Refugees, well trained, motivated, young looking … to be butcher, baker or painter in Germany

Bob: I don't want to leave. 

Charlotte: So don't. Stay here with me. We'll start a jazz band.

God, what a difference just four months make. The SZ screams:

Labor market and refugeesWell trained, motivated, young looking ...

and one thing is clear, IT'S PARTY TIME! The refugees are here, yeehah!

Let's listen in:

As Obaidah AlSaleh came to Munich two years ago, the Syrian did not know anyone in the city and did not speak German. After half a year integration course he began to work as a warehouse worker and packers in a company for beauty products. After a few months he was in the company take orders and went up to deputy foreman.The 32-year-old has an apartment in Munich found and speaks fluent German.

Well, what did I tell you, a total success ... until you read the next sentence:

In Syria AlSaleh had studied agronomy. His aim was a training or study in the technical field.

Oops, what happened, Germany. I thought it's FACHKRÄFTE you are so desperately looking for? Germany, what did you not understand? He studied agronomy! Are you trying to tell me plants in Syria grow from left to right and agriculture there is totally different from European?

That at present many politicians and media figures spread, how high the rate of illiterate or less extensive among the refugees are holding Social Officer Meier for a doomsday scenario. She speaks instead of a "huge opportunity" for the city of Munich. It was particularly remarkable how many were just the young refugees often highly motivated.

Sounds awesome this "huge opportunity" and this would be the right time to call in the Madonna of Low-wage Jobs. Let's give a big hand to Anette Farrenkopf, all-new man. director Jobcenter Munich. Well hello, ma sweet blonde babe.

What did Anette think of all those foreigners and refugees flocking to bucolic Bavaria just four months ago in June and BTW without ever having talked to or met one?

Well, Ms. Anette chose a very intellectual newspaper, the AZ, to spread her wisdom and that goes like this:

However Farrenkopf understands the refugee influx by no means purely as a burden on her agency. On the contrary: "These are very studious people," she says, especially artisanal interested.

Cool, can we have more? Studious sounds great. Artisanal, oh, get's me all revved up. So I am getting really curious here, Anette.

Many would want to be butcher, baker or painter. 

Oh gee, Ms. Farrenkopf, that is a bummer. You sure? How the heck did that happen? Just a minute ago you were all gaga and elated about their studious traits and their artisanal expertise, and now this. Any explanation mayhaps from ze lady?

These are the professions for which our young people are interested in no longer," says the job center boss.

No shit? Is that so? Please bear with me, sweet buxom lady of low-line jobs, as I am experiencing some bumps on the road following the whole mantra of the labor minister, the BA dudes and many other people in the business of pretending to know stuff, but it still keeps resonating in my ear that Germany is in dire needs of FACHKRÄFTE. So here you have young people, eager and interested, and you want to funnel them into shit jobs that, and for a reason, no young German people want to do?

There is even more to it, sweet lady, you sound fucking racist and in doing so, you blew the cover of what that job of yours, the German Labor Agency BA and the refugee laws is: syphoning off enough refugees to fill low-wage jobs and kick the rest out of the country. On trains I hear.
