Wir sind die Mutanten
What does a reform-oriented company do, when it is stuck with a group of employees who cannot be fired? In the course of reforming the postal service in Austria, a kind of parallel universe was founded for the employees that are to stay in the company until they retire. People spending the working day without meaningful occupation, kept busy with dubious continuing education, and located in separate office tracts: this socially acceptable measure turns out to be an insidious contempt for human dignity with a system. (Lina Dinkla)
