I interviewed someone for a teaching assistant job yesterday.
She is on an official list of people ‘waiting’ for positions in the state school sector.. the way this works in Italy is that you get points for various things (experience, qualifications etc) and the more points you have, the higher you move up the list.
If a school needs someone then they take the next person from the list, not someone much lower down.This is designed to stop people hiring their friends or alternatively people who bribe them for a job.
Anyway.. she told me that several people on the list above her are diabetic.Apparently that gives you extra points.I don’t know all the effects of diabetes,I guess it’s a form of ‘disability’ but I can’t really see why you should have a much higher chance of getting a job in the state sector for that reason.
What do you think?
Oh crap. I was baking some potatoes for a bit longer after finding them a bit hard the first bake, but I forgot to clean off some oily material from some salmon earlier. Now my baking sheet is totaled. Well, it was like $6, but still.
