The “Slag Baum” Man

The “Slag Baum” Man

A man in China decided to become a parking lot barrier (slagbaum) because he was bored with his monotonous lifestyle. He put a yellow stick on his head and acted like a real “slagbaum” by bending down when cars entered and standing up when they left. The story shows the unusual ways people can cope with the pressures and stresses of life.
