EMAIL US ON RECRUITMENT.WS@WASTESERVMALTA.COM Applicants must be in possession of an MQF Level 6 qualification in HR and Development, Social Science or Management, or an appropriate, recognised, comparable qualification approved by MQRIC, with one year experience in management. Wasteserv has been entrusted with the responsibility for organising, managing and operating integrated systems for waste management in Malta since November 2002. Our ultimate aim is to encourage people to make waste management an integral lifestyle practice. Our endless commitment towards maximising resources for the proper management of waste together with generating renewable energy has opened a new challenging chapter. In 2018, Wasteserv will be taking on new projects that will lead to further improvement in waste management, which will also help enhance the quality of life in Malta. In view of this expansion, we are looking for new team members that will form part of an ever increasing dynamic organisation. As part of our continuous growth and gearing up for the upcoming challenges, we are seeking to recruit: VACANCY CLOSING DATE FOR APPLICATIONS IS 10TH NOVEMBER 2017 "SO you want me to come to a pro- test, and then you won't even fuck- ing let me carry that?!" The setting is one of Valletta's most beloved hangouts for hipster- and-hippies and all the subcultures in between, and the man speak- ing is Wayne Flask – a spiky agent provocateur who made a name for himself through acerbic blogs and social media pages like 'Satiristan' and 'Lehen Id-Dnewwa'. The 'that' which his long, bony finger is pointing at is a concise black-and- white slogan whose philosophy has become something of a stock- in-trade rallying cry for a majority of the regulars who frequent the establishment we've picked for our interview spot. It's a sticker that says 'PN – PL – Zviluppaturi: Qazzistuna'. Flask's gripe is that the so-called Civil Society Network – one of the main organising bodies of both last week's and today's protest actions held in the wake of Daphne Caru- ana Galizia's murder – is not only banning people from carrying par- tisan placards, but 'anti-partisan' ones too. It's a gripe whose underlying con- cerns Flask has recently unspooled over the odd 300 pages or so. Kapitali, his debut novel – coming from Merlin Publishers this com- ing weekend at this year's edition of the Malta Book Festival – is, in fact, a work of political satire which speaks through a cacophony of voices, all the while being activated into angry being by one key con- cern above all: the Islands' inability to surmount the political duopoly under whose yoke we are forced to live. It's no accident that the book – which charts the journey of two Turning into human Razor-penned funnyman Wayne Flask tells TEODOR RELJIC why his debut novel, Kapitali, is more of a howl of despair than a mechanism made to tickle us into distraction
