Viennese Barbara D. lost her job because of Corona. Now she is training as a nurse at the technical college – and asks for a student card.
Thousands of Vienna have lost their jobs because of Corona. One of them is Barbara D. “It was a shock at first. But I definitely didn’t want to give up. Since our politicians keep saying that there are not enough nursing staff, I thought that would suit me well,” said the Viennese. The 54-year-old is now in the third semester of the bachelor’s degree in health and nursing at the Vienna University of Applied Sciences. .
“That’s discrimination”
“I never wanted to be a burden to anyone and I am happy when I can start in my new job. But the current price increases are of course a problem for me with my limited budget. As an FH student I therefore have to apply for a semester card requested,” said Ms. D. Wiener Linien. The cheaper ticket is only available up to age 26. “A reduction for students exceeding the federal age limit would not be justified.” Ms. D. should therefore contact the Ministry of Mobility.
wer hats invented?
The “Krone” asked the relevant Ministry of Climate Protection, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology and got a surprising answer: “Since it is about education matters, I can refer you to the Ministry of Education. The colleagues there will be happy to help you.” .” So now we go to the ministry that is not responsible, but a quick solution is not in sight.
