THAN ON FOREIGN LAND TO DIG MANURE, WORK BETTER ON COLLECTIVE FARM.
Hiring Russians on favourable job abroad,
Firms-intermediaries doom them on deprived of civil rights, beggarly
Existence.
Ten months were spent in solar Spain by 26-year-old Sergey,
The inhabitant of village Uspensky. In Quixote country it went not to have a rest
And not to study, and to work. That from this left, not in forces
To present even the most burnt pessimist. Recently Sergey
Has visited our edition and has told about the misadventures.
To try happiness abroad it has advised the distant capital
The relative, coming to stay for a while to Kuban in the last summer. An aria
The Moscow visitor sounded it is tempting: you will work couple of years, and
Then come back in the village if, of course, you will want, and live
pripevajuchi. Sergey from a parental grist has removed all, that
It was saved by years, and has set to Moscow. The announcement in the first
To the newspaper which has got on eyes promised decent job in the prospering
To the country and the quite good income. Has estimated Serega in mind, how much money
It is possible to snatch, and already in eyes has darkened - in native collective farm for all
It is so much not to earn a life. Visit to firm has added confidence.
The harmonous blonde has sung a nightingale about 100 percent
Employment, 750 dollars monthly, timely prolongation
Visas, to the medical insurance, haljavnom a food and residing.
The only thing that was required, - to pay about thousand "green"
For official registration of papers, tickets, and, certainly, firm works.
Still, not clearly what for, it was necessary to take half-pieces of dollars with itself.
The missing sum was lent by the Moscow relative (by the way, the lawyer on
To education), he has approved Seryogin a choice. Only why the lawyer not
Has told about that with firm not bad to conclude the contract, Serega and
Now cannot understand. A cloth a path In the appointed day and
Hour thirsting to go on earnings to solar Spain
Were going to at the Belarus station of capital. Anybody from enthusiasts about
To the future job by sense knew nothing. The lady from firm
Appeared on horizon with half-hour delay. Has handed over
Documents also has set travellers in the bus, which just about
Should go to Europe. To explain something driving off
It was obvious not in its plans.
- Unless in firm to you have told nothing? - It has with astonishment lifted
Eyebrows. - I respond only for sending. Yes you do not worry, on
Place you will be met by Andrey, and all will be normal. Having waved on
Farewell by the handle, it has left, and not having thrown light to clients on
Their further destiny. And travellers have developed documents and
Were stupefied. Instead of promised labour for three months at them on hands
There was a usual tourist visa for 15 days, the ticket in one
The end and any medical insurances. With the numerous
Changes lost courage "hard workers" have reached Barcelona, where
Them, naturally, nobody met. Promised Andrey together with
Any Spaniard appeared already zatemno.
- The people, do not worry! - has solemnly proclaimed
The compatriot. Now you pay to it donu on 400 dollars, and
It all of you takes on job. However, you will go to different places.
- No, we have got tired! We wish to eat, be washed, lodge us in
Hotel! - the company has rebelled. After long meeting
With the Spaniard "labour" have lodged in cheap hotel for them
The bill. Andrey next morning appeared.
- At whom what trades?
- Yes we generally to collect olives went.
Here Andrey was filled in with loud laughter.
- Yes you that? Here the collectors suffices! And what to you
The salary promised? 750 dollars? I such did not promise!
Poor creatures-Russians could not understand for what in any way it to pay 400
Dollars, and then to work for them the whole month. - Perhaps we
At first we will work, and then we will give from the salary, - has shy offered
Someone. - I stipulated with firm, that at you should be on 500
Dollars! - Andrey has sparkled eyes. - there is no money, then
To talk to me to you there is nothing, do that want.
"Rabsila" has begun to panic. The married couple from Moscow suburbs has handed over
On half a year apartment. To return - where then to live? Others too
Have seized for heads: have got into debt, in Russia, that with them
To settle accounts, it is necessary to work as years on creditors. So
Exit at travellers was not. The majority of them have laid out
Money, has embused and has left. And Sergey with one more guy,
It come too from Kuban, to pay have refused. They remained in hotel
To wait for news from the companions. But for a week so anybody from
Left also has not called, though promised. As there was a destiny
Fellow travellers, Sergey does not know.
