For several years the library management Feltrinelli, now "Megastore" by the acquisition of old memories, is in the hands of managers out Bocconians by Gs. The quality of service has collapsed, the workers seem exploited without restraint. Last year I went on strike. After one year, perhaps the situation is even worse. There once was a company who depends on human resources. Where work was a pleasure. Once upon a time in fact. We spoke with a former director, recently successfully landed another job, which maintains close relations with its former dipendenti.A follow an excerpt of the interview posted on the Pile of April, n.633.L 'last year of this period, you went all over the papers for the first strike of the employees of "Libraries Feltrinelli. It was a domestic case. Many people could not understand. For many it was like going against his mother. Then it's over there. What were the problems then, as today, and because there were other strikes? To read the blog (http://effelunga.blogspot.com/) it happens all the colori.Le things have changed when you put everything in the hands of people (Giambelli, Sardo and company) from the GS. While both the old leadership, people with balls like Montroni or Antonini, was taken out. Of course, with the approval of the Feltrinelli family. The management of libraries has been equated to the commercial logic of a supermarket. Harassment, exploitation of staff, reduction of the same etc.. Not to mention the attitude strafottente.Insomma the "Libraries" were something else? Say. But Christ, stop using this historical name. Call it "The Casting of Feltrinelli"! Operators are now handled by workers. Are you a number. If you're on the balls for some reason I am sending you in Treviso. What about you? Many eventually give up. There were a lot of part-time for example. You want to work on Sunday 100 €? Oh well, I do not need. Stay at home. I take a part-time contracts to 3-4 months at 20 hours and I do 10 hours on Saturday and 10 on Sunday and it cost me less. Now they too have all been swept away by the restriction of the workforce. Must be another question. How did Feltrinelli to become what it was? Why was the sensitivity to handle beautiful books, a beautiful catalog and the will to be alive culturally. Once the "head house" I could because I had liked me a book on Eastern philosophy and the internet. This order of 30 and recommend it because it was a good book. Now that space is sold to the highest bidder. There Bruno Vespa for sale. There is this myth that associates name Feltrinelli culture, conditions for workers to be taken as an example but it is not true. We are treated like animals. So much so that their editor is Berlusconi and associated reference. Which is also fair, given the market share, but they exceeded certain limits. Some time ago, Carlo Feltrinelli came to me and asked "why there is such a strong exposure to the books of the Mondadori and Feltrinelli not seen?". I answered him "you should talk to our-your manager. Did you put them there not me. " Managers on the other hand have to push sales and Mondadori editing etc for sale. But I ask, would have taken many years ago as now all the years 1000 copies of the book sale usually? Let us take only 400 and there maybe another 600 to play with 10 good books of the small publisher. Maybe even Rizzoli. Now we are a store of Berlusconi. At the entrance of our stores are no longer the "spots" of publishers. Why do I need a brainwash those who enter are talking about Vespa etc. Once we help small publishers to grow. One Donzelli as we helped a lot, but once we were we are now smerciatori booksellers of books. Indeed, Stefan oggetti.Max
Feltrinelli, that answer that there is
The matter is currently shooting in these hours, learned of the existence, in the issue just published a critical investigation of working conditions in the chain "Feltrinelli", the prestigious publishing has responded by removing the pile from its shelves and removed some presentation of the paper already laid down in Milan and Rome. The basic thesis developed by the Director Stefani (while the writer was brought to the shoulder, a general service on the current situation of insecurity in Europe and Italy), is that the historical name of culture is now, like others, managerialization from which follows more or less systematic exploitation of those who in various ways for this name Job Title.

Feltrinelli had something of the paranoid and paradigmatic together: I would say to management. Personally I do not believe in the inner sanctum of Feltrinelli have torn his clothes: most likely, you are limited to removing a magazine fall from grace, with cold and Pavlovian managerial approach: which means pragmatic, dogmatic, impersonal.
The situation, of course, goes beyond the narrow scope of the event in question in relation to trespass, to date never specified its limits and boundaries between culture and management. Of course, given the time, the evolution of the economy, the victory of democracy over communism and, in parallel (But not automatically!), The emergence of market dynamics, it would be difficult to manage editorial and commercial-cultural realities fattesi so complex without an appropriate scientific-technical approach, the problem arises when an area of \u200b\u200binvading the substance of decisions' object decision, which dealt with the goods, which is the specific cultural goods. In a case like this comes up in all its urgency the need for brakes reasoned, thoughtful, but still, between what is discussed and the figures, rising superstructure, treat him.
More specifically, it is not true that all goods are fungible for the purposes of the market, and that every manager (whatever that class is now inflated means today) is itself competent to handle any type of product. We are not to stretch the soup with the usual drama of the constraints imposed on a paper regarded as a dissident, because at this rate you end up with no escape nell'autocompiacimento of victimhood, of martyrdom, of censorship, of heretics by profession. Each draw the consequences he believes are faced with a situation like this that concerns us: we are just here, stop that removing a magazine that deals with current affairs, news, events related to art and culture, is not (can not be) removed from the catalog as a brand of mineral water or phones. Not only because it involves the delicate, fragile - for consistency and strength - of the views expressed within. But also and perhaps mainly, because a vehicle wider cultural denied a charge equivalent to not so much on the sufferer, but on who receives the usual course of that vehicle, and can not find it there. Feltrinelli could have sent a note of protest or statement or to respond to the investigation undertaken, could also invite representatives of the magazine to a public debate, maybe locally, maybe with facts to refute what is stated in the service "indicted": that none of these options have been taken, something will say on this, we leave the interpretation to the reader (indeed, no longer reads).
Another thing, then, must be stopped, for the sake of truth and the respect due to the words. Some have argued that the decision to remove a newspaper Feltrinelli who became victim to a fully democratic choice and as such must be respected: and, so far, we're in the tautology, which never travels relieved from the burden of trivia: at home Each does what he believes. The speech, however, is no longer standing where, it is in dispute, an array censorship: this matrix is. Why is one thing to reject a head start, as it is incompatible with the ideological and cultural spectrum normally offered (which is pretty comprehensive Feltrinelli), another account and remove it out of the blue, that newspaper, for personal reasons. If this is not censorship, I do not know what else is.
