Chinese Are Coming
Rudi and Stane are best friends. They work in a factory together and help each other out in everyday life. One day the workers get upset by the news that their employers want to cancel their right to a lunch break. The trade unions disagree, but they cannot do anything about it: workers from China have appeared on the labor market. They are "cheap and they do not even eat lunch".
