My colleague Barbora Molnár pointed out an interesting new trend in the Czech Republic - the German term Kurzarbeit (working on short time) seems to have gained ground there in recent years (in step with the introduction of this economic measure). Not everybody is happy with this development, of course, and there was even a Communist MP who caused a controversy by using the slogan Kurzarbeit macht frei to protest against it. The above cartoon relates to this incident and I'm hoping to be able to give you a faithful translation next time.
