Young was standing auction: great offer. Yanick called Honey

A young Frenchman of 24 years with two masters, one in law and other economic intelligence and business management, has announced on eBay that was put up for auction from 23 February to 4 March. Ebay has finally removed the ad.

Yanick Honey, after a training contract for eleven months, spent five months of unemployment, has conducted 20 interviews and submitted to 300 jobs without success. Points out, the young, quite rightly, that none of the measures promoted by his government (not for ours) affects these unemployed.

So you've decided to act accordingly and has offered online to the highest bidder: "I am a young graduate in times of crisis is well that my value is low, which is why I propose this great offer."

I guess parents are to be paid the Master in economic intelligence and should be proud of the boy. The supply of output: one euro. A price and a great deal, of course.

It is likely that this action could be described guerrilla marketing in the context of a "branding personal" any day discussed the matter. But the bottom line seems a little dramatic: the boundaries between work and slavery are volatilized in the uses and head of the people as the lack of job prospects takes over the life of staff.

The problem is that the action of this young plausible. It is plausible that a human being can be bought at auction as before the arrival of an Indian ship. It seems, why not that truck in search of workers at a gas station that one can observe certain hours of the morning, black seems to work for some workshops. The only difference is that the public announcement of a young person offends our sensitivity auction

I understand the withdrawal of the notice; understand that bourgeois morality can not accept this offer of a man as a slave auction. My only regret the withdrawal of the ad is that we can not prove how many entrepreneurs, bankers and corporations were willing to bid.
