life and suffering in the world of work begins this sketch of the last hours in a company, a corporation, a non. There have now been some months that a different time, so dont have a chance this rough draft, as such, at least to bring to a conclusion. Above all, missing the final meters, the final steps in this area, a view in all directions, at the very end, or who knows, at the very beginning when I wrote that section. The life of the years preceding it can only be touched, can shine through in only a few reflections. The move itself was correct, since there is no repentance, the ability to find people and places that are closer to one to be more active with a chance, I can call it living life again.
If someone reads to the end and I will write a few words, I would be very grateful. I am particularly interested in the course, the style, dealing with the times, but this is mitigated considerably.
If there is a new version, it will be on a different page at the moment is completely empty, yet to be found.
On the way home it was clear today they will have to decide which way they go. Whether you live with the risk in this particular situation in which his income is now time, unfortunately, very important was, although protected at first, but much insecurity and uncertainty, or whether they initially did so on as the last months, or years in a grueling difficult everyday. On one side was an immediate improvement in their quality of life with a fresh start in this society, or the continuation of a daily life that harbored many dangers in the work, as in life in their own homes.
He had a conversation with his superior, the Americans, and a works council. In the room of the works. What had already told him, without a word, it is serious, it should be something decided. His old friend, a long history with the works councils. He has never used, only once, and he has responded so stupid that even he was surprised. The works of work of work confused with trade union membership, or makes no difference. Earlier this summer, they were once sitting together, then he had even invited a kind of witness, a Democratic attempt to explain. The issue of a works: what job he could fill what he might do. He did not respond, well, their course, we should let people choose? He had rejected the question. Who comes to an idea. Or the suggestion that he has heard of problems with staff but that's not her here, he was about to say anything at all. Nachtgehakt had he, a direct word, but he was evasive. Because it had surprised him. Problems he heard the first time he at that time the final confrontation had spared one hand he liked not be ugly to have, on the other hand, the consequences of the disease, watch out, he must, he should not be too emotional to stay in the rigid mouth the words stuck. This is particularly important because it carries thereafter always what he did not respond, a possible meeting with these responses provoked, for he was not just a word, and he is unlikely to be slow, he would have much more daring, be aggressive, This is about his interests. But he had seen too often when he needed to see in the face of others, he has not understood and it is this almost embarrassing.
A few days ago when his boss had prepared him for the fact that the HR department of his favorite, rework the bid, the sleep disturbances were immediately returned. Despite these strange pills nothing, absolutely nothing, slept. In surprise, he was normal to talk to him, nor answer what they can fix that he must begin to think the final offer was so far away from a usual range is normal in this company, and secondly, it does not work, now it is not, unfortunately. Access not before we told the Americans, well disposed to him a really likeable person. Many other said he comes across human. Human, but perhaps to conceal a lack accommodating, apologetic. He was not the next day at work and could have gone in for an extended sick leave. He did not want. He just wanted to know how it looks with a cure. The answer was another building block for its decision. This health system that does not exist for most people it was disappointed once again. No, he wanted to clarify. He wanted an answer to the question why they let him alone, without the right to raise loud. Privately, but also the hope for a good offer. An offer that would force him to consider an offer that could arise also his wife. Be bold, ask a hundred thousand, then you say thank you and go. He repeated a few thoughts from the mail he had written to the Americans, even before many weeks, and emphasized his work ethic, effort, his assessment that he does not drop safe, which also was quite certainly the case. He repeated it partly because he believed not the Americans that he understood his messages. That he could not speak German well or not well enough for his position, he had often heard. But no one had ever addressed, according to theme. However, they did not respond to it. In concrete terms, fighting, he would not. For this purpose he should have said name compare what would have been pointless, because they do not yet know what is real going on in the hall. Why now discuss fundamental about life in this world of work with people who are so far away from the fact that one wonders, can such a company can withstand such a thing, even though he understands it, the representatives of the hierarchy, why be so needs. We'll want to redirect only the bid. Think about and decide for yourself. It was naive to think of it, or to hope that they respond to it as he is, he shows how he lives. Who was the driving force, which he would like to know. The offer was good. They had to think about this offer. Furthermore, he wanted his wife in the holiday weeks To talk but now they had no time. What they had then offered him after the holidays, was so insulting that reason alone, he no longer should think ahead.
After this interview was to strengthen to time, lunch. As usual, alone. Rarely in society. He loved to watch people, even if it uncomfortable to sit in dirty clothes off and to avoid contact. He then tried to reach his friend. He was there. He said though that he must soon to a meeting, but he answered him, I must show you, I want to see you shortly. He was curious, and gratefully accepted the calculation note, which he added his corrections. What he had said a few weeks when he and his had gone to work to home. Accept it, they will leave you now no longer at rest, if not now, next time you're back there. Half-hearted he had tried, that he brings to himself, after the dissolution of the department, but a man was against it. A madman, a rabble-rouser, a troublemaker. A silly view. Outside the world of work it would be a libel. Thus, his status in this company. They had some basic conversations in the weeks that went far beyond the workplace. That he would miss. He was such a reason that he had ever endured so long in this company, in a foreign occupation, in a strange world, and not even he had also helped him very much. It would be Been enough time to approach a little of this world, be ever more in it, work to get involved. But this technique was not him. You could rely on him, but ambition in this world was foreign to him. His friend was in his element, creative, design, and no wonder, irreplaceable in his area. He did not want to be a burden. Those were the great moments in this company when he was with his friends. Over the years, some familiarity had developed. In so many years it was very rare that they also met privately. Life in the work, however, had reached its limits. He was too old, and he wanted there to be old in any case. This company was not the World, but they gave the impression of being a world in miniature. He was eager for this review, in reality, if the story continues. He would not mind. He would very much welcome.
A little earlier than usual, he made his way home. After all, they went on that evening in a concert. Work he could not. Meaningless handles. Why not, that's absurd, if a company is understood to want to go up, we have that in such a moment can not pack right. He worked anyway, not much, but it worked, but gave him the rest, spacing. And more than some other still. A few conversations with people. One had seen that he worked and worked well, real grip correctly, what is it when you see him, not as trusts, and who had asked him, you want to stay there, then they just say, let me alone. Many conversations with him, each with its history. He hoped for a good solution because he had a personal emergency, he might regret even if he does not do the right thing can and with him was about a couple of months. Or the young generation. One transported from his superiors in a very early age a rather good beneficial life that had left him a little inscrutable. Was he an informer? Was it for the wrong reasons, friendly, interested? No, not really, but it sounded too many critical Comment it ear what to do with the old man, unbelievable. After all, he was in his group, and without that sick, thank you little girl, he had often said in low voice, if he was armed at home, he would have stayed there and would have even had in hand, to determine the time. He had seen at close range as he real grip, strong, quite suddenly, after some difficult early and settling-weeks. But he had also allowed open words and had already made a few jokes that he had not got another but had smiled. People forget how to work quickly if they are allowed to delegate. Presence is important. Who looks out really close, how to do overtime. He himself had no interest in such. Anyone who works his eight hours, but tired, and yet has a life outside of work also deserves or not. But many took advantage of the overtime, but they brought a tolerable extra income. They were young people in this group, which has done him good, but the limits were felt, even seen a different world. Or another, he demonstrated how the way things might go if you want to hold out for sure. Probably the most useful combination, union member and party member. Really amazing how some people can hold there for years, even if they are even there hinschiebt, then there hinschiebt. But a friendly After the men leave he has been put into this group. Just as he had noticed it, there was previously some cancellations, some effort to take him to not have to. This is lived before, how you have to be quiet and unobtrusive and calm, almost stoic. not freedom for a very long lunch break, for example, no problem, the generous time, the man is on the desktop, is based on anything, he had to ask, or is this acceptable if it is long enough in the company. As a better colleague to him once at breakfast, said in confidence, as there are people who want to talk to you anymore because you're on the list. It makes no difference, he understands also with temporary workers. For him, one man alone. On whom
way home he gets a few yards together, the former secretary of the disbanded Department. Since the differences are. Good relationships, as you come off the assembly line at a desk items, decorated in this company with many freedoms. A few words. Not many. The department is dissolving, and miracle oh miracle, some are needed. Since many have asked who has done this work at this place before. Really amazing. A company rich. His former boss is visibly bored at his new place, but he spends most of his time in the smoking corner. Forecasts by the way has been through a secretary, what is now a highly paid man alone makes the comment was in the old hall, which had become increasingly empty, and who knows, will be dissolved soon, all the way until the last man
Already in recent weeks, he was often on the platform a parting sentiment. The view out to the old hall to the building site, tucked behind his new shop, which had brought him even less luck than anything he had ever experienced in all the long years in this company. In recent months there have been many days where one has shown how important it is how fast everything is, how uncertain the ground is on which one has moved all these years. Sometimes it really hurt, because you powerless is delivered any people who do not look closely, the decision without giving the people something in his hand so that they can at least understand it.
train rides, the last few months. If its good train would go anyway. read in peace, in the morning and after work, much would be different. What he had to wrest otherwise would be tough, as a matter of course. But no, any thieves out of print from anywhere on cables which had serious consequences in a thunderstorm. Therefore, it was every day for months at least half an hour longer on the road, and the minute if you wait and can not do what would be a boon in these minutes, that's bad luck.
worn everything. Eternal repetition. The familiar faces, people that one at some point and noticed that you live a little, without that you have changed a single word with them. Too many people. Although the train is as vertical as good as never before, as he would have to think when was the last, but still, this detour it sucks, this roundabout way he has stolen a large piece of quality of life. But this waiting for the next trip in Floridsdorf. Some jump out and walk over to the train, which would have been mostly successful, but not always, but he never did. They are a two or three minutes. As he was sitting rather have stayed in thought and contemplating life around him in this world. Were those minutes on the train a bit relaxing, so was the last section of the underground horror. All crowded to go pretty hard because what you have to watch that move most people as if they were alone in the world, surprisingly, not because people often run together.
The road home is long, long after work.
That day he was not like most of the time spent until his wife came to my home was. His cat had been expecting him and he had to do only a few important small ways before he sat down on the bed and Sindy himself comfortable on his thighs made. Today, only a little. Bathe, shave, and get ready, so that his wife had a free bath. When his
Woman was finally here, a quiet doing the common needs. Food and a few papers, especially eating together by his wife with the little child, always the first and has the last word that is always on confrontation, which always interferes and funny and sweet, almost defended when it points out. But only almost. Her tone is overbearing and preachy and very toxic, only the degree of variation is always different. Sometimes it just may look cute, because if such a handsome young man says as she talks with her mother and me, can that be bad?
It was a holiday. They decided on a holiday. Two great Russian artist in Vienna, Konzerthaus. He had also purchased a card. His wife said, you do not have to go, you see nothing, the husband of a friend of hers had bought a map. No, those evenings they spend together. Why he should not have call, it was never a thought. A short delay while the cards were very expensive.
know what he could not, or what he had forgotten that his boss had written him an email, the confirmation of the offer, as they remained a few hours earlier in this conversation were. A few accents were necessary. They probably had the offer was made as at the end, had not planned because of the difference to offer one month against the unacceptable was, was too large, too large. But they had no time. As he and his wife. Yet he was no longer to be bolder in my mind. Although he was a month ago with this offer, he would have understood it after talking with the Americans at that time, would have refills, there was still time for serious negotiations. For example, a small swipe at the union negotiations.
If he had read these lines, this one word, if he had read it in peace at home, would it perhaps so irritated that he would have said no, although he also was so clear that it only was a matter that he signs that they want to get rid of him. If these supplements in The documents are he will probably sign. Please enable rapid change in the documentation! If one reads the home alone in peace, the defiant and reluctant to make, though he knew he wanted to leave, he did not want to be there.
How was the offer.
good, really good.
Would the pros and cons on a normal day and how it happened? A public holiday. A great concert in Vienna. And in the end they were both very enthusiastic.
They sat in the tram and provided only a few words in his own thoughts to the other. In recent months, it was always present. Today no more repetitions. It was told everything, everything over and over. His wife had to tell every day disgust of incidents in the work to a working and working to make a change. This desire was very strong in their life, but whether this could be the first correct step?
They painted the next time if he accepts.
There were no bare cold considerations. They painted. They saw the quality of life. His wife could no longer be awakened every morning, especially saw a not so tired depressed silent man to have on their side. could be satisfied above all the chance to learn something to make it with what he's doing, she saw, for plans they had had enough, she had long been predicted if it gets that far, you'll be an accountant, which can du All very solemnly. On that day they would see only the good ways. Risks were almost not before, were wiped out quickly to respond to new with the security of the training, with the desired option, the housing problem. The money would then come into the house soon wanted his wife also work independently of this issue, important as it is a new apartment, or even a house. They visited a Russian concert. Many Russian people. Home air to breathe. The ride was not long. She looked lost in thought, concentrated, questioning, listening attentively. She was always a great realist. Life had left her no choice. You always knew what is necessary for life, it expected to always whether the bill could go out in the end, even if they work, since she was a little lost the measure, but was the man in the background, able to compensate for the missing, borgend. No wonder, the privations were great in the early years, and still got their two children the most. But soon they were there, got out and walked slowly enjoying the concert hall. It was not so often that they did something.
His wife immediately saw an acquaintance. Only a few days earlier at a parents' evening met. A man with a child and classmate of her daughter. Russian. The man asked him if he speaks Russian. He had to have the impression that he was the only man in the did not care for the language. Shortly after, she saw before her friend, who had come with friends. This exchange of words had always funny to him. Sun trained as if a program is being unwound. As if they wanted to outdo itself. The people were well dressed and talked, a beautiful building, they were already a few times since. He thought, the Austrians know that this is a Russian concert. He had never seen before, a large bar in the lobby, which was not open for nothing. During the concert, he looked around in all directions, they sat side front, unfortunately on the wrong side as they had to recognize later, still within reasonable limits, Views in rambling, enjoying such a rare evening, but also knowing that such a visit until a reasonably normal paid work makes possible, whatever it may be. The artists were getting used to. He, the great star, with minimal movements, hints more, played with the audience, aware of the quality of his singing, he was celebrating, the man borrows his voice, and now and then he invites people to sing along. Beautiful. People with no hum, sing with them. The singer reminds him of a classic yodeler, then rolled over her voice. He estimated an older. For many years in business, long practiced the art of people to entertain, bring people together. The Russians love concerts, at least he had that impression. They celebrate for days. The camera did not manage to take some pictures as a reminder. The dance group that came when on the stage, always surprised with a new panel was fantastic. He knew the Russian athletes in synchronized gymnastics. Fantastic. Even before he had his wife twice purchased music, so the evening can linger. Her friend showed no signs of that after the concert they went to a restaurant, so they then went home without much to talk about the day, a few words, look, here live Russians, pretty close. Yes, his wife soon knew more people in this country than he.
the night short, but lively, very alert, in morning. The atmosphere should be the answer. His wife said, you decide, I live with every decision. A short night. There were even two children at home. Huh, the big kid when he entered. Yes, the two children. They had been spoiled everyday life. He did not endure only no joy every day to go into a strange world of work, tempered by some good contacts, and sometimes recovery, he had to torture less and less pleasure to the question louder, why, why he should be very ill can make of these two children. What had gone wrong, the bringing back into balance, this was impossible in everyday life. He made the hard painful experience that every moment in life is crucial that no moment is correctable, that life continues to flow steadily and we must be careful that one is not carried away and lost her bearings. No more tea, as had to get up the next day the little girl, she should get the chance to get a good sleep. They do not use this often, and alas, she gets a reason, then all hell breaks loose, even in the middle of the night. A short night. He wondered if he should tell his wife or something, it did not. Also, they should sleep. She has it hard enough in their work, with her colleague, no one can stand each year at least one employee to the extent that he brings about. She slept well. Only his step was slower. So again, one last time. Low calculated, but since he had cats, generous, there was room for a few minutes, just be there, even after looking at food and water. She did well. Not human being should have every person in the vicinity. He was very fond of her. If he wanted to share it, a stranger, he would say only that his wife just says, now they would only discuss. But could anyone imagine that this experience does not know what she means what she sees and experiences every day with the cats. She did well. And he wanted her to have as good a life as possible, in such a dwelling, without lawn without Freewheel without adventure. He had to go. Just as she looked at him, it did hurt him always to have to go. The view is always something when you come, you come back. Or even, take me with you. What now and then that takes few feet down the hall, shape. But it does not work.
He walked quickly, like most, he could not say why. Because he can, still can. After all, he was once very athletic. Here and there encounters at the house early in the morning, but all very friendly. If people need to get out so early, the other is a friendly greeting. At the intersection he saw the clock up on each of the four sides of a different time, because half when he was unsure whether he caught the subway yet, but the view to the side of the Steeple. At least this useful. Usually he leafed through this free newspaper, not this time. The monotony of everyday life. Subway rides he did not like. She is too loud, too many people. The hope that the train is exactly new every day, for how often he had to stand there and wait indefinitely for these trains, delays and no relief in sight, always new announcements and attacks. Also, he wanted to be rid of, even if he does, if he just covered, caught with the connection is not as bad had, although he had enjoyed a few years, work to eight minute subway ride away, that was before the move, because they were too expensive apparently, and had to save.
A final march to the company. The atmosphere was unique. It was a liberation. There was no doubt, no hesitation, no reflection, it was clear to him that was the last course in this company, finally out, over at last, finally free, and recover and then start something new, something with which he could make friends more . And it was decided that since he did not know if the agreements are also accepted Sun But he had no doubt. If they made so much pressure in the final hours of the year, then had no time to hesitate, if they wanted him to go, they would agree to it, after all, he had dispensed with a few repairs and they were sure glad to get him were going on. But who was the driving force. Well-being of Americans who wanted to be freed from something incalculable, even if some nice approaches there, but that is one sick should not have to be. Explain that he did not want that it had nothing to do with the work that it had nothing to do with the disease. But twice within a few months at the focal point, could not be well received. And while still insisting on the duty of care to the employer.
The proximity of the work has brought him close to one of the most unpleasant colleague at work, because he was very often in the same train and even worse, the dressing room was next to him. A statement he had not, why was this distance, not even greeted. Since it is much faster went as anyone else, he was usually already on the way to work when this fellow came into the dressing room. He had to be reminded of his school days at the boarding school, for two of his classmates came from this village. He said if one knows one, knows them all. A real German cruiser. He was complacent and conceited and pretentious in the village-type but fun to watch, will lead a discussion of the word, even if he holds back, so in the way of what I say, this is it. One of those, the amount of time spent in the smoking areas, even what was not only forbidden, but also stupid, had a cigarette in his mouth when he was changing. During the summer he had a young Ferialpraktikantin. They laughed at him even as he took care of them. That day he was released from and he made his steps as usual, because of the construction site a tune into a quick transition to the other side, stand for a red light, which he did not come to mind. That day he was happier as he wanted to have peace and wanted, but it is impossible to wait in silence on the Americans, but early in the morning at a small Vorfrühstück what he had been living only after two weeks, which was a mistake because to eat a hot coffee and a bite, he just needed.
A good mate came to meet him afterwards and immediately saw the decision easier. He repeated only if they confirm the offer so he will go that way. He had once told him weeks ago, you'll make here less than two years, brings you to it. With him it was a few months, at most, he complained only once again, why I could not my mother earlier by five days to bring to the world. Later, we talk more. He had already told him that the Americans had said to him no, he needed him, he wants it. Polite reserve, just so no comment. The self-presentations of some people it tasted bitter. With another, he agreed shortly, last words on the work of the last hours, what they do with each other. It was only when he directly working with him, and there were a few more personal words. He knew him from seeing very many years, but only in the immediate vicinity were the memories of the amateur photographer who had exhibited in the company even in a corner. It was the great waiting for the Americans. The final touches, it was clear to him. No longer with the dangerous edges come into contact, no more looking for tools whose names are not easy to remember, will not bother even more committed to work with him also fall hard not longer work with the reading glasses, because he hurt without the head does. If he were to master the work, he could live with that, but again and again and queuing the whim of others to be extradited, which he did not need. This old man, with such a great vest, I want into the board, could be very unpleasant, even though he understood him.
A final coffee break. The tables arranged, the people familiar with the usual conversation in the talks. He watched the first ever group in which a good senior colleague of the same as he had only previously been deported, had established almost always talks about football. On this day, he was not there because he had received a cure and only came into this company hoping that they leave him alone now that they sent him home so he could be so happy. Most recently he was with older and younger colleagues at a table. The young and the elderly. He liked the company. After that, the last short walk to work. It should be the final job. The construction site where they were, the foreman described the individual sections so was just ahead of a forced break, lack of material. He brought two ladders so they could fasten the top of the cabinet seals. The top he could see how the foreman was walking and he looked at him. This was something which he did not come clear. If he knew that that lives with him as he is, then he would otherwise occur. Twice, three times, approaches a call. A crazy what they are doing to people. Seeking understanding when he looked young leaders, all day I look for him already, who is never out of place. Or if he did a little on the state which brought with him is here, always the answer, I do not know, nobody tells me anything, I just know he was looking for you. He was not sure about him. That was weird, because otherwise he had always count on his people skills, clear with a very quick decision. Here he had left everything open. But if he had to choose, he would say what he had said out loud, man is fully in order, he moves like a David Bowie. They had not left him alone, although it was accepted and he could say to make more than some of the simple only sent discreetly tolerated lead a life as he could only wonder, even temporary workers, which was particularly amazing. No one said let him alone, the man works. He still had the feeling of not being welcome not be assumed that this core group prefers the old situation again wanted, from which they swarmed, as it has all worked out, as there were no problems. Only we could not verify these statements. And he did not want to answer. For perhaps the could not work in a small group in a large group to work with a lot more work and cope. It was inevitable that the conflict, but he did not want to. He had once Many years ago, shortly desire to be more active in working shape, but he thought too long and pushed before not after, it announced not filed any claim, although it twice, three times would have been easy.
The Americans finally came. He asked him kindly if he has read the mail. No, no, I was yesterday at a concert, there was no time for anything. The Americans wanted to bring them up to the current status. Never mind, he said, as she walked into a nearby room. He put the printed mail on the table, and assumed that he hear the "yes he did got to hear. It was confirmed by all, lay really had no Had meaning, he was too sympathetic, he was not before him and before the summer battling with the works councils, it was clear to them that they come to a solution that everyone can live with both. These two men, he and the foreman, which he liked, and some individuals had him right, but the environment and goings and the daily routine and the lack of transparency and the open field and a few individuals, which he did not want not here anymore. He was too old to be here after many years of independence must now begin again, if he so much resistance in the weeks opposite was blown, he often could not sleep properly with these offers him the company last six months had made, after a year of complete uncertainty, for many people. They talk only a few words. He had seen private words on the tongue, but there were only hints, only half sentences. It was over. He had not declared a critical health status, and he could not even guess how that had arrived. Sick leave is sick and he meant was not there and when important work queuing, each man was important. Each hand is important, then the Americans had not unfriendly, almost warmly said. But it was over. He sat there and there was nothing to talk, just verify. He said only if he has free time, so he say goodbye in peace could. He offered that he told the supervisor, the coordinator, no, no, he does have himself then he should tell him that he allow that. He did not believe that he has something about it. So he gave him the phone number that he would call when he got the final documents. It was the last day, large shops, we noticed it. He looks as if this was brought him quickly to the last state that this was his last day and whether it is okay that he can say goodbye to his friends, a couple of hours if he is free. No problem. This, his representative was there, too. Also not to miss something of what he had going on, would conflict was inevitable. Nice young woman, very ambitious representative was allowed to play if he was not there, and was exactly in those days, a different person. It was incomprehensible to him that the coordinator had no more trust people.
A rough plan for the remaining hour was not necessary, as he had to make the dressing rooms free to return a measuring device, but that did not make sense to stay here long. He asked if she was there, a good friend, and was on his way to her. He sat for a long time with her, at work, part of the time hiding in the new smoking area in the altered hall that looked like a small bar, good. She was not really shocked because she herself was in a transitional phase. The long History of the last time she told him, asking also what he had noticed. It had not occurred that they did meet once outside of work, after his move to another hall, for how often and how long they had sat together during the breaks, the two friends and himself. This will miss him.
the call of the American he saw only as a voice. Yes, they were in a hurry, because shortly before the afternoon was still speaking. He came forward and said he was in the other hall and he'll be back soon. Once again in the changed environment are but trusted the people with whom he had many years together, many stories, many encounters that leave memories in the tour, he was not loud, only his few close people. For some people it would not say anything, he was lucky there was no unwanted encounter. It had to look at him as if everything dissolves. Grave mood. Hope that there are still as long as possible is that it lasts as long as ever in this company, but the direction was obvious to most people.
right, "he said to himself, to break this last course. After lunch, he'll be back, he told her, after all, he wanted to say goodbye to a second friend also. He was there, he knocked and the Americans came up to him, a few words, then they sat down to the conference table, everything is open in this new world of work, at least in this area for a while remained The Americans are also at the table, making sure that everything fits, and then went to his table. Now he had an accurate pre-calculation on, and the text of the agreement. In the calculation was wrong, the individual partial sums in addition, unlike in the first calculation that he saw listed, first he told the Americans that there is something wrong, without a doubt but that the settlement will vote at the end, then discovered He recognized the problem and that the sum will be a little smaller, because it concerns the compensation of the wage cut wrong, too high, had stated, and that number was counted but not listed as first extra. But even these three lines were classified as partial sum, once other three lines. It was misleading. Possible that they had become too sloppy with all the work they had in recent weeks. Although the impression that this department will work hard, he never had. Where do I sign in order to bring to an end, as the Americans stayed away, gave him time, because one thing was clear after the signature was eaten the story. A return there was no more. That would not fit him that others might say he did not know what he's doing. Others were brought in at this moment still a works if everything is correctly identified as. No read, he could, and if they would get him angry, would it in the rear still has a nasty surprise for the company. He signed the agreement and did what he had commanded the day to be free from the life of this company. He was in a euphoric mood, all day already and now the final point, no return, departure, beginning in late middle age, with respite and recreation, to put the chance of doing what everyday life was no room, bring out the treasures and encounters Explore brush up further and and new, as in earlier times, so hard it would become, in everyday life had he, it was clear to him, but still, the atmosphere was clear he had only this one life and here he would go broke, here he would be getting old and eventually have to admit, now is nothing more luck phases would be history, it has always existed and it showed what was possible, but had the day it made more and more, was at that moment He realized it was the right thing even at this very difficult time, and his wife went with yes, knowing what they were getting, so she was already arrived in this country. So they faced each other and it was a moment in which a last possible meeting as it was in the life of this company would have been really difficult. In the talks he was quite personal, responsive to the people who recognize something that is wrong here, should do otherwise, even if he had his interest, his targets here and thought that would be better here in the future to have no more problems for him. He was almost cordial, representing the agreement as a win win situation, and happiness for all wanting more. It happened very fast, and he saw it then not again. In the large Vorraumbüro
sat next to the window, next to the secretary of the department, including his former boss. He avoided him, without looking away. No contact, no more. The good friend had also repeated a story about how he had made himself responsible for the strong friend of his wife, a works in this country for someone to disability pension gets. You do not even know she had, they had it for years worked with this woman. He remembered a friend passed the years before that, according to a pushing off, which you could not even remember him, and he had every reason not to be grateful to him, he had said a year ago, the man is not free, the man has a job. As he learned later, the work would have been acceptable. Whether the work would have been the future, which he did not know. But the stress of the long past months would not have been. The stress of him taking home a perpetual memory of that time, the buzzing and ringing in the ears high. He looks rather a reproachful anger, silence, because he as a person For him there was no one with whom he wanted in those days still in contact. No greeting, for some time, one day it was so, for the first time a reunion was difficult.
only briefly, he went to his job. The two immediate colleagues were curious and talked. Apparently they forgot that he was present. You have to be a troublemaker, you get such offers and can, go happy, but they were always there, always busy, always the company in the heart, are needed, they can not get rid of it, are here probably out worn with the bier once . One was visibly angry that they did not meet him that they had not responded to its offers. A sum that he wanted extra for this additional year, and the ever so placed was that the company spared little - lost all sense of proportion has spoiled generation. He was disappointed again, as they had much talk with each other because he had told him several months ago to accept the offer, he would have received had he not changed in this department because he had safe hands with this sum, almost. But they are just too greedy. There stood the two and spoke with a self-assessment on which he smiled quietly to himself. He might be surprised, for he saw but what they were doing, but he knew the words and stories, not only in this Company. It was over. It had to disturb him any more. He was lucky to leave in a few hours this place and hope that he would meet other people in the future. So he did what he had to be done to make the dressing room empty and give the equipment to the foreman, which was not as easy as the man in charge in charge of everything already outsourced and could not be reached. But why should he not simply give the equipment. Without that it could realize it, because he was pretty indifferent here, it was a sign of confidence that he gave no confirmation. After all, he had signed it. The oft-repeated scene in recent months. He felt well, the man would like to say more, the man felt the tightness in this hall, and wanted a different experience, but it was too late.
It was time for one last lunch. He told yet that he afterwards, in the other hall and that it can take. The food he had enjoyed. Variety, here and there what he tasted, and rest while eating what he had to come home. He was a stranger there, there and everywhere. The Freu Santander Linter Food Will stock was foreign to him, because he had a foreign body, remain unpredictable, dangerous, not one to play along, the rules are not accepted, not accepted. He had a certain reputation and now and then flashed in brief encounters that know him a little better had learned, appreciated him and respected him. Even the grand old man has taken years for another one-estimation. After he went to visit the works, he did not want to say anything that would have been after so many years and so many conversations and stories, even conflicting, not in order. He was not there, but when he came out, he came to meet him because he had no time, they set off, in about an hour.
Since he did not see the second good looking girlfriend, while he did not know he went back to the first. She had no fear for him and was one of the few people who had come to know him better. They understood each other well. Yes, so you can make sure that you do not lose sight of, but a large section it was, and it had also not yet been shown that you do something outside of work. Time will tell whether phone calls to a meeting. She was on the move, and their lives to get a grip, but they took some burden.
you goodbye for the day and the other friend looking he saw her sitting in the next corner, another old colleague. No, because he could not pass. The model father. Five children. Some times even a foster child from a difficult family extra. Many years have breakfast together. For some time he was even his coordinator. The good honest man, bourgeois in the best sense. A large piece of Story ran in front of his eyes.
What remained was the way to the office of the works. The question was not yes or no. It was unthinkable not to do and would be an exaggeration after all these years, despite all the discussions, despite a few conflicts, and although they had deserted him, even before his departure. Had the old man still there, then it might not come this far, and then would this prove even a way to get a good man once more the honor, who had shown him, you can actively do something for the people in the workplace. What might have been able to accuse him that he had forgotten to look out for a good successor. But he was no longer there. He went anyway, often wondering what this would have made it into this new era. Doubts were installed. The other side was too strong. As opposed brace if you have never used the real power, not only in words, and in token protests, but really, the whole staff, asked involved, not just informed. There they were, all, or some, and there was not much to say. It was a visit of courtesy, a Go in peace. A statement as he had always had in mind, this was not the day but not this day. As they sat outside, deputies, which was never his and he would have never done so, one dreams of a world under the same, and wondered what he often find his life had that many people have very very similar as people from long ago. This council reminded him very strongly to the minister of his home village who had come from his school in this city. Appearance to speak to the nature, attitude and gesture, just incredible. He left him alone the contract aloud and commenting volubly and at the end say, yes, you can sign it, even though he knew that all this has already happened. Then, at the very end, a few words about the good company, that it was a good company and that they bring out the best for the people and the beginnings of a critique, a counter-word, the word, after half a set from him, for it then reconciling word, visit the Social Academy and make it better. He would have to make more than ten years and can and would be in terms of the company, even the best for him. Quite a few employees had wished. But that did not work. Would not today.
