Today at BBC4 I hear about about "job guarantee" in Eastern Germany. #berlinwall
How do we call it, when you are given a job but then your passport is taken, you cannot leave and what you are paid merely allows survival...?
@nikolal In 90's I was 17 and worked as an industrial alpinist to save for to travel Dolomites. 10 years earlier they just wouldn't let me go because we were property of the socialist state.

Or they give you passport but you can't use it since you don't have money for traveling?
