job cuts
On Friday, at 11 am, I received the call I had been waiting for a long time by the Director of the newspaper. He invited me to his office, where he told me that "he regrets having to announce this". He did not tell me what he exactly regrets and I did not bother to get him out of that, by flagging what he regrets. He then told me that himself, he does not really want me to leave the newspaper and that he is very sorry. I consoled him cheerlessly for this unfortunate situation.

The Greek Public Radio (ERT) and TV and the Athenian/Macedonian Press Agency (APA/MPA) have been included in the list of the Greek public organisations that are expected to reduce their personnel by 10% immediately, by identifying them as "labour redundancy". Given a first estimation, the ERT is expected to lose around 380 employees during the first phase of the reform. The administration of each organisation has two weeks' time in order to devise a list of the employees to be sacked. The ones who have met the retirement age and those who have low qualifications (primary or secondary education) will be the first ones in the list. In case these employees don't amount up to the desired 10%, employees with general administrative tasks and employees in departments of administrative support and secretariats will follow.
