This is how dangerous the everyday life of an inspector is

There have been two attacks on streetcar ticket inspectors in Graz in recent weeks. How dangerous is the job really on a day-to-day basis? The "Krone" accompanied a team for a morning and learned some curious facts.

Julia (name changed) yawns. The education student has been on duty since 5.45 a.m. today. Wearing a yellow jacket, black shoulder bag and gloves without fingers, she waits with her two colleagues Franz and Josip for the streetcar on line 5. It's cold but sunny - a good day, because the team has to go out even when it's snowing, raining or 35 degrees.
