LONG LIVE THE SNCF
Annual receipts: 57 billion F, annual budget: 118,5 billion F, annual state subsidy: 75 billion F. Financing retirements: 14 billion (with our taxes) Debt burden: 232 billion.Hilarious! Read the whole thing in the original Sanskrit.
The situation for a typical driver of TGV:
- Wages: starting at 14.000 F Net per month, 32.000 FF conducting Net TGV at the end of the career, Christmas bonus, educational benefit, TGV benefit, a coal discount (you read that right), holidays free (let us remain calm), paid vacation, overtime pay, a non-taxable relocation allowance, a 25 hours per week schedule
For a 40 year old TGV driver, the annual take-home pay and benefits comes to 490.000 FF. Retirement is at 50 years. Medical care: free at one of the 15.900 approved hospitals, doctor’s offices, and clinics covered at 100%. Other privileges: free train fare for their families
AND EMPLOYMENT FOR LIFE... AND THEY DARE GO ON STRIKE and take the USERS (the word customer doesn’t exist at the SNCF) HOSTAGE...
