The suicidal man, who previously wanted to jump into the canal, tells his rescuer, how the bad cuts in his company, to collect money on all possible occasions for colleagues and to buy expensive gifts, drove him to this act. When he wanted to escape his birthday party with termination and sick leave, he was broken down and organized a festival in the old and new company by the "dear colleagues", which almost brought him to the brink of ruin. The rescuer becomes aware of its similar situation and is ready to die with him, which in turn prevent happy circumstances. They are only up to the knees in the water.
