Portuguese Wedding Wish

precarious ...

Yesterday, reading - on an article from the "New" weekly to which they subscribe - income (reported) of the directors and Aldermen of the City of Udine dating back to 2005 I had a start ... you'll wonder why ...

Well, putting together directors and advisors, I appears to be the poorest of all (along with Arpino, director of minority) and Kristian Franzil the richest ... but this is not the reason for my start, because - as you say - mean that it's all my desire ... no, absolutely not, I believe to be much better than many others, only that the tremor is related to my history, I would like to give you some hints, because I think you could understand me more than it has already been written in these pages ...

In March 2005 gives birth to a beautiful little baby who gives joy to this day my life and that of my husband and two months after his birth I find myself discussing my thesis and then to complete my 3 years of search, during which he won-the-spot without a scholarship I had arrabattata with jobs and funding research projects which I had laboriously acquired - I worked really, not least winning the scholarship (won a contract with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs) which had allowed me to spend a year in the archives of the League of Nations (the UN) in Geneva, Switzerland.

Well, in June 2005, by a research grant "promised" by my tutor as well as research professor, were eager to make at least short-term programs on my future career, and looks a bit '- grants research is obtained from prof. but is given to another person (maschio!), evidently on the waiting list longer than me (alas, it works !)...

then I find myself with a creature of a few months, absolutely unavailable to wait for "my turn" to some place no one knows how and when and then I decide that I had to get a job "x" ... just grab a woman with needs of nursing and so on. etc..? Provo

a competition for administrative cat. C (So stop my qualifications as a graduate) at the University of Udine, in time and qualify, but not among the first on the list, and then after a few months and I forget until the age of 1 year of age My son (March 2006 ) my job is basically look for a job and take care of my son ...

Then there were the months with chores on an hourly, as a teacher of history and civic education in training institutions and little else, until I became, in June 2006 , coordinator of the URBAL project, co-ordination (salary co.co.pro in a net of € 800-900 per month) that I left in May 2007 why - look at the jokes of life - are called by the University following the contest above did in 2005.

At that point I am confronted with an important choice, I suffered a lot:
1) choose passion until December 2007 (date of expiry of my contract with the City of Udine) but then start to look for a work
2) choose the sense of reality , telling me that a fixed-term contract (for the first time in my life ... because until then I had only checks or contracts in co.co.co / pro) was still a less precarious co.co.pro

I chose the second option and today, 2008, are administered in a University Department with a net salary of 1,000 per month / € 1,100 and a contract expiring in one year exactly that I will almost for sure will not be renewed, for lack of funds. I do the administrative and accounting: I never thought - saw my path - I could do this kind of work, but it is what gives me something to eat and I think I can offer a valuable service even from this position. ..

Only you wonder why a woman who makes the choice to have children who do not agree to "wait turn ", to the racks, no one, to assert his dignity as a woman and a person who has acquired skills and believes he can make a contribution to our society is so hard to pay their own choices in the face of men, because in my life have always been men who have "obtained" the place that could have been mine, men who know nothing of the problems of a family, a job to "keep" close though it is not "your"? Why is it so hard for us women to get recognition (including economic) of our responsibilities? Why the precariousness of our generation is mainly "woman"??
