Become a prostitute or we'll cut off your unemployment
Says the German government. I never knew that prostitution was legal in Germany. Apparently there is a woman in Germany that has been given the choice between becoming a prostitute (or at least trying) and seeing her EI benefits cut. Prostitution is regarded by the government as a job like any other.
Now, in Canada, they expect you to try to find a job, but they seem to understand if you don't want to work at Wendy's if you are a skilled professional, like this woman. I mean, a skilled professional IT person, or teacher, not rub-and-tugger. If you think it's degrading for you to work there (as I do), then you won't try to take that or just any old job. So it seems less than reasonable to expect someone to work as a whore when they probably wouldn't work at Burger King (she did say that she would work in a bar, if that means anything).
Maybe that's just me, though. What a crappy choice to have to make, but I think it could be worse. They could ask her to work at McDonald's.
