🗣Your account of living conditions and the economic crisis—Thursday, Mehr 9:

🔹The cost of 25 online sessions of a one-and-a-half-hour instructor training course (TTC) is 5,600,000 tomans. To teach each language, you need to get this certificate, and the prices depend on the institute and the instructor.

🔹From Qiyamdasht: For six months the company has laid people off and I’m unemployed. Wherever I go for a new job, they don’t accept me. I’m a tenant. When am I supposed to pay my rent? Why isn’t anyone there to help us?

🔹From Kermanshah: Even though we registered for the books and paid money starting two months ago, we still don’t have the books and they told us that no one knows when the books will arrive! Many of our classes still don’t have a teacher, and some of the books have had to be taught by unsuitable instructors.

🔹From Mashhad: Last night, for my son’s cold, I paid 2 million for a doctor’s visit and medicine.

🔹The situation for the staff of the Karaj sugar factory has become critical. For six months they haven’t received their wages and their insurance has been cut.

🔹In 1392, I bought a Persia (car) for 20 million tomans. Yesterday, I only changed the clutch plate and it cost 30 million.

🔹From Kermanshah: Today I went to the electricity office to follow up on a meter that I paid for two months ago. They asked me for 30 million tomans in “sweeteners,” in broad daylight, in front of everyone.
