TIR
For a few months now, Branko, a former teacher, has been working as a truck driver for an Italian transport company – adecision which can be easily understood as his wage has tripled. Yet everything has its price, even if not quantified in money. Whilst growing up, we were told, “work makes a man honorable”, but here it seems that the opposite has become true: it is Branko, with his efficiency, his stubbornness and his good will to make a job which is ever more alienating, bizarre and enslaving, a man far from noble.
