Gerrie, you are in charge of this project.
What are the guys doing exactly?
-They are going to do some litter picking in the neighbourhood.
These are all people from Oosterpark who have a problem with alcohol.
They get 10 euros a day, a hot meal, and half a pouch of rolling tobacco.
And 5 beers? -Yes, and 5 beers.
Fred, aren't you having the time of your life? You're drinking beer and smoking on the job!
-It doesn't get much better than this, does it?
In what kind of job do you get to drink beer? -I don't think they exist.
They would fire you on the spot.
It's only during our breaks. -Ah, ok.
I don't think it's that bad really.
So why are you like this?
There are reasons, but you can't really say: this is why I'm an alcoholic.
Well, I've just been drinking for a really long time.
30 years all together, actually.
I grab my first beer from the fridge in the morning
-What time do you get up?
Usually somewhere between 4 or 5 in the morning.
And you feel like beer then? -Yes.
A nice beer now and then, well, I don't really see the problem.
Come on, this is stupid, you give beer to people who have a problem with alcohol!
People addicted to *** get methadone.
There are places for them to get high.
So why wouldn't you give alcoholics beer? You control the circumstances, and give
them something useful to do as well.
Do you understand why people think this is completely of the wall?
Not at all, actually. Because it isn't.
I mean, if i'd have to drink coffee all day... -That would suck. Yeah.
If you're looking for a girlfriend, perhaps we can help you.
That would be nice. -You can address the women at home.
Well, to those watching, I work for a cleaning crew,
I don't have a lot of money, but my heart is full of love. So come get some.
