The politics of employment

 

It is really sad that in todays world, one would get a job not because of his/her merit, but because of politics. This next article from business.hr really makes me sick:

“Minister of Environmental Protection and Nature Mirela Holy, in a written request addressed to the President of Railways Holding Renu Valcic tried to save one secretary from being fired reports HRT Broadcasting.

The written request in the first sentence emphasizes that the  the secretary is the wife of  a party colleague, but the CEO of Railways Holding Valcic rejected this request. Holy says that it is not a political intervention, but it is a recommendation for a humane attitude toward an employee of the Railways, the reports of HRT.  I appealed. I sent an official request from the mail, but mail from the party to a party colleague, "said the show 'Open'.”

Not a political endorsement? Humane attitude? This is one of many real life situations in which individuals wishing to resume a status quo situation are left begging to the government to save their rightfully earned workplace.

Insomuch, I wouldn’t be surprised if this individual earned twice as much as she would have earned in an unsubsidized industry subject to the laws of supply and demand for wages.
