The Carpenter

“I am retired. I have been a carpenter all my life. The biggest roof I’ve ever made? 20 cubic metres of wood. I do it only for delight nowadays. I go to a workshop at 9 o’clock with two fellows I had a company with my whole life. We drink a glass of beer, have a chat and then we get down to work. Customers, who we have, are not in a hurry so we work at an unhurried pace.”

Břetislav Sobek

My name is Bretislav Sobek. I am curious and don’t understand new things. That is the reason why I ask, I write it down and post it.

I have written hundreds of emails to newspaper’s editorial offices. They have answered me once. They wrote me that if I wanted to write I should study journalism including a link to the right faculty. They said it was supposed to be the right place for me.

Others answered with a suspicion that I was a PR manager of a political party. I just wanted to inform my fellow citizens about what I think was important to them.

I applied for Journalists unions. They didn’t accept me and weren’t able to explain me why. The same went for another ten candidates.

And that’s the reason why I decided to set up my own newspaper and named myself a chief editor.
