give me an example?
Lahko daš primer.
“Ehmm… for instance, 80 youth organisation representatives as a negotiating group.”
Hmm… na primer 80 predstavnikov mladinskih organizacij kot pogajalska skupina.
If there is any time left, he mostly plays tennis, but he stresses that he also follows politics in his spare time.
Davor meni, da ima prostega časa izjemno malo, saj mu večino časa in energije pobereta študij in delo v podmladku.
He says he has few friends, but “heaps of acquaintances”:
Če mu ga kaj ostane, se
Davor sees his professional future in an international company, where he would like to handle company management, finance, particularly those aspects related to state measures and the market situation:
»Prijatli so tisti, za katere se je v življenju pokazalo, da jim ni vseeno zate in te bodrijo, znanci pa ne posvečajo pretirane pozornosti, greš na kavo, a ne odpiraš neke globlje debate.
I'll start a family if I have time for children, and if there's no time, I won't have a family.”
Svojo poklicno prihodnost Davor vidi v mednarodnem podjetju, v katerem bi se najraje ukvarjal s poslovanjem podjetja, financami, predvsem z vidika ukrepov države in razmer na trgu:
“My greatest fear is that people might forget their values, not just the Hungarian minority, but everybody.”
»Osebno pa upam, da bom imel… ne ravno ženo, ampak odprto zvezo s partnerko.
This left a kind of mark in my thoughts… I accepted I'm here because I was ‘sent' here.
»Moj največji strah je, da bi pozabili na vrednote, pa ne le madžarska manjšina, ampak vsi.

14.14 Vali, 23 let, mlada predstavnica madžarske manjšine
“I remember little.
Otroštvo je Vali preživela v Dobrovniku:
Neither language was a problem, we spoke both.
Nikoli nam ni predstavljalo težav, da ne bi govorili kakega jezika, govorili smo vse.
I went to kindergarten in Dobrovnik.
Hodila sem v vrtec v Dobrovniku.
At home there were a lot of us... children, I mean.
Doma nas je bilo veliko… otrok mislim.
We had a good time, never any problems.
Imeli smo se fajn, nikoli ni bilo problema.
I have an older brother and two sisters.
Imam starejšega brata in dve sestri.
We have a small family business where both parents worked.
Doma imamo manjše družinsko podjetje, kjer sta bila zaposlena starša.
At eight they went to work, in the evening they came back, well, their job was in the same courtyard, but we didn't see them, Grandpa and Grandma looked after us and raised us.
Ob osmih sta šla starša delat, zvečer sta se vrnila, sicer na istem dvorišču, ampak se nismo videli, pazila sta nas dedek in babica, ki sta nas tudi vzgajala.
This was great, because on the one hand our parents couldn't handle everything, and on the other it was pleasant with my grandparents, we talked a lot, they told us countless stories from their childhood, and we also talked about faith…”
To mi je bilo super, ker starši po eni strani niso mogli vsega prevzeti, po drugi strani pa je tudi s starejšimi užitek, veliko smo se pogovarjali, povedali so nam neskončno zgodb iz svojega otroštva, pa tudi o veri smo se pogovarjali…«
After finishing the bilingual primary school in Dobrovnik, Vali enrolled in a monolingual secondary school in Murska Sobota:
Po končani osnovni dvojezični osnovni šoli v Dobrovniku se je vpisala na enojezično srednjo šolo v Murski Soboti:
But to most people this was interesting, and when we said something in Hungarian, they totally laughed…”
Večini pa je bilo to zanimivo, in ko sva kaj povedali po madžarsko, so se totalno režali…«
“I happened to be in a class in which nobody was from Murska Sobota, we all came from other places, it was good and we got along well.
»Bili smo ravno tisti razred, v katerem nihče ni bil iz Murske Sobote, vsi smo bili od drugod in bilo nam je dobro in lepo smo se razumeli.
Many students came from Prlekija, and when they spoke, we laughed, when we spoke, they laughed… but we were always tolerant of each other.”
Bilo je tudi veliko Prlekov, in ko so oni govorili, smo se mi režali, ko smo mi govorili, so se oni režali… bili pa smo vedno tolerantni drug do drugega.
As a turning point in her life she singled out a traffic accident in which she was seriously injured.
Kot prelomni trenutek iz tega obdobja svojega življenja je Vali opisala prometno nesrečo, v kateri je bila huje poškodovana.
She believes that the accident in a major way contributed to her decision to return to Dobrovnik:
Meni, da je nesreča pomembno vplivala na njeno odločitev, da se vrne domov v Dobrovnik:
“… Everything happens for a reason, and the accident affected my life, but I don't see it as some kind of disaster.
»… vse se dogaja z razlogom in nesreča je vplivala na moje življenje, ampak to ne jemljem kot neko katastrofo.
A few things changed, but it was positive.
Nekaj stvari se je sicer spremenilo, je pa to pozitivno.
Like, I always wanted to be a lawyer, but when that happened I totally changed direction.
Vedno sem na primer hotela biti pravnica, ko pa se je to zgodilo, sem se v celoti preusmerila v drugo smer.
That faculty wouldn't have been good for me.”
Na tistem faksu ne bi bilo dobro za mene.
At first she was involved in public work in the ethnographical museum in Dobrovnik, where she took part in the handicraft workshop, gingerbread baking, making straw products and crocheting.
Najprej je v Dobrovniku delala prek javnih del v etnografskem muzeju, kjer je sodelovala pri delavnicah izdelkov iz ličja, peki medenjakov, izdelovanju izdelkov iz slame in kvačkanju.
She also attended numerous ethnographic camps, where participants took part in renovating the building that houses the museum.
Udeležila se je tudi številnih etnografskih taborov, udeleženci katerih so sodelovali pri restavriranju hiše, v kateri je danes muzej:
“During the project we were collecting artefacts that are now on display in the museum.
»Predmete, ki so danes tam razstavljeni, smo mi v projektu zbirali.
At the same time we were also collecting the related stories.
Hkrati s tem smo zbirali tudi zgodbe, ki so s tem povezane.
Older people told us everything so we could reconstruct the articles and events, and then put them on display in the museum.
Starejši so nam vse povedali, tako da smo lahko izvedli rekonstrukcijo predmetov in dogodkov in jih potem razstavili v muzeju.
As there was a great deal of work in the family business at the time, Vali had to limit her activities in the museum and dedicate herself to work at home.
Ker je bilo v tem času v domačem podjetju veliko dela, je morala svoje dejavnosti v muzeju omejiti in se posvetiti delu doma.
In the family business she does administrative tasks and also takes care of HRM issues.
V domačem podjetju opravlja pisarniška dela, skrbi pa tudi za kadrovske zadeve.
This job is also where she sees herself in the future.
Na tem delovnem mestu se vidi tudi v prihodnosti.
Social inclusion in the home environment is also reflected in her extensive primary social network:
Socialna vključenost v domače okolje se kaže tudi v razvejanosti njene primarne socialne mreže:
“My boyfriend tells me off for always jumping up when somebody calls.
»Fant mi očita, da vedno, ko me kdo pokliče, takoj skočim.
I have many friends, but few true friends.
Prijateljev imam veliko, pravih prijateljev pa je le malo.
True friends are those I can talk to about serious things, about life, private life, they're mostly from the Hungarian minority, 90 percent of them.
Pravi prijatelji so tisti, s katerimi se pogovarjam o resnih stvareh, o življenju, zasebnem življenju, po večini pa so to predstavniki madžarske manjšine, v 90 odstotkih.
“If I talk to a Slovenian, I can't discuss such personal matters.
Če se pogovarjam s Slovencem, se o takih stvareh ne morem pogovarjati.
I often hear, What do you want, you Hungarians, you live in Slovenia!
Velikokrat mi rečejo, kaj bi radi vi Madžari, v Sloveniji živite.
I feel angry.
Ob tem čutim jezo.
If I think that Prekmurje used to be part of Hungary, it's not our fault we were annexed to Slovenia… I don't feel my home country is anywhere else but here.
Če pomislim, je Prekmurje včasih bil madžarski del, nismo mi krivi, da so nas k Sloveniji priključili… Sama ne čutim, da je moja matična država nekje drugje.
Neither do I feel any real border.
Niti prave meje ne čutim.
I'm not saying I'd like to live in Hungary.”
Ne pravim, da bi rada živela na Madžarskem.
What does it mean to be a minority?
Kaj to pomeni biti manjšina?
“This often sounds like something bad, pejorative… like, there are those big Slovenians and us, a tiny group.
To velikokrat zveni kot nekaj slabega, zelo slabšalno… so eni veliki Slovenci in mi mali, ki so nas nekam postavili.
But I'm very proud of living in Slovenia and being a Hungarian.
Sem pa zelo ponosna na to, da živim v Sloveniji in da sem Madžarka.
I'm proud of both.
Ponosna sem na oboje.
If they ask me what I am, I say I'm Hungarian by nationality, and I feel very good.
Če me vprašajo, kaj sem, povem, da sem po narodnosti Madžarka, in počutim se zelo dobro.
I consider it a major advantage, and I never felt inferior or superior, like, see, I know Hungarian.
Zame je to velik plus in nikoli nisem razmišljala, da sem kaj manj, pa tudi več ne, češ, da znam madžarsko.
I feel a kind of contentment.”
Čutim neko zadovoljstvo.
Why this hostile attitude towards the minority?
Odkod sovražna naperjenost do manjšine?
“I think Slovenians are envious of us… They envy us our rich history and the fact that we Hungarians are a bigger nation than the Slovenians.
Mislim, da nam Slovenci zavidajo… Zavidajo nam bogato zgodovino in to, da smo večje ljudstvo, Madžari, kot Slovenci.
Slovenians are in fact made up of parts of other nations… Plus, whatever is foreign is alien.
Slovenci so v bistvu po večini sestavljeni iz delov ostalih narodov… Pa tudi to, da vse, kar je drugo, je tuje.
But there aren't that many such people.
Sicer pa takih ljudi ni veliko.
I think they have a problem with the fact that we're proud and that we clearly show our pride.
Po mojem imajo problem s tem, da smo ponosni in da to jasno pokažemo.
In her words, faith is one of the basic keys to her happiness:
Vera je po njenih besedah eden od osnovnih ključev do njene sreče:
“I'm a true believer.
»Sem zelo verna.
I'm a Christian, we were taught that at home… for me, not only the material aspects of life are important, my spiritual life is also very important.
Sem krščanske vere, že doma so nas tako učili… za mene ni pomembna samo materialna stran življenja, pomembno mi je tudi moje duhovno življenje.
My soul is important, and what I feel.
Pomembna mi je moja duša in tisto, kar jaz čutim.
I believe that we live for a certain purpose, that we were sent here and no one is here just like that.
Verujem v to, da živimo z nekim namenom, da smo bili sem poslani in nihče ni tukaj kar tako.
When we accomplish our task, we die and enter some other body.
Ko dosežemo svojo nalogo, umremo in gremo v neko drugo telo.
I believe that souls transmigrate.
Verujem v to, da se duše preselijo.
We go to a higher level, particularly in order to correct the errors from previous lives and to perfect ourselves.
Stopimo na višjo raven, predvsem da popravimo napake iz prejšnjih življenj in se izpopolnimo.
This belief enables me a better life.
To mišljenje mi omogoča boljše življenje.
When I talk to them I can feel how good it is that I think differently.
Ljudje moramo verovati v nekaj večjega od nas, imet moramo upanje.
In Vali's words, the attitude towards the young in Slovenia is specific; on the one hand young people are considered the future of society, and on the other they are not allowed to fully develop their potential:
Po besedah Vali je odnos do mladih v Sloveniji svojstven; po eni strani mlade dojemajo kot prihodnost družbe, hkrati s tem pa se jim ne omogoči, da bi svoje zmožnosti v celoti razvili:
“In general I think older people drive us too hard.
»Na kratko pa mislim, da nas starejši preveč forsirajo.
At school, for instance, they fill our head with nonsense instead of preparing us for life.
V šoli nam recimo polnijo glave z brezveznimi stvarmi, namesto, da bi nas pripravili za življenje.
And they don't give us the feeling that we could survive in life.
Niti nam ne dajejo občutka, da bi mladi lahko v življenju obstali.
On the one hand they let us live with our parents… and on the other they don't let us have our own life.
Po eni strani nam dovoljujejo, da živimo pri starših… po drugi strani pa nam ne dovolijo, da bi imeli svoje življenje.
And yet on the other hand, they force older people to work until they're 65, although they can't do it either physically or psychologically, and at the same time there are no jobs for the young.
Po drugi strani pa tudi starejše silijo, da delajo do 65. leta, čeprav tega fizično in psihično več ne zmorejo, hkrati pa za mlade ni dela.
And then they wonder why young people are unemployed, why they don't become independent and why they don't have their own families and children.
Potem pa še sprašujejo, zakaj mladi nimajo dela, zakaj se ne osamosvojijo in zakaj nimajo svojih otrok in družin.
Who of us young people can afford to have a family nowadays?”
Kdo pa si lahko privošči svojo družino od mladih danes?
Is it any different within the Hungarian minority?
Je med madžarsko manjšino kaj drugače?
“The Hungarian minority takes better care of their young.
Madžarska manjšina bolj čuva svoje mlade.
For instance, this can be seen in the upbringing and tradition and history they're passing on to us.
To se vidi na primer v vzgoji in v tradiciji in zgodovini, ki nam jo predajajo.
We stick together more, and because we're few, we look after each other more.
Bolj držimo skupaj in ravno zato, ker nas je manj, bolj pazimo drug na drugega.
We young people within the minority listen to our elders and take on more from them.
Mladi v manjšini predvsem več poslušamo starejše in več od njih prevzamemo.
There are also more cooperation programmes and projects than among the Slovenians.
Več je tudi programov in projektov sodelovanja kot pa pri Slovencih.
In Vali's words, the future of the young is not bright, but she hopes things will change soon.
Prihodnost mladine po njenih besedah ni svetla, upa pa, da se bo kaj kmalu spremenilo.
The main culprit for this situation is the relationship between the young and the wider society, and above all with adults.
Glavni krivec za take razmere je prav odnos med mladimi in širšo družbo, predvsem pa odraslimi.
What is missing in this rela tionship is mutual respect, and until this is corrected, she sees no way out of the crisis:
Tisto, kar v odnosu manjka, je vzajemno spoštovanje, in dokler se to ne popravi, izhoda iz družbene krize ne vidi:
“In the seventh grade I had my ﬁ rst contact with drugs.”
»V sedmem razredu sem prišel do prvega stika z drogo.
Sometimes perhaps a little indecisive…”
Včasih mogoče malo neodločen…«
Grega describes himself as somebody growing up in unfavourable circumstances.
Grega zase pravi, da je odraščal v neprimernih razmerah:
“It was difficult, my mum was a single mother and very stressed out… she treated me and my elder sister badly, beat us and did other terrible things to us.
»Neprimerne so bile, ker je mama bila samohranilka in zelo živčna… grdo je delala z mano in starejšo sestro, pretepala in izvajala druga grozna dejanja.
Say she didn't like something, she immediately took it out on me and my sister.
Recimo, da ji nekaj ni bilo všeč, je takoj obračunavala z nama s sestro.
His mother's violent behaviour was also the main reason for the family breakup.
Mamino nasilno vedenje je bilo tudi glavni razlog za razpad družine.
Grega's mother was also violent towards his father, and after two years of torture he left her, took all his belongings and moved back to his mother.
Gregova mama je bila namreč nasilna tudi do njegovega očeta in po dveh letih trpinčenja jo je zapustil z vsem svojim premoženjem ter se preselil nazaj k svoji mami.
When Grega was 10, his mother met her new partner, with whom Grega immediately found a common language:
Ko je bil Grega star 10 let, je mama spoznala novega partnerja in z Grego sta se takoj ujela:
“… I experienced a double upbringing.
» … izkušal sem dvojno vzgojo.
Mother didn't let me do anything, and stepfather allowed a great deal, Mum was never home, she worked 12 hours, and stepfather was home a lot and always available.
Mama ni dovolila nič, očim pa veliko, mame ni bilo nikoli doma, bila je po 12 ur v službi, očim pa je bil veliko doma in vedno na voljo.
The divorce affected the family atmosphere quite favourably, but other problems emerged:
Ločitev je sicer dokaj dobro vplivala na družinsko ozračje, so se pa začele pojavljati težave drugje:
“Because of the double upbringing I allowed myself a lot.
»Zaradi dvojne vzgoje sem si tudi veliko dovolil.
Earlier on, before my stepfather came, I was a totally good pupil, but then in the third or fourth grade there was a turning point… I simply joined a totally different crowd - a lot of alcohol and cigarettes, shoplifting, I started going to matches with fans, which had an additional negative influence.
Prej, preden je očim prišel, sem bil totalno dober učenec, potem pa je v tretjem razredu ali pa četrtem prišlo do prelomnice… Pač zapadel sem v čisto drugo družbo - veliko alkohola in cigaret, kraje po trgovinah, začel sem hodit z navijači na tekme, kar je še negativno okrepilo vse skupaj.
In the seventh grade I had my first contact with drugs.
V sedmem razredu sem prišel do prvega stika z drogo.
At first I was totally against it and I didn't like the stuff.
Najprej sem bil ful proti in mi ni bilo všeč.
And then, from the seventh grade on… that is from my 12th to 24th year, just weed and nothing else.
Potem pa od nekje sedmega razreda… to je od kakega 12. pa do 24. leta, samo trava in nič drugega.
I somehow still managed to finish primary school.
Nekak sem vseeno sfural osnovno šolo.
Then I enrolled in the catering school, I've always liked cooking.
Potem sem se vpisal na gostinsko šolo, ker me je poklic kuharja že od nekdaj veselil.
But there I met an even worse crowd and everything went from bad to worse.
Tam sem padel pa še v slabšo družbo in moja osnovna družba je to še dodatno negativno okrepila.
I finished the first two years, and in the third year I split.”
Prva dva letnika sem zvozil, tretjega pa sem pustil.
“… drugs every day.
»…droge vsak dan.
I went to work with my stepfather, and the whole day I didn't speak a word with him or anybody else.
Hodil sem v službo z očimom in v celem dnevu nisem z njim niti s kom drugim na delu spregovoril besede.
I totally closed up.
Čisto sem se zaprl vase.
I was totally closed up and was just chewing over things within.
Totalno sem se zaprl in v sebi tuhtal in bluzil.
What was your day like in those times?
Kako je bil videti tvoj dan v tistih časih?
“In the morning I went to work with my stepdad, for instance.
Z očimom sem na primer šel zjutraj delat.
At work, too, we couldn't stand each other, but as I'm a workaholic and like working, this was a problem for me.
Tudi na delu se nisva mogla, ker pa sem deloholik in rad delam, sem imel s tem probleme.
We didn't get along, and as I sometimes had a joint before work, it was even worse.
Nisva se mogla, pa ker sem še pred delom kaj skadil, je bilo še hujše.
And at homea joint right away, shower and to my catacomb (room).
Doma pa takoj đola (zvitki kanabisa), tuš in v svojo katakombo (sobo).
I wasn't listed at the employment (employment service) or at the health (Health Insurance Institute of Slovenia), I was a true illegal in Slovenia, I didn't exist anywhere any more.
Niti na borzi (borza dela) niti na zdravstvenem (ZZZS) se nisem prijavil, bil sem pravi ilegalec v Sloveniji, nikjer več nisem obstajal.
Grega sees that most of his life problems are the result of his broken family.
Pomemben razlog za svoje življenjske težave vidi Grega v razpadli družini.
And in his words, his mother was most to blame:
Glavni krivec za to pa naj bi bila mama:
“Mum was twofaced towards everybody, even towards my half-sister (Grega's stepfather's daughter).
»Mama je bila hinavska do vseh, tudi do moje polsestre (hčerke Gregovega očima).
For instance, I was going to school, but she didn't help me in any way, either with money or support.
Šel sem recimo v šolo, pa mi ni z ničemer pomagala, niti z dnarejm niti s podporo.
My half-sister too couldn't accept her.
Tudi polsestra je ni mogla sprejet.
There was no relationship, like we were strangers.
Odnosa ni bilo nobenega, kot da smo tujci.
She quarrelled with everybody, with my stepdad, too, after seven years of marriage.
Kregala se je z vsemi, tudi z očimom, po sedmih let zakona.
They spent the money and invested some in Zdenex and totally lost everything.
Denar sta porabila, nekaj pa naložila v Zdenex in do konca popušila.
Stepdad then paid her out and she moved away, but I stayed with him because I still thought we had an OK relationship.
Očim jo je potem izplačal in mama se je odselila, jaz pa sem ostal pri očimu, ker mislim, da sma imela še vedno vredu odnos.
Although he's quite arrogant and a bit aloof.
Kljub temu, da je dokaj aroganten in nekoliko vzvišen.
Otherwise he's much better than my mother, and I also get along with my halfsister.
Drugače pa je veliko boljši od mame, pa tudi s polsestro se dobro razumem.
Mother moved out, ‘cause none of us could stand her.
Mama se je odselila, ker je nobeden ni mogel.
Then there was peace in the house, no shouting.
Potem je bil mir v hiši, nobenega dretja.
When Grega's family problems were at least partially solved, he slowly started putting his life in order:
Z vsaj delno rešenimi družinskimi težavami je Grega začel počasi urejati tudi svoje življenje:
“When I got acquainted with spirituality, I immediately quit smoking weed, after nine years… I opened up, started feeling my emotions, opened up to people and the world.
»Ko sem spoznal duhovnost, sem travo takoj pustil, po devetih letih kajenja… Odprl sem se, začutil svoja čustva in se odprl do ljudi in sveta.
I became sensitive.
Postal sem dovzeten.
Now we function very well.
Zdaj zelo dobro funkcioniramo.
“When I got involved in spirituality, I felt progress.
»Ko sem se začel ukvarjati z duhovnostjo, sem začutil napredek.
I felt total energy and a strong need to do something with my life.
Začutil sem totalno energijo in začutil sem močno potrebo, da nekaj naredim iz svojega življenja.
