I sorted out social insurance and applied for relief.
Uredil sem si socialno zavarovanje in se prijavil za podporo.
They also told me about PUM (Programme for Young Dropouts at the Institute of Adult Education), and I liked it immediately.
Tam so mi povedali tudi za PUM (program za mlade osipnike Andragoškega centra Slovenije) in takoj mi je bilo všeč.
I'm not ready to get a job right away, I must find my rhythm.
Nisem še pripravljen, da bi šel takoj v službo, ujeti moram ritem.
I have great ambitions… for example, I'd like to finish school and continue my education.
Ambicije imam velike… recimo, da bi končal šolo in šel v nadaljevalni program.
And then higher catering school.
Potem pa še višjo gostinsko.
But I'm also interested in other things.
Me pa tudi veliko drugih stvari veseli.
For instance, I like painting, music, anything to do with art, with nature, with animals…”
Veseli me na primer slikanje, glasba, vse, kar je povezano z umetnostjo, z naravo, z živalmi…«
Grega believes he is on the right path and sees his future as extremely bright:

14.16 Maja, 30, unemployed gra duate
14.16 Maja, 30 let, brezposelna diplomantka
Maja was born in Jesenice; her mother and father moved back home to Prekmurje, erected a house and settled down.
Maja je bila rojena na Jesenicah, mama in oče sta se preselila domov v Prekmurje, zgradila hišo in se ustalila.
Maja spent her childhood and primary-school years in Gaberje near Lendava, and then enrolled in a bilingual secondary school in Lendava.
Maja je preživela otroštvo in obdobje osnovne šole v Gaberju pri Lendavi, potem pa se je vpisala na dvojezično srednjo šolo v Lendavi.
After secondary school she decided to study at a higher education school in Murska Sobota:
Po končani srednji šoli se je odločila za študij na visoki šoli v Murski Soboti:
“I graduated in 2005, and couldn't find a job for a year.
»2005 sem diplomirala in eno leto nisem dobila službe.
Then I enrolled in ecological textile and graduated this year (2010)… with a big problem, since I did research at the faculty for a whole year for free, and the whole thing dragged on.
Potem sem se vpisala na ekotekstil in diplomirala letos (2010)… z veliko težavo, saj sem eno celo leto na faksu zastonj delala raziskave, vse skupaj pa se je zavleklo.
When I got to the faculty, they
Ko sem prišla na faks, so nam govorili, da imamo
were telling us we had the possibility of employment and promotion, but it all went down the drain.
možnost zaposlitve in napredovanja, pa je vse padlo v vodo.
Maja went to the Employment Agency:
Maja se je prijavila na zavod za zaposlovanje:
“They sent me to various education programmes, supposedly so I would have better chances of employment.
»Pošiljali so me na različna izobraževanja, ker naj bi tako dobila večjo možnost za zaposlitev.
Even before graduating I was sending out lots of applications, 14 applications a month, I was full of hope.
Sicer pa sem že pred diplomo pošiljala veliko prošenj, 14 prošenj na mesec, bila sem polna upanja.
But nothing happened.
Zgodilo se ni nič.
From all the applications I received only one invitation to an interview, in Ljubljana, on 1st April.
Od vseh prošenj sem dobila le eno vabilo na razgovor, in to v Ljubljani na prvi april.
I went to the interview, but they didn't tell me what my chances for employment were.
Na razgovoru sem sicer bila, niso mi pa povedali, kakšne so moje možnosti za zaposlitev.
It was all like the Farm reality show - first round, second round, third round… And then they made the selection.
Vse skupaj je bilo podobno reality showu Kmetija, prvi krog, drugi krog, tretji krog… In potem izberejo.
After the interview the woman said to me, good luck with graduation, and I immediately knew they wouldn't take me on.
Po razgovoru mi je rekla, veliko sreče pri diplomi, in takoj sem vedela, da nisem sprejeta.
And then I though what it would be like if they told me only after the third round… I paid for all the travel expenses.
Potem sem si še mislila, kako bi bilo, če bi mi še po tretjem krogu povedali, da nisem sprejeta… Plačala sem vse te potne stroške.
Many people didn't go to the Employment Agency, they say they give them a hard time and make them write applications.
Veliko ljudi se ni prijavilo na zavod, ker pravijo, da jim tam težijo in da morajo pisati prošnje.
For me personally, that's not a problem.
Meni osebno to ni problem.
Hey, in 2003 I went to Germany to do practical work for 6 months, and if I hadn't needed a permit, I'd have stayed there.”
Glej, 2003 sem šla v Nemčijo na prakso za 6 mesecev, če ne bi bilo vize, bi kar ostala tam.
She also has a younger sister facing similar problems.
Ima tudi mlajšo sestro, ki se spopada s podobnimi težavami:
“My sister, she's 26 years old, she's graduated and is getting ready to go work in Portugal.
»Sestra, stara je 26 let, je diplomirala in se odpravlja v službo na Portugalsko.
She said, Fuck off Slovenia, and is going.
Rekla je fuck off Slovenija in gre.
She worked as a volunteer in Portugal and got a work permit.
Delala je prostovoljsko delo na Portugalskem in tam je dobila delovno vizo.
She went to the embassy and they told her that a Slovenian was needed someplace; she never thought of not going.
Šla je na ambasado in tam so ji povedali, da nekje rabijo Slovenko, in sploh ni premišljevala, da ne bi šla.
I totally envy her… and am totally happy for her.”
Totalno ji zavidam… in privoščim.
At the moment her father receives welfare, and her mother lives on a disability pension.
Oče je trenutno na socialni podpori, mama pa živi od invalidske pokojnine.
“Now life is what it is.
»Življenje zdaj je pač takšno, kot je.
You have to accept whatever comes your way.
Sprejeti moraš vse, kar se ti ponudi.
The employment agency is sending me job offers.
Ponudbe za delo mi pošilja zavod za zaposlovanje.
My mum always told me, study, so you won't end up a cleaner.
Mama mi je vedno govorila, uči se, da ne boš čistilka.
Now I see it might be better if I was a cleaner.
Zdaj pa vidim, da bi bilo mogoče boljše, če bi bila čistilka.
You do your job and then go home.
Delaš svoje delo in potem greš domov.
You don't take work home like an engineer, and in my opinion there's no big difference in the salary.”
Dela ne nosiš domov, kot kak inžinjer, plače pa se po mojem ne razlikujejo tako močno.
Not having a job seriously affects her attitude towards her family.
To, da nima službe, močno vpliva na njen odnos do lastne družine.
She can't even think of having children, for she has no possibility of starting a family.
O otrocih ne more niti razmišljati, saj nima možnosti za oblikovanje družine.
In her opinion, society will soon be divided into two social strata: the rich with many children, and the poor without children, while the middle class will die out.
Po njenem mnenju bosta v družbi nastala dva sloja, bogat, ki bo imel veliko otrok, in reven, ki ne bo imel otrok, srednji sloj pa bo izumrl.
She says she can hardly keep her head above water.
Sama pravi, da se komaj drži nad vodo.
She lives on benefit:
Preživlja se s pomočjo socialne podpore:
“I drive an old Renault 5, which I can hardly maintain with the benefit money.
»Vozim se s staro petko, ki jo s socialno komaj vzdržujem.
My parents help me a great deal.
V veliki meri mi pomagajo starši.
I'm tied to the Employment Agency, and I'm not allowed to moonlight.”
Vezana sem na zavod, delati pa na črno ne smem.
She occasionally does small household chores for friends and acquaintances, for which they give her “voluntary contributions”.
Občasno pri prijateljih in znancih opravlja kakšna manjša gospodinjska dela, za katera dobiva prostovoljni prispevek.
She says she knows a lot of good people who help her:
Pravi, da pozna veliko dobrih ljudi, ki ji pomagajo:
“... some with contributions, others with letting me stay the night.
»… eni s prispevki, drugi s prenočiščem.
These are mostly people who were once in a similar situation… or still are.
To so po večini ljudje, ki so tudi sami bili v taki situaciji… ali pa so še.
Some manager's daughter would never say that to me.
Kaka direktorjeva hčerka mi tega nikoli ne bi rekla.
I have to be resourceful.
Znajti se moram.
Everything's at a minimum.
Vse je na minimumu.
You can spend the benefit in five days, just on basic costs.
Socialno lahko porabiš v petih dneh, samo za osnovne stroške.
I'd never make it without my parents.
Brez staršev mi ne bi uspelo.
Plus, Prekmurje's not a good environment for looking for a job.”
Zraven tega pa tudi v Prekmurju ni ugodno okolje za iskanje službe.
She is aware that she's hardworking, adaptable and capable of learning anything:
Svoj položaj razume Maja kot izjemno resen in stresen, nikakor pa ne kot tragičen.
I felt class discrimination particularly strongly… although I studied hard I was getting bad grades… I had to strive even harder for higher grades.”
Razredno diskriminacijo sem občutila kot izjemno močno… kljub temu, da sem se učila, sem dobila slabe ocene… morala sem se bolj potegovati za višje ocene.
“If I had a job, I'd have more money, I could go places, to fitness or aerobics - it's not just a hobby, it's socialising.
»Če bi imela službo, bi imela več denarja in bi lahko kam šla, na fitnes ali pa aerobiko - to ni le hobi, ampak druženje z ljudmi.
I'd do all sorts of things, I'd like to know how to crochet, handiwork, I'd like to know everything and do everything.
Ukvarjali bi se z veliko stvarmi, rada bi znala kvačkat, ročna dela, vse bi rada vedela in z vsem bi se rada ukvarjala.
In Maja's opinion the situation regarding youth employment in Slovenia is extremely bad.
Sicer pa je po Majinem mnenju stanje zaposlovanja mladih v Sloveniji izjemno slabo.
According to her, the greatest problem is an unbalanced demand for workers in the labour market:
Največja težava je po njenih besedah nesorazmerno povpraševanje po kadrih, ki so na trgu delovne sile:
“The young in Slovenia don't have a chance.
»Mladi v Sloveniji nimajo možnosti.
In Austria, for instance, you can't afford to exploit people, politics won't allow it.
V Avstriji si na primer ne moreš privoščiti, da bi izkoriščal ljudi, ker politika tega ne dovoli.
But here many companies survive by taking advantage of the small people.”
Pri nas pa veliko podjetij preživi ravno na račun teh malih ljudi.
“Here, nothing.
Pri nas nikakor.
Everyone should go abroad and let the capitalists in Slovenia be ruined.”
Vsi ljudje bi morali oditi v tujino in pustiti kapitaliste v Sloveniji, da propadejo.
In her words, the future brings no relief:
Za mlade je po Majinem mnenju tisto najpomembnejše, kar zaposlitev prinaša, varnost.
“I think it'll get worse.
Po njenih besedah prihodnost ne prinaša nobenega olajšanja:
It might become like in the old days, when everybody was growing their own food in the garden.”
Mogoče bo, kot je bilo v starih časih, ko je vsak za sebe prideloval hrano na svojem vrtu.
Would that be good or bad?
Bi bilo to dobro ali slabo?
What are you really afraid of?
Česa te je v resnici strah?
“Well... in fact not that bad.
Pa… v bistvu ne bi bilo tako slabo.
I personally am afraid of debts, of getting stuck in debt, unable to climb out.
Mene osebno je strah dolgov, da bi zapadla v dolgove in da ne bi mogla več ven.
And if not, I'd like to go into eco-gardening.
Če pa bi, pa bi imela ekovrtnarstvo.
“… It's permanent employment, regular salary, we get the holiday bonus, Christmas bonus…”

14.17 Oto, 28, employed in a garage, young father
14.17 Oto, 28 let, zaposlen v mehanični delavnici, mladi oče
Oto was born near Maribor.
Oto se je rodil v okolici Maribora.
He attended kindergarten and primary school in Kamnica near Maribor; then after primary school he enrolled in a secondary vocational school and trained as a car mechanic.
Vrtec in osnovno šolo je obiskoval v Kamnici pri Mariboru, po končanem osnovnem izobraževanju pa se je vpisal na srednjo poklicno šolo in se izšolal za avtomehanika.
practical work he did 6 months of military service, and was unemployed for slightly over a year:
Po praksi je odslužil 6 mesecev vojaškega roka, potem pa je bil dobro leto brez zaposlitve:
“In those days I was idle… I moonlighted in garages, repaired cars at home and such… and then I got a job at Carglass and now I'm here.
»V tem času sem luftal… na črno delal na avtoservisih, doma šraufal aute pa to… potem sem se zaposlil pri Autosteklu in zdaj sem tam.
Then I got a child, got married…”
Potem sem dobil otroka, se poročil…«
He described his work day as very straining.
Svoj delovnik je opisal kot izjemno naporen.
Most of the week he does field work, and the job itself is stressful and involves a great deal of responsibility.
Velik del tedna preživi na terenu, delo pa je razmeroma odgovorno in stresno.
He must find the glass ordered in the warehouse, load it on a van, drive to the customer and replace it there.
Sam mora namreč v skladišču poiskati naročeno steklo, ga naložiti v kombi, se odpeljati do stranke in ga potem tudi zamenjati.
Nevertheless he says he's happy with the job.
Kljub temu pa pravi, da je z delom zadovoljen:
“Look, it's permanent employment, regular salary, we get the holiday bonus, Christmas bonus… I'm not complaining, a good firm.
»Glej, služba je za nedoločen čas, plača je redna, regres dobimo, dobimo tudi božičnico… ne pritožujem se, dobra firma.
For Oto, a regular job above all means security and a basis for starting a family.
Redna služba zanj pomeni predvsem varnost in osnovo za oblikovanje družine.
He believes that young people in Slovenia are hardworking and diligent, but are not given an opportunity for employment and therefore have problems starting a family.
Sam je mnenja, da so mladi v Sloveniji sicer delavni in pridni, vendar ne dobijo možnosti za zaposlitev in si zato težje oblikujejo lastno družino.
Oto claims that to a large extent it is up to an individual whether or not he or she is willing to make an effort in looking for a job, but the state should provide enough jobs accessible to young people.
Oto meni, da je sicer veliko odvisno od posameznika, ali si bo dovolj prizadeval zaposlitev, mora pa hkrati s tem država zagotoviti dovolj delovnih mest, ki bodo mladim dovolj dostopna.
Oto spends most of the day at work, but he nevertheless manages to find some time after work to be with his family, his wife Andreja and daughter Ines.
Večino dneva Oto sicer preživi na delu, vseeno pa mu uspe po službi najti še nekaj časa, ki ga preživi s svojo družino, ženo Andrejo in hčerko Ines.
In addition to his family, he is passionate about hunting:
Poleg družine je njegova velika strast tudi lovstvo:
“I owe my love of hunting to my dad; he's always been a hunter.
»Za lovstvo me je navdušil ata, ki je že vedno lovec.
He would take me along on hunting trips when I was a little boy… you simply grow up with this.
Že kot malega me je jemal na jago… rasteš pač s tem.
Now we go together… well, I sometimes go alone, but sometimes we go together.
Zdaj hodima skupaj… no, včasih grem sam, včasih pa grema skupaj.
Sometimes we buy some hunting equipment together, binoculars for night hunting or something.
Včasih tudi skupaj kupima kako opremo za lov, daljnogled za nočni lov al pa kaj podobnega.
But it's not just the hunt.
Ne gre pa samo za lov.
As a hunter you take care of the game, feed animals in winter, cull weak animals that couldn't survive in the wild…”
Kot lovec skrbiš za divjad, krmiš živali pozimi, odstreljuješ slabotno divjad, ki ne bi mogla preživet v naravi…«
He says he doesn't think much of his future, and is not too worried about survival.
Pravi, da o svoji prihodnosti ne razmišlja veliko, in preživetje ga preveč ne skrbi.
But something he knows for sure - Ines will not remain an only child.
Tisto, kar pa zagotovo ve, pa je, da ne bo ostalo samo pri hčerki Ines.
“… I'm not a shirker, I just hate having a job…”
»… nisem delomrznež, ampak službomrznež …«
14.18 Nejc, 26, reluctant employee
14.18 Nejc, 26 let, zaposlen po sili
Nejc comes from the vicinity of Maribor, where his family moved from the centre of the town.
Nejc prihaja iz okolice Maribora, kamor se je njegova družine preselila iz središča mesta.
He attended kindergarten and primary school in Malečnik near Maribor:
V Malečniku pri Mariboru je obiskoval vrtec in osnovno šolo:
“Then I went to grammar school.
»Potem sem šel na gimnazijo.
At that time my parents got a divorce, but it didn't affect me much.
V tem času sta se mi ločila starša, kar na mene ni zelo vplivalo.
I went to grammar school for 5 years, I repeated the second year… because of Latin.
Gimnazijo sem obiskoval 5 let, 2. letnik se ponavljal… zaradi latinščine.
If details are important, Latin was not to blame; when they replaced the teacher everything was OK.”
Če so že detajli važni, latinščina ni bila nič kriva, ko so menjali profesorja, je bilo vse OK.
“Because of the money I enrolled in the University of Maribor.
»Zaradi financ sem se vpisal na Univerzo v MB.
I wanted philosophy, but wasn't accepted, and because of my modest grades I ended up at biology... it didn't work out, so I quit and now I'm on welfare.
Hotel sem filozofijo, pa sem izpadel in zaradi slabega uspeha pristal na biologiji… to ni šlo, tako da sem vse pustil in pristal na socialni.
A year later I enrolled in history, almost finished the second year… and then went back on welfare… In fact I was on welfare for four years, I don't know exactly how… in the meantime I started moonlighting at a tobacconist's.
Čez leto sem se vpisal na zgodovino, naredil sem skoraj drugi letnik… potem pa sem šel nazaj na socialno… V bistvu sem bil štiri leta na socialni, pa ne vem točno kak… vmes sem začel na črno delat v trafiki.
Then I got a regular job.
Potem sem se zaposlil redno.
At the moment I'm extending my contract... for three months at a time, I can't afford to stay longer than I want to because of the signed contract... even three months is too much sometimes.
Trenutno si podaljšujem za določen čas… za tri mesece, zato ker si ne morem privoščiti, da bi zaradi podpisane pogodbe moral ostati na delu dalj, kot si želim… že tri mesece mi je včasih preveč.
By the way, I have a very understanding woman for a boss...”
Mimogrede, imam razumevajočo šefico…«
He spends most of his money on “non-refundable business” - music, for which he developed a special love back in grammar school.
Večina denarja pravi, da gre v »nepovratni biznis«- glasbo, do katere je razvil prav posebno ljubezen že v gimnaziji.
In addition to working at a tobacconist's he plays the guitar in a relatively successful band, and is also developing a solo project with “psychedelic synthesizers” and trying to start an independent life with his girlfriend.
Poleg tega, da dela v trafiki, igra tudi kitaro v razmeroma uspešni glasbeni skupini, v bendu, razvija pa tudi solo projekt s »psihadeličnimi sintisajzerji« in poskuša samostojno zaživeti z dekletom.
He's not worried about his future personal financial situation:
Njegov osebni finančni položaj ga tudi glede prihodnosti ne skrbi:
How do you understand luxury?
Kako razumeš luksuz?
“I dunno… a MOOG (prestigious, quite expensive keyboard) is a luxury, a car's a luxury, travelling…”
Kaj pa vem… MOOG (prestižna klaviatura višjega cenovnega razreda) je luksuz, avto je luksuz, potovanja…
You own a car?
Avto imaš?
“No, and I don't want one, it's just another money sucker… And my hobby's ducking loans.”
Ne in ga ne želim, ker je to samo še ena sisalica denarja… Moj hobi pa je izogibanje kreditov.
Why do you duck loans?
Zakaj se jih izogibaš?
“Because this is my short-term life plan, and as long as I don't owe anybody anything, I can still say fuck it all and become a bum.
Ker je to kratkoročni življenjski načrt in dokler nisem nikomur nič dolžan, lahko še vedno vse pošljem f pizdo in grem za klošarja.
This is my back-up plan.
To je moja rezerva.
I have nothing to do with rents and such shit… I live with my mum and half the house is mine… I pay the expenses… In fact, life doesn't cost me much.
Z najemninami in tem drekom nimam nič… živim z mamo in pol hiše je pisano na mene… plačujem stroške… Življenje me dejansko ne košta dosti.
But it's enough.”
Je pa dovolj.
In his opinion the main problem is the inadequate meeting of labour needs, inadequate education and Slovenian culture, which has a specific attitude towards work:
Sicer pa Nejc meni, da je z zaposlovanjem mladih v Sloveniji zelo slabo.
Every Pahor needs a tinsmith when he has a car crash.
Vsak Pahor rabi kleparja, ko se zaleti.
Some people like these jobs, though they're seen as inferior in society… Maybe some top-grade student would like to work with wood, but they don't let him and push him into a grammar school… I'd almost have preferred to go to vocational school, become a cook… but my parents pushed me into grammar school - our kid won't be a menial worker…”
Enim je to v veselje, pa se v družbi tretira kot manjvredno… Mogoče pa bi kak odličnjak rad delal z lesom, pa mu tega ne omogočijo in ga stlačijo med gimnazijce… Sam bi skoraj rajši šel na poklicno, bil bi kuhar…pa so me stari stlačli na gimnazijo - naš pa že ne bo delal…«
“Society should manage these resources fairly… if they can collect taxes, they should ensure that people are properly employed and occupied.”
»Družba bi morala pravično upravljati s temi viri… Tako kot pobirajo davke, bi lahko skrbeli za primerno zaposlovanje in delavnost ljudi.
How could the employment system be improved?
Kako je mogoče izboljšati zaposlovanje?
“By allotting part of the state budget to somebody to deal with this problem instead of spending a fortune on Patria dust covers.”
S tem, da bi del državnega proračuna namenili namesto radkapam od Patrij temu, da se nekdo ukvarja s tem problemom.
If my job was to put guitar strings on for Jimmy Hendrix, I wouldn't be happy with it.
»Do tega (službe) imam pa poseben odnos… Ne hodim rad v službo, nobeno, ker taka ne obstaja.
So I can at least buy some things, although I try to avoid materialism, but if I do go to work, I'll surround myself with things that give me pleasure.
Tako pa si vsaj kupim neke stvari, čeprav se hočem ognit materializmu, če pa že hodim v službo pa se bom obkrožil s stvarmi, ki me veselijo.
In short, I'm not a shirker, I just hate having a job… I'd like to work if I didn't have to have a job.
Na kratko, nisem delomrznež ampak službomrznež… Jaz bi že delal, samo v službo ne bi hodil.
A job takes away more than it gives.
Šiht ti več vzame kot da.
I'd like to work in a garden… well, that's probably where I see myself in ten years...”
Delal bi na vrtu… no, mogoče se tu vidim čez deset let…«
The very attitude towards young people in Slovenia seems problematic to him.
Odnos do mladih v Sloveniji se mu sam po sebi ne zdi problematičen.
He believes that the young and the old are all in the same boat:
Meni, da so mladi in odrasli v isti godlji:
“It's been like this all the time, for hundreds of years.
»To je ves čas, že stotine let podobno.
There are always changes which old people don't grasp fast enough... computers, for example.
Vedno pridejo neke spremembe, ki jih starejši ne dojamejo dovolj hitro... računalnik na primer.
About the attitude, I think the old and the young alike don't think enough... they just buy everything they see or hear about.
Glede odnosa pa mislim, da in stari in mladi še vedno premalo razmišljajo… vse kupijo, kar kje preberejo al pa slišijo.
