Just got back from a debriefing at the union concerning the perspective of serious cutbacks on social budget in Cph City.
Though being at the union it was per defintion impossible to discuss the proffesional problems and non the les, the social problems that surely will occur following cutbacks. It was primarely a economical debriefing, and the foresseable problems "would be discussed and related to when and if they occured..."
Saddening as it is it seems to be a reality that it is impossible not relate to, and it paints a picture of lack of proffesionalism administrating Cph budgets, but also a serious lack of respect for the proffesionalism that socialworkers at streetlevels have, the experience they gain and especially the relations they build to the youngsters in question. So basically my question is just: why hire educated people for streetlevel work, when all they want is loyal bend-overs who do as thet are told within an impossible economic framework?
The problem seems to me to be extra serious when arguments like trade proffesionalism at the Union is overruled by economial real politics...
But alas: Happy may 1st tomorrow. Whats the saying: hooray Hooray Its the first of may, outdoor fucking begins today?
