Our former and less than successful chancellor Werner Faymann obviously is a made man by now. Not only did he get an advisory job at the UN but now also a lobbying position for a major insurance company. Job description, lobbying to liberalise insurance laws at Brussels. To the detrimentary of the general population, as I'm sure.
Guy doesn't have any degree and was a party soldier for the Social Democrats for his whole working life. I can't find any international link for this, but I'm posting the German source anyway.

He's not the first one taking the fast track. Another one, a former (conservative) minister of the interior, just got released after doing time for being too openly corrupt and tumbling into the trap of some british journalist.
I understand people being fed up with all these people only being out to line their own pockets. I'm too. What I don't understand is them falling for the political snake oil vendors.

The years between 2000 and 2006 when they were in a coalition with the Conservatives are still keeping the courts busy to this very day.
