The protest is not about SNCF - they are only part of the pic. Let's talk about the pension reform in general, not about the SNCF (with some sloppy info btw)

- user5994461 7y agoThe protest is about all the special pensions, SNCF and the 50 other, they're all quite similar.
- skitout 7y agoI was in the protest with my friend entrepreneur, tour-guide, teacher, unemployed, artist-assistant and a bartender... Special pension is only one point of many, and there are different ways to deal with it. Note that for some special pension people pay more on their wages every month, and that special pension was also a way to stay attractive on the employment market with low salary...
- privateSFacct 7y agoWith formal youth unemployment at 20% or so, plenty of young folks would take some of these friends and family jobs and retire at 52 with a pension MUCH higher than most other french workers. There's already issues finding permanent employment in france with a temporary employment crisis. https://www.ft.com/content/119c2b4c-bc0c-11e8-94b2-17176fbf93f5 https://www.ft.com/content/119c2b4c-bc0c-11e8-94b2-17176fbf9... There is a reason you need to be on the inside track to get these "bad" jobs - because MANY folks would like them.
- skitout 7y agoThat is why they can't recruit math teachers for example...
- user5994461 7y agoThere is no more shortage of math teachers than there is a shortage of developers.
